The in-your-face Glam/Electro-pop of the previous two albums was dropped on this release, in favour of a calm and dreamy synthesizer Folk sound that drifts along nicely. Happily, the dramatic change of pace didn't mean a similarly dramatic drop in quality. The music is a good fit to
Alison's vocal tones, including her indecipherable pastoral mumblings, and even when it seems forced she's confident enough to convince us that it doesn't. Some things haven't changed, though, there's still theft (aka homage) on many tracks from artists of a bygone era, most notably from
The Beatles at their most psychedelic.
