Reviews"It’s the unconsciousness, that not knowing, that makes the record so great, that makes it sound like it’s beamed in from some vast emptiness. It was pop music that resembled the most enduring pop culture in history...", Ranked #69 in Q's "100 Greatest British Albums" - "This glorious daft creation is as Northern as FA Cup Giant killing....they conquer the world with a slightly wonky brand of techno that was more Norman Wisdom than Giorgio Moroder...", Rated #78 in Rolling Stone's "100 Best Albums of the Eighties" Survey. (November 1989), 4 Stars Out of 5-"...A Timeless Pure Pop Fusion of Deadpan Heartache and Noirish Electronica...", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "Urbane, Futuristic, and Just a Bit Silly, It Still Sounds Fantastic.", 3 Stars Out of 5-"...Tuneful and Oh-So-Charmingly Dated Pop...", 5 stars out of 5 -- "A record that nonchalantly pulls off the rare trick of capturing its moment while never seeing to age.", "The band’s music relied heavily on synthesizers, but it was DARE where their more avant proclivities met with pop and even elements of Bowie-esque glam.", Ranked #18 in Nme's List of the 50 Greatest Albums of the '80s., Ranked #2 in Cmj's "Top 20 Most-Played Albums of 1982".

Human league Dare
The Human League in the Year 1981 Was without doubt the biggest & the best Band on the Planet. The Dare album being their Finest! Work! The favourite album. The one to purchase! They were at the Peak Pinnacle of their Career... Sit back and reminisce or Discover a Gem! from the Past!

Excellent album
Bought this for my friend's birthday - but have the album myself. Best Human League album in my opinion - from start to finish, every track is a classic. Favourite track - 'Seconds'
