Good rock and roll with great saxophone as well.

"This was Idle Cure's best album. They can go hard and they can go soft, both effectively. The added saxophone is something they lacked on other albums. The lead singers voice was better on their original debut than later. (this album) "Breakaway" is great, but "Come Back to Me" is a decent love song also. They're really isn't a bad song on the whole CD. True, you only get 8 songs, but they are worth it."

AND AFTER WE THOUGHT IT COULD GET NO BETTER...

"What I love about Idle Cure is their never ending commitment of giving serious and in depth warnings about the things of this world that are fleeting. And also their uncanny knack of touching on the weaknesses we share as a whole race. The song "Pray" has to be my favourite Idle song ever, this track proves you can put a hard message with hard music! This track is then followed by another awesome heavy "It's No Fun Anymore" wiht brilliant vocals by Steve Shannon! And also the brilliant ballads like "Come Back to me" from Idle Cure. This song is an amzingly beautiful love song! Enough to make you cry. These two albums are incredible. Idle cure never fail to deliver potent albums each time. It is a massive shame they have disbanded! COME BACK!"
