4.0 out of 5 stars Je t'aime...moi non plus, December 4, 2008

By	Ostrakos "ostrakos" (This town needs an enema) - See all my reviews

I bought this on a whim, and I couldn't be more thrilled with how it turned out. Along with LTM's reissue of Blurt's The Factory Recordings, it's definitely my favourite release of 2008 (although I now see it was released overseas 2 years ago). There are a few songs that bring to mind dance-y, early 80s synth pop, but most of the songs sound more like they would fit in quite well with early Factory records stuff or Belgium's Les Disques du Crepuscule. An amazing collection and you shouldn't hesitate to pick it up.

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing......, September 8, 2008

By	A. Salgado (San Diego) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Synth Pop, New Wave has always had a haunting,Futuristic Impact upon Listening At least for me.This Album proves how music of today sucks Radiohead does not match This kind of sound and Talent that is presented here.Let this music transport you back when boys were not afraid to be Flamboyant,and wear make up,let yourself be taken to the flourcent dance floors, this album surely is a piece of great art and i highly recommend.defintely a album for high taste....Also recommend Kraftwerk,and Visage...Enjoy........

4.0 out of 5 stars Novelty but good nonetheless, May 3, 2008

By	eric - See all my reviews

Yeah... great novelty although 'Game and Performance' by Deux is truly great. It's one of those CDs that is amazing before you get it, it's great at a first listening, adds to your underground hipster status for about a week or so, and then fizzles out. Although every once in a while, on shuffle a song from it comes up and you're like... whoa! this is cool what the heck is this from and it's typically from this CD.
