seantAug 12, 2005newly discovered vocal harmonies and synth lines add to Q and not U's "post-punk" DC sound well.

NelsonBDec 3, 2004An excellent, different offering from the post-punk-dance masters of Q and not U. This songs destroy live, and the cd is plenty fine, and far more different than the other crap that's been polluting these genre's of late...

leemNov 12, 2004Power requires, no, screams above a surging cresting instrumental wave to be listened to amidst the rest of the musical dirge that populates ipods everywhere.

Most of the songs on Power are quite impressive, and a good number are excellent, but there are some songs that were probably better left in the studio.
-
Even when there are plenty of other bands working in a similar style, Q and Not U remain more distinctive and harder to classify than many of their peers, which makes Power an exciting album and proof that the band has variety and vitality to spare.

Power is, to say the least, hardly the collection of hard rockers that No Kill and Different Damage were. But with its lilt melodies, Davis' downplayed role, and the band's admission that, hey, a bassline here or there couldn't hurt, Power boasts a cohesion and distinct identity missing from Q & Not U's two previous albums.
