Wow this is perverse and sleazy. Like a cabaret I guess. The record navigates through jazzy, technoid and soul new wave. It's a sonic peep-show, the soundtrack of a strip-tease video. It's disgusting. It's still candid at times (fortunately). Cool synthpop that however sometimes fails to entirely embark me on its lewd journey.

A truly underrated group, sadly ignored due to the monumental success of their admittedly excellent hit single "Tainted Love". I was one of the people who wrote them off as another New Wave one hit wonder, until I listened to this album. I was surprised to find that it was a very tongue-in-cheek, sleazy and brash brand singing about late-night encounters with strangers in porno theatres and... Um... Sex Dwarves corrupting dancing queens at the disco. There are even some more introspective moments lamenting the monotony of the party-life and the fickleness of live audiences delivered in the most mocking blase tone possible. What makes this album especially fun is the fact that it doesn't really take itself seriously. It is at times a bit gratingly simplistic and tinny, but still a fun ride nonetheless.

One of the most unique acts in early 80s synth-pop, Soft Cell had a flair for creating sleazy, sinful slices of dark electronic music. If all you've heard is 'Tainted Love' then you're really missing out.
