This is Dada's finest hour. As good as Puzzle is, this one tops it, with more exploration & mystery mixed with great hooks, and a slightly more "live band" feel. The guitar tones are incredible. Because of its commercial failure, they spent the rest of their career trying to produce hits. This is the only record they released where they didn't concern themselves with what the people might want. The bonus tracks also feature the excellent "I'm Feeling Nothing". If you're a fan of guitar playing or 60s/70s-influenced rock of the 90s, don't miss this one.

A good album -- but not as good as Puzzle

"This is good album. Dada are a tight outfit that produce melodic, intelligent, original music. This album does not reach the sublime heights of their previous album, Puzzle , nor are the songs as memorable -- however it is still a very good album...better than most groups could dream of producing."
