Review by greenback:  FM is fundamentally a Canadian progressive rock band. But here, we have a rather sophisticated New Wave/rock album full of excellent synthesizers. Most of the songs are at least good. It is very pleasant to listen to those catchy and addictive melodies. The lead vocals are excellent, the lightly distorted guitars (or keyboards?) sounds too and the keyboards ensemble contributes to color the sustained rythm. The electric violin merges subtly with the other instruments.
