5 out of 5 stars La sublime magia de Catatonia.......2005-07-25

Un gran album altamente recomendable, desde la fantastica interpretacion de Cerys, hasta la gran variedad de estilos que repersenta, catatonia podria estar en la cuerda floja entre los Cardigans y Bjork...
Sin dudas su disco final es su obra mayor, lamentablemete catatonia ya no existe, y lamentablemete ya no hay mas discos magicos como este...

5 out of 5 stars Poignantly, the last from a great pop band.......2003-03-13

I have all Catatonia records, and I have to say this is more mature and sophisticated than the others. Cerys never sounded better. Such a pity they disbanded. But I am ready for Cerys' solo career - she's got such a unique voice and personality, and now that she's married and healthy again, I'm sure we will hear more great stuff from her.

5 out of 5 stars The most amazing album I have ever bought........2003-03-09

Paper Scissors Stone is the most amazing album I have ever listened to. The mix of exceptionally powerful tracks with more rocky influences goes to make a truly exceptional and utterly brilliant collection of fantastic tunes. I don't think there is a single song to complain about on that album.

2 out of 5 stars "A small number of worthy songs".......2002-04-10

Post-Brit-pop band Catatonia's return to the music industry after 18 months isn't what we'd call a welcome one. Their latest CD `Papers Scissors Stone' seems very reminiscent of solo [another singer] work..., but [other singer] always seemed best when he was performing in a duet with someone, or with [other band]... The album, however was extremely liked by the British public, especially by that of Prince Charles, so how can we not like Charles' favourite band?...As for the actual CD, there are some pleasant tracks, along with some hideous ones. The single "Stone by Stone" stands out as the best on the album, with an addictive chorus line and eerie backing vocals combined with superb percussion by Pablo. But then again, the turbulent and bothersome "Mother of Misogyny" will most likely give you a migraine with its repetitive vocals and overtly psychedelic guitar. It does lead onto the excellent "Is Everybody Here on Drugs?" which starts off with a very leisurely guitar riff and heads into classic Catatonia: gloomy, depressing but at the same time inspiring. Both "Immediate Circle" and "Blues Song" seem to try and recreate this, but come off as extremely dark and angry, something never heard in Catatonia, and something that's best left never heard. In the end, `Paper Scissors Stone' has a small number of worthy songs included, but most are annoyingly monotonous. Only for the die-hard Catatonia fans.

5 out of 5 stars The best and last.......2002-01-20

What a great album!! Too bad they broke up. This album was probably their best, and showed what a great band they were. I think if they didn't split, there would've been many more great albums from them. The whole album showcased the witty lyric writting, and the wide range of pop-rock Catatonia are capable of. Godspeed and Stone By Stone were pretty dramatic. Cerys' voice was great singing this kind of dramatic songs. Immediate Circle and Is Everybody Here On Drugs were the fun pop-rock songs that will make you sing along with them. Shore Leave just gave me the lonely feeling after traveling from places to places. Get this CD, it'll make you laugh and make you cry.
