    This is a disappointing album considering the producer was Livisik who produced the stellar Young Galaxy album "Shapeshifting" and that The Mary Onettes' last album "Islands" was awesome. Pretty boring album overall and complete change of style from the previous album.

    The songs so consistently mine the same material that it starts feeling like a portrait of our era as a deeply sad one, where lost souls abound.

    Phillip Ekstrom's vocals echo the tortured moan of Robert Smith with a trace of Ian McCulloch's attitude, but he never manages to find his own voice. Except for the implied reggae pulse on "Blues," neither does the band. [No. 96, p.56]

    The album is an undoubtedly fine affair. One just sometimes wishes Ekström might cheer up a bit
