"Deliciously creepy, way before its time aternative rock classic.... British new wave dominates, with similarities to David Bowie, Roxy Music, The Police, and of course the 77s.... Lyrically deep and brilliant... an avant garde masterpiece. -RadRockers.com

"Empty Orchestra Track" is instrumental.

"Those familiar with Scott's singular ouvre are well aware of his status as one-of-a-kind visionary. His expansive, evocative lyrics are supported by music that's alternately rocking and dreamily atmospheric, often venturing successfully into exotic stylistic territory." -Scott Shinder.

"A uniquely gifted musical poet? One thing you cannot do with Steve Scott is categorise him." -Peter Banks, After the Fire.
