CD ReviewsPerhaps the greatest New Wave album of the eighties. 12/16/1998 (5 out of 5 stars) "This album is what eigthies New Wave is all about to me. The sythetic but melodious sounds of this Band were at their peak with this Album. Later Albums were very good, but never quite got the same response from me. I have owned this masterpiece on Album and CD. I am now forced to buy it again because my previous copy was taken from my vehicle. I am not even thinking twice about replacing it. It is a must own." Best dutch "Weltschmerz" ever made 10/19/1998 (5 out of 5 stars) "A small room filled with (too much) people all dressed in black, a few lights , the sweet smell of grass and beer and "A Day" from Xymox ordering everybody to "Wave". I spent many a night in such an environment dancing to this song which for me still is one of the greatest "New wave" songs of the eighties. But not only "A Day" (together with "7th time" defenitely the most danceable) is great. Other songs like "Stranger" or "Stumble and Fall" were ideal to accompany me through many a candle-lit night were I dwelt in self-pitty or "depression". Ten years later I still can get back to the feelings I had in those days listening and dancing to Xymox. That can only mean (Clan of) Xymox has to be a great album....."
