4 out of 5 stars Pretty Sweet.......2007-05-27

This is a great danc-y album in keeping with your typical "Faint" sound. There are some great songs on here (Southern Belles, I'm looking at you) but there are overall more low points on this disc than there were on Danse Macabre. Certainly, this record is dancy and hot, but overall I'd rather listen to Danse all the way through than this one.

The Faint has become my band of choice for those days that I just feel like dancing in public to. Starting with my first listen to Danse Macabre, I realized I could not ignore them. I've finally realized I needed to own WFB even though I had previously listened to it before, and I am relishing in its gloomy synth candy noise. Beginning with the eerie violin in Desperate guys, continuing to Paranoiaattack, and winding down at Symptom Finger you just are atatcked with these excellently crafted trance-infused indie rock melodies. How great can it be? Try it, as well as Danse Macabre, you wont be dissapointed.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome album!.......2006-12-02

I absolutely loved this album by the Faint. The music is sooo dancy and punchy. It's what typifies the Faint. I just wanted to comment, however, that the album cover and the name of the song "Wet from Birth" - uh, can we say . . . Nirvana?!! It reminds me of the In Utero album with its abundance of feti sprinkled throughout. I wouldn't say the Faint sounds like them, but I guess a fetus on an album cover will remind me of Nirvana for a while.

4 out of 5 stars Trippy lyrics.......2006-04-16

All I have to say is the lyrics on this album, coupled with the synthesizers and morose, industrial sound, are pretty awesome. Awesome in the way that I wouldn't listen to this album in the dark, much like their last one "Dance Macabre". "Birth" is definetley my favorite song, mostly because it goes through the entire process of conception, gestation, and birth using scary metaphors and scientific terminology, making what many call the "miracle of life" sound like a weird paracite-horror film. anyone who can do that in a song I could also dance to is worthwhile.

5 out of 5 stars Worth every penny.. One of my favorite bands!.......2005-11-05

Dance Macabre is one of my favorite albums, 5 stars all the way. I like every single song on that album which never happens with me. I don't have that same feel with this album. However Paranoiattack is one of my favorite Faint songs. 80's feel great bass.. This album is a must buy!
