Fugu might not be the most original band here but, aesthetically, they are extremely pleasing.... An enjoyable pop album.
-
Grand and flirting at the same time with the ridiculous -- the kind of disc to listen to when you are in love.
-
The WireConsistently entertaining. [#215, p.69]
-
Alternative PressShould please sophisticated pop connoisseurs. [Nov 2001, p.85]
-
Although its quality and creativity never falter, as Fugu 1 goes on it becomes a little redundant.
-
MojoAlluringly odd. [Mar 2002, p.112]
-
A fairly nice little slab of French Anglo-pop, and pleasant reading accompaniment if you can reach the skip button from where you're sitting.
