Reviews6 (out of 10) - "...his first credible stab at a vanguard styling since his Brian Eno days, a collection of nine tunes surfing the wave of dance music that's everyone's best bet for next big thing...", 3.5 Stars (out of 5) - "...gets its charge from the kind of loud, industrial power riffs and electronically treated vocals that Trent Reznor is so fond of....captures the mood of contemporary popular culture--from the anguish of American industrial rock to the ecstasy of British dance music.", "...A good example of Bowie's magpie instinct coinciding with rejuvenated creative urges. The industrial rock...served him well.", Included in Q Magazine's "50 Best Albums of 1997.", "...an album as playable as it is startling....As dacne subgenres go, techno and drum-and-bass represent the fastest styles yet invented, making this, by definition, Bowie's briskest album. A sprint of slapping snare drums and shimmering cymbals brightens nearly every track..." - Rating: A, 4 Stars Out of 5-"The Album Contains Some Grippingly Sublime Moments...", "...Bowie's recorded his most enjoyable record in a long time, hot on the heels of his most interesting ditto...", "...Best since SCARY MONSTERS....Bowie hasn't stooped to cloning (he never stoops--it's terrible for the posture). Bowie absorbs...assimilates...Then advances..."
