  1. By returning to the drawing board they used to create Ego War, Dinsdale and Franks have created a bigger, better version of their all-inclusive dance-pop/hip-hop.

    Good guilty pleasure music. [Oct 2005, p.76]
  3. For a genre that once sounded astonishingly futuristic, it is quite remarkable how tired and old house sounds now.

    I agree that they try to do much, too many styles crammed into one album but I found it a thoroughly enjoyable listen. I bought it on the strength of their first album and this didn't disappoint. Expand
