"The Bates are literally one of the best punk bands of all time, and this is their masterpiece! Although not as successful as "Pain and Pleasure", this is certainly one of the best rock-n-roll albums to come out of the 90's, and believe me, I have listened to a lot of music. The songs flow together brilliantly, and there is not a weak track on the entire disc. Do yourself a favor and buy this album!"

"If you are into Punkrock from Germany than you should know the Bates. Their style wasn't quite raw, rather commerical, but they were from the Beginning of their career on, so you can't say they sold out anyway. But they also know how to do raw and fast. There are many good songs on this Record, but if you have the chance you should rather get "Pleasure and Pain" which is labeld their "Big Hit" album. But this one does it justice too, and if you ever listen to songs like "It's getting dark again" or "I hate to go" you will agree with me. Great Melodies and a lot of great Songs!"
