Nicola's Best

"Although different from some of his past work this album really shines. It's simply excellent and continues to grow on you in different ways the more you listen to it. I keep going back to it from time to time and it really is a classic already. If you like Indo do not skip this great 2CD release."

The usual blah!

"I used to like this band, very much. They started off as a sort of French Duran Duran poppy band, that later evolved into a French Depeche Mode with darker sounding themes and sounds. Unfortunately, you don;t have to listen too closely to notice that all their tunes begin to sound alike. Even as my French is a joke, I can almost make out the way their songs go at first listen, as the grooves are well worn in their capacity to compose new music. As far as the lyrics or vocals go, same thing, and equally as disposable. I will be disposing of most of my Indochine CDs in the near future, but I will still keep my Duran Duran and DM albums. Their best albums? "Danceteria" and "Nuits Intimes". Alice & June is just repackaged, rehash with some frills as consolation prize."
