    I heard the excellent 'Northern Lights' and knew I had to check out this band. I was pleasantly surprised that the rest of the album stacks up pretty well! This is an incredibly cohesive and consistently good album, bonus tracks included. Kate Boy sure do love those pounding beats, which makes this a perfect album for boosting your energy.

    Though it does wear its influences a little to clearly on its sleeve to be truly original, the end result is a wonderful homage to their heroes and full of some of the best pop to come out of Scandinavia in recent years.

    The demanding nature of One--a persisting, unrelenting jolt of energy--gets tiring after a while, but there’s no doubt that the highs are incredibly high.

    Where the group excels at assembling all the bones of a good pop song, One's lyrical content is broad even by those same standards.
