    This is probably the most adventurous musical journey of Garnier's life.
  2. Mojo

    It's a soundtrack for rainswept, sodium-lit backstreets. [Feb 2005, p.101]

  3. Almost Cool
    60
    A varied and interesting album that is also a bit hit-or-miss.
  4. Junkmedia
    30
    Garnier displays an ability to approximate several genres, yet betrays his fellow travelers by failing to infuse any of them with individuality or innovation.

    Excellent departure from Mr. Garniers usual work, a trip through the bizarra and trippy, where AFX meets Dr. Patterson
