| - Quote :
- The album was "absolutely slated" by the British weekly music press, according to Bauhaus biographer Ian Shirley.
NME described the album as "nine meaningless moans and flails bereft of even the most cursory contour of interest, a record which deserves all the damning adjectives usually levelled at grim-faced 'modernists'."
Reviewer Andy Gill then ultimately dismissed them as "a hip Black Sabbath".
Dave McCullough of Sounds was also negative: "No songs. Just tracks (ugh). Too priggish and conceited. Sluggish indulgence instead of hoped for goth-ness. Coldly catatonic." _________________ Disprove the return of a potato (5)
