Q MagazineEmily Haines remains a commanding frontwoman, but where once she railed against war and consumerism, here she sticks to wishy-washy reflections on love and life. [Jun 2009, p.127]
-
Fantasies is, rather unfortunately but perhaps not surprisingly, just another Metric album.
-
While everything could be trimmed, Jimmy Shaw's razor guitar in 'Sick Muse' and 'Front Row' keeps things edgy.
-
While it continues Metric's new-wave/loud-rock amalgam, the songs themselves fail to leave much of an impact.

CAJul 25, 2009One of the best releases of 2009. A perfect blend of indie rock and electropop. Love more and more with each listen. Not a skipper here.

AlexWMay 25, 2009This album is refined to the best songs. Like "Live it Out" but more refined, with a tuned up "Old World Underground..." sound.
