5.0 out of 5 stars Let's Have a Miniature Secret Black Celebration, November 23, 1999

This is an excellent CD. Picture Depeche Mode with Peter Murphy on lead vocals. Admittedly, my introduction to this group was hearing "Once in a Lifetime" at a club off their most recent album. POPKILLER was the only one I could find. Even here in NYC, I only found one record store, Generation Records that had any of their CDs. The music is reminiscent of Murphy's early work on "If the World Should Fail to Fall Apart" and "Love Hysteria." They also have Depeche Mode's penchant for disturbing lyrics set to a dark but sometimes playful synthpop style. They've been around for a while but I think they're only just coming into their own and may be a force to reckon with in the first decade of the year 2000.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great! but this band is hard to come by, August 13, 1999

I heard this band in a club in Gainesville and decided to check out one of their cds. This is the one I found and it is a great cd. It would be a good one to check out if you want to check this band out for the first time. I just wish this band's cds wouldn't be so hard to find.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excelent synth-pop music, March 28, 2000

This is a good synth-pop album. The overall style is not really "modern" (another bands like Alphaville and Depeche Mode had almost same kind of music at their begining), but as I can see, their music style is very, very distinctive from any other band, specially for the leading vocal. My favorite song is "Tender days".
