Reviews
8 out of 10 - "...the rare career act able to turn DJ aesthetics into consistently fruitful pop....a bittersweet beauty with waves of melody and understated romance...", "...serves sumptuous techno-pop ditties as if they were flutes full of decadent absinthe. And they do so with grace, poise and cabaret camp..." - Rating: B+, "...arguably their gayest work....a marked improvement on the the decidedly dubious BILINGUAL....Few surpises, perhaps, but at least they're back on track.", 5 out of 5 - "...a coherent, cohesive and engrossing 12-track string of choral harmonies, new-wave synths and agitated club-hopping full of production numbers....an inward-looking melancholy examination of the dance-club lifestyle...", 4 stars out of 5 - "...their best album....Nightlife comprises 12 sprightly, sensitive, elegiac songs, loosely based around the title....a perplexingly wondrous renaissance....", 3 stars out of 5 - "...The faithful will find plenty of kicks on NIGHTLIFE. The ornate song structures are more Sondheim than Sylvester, but the future-cheese electrobeats hit home...", Included in Q Magazine's "50 Best Albums of 1999."
