    Everything inside the album, the album cover, song titles, and music itself, is incredibly creepy, yet it's marvelous. I have to hear other "paper chase" album now!!!

    This is definitely a solid album and another great addition by The Paper Chase. The lyrics are amazing, as always. I love it.

    The Paper Chase seem to recycle the same stuff over and over. Except now, the music doesn't sound as fresh and exciting as hide the kitchen knives. A disappointment, the band refuses to evolve every release sounds the same.

  1. Presents more of the same disconcerting, cacophonous, yet strangely melodic and catchy music that always seems to find frontman John Congleton on the verge of going absolutely insane.

    The whole glorious mess creates a dramatic Wagnerian opera that's (barely) held together by Congleton's yelping. [Aug 2006, p.206]
  3. It's a well-constructed and performed album that sounds great on the stereo.
