Worth every penny, folks. You'll wear a groove in this CD.

"The tracks are highlights of an album that you would be hard pressed to find in the United States, "Instinct", released in Europe mostly for this band stepping up. The rhythm is fresh, inventive, smart, and stylish. The sounds are molded with careful artistry supporting the harmony, edge, and accents of the heavenly voice of Nicola Hitchcock. The songs are deeply moving, guessing at an instinct that sits close to us, when we become still. Talent like this deserves an ear. I wish I could send these songs to everyone..."

"This cd is one of my fave's. I worked to it through all of my exam revision, incidently I did very well. The cd is an eclectic mix of trip hop all centred roung the hauntingly eerie voice of the lead singer. Sliding synthesisers and extra instrumental suprises make this album a bittersweet triumph for Mandalay. Buy it and love it. It will chill you out, make you cry, almost cleanse you emotionally. Get it!!!!"
