    Electric Six make junk music for junk times, and they’d be nigh-unbearable if they weren’t so much fun.

    A whip-smart, 13-song satire on FM-radio machismo and lyrical cliches. [Nov 2006, p.140]

    Unfortunately, despite some nice tunes, the formula seems a little, well, formulaic. [11 Nov 2006, p.43]

    They've turned their backs on disco and privileged operatic rock while retaining their--ahem!--inimitable sense of fun. [Dec 2006, p.106]

    catchy, melodic,classic,what more could you want as good as any album ive heard this year. Infected Girls and I Buy the Drugs deserve the success Gay Bar and High Voltage got.… Collapse

    A very solid album from the detroit rockers. Look out in particular for: Rubber Rocket Germans In Mexico Mr. Woman.

    Would not say it is as good as their last two albums, but I still like it none the less.
