3.5 great | chrisdude | April 22nd 14 | One of Metric's biggest flaws, for me, is that their albums have too much filler. Fortunately this album is far more consistent than most of their later work, with tracks ranging from melodic synth, introspective numbers and even quite poppy tracks. If you missed / disregarded this album, like Metric themselves did, you'd be poorer for it as a Metric fan.

3.5 great | soldier0cross | June 28th 12 | Interesting to see a bands roots after seeing the fully grown adult tree that they came to be. Obviously metric at a more experimental stage trying to find their sound. But undoubtedly it's them. Haine's vocals make it clear of that as well as the style of the music altogether. I always really liked Rock Me Now for some reason. Great song, Soft Rock star as well has become one of my favorite songs by them over the years as well. rIt's a bit slower by Metric standards, but it's still nice music. A good album for any Metric fan.

4.0 excellent | jeremologyy | June 27th 07 | I think this is a good review... of your favorite tracks. You should have talked about a couple more tracks than the ones that are your favorites. Like, talked about one song you don't think is quite up to par. Or how two of the better tracks were cut for this release - Parkdale, and Torture Me.
That aside, I agree with you mostly. My favorite tracks is On The Sly, always has been, and I love White Gold and Hardwire. This is a fantastic album, and I THINK I read somewhere that their new album has this album's feel to it.
