Soulful, Frenetic, Moody, and Polished Just Enough

"You might hesitate like I did to spend the money to buy this import album without hearing it first. Although expensive, this is well worth the money. This album has the same type of musical and emotional variety that "Without You I'm Nothing" has. It is ragged and frenzied sometimes, and other times moody and slow. If you like several songs on "Without You I'm Nothing", then you will love this album. The production is not overdone, so it still feels "real".The limited edition packaging is the coolest I've ever seen, with foil printing on black cardboard. It opens by some clever internal gear mechanism, so when you pull on the right side the left side slides out as well.There is a hidden song hidden after the 12th song. It is 4 minutes long, and quite good. So really there are 13 songs on the disc."
Placebo's best

"A masterpiece-Placebo's very best album. Every Bowie/Placebo/Suede fan should own this."
