Good album but get the REMASTERED version
This is more of an FYI type of thing. There is a Remastered Version of this cd here on Amazon with two extra bonus tracks with Ronnie Montrose. They are Previously Unreleased Instrumental versions of the songs Security and Television. The Anti-m web site has more details.
Anti-m positively negative
This review was sent to the anti-m.com web site and we were given permission to post it here
Three years on and we find our heroes back in the
studio, this time toning down the quirky sense of
humour, and going for a more sensible seventeen
tracks and keeping the narrative out of the window
altogether. So, it starts off with a song that bizarrely
mixes D.Mode style
synths, drums and vocals with a biting electric
guitar lead courtesy of none other than Ronnie
Montrose, who also contributes some stirring
guitar work on three further tracks, while guitarist
Steve Weber, whose influences I am reliably informed
are Fripp/Holdsworth,
contributes electric guitar to most of the other
tracks, while the main duo behind the band remain
as Ruston Slager on lead vocals and keyboards, with
John Wardlaw on keyboards, lead vocals and guitar.
With six instrumental and eleven songs, it's a strange
mix of music that mixes the likes of Human
League/D.Mode/Heaven 17styles with some
hot electric guitar work in there too, giving it
quite a unique feel, and if you're into that style
and era of songs, only with less pop, more atmosphere
and overall stronger instrumentally, then this is
for you, for sure.

Positively Killer
What a treat! A great example of techno rock with 80's punch yet not without rocking 90's guitars. Ronnie Montrose is in there supplying the expected. I think my favorite is "Lonely" with its soothing melodies and well thought harmony accompanyment. Chant along with "Nothing" then laugh out loud to "Burn" and "Why". Vocals are done so well particularly with the opening "Security" where deep controlling tones command attention.
Some great stuff here.
