3.5 great | sickmoon | March 31st 11 | Nothing And Nowhere was the beggining for a type o sonority that maybe TBM maked, behind the synth and the escapism (that is nothing new) the band shows a interesting creativty when they mixes goth-fantasy-poetry with pop-rock-new wabe type of sound, they're not gothic, i think they are The Birthday Massacre a unlabel stuff with magical songs and purple dreams.

0.0 | Cusman | June 7th 14 | I started to listen to TBM out of bore, and I was really surprised by this band. Except for Broken, which has stronger tones, all the songs of this album make me literally dream and lose my mind. This album sounds really dark, but not for this depressed. TBM have original and unique sounds (I appreciate electronic music, but isn't my favourite kind), and I think the way they mix pop-rock with gothic themes and atmosphere is awesome. Nothing & Nowhere is one of the first albums I have kept entirely in my iPod, and still one of my favourite works ever.

3.5 great | Britch2tiger | February 10th 16 | The music that Mazzy Star could be if she decided to outlay a synth-heavy, gothic rock orientation w/ an industrial feel. Certainly no Chelsea Wolfe, but this comes pretty close.

2.0 poor | MadBaron | April 25th 11 | I must admit that The Birthday Massacre have an interesting style: Dream-like atmosphere,
EBM synths combined with heavy guitars but unfortunately this album is a poor showcase of
what would be great musical ideas. I found that all of the tracks sound suspiciously alike,
and that the vocalist really has no passion or power to her voice. The lyrics sound like the
poetry of a Goth high school student with overwhelming, and overstated, contempt for the
"popular kids" and who's been listening to a little too much Switchblade Symphony.

2.0 poor | FashionistState | May 30th 10 | Really...The Birthday Massacre? Is that -really- a fitting name for music that could send me to sleep? Maybe it's because I was born a decade too late, so I can't appreciate the nostalgic value. Maybe it's because I'm used to hearing so much real post-industrial. This album does not deserve such praise, especially from people who actually think this is industrial (no, not even post-industrial, but real, experimental - ha! - industrial.). Elitist I may be, but surely some of us can see through the recycled melodies, the generic synthesized sounds and the piled-on 'creepy-but-cute'? I'm sure these people are lovely in real life, but they just don't have the imagination - or, better said, the 'right' sort of imagination - to make some good music in the genre of 'synth-rock'.
