ReviewsGood - "...there's a welcome sense of humor and necessity here, without the morbid toiling that often distinguishes the critically acclaimed...", "...An appealingly brainy mix of the Go-Betweens and T. Rex, this debut drips with the same sissyboy-gone-bad irony the Kinks' Ray Davies perfected 25 years ago..." - Rating: A-, Ranked #18 in New Musical Express' list of `The Top 50 LPs Of 1993' - "...The year's most evocative record...as revenge-minded debut albums go, it's only a few feet short of being a few feet short of genius....", Highly Recommended - "...a pop-literate fetishist's dream, bearing 12 compact narratives....New Wave, old-fashioned virtues, and the essence of the art-school pop renaissance...", Ranked #19 in Melody Maker's list of the `Albums Of The Year' for 1993 - "...The Auteurs defined a new strand of British pop that was cool, classy and cynically erudite...", Included in Q's list of `The 50 Best Albums Of 1993' - "...The year's most surprising triumph....Luke Haynes writes marvelous songs...."
