Sep 5, 2013Inevitably I look back on the good times with Siouxsie and the Banshees. Of course this is not the same, but it's so good if someone makes you think of other great artists.

Oct 27, 2014for me, its not a completely perfect album. Sometimes the vocals feel a little swallowed up in all the loud, thick layers of sound, making the tracks feel less tidy and clear, but otherwise, the majority of this album is great. And a proof Chelsea is successfully pushing herself forwards in her music.

Feb 15, 2017This album is so beautiful and soul touching. Sometimes, if you even don't share the same emotion that the song is uttering, you can share an empathic feeling with the singer, with the instrumental, with the lyrics. Absolutely exuberant and gorgeous.
