    A taut, economic album with emotional songs at its heart. Yep, we're as surprised as you.

    For an international pop act on a major label, this is a daring album. [May 2005, p.109]

    The lyrics are clumsy, the synth-pop melodies bland and the genius long gone.

    my first exposure to fischerspooner was through a photo in some magazine of either fischer or spooner, i can't remember, in vampire drag make-up, parading aournd on stage with a mic stand. i initially brushed them off as some gimmick laden, style-over-substance flash in the pan. but this album is exceptional- dancable, spacey pop- and might be my favorite of the year.… Expand
