cut the dramatcs, won't you?.......2005-04-06

Are we concerned with esthetical value and practical applicability of this (a household, a partytime, a relaxer, an ad-hoc music) - or just the delivery? I accept this album as a social / age-group marker, a nod to staying tuned and keeping up with society. The bunch are urban, picturesque and mixed, the arrangements between establishment pop and white r'n'b (someone sniffed disco?) - but from what I saw live I gather they can't "read" and communicate onstage. Next, they carry no message. They're no aged, retro and grotesque Sweet who still stir audiences with sheer teenybop energy. I can only wish this band adapted "Blockbaster" next time around to justify the stars.

Simply amazing album.......2005-03-02

I first saw this group on the Brit Awards this year and immediately went out and bought the album. It was the best album I've bought in a long time. A great mix of different styles all with a tongue in cheek attitude which is a pleasant surprise. This is a definite must-buy album for anyone that loves 70s and 80s pop music.

Awesome.......2005-02-24

If you are a fan of the 70s and 80s, run don't walk to purchase this disc. This is one of the best discs I have purchased in a long, long time. It plays constantly on my CD player. Buy it, you won't be disppointed. And at the same time buy the DVD concert. It's a blast.

Best Album Ever.......2004-12-24

This is my new favorite album and possibly the only album I am ever going to listen to again (ever). Seriously though, if I was being sent to the moon tomorrow and NASA was only letting me take 5 cds, this would have to be one of them and I've only just heard of these guys today. (Where have I been I do not know.) All kidding aside, these guys are new but they have huge potential, considering that almost all of the songs are good versus your usual 1 or 2 good and 8 or 9 filler and if you don't buy it immediately it's your loss.

This is not for Pink Floyd fans.......2004-11-24

Look - they have a cover of Comfortably Numb which apparently is some sacrosanct Pink Floyd track. In my opinion the original version is fine - self indulgent progressive rock is another description. The Scissor Sisters have managed to turn this into one of the most pumping disco tunes I've heard in a VERY long time. So - if you like Pink Floyd and don't like disco then you need to be elsewhere. If you like big disco beats this is for you.

The rest of the album is fabulous as well - for some reason the Elton John fans don't seem to be up in arms about the nods towards Reg's music, nor do I see people berating the sisters for not quite sounding like Frankie/Lipps Sync/Patrice Rushen/Brothers Gibb.
