    Lovebox rarely disappoints. [24/31 Jan 2003, p.100]

    With Lovebox, they do another about-face, dirtying up and slowing down their song-structured house tracks into a grimy soul/funk/house/hip-hop amalgam. [March 2003, p.94]
  3. Mojo
    80
    A slick, clever and diverse set of populist dance and digi-rock songs. [Nov 2002, p.110]

    Positively dripping with crude funk. [Mar 2003, p.95]
  5. Lovebox veers more toward the rock and soul spectrum than previous efforts.
  6. 'Lovebox' doesn't quite scale Vertigo's dizzy heights, but it'll be perfectly at home both in clubs and in your lounge.
  7. Blender

    Similar inventiveness [to that on debut album 'Vertigo'] has been markedly absent from the London duo's subsequent work, and sadly, Lovebox continues the trend. [#14, p.136]

    Not one song that disappoints. Madder and Easy being the most memorable of the bunch.

    Not their best, but still a lot of fun to listen to. If you bought this and enjoy it, you should check out Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub).
