"I have a lot of records that I love, but there are only a few that cross the border into pure bliss, the sort of record that you'll always come back to. Neutron 9000's 'Walrus' has it (good luck finding THAT), Electribe 101's 'Electribal Memories' has it, Cocteau Twins 'Treasure' has it. 'Belief' has it, believe me. Gee, where are you?"

"Simply superb. All tracks are beautifully orchestrated with lush tones and harmonics. Deep meaningful lyrics underpin exquisite musical virtuosity. Innocence was and still are ahead of their time. Innocence exudes similar spiritual overtones to early Santana classics such as Welcome, Borboletta and Caravanserai. Their musical greatness is probably magnified by their absence. If only they would return with more."

Deep, mystic, sexy, inspirating

"I bought this album around ten years ago... in vinyl, now is really hard to find in CD, is great to find it here even when imported and expensive, I pay for it again !It is difficult to classify, they really took a big step ahead in the 90's, even today this music sounds ahead of our time. It is difficult to compare and describe: mellow trance, mystic, house samples, suggestive and sexy velvet voices, inspirating, brilliant guitar arrangements melted with the rich texture of synthesizers...
Today we would call this music as "naked music", "chill out"... but I insist that really even today sounds fresh and new!I put five stars with no doubt !!!"
