Album Reviews
Rolling Stone (11/27/03, p.98) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...A sound that is part Pixies, part New Order, and demonstrates a truly elegant sense of pacing and development..." Q (11/03, p.123) - 4 stars out of 5 - "...It's Stellastarr#'s originality that really dazzles. This assured, intense record heralds the emergence of a major force..." Mojo (12/03, p.113) - 3 stars out of 5 - "It's messy, seductive stuff: go lose yourself."

CMJ (9/22/03, p.4) - "...This is one of those records--the kind that establishes its own reality, sets its own rules, invites you in, and then never lets you go..."
