KateBJun 10, 2006I love this album and don't know how people can slate it as badly as they have. I agree with the majority, and I love the way that Ana Matronic and Jake swap vocals in songs like Filthy/Gorgeous.

JamesFMay 2, 2004An absolute surprise for me. Listening to "Take Your Mama Out" on MTV i thought 'wow this is great'. I brout the album expecting it to be average with the 1 good first single. However, every song on this album is a stunner. Absolutely Fabulous!

JackJMay 8, 2004There is no album better at the moment! A new band, with new talent! A new ERA is coming and Scissor Sistors are right at the centre of it!!

JeremyBAug 1, 2004I think this album is great from start to finish, it's something i've never heard before. Very different and the lyrics and poetic yet understandable (except i don't understand how "Take Your Mama" is a song about coming out totally). I do think it's one of the top cd's to come out in 2004.

AntonyMMar 18, 2005I never understood the whole posters on the wall obession of fanatical fans to one particular group. Now I know! The sissor sisters in my opinion is the greatest group of the 20th centery. I can listen to this album 2-3 times a day not grow tired of it. Infectious lyrics, up tempo beats and strong messages its all here folks.

DavidWJul 19, 2004Fantastic debut record. This is what Elton John sounded like when he was good. CShelCShore is absolutely correct in his review. Listen to this album when you drive cross-country and it will blow your mind.

AaronLJul 27, 2004One of the most exciting albums I have heard in years. A unique amalgamation of sounds and styles that can bring to mind Elton John, the Bee Gees, Loggins & Messina, and others without sounding imitative. Brilliant.

SarahBAug 22, 2004I love this CD. I bought it for "Laura", little suspecting the other gems I would find. It combines catchy choruses and effortlessly funky instrumentals, making it an album where all the song have stuck in my head at some time or another. From the very very fun song "Music Is The Victim" to the melancholy ballady type thing "Return to Oz" I just think it's brilliant.

[An] intensely enjoyable record, which plays like a singles collection.
-
Scissor Sisters' debut is a brilliant ode to a musical era defined by vapid decadence and disposable dance tracks.

MojoSpread over a whole CD, there is some worryingly featureless stuff. [Apr 2004, p.102]
