4 out of 5 stars Outstanding Cover .......2005-05-05

This MCD features the simply fantastic cover of Kraftwerk's "The Model". Lush and terrifically programmed, former singer Kristin Buckman's breathy vocals make this one a real classic, infinitely deserving of club play.

The uptempo Simulator Mix of "Defeatist" is far superior to the original version. Very similiar to Olive. The Black Cat Mix and the System 22 Mix while interesting, slow the tempo down a bit too much. "Lost Again" is ok as well.

Buy this for "The Model" and the Simulator Mix of "Defeatist" and check out the other tracks every so often.

5 out of 5 stars Lush Electronic Synthpop for this and the Next Decade...........2002-09-23

A very nice single from a two member group. Much in the same realm as La Floa Maldita and Olive. The music and choice of sounds are top notch. Excellent programming and engineering on a debut. The main programmer could easliy match wits with the likes of William Orbit. Truly a band to watch out for!
