    If it were condensed down to one disc, it would appeal to more than the most devout.

    The best moments on this double CD are those which foreground Valerie Trebeljahr's sighingly lovely vocals. [Aug 2005, p.120]

    With a delight/track tally of about one in four, this compilation won't make Lali Puna a lot more fans (nor does it deserve to), but it will keep their fey indie followers convinced of their own dreaminess whilst providing the illusion of alternative cred and strangeness.

    Although the remixes get a little tiresome, the "new" content is quite good.
