    'Lovebox' doesn't quite scale Vertigo's dizzy heights, but it'll be perfectly at home both in clubs and in your lounge.

    A stew of funk noir and mashed-up rhythms--a little too mashed-up at times. [Dec 2002, p.130]

    Lovebox takes them much too far down the path of production gloss, right on into the field of bland MOR electronica.

    Groove Armada continue to have mislaid that sparkledust. [Dec 2002, p.105]

    Similar inventiveness [to that on debut album 'Vertigo'] has been markedly absent from the London duo's subsequent work, and sadly, Lovebox continues the trend. [#14, p.136]

    Not one song that disappoints. Madder and Easy being the most memorable of the bunch.

    Oh my! This rocks! Soulful songs and grooving tracks. I would highly recommend it!

    Not their best, but still a lot of fun to listen to. If you bought this and enjoy it, you should check out Goodbye Country (Hello Nightclub).
