Interesting album, this is an interesting blend of sounds, perhaps not as chilled as Jem (a namely definitely worth watching for over the coming year), slighly less in your face as the chart stuff from Gwen Stefani’s first solo ofering (but also a damn sight better than Gwen which is fine as far as the singles go but after that is to put is baldly crap). The sound often comes across as ideas from the 80s pop to today thrown in a blender and the nicest results being pulled out. For example Me Plus One – sounds a bit like a Madonna singing the Human League’s Love Action, or Always Too Late could be a white Beyonce or a girl band with talent!

If you want to go light a frothy without becoming crappy (aka Girls Aloud)- then this is a good place stop.
