CD Reviews

Exceptional Release

"This recording does not disappoint, it excels. This is the same as the original vinyl release in content. I find myself skipping over "Seedy Films" and "Secret Life" from time to time, but thats just because "Youth/Sex Dwarf" and "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye" are just THAT good. They even throw in "Tainted Love"... perhaps you've heard that one before? I would highly recommend this release, BUT they released this with BONUS TRACKS and if you can spare the dough you will not be disappointed as their B sides and remixes compare with their other material and also come highly recommended by me. Enjoy!"
Non-stop galore and more

"Looks like this CD has a lot more singles then the original vinyl LP had (maybe b-sides?). Probably Soft Cell's biggest commercial success, Non-Stop contains all the seedyness and synthy clickity clack that made the band such a favorite with the crowd that "dressed in black." The huge hit that everyone knows is on this one ("Tainted Love") and is so overplayed that most fans will skip it when listening to this. True classic are the sad, tugging "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye", the very desperate "Youth" and the anxious "Bedsitter" and "Chips On My Shoulder." Soft Cell used synths in a very funky way, different than other groups of their musical genre (Depeche Mode, Ultravox). The Soft Cell sound contained on this CD usually is dominated by one or two very strong, simple synth lines with different types of percussion ranging from euro-disco a la 1980 to even a kind of 50s sock-hop-rock on a tape-loop. The sound ! is dingy and lonely, but also alive with the sleaze of a blurry night, binging and bouncing from bar to bar."
This was strange, but not bad at all....

"When I first heard Soft Cell so long ago all I knew was "Tainted Love", but when I heard "Sex Dwarf" I was blown away. Yes it's very strange & unusual. Much like Roxy Music's "In Every dreamhome a heartache". Soft Cell I thought was tame until I listend to this album & I would recommend it to as many people as I could. "Seedy Films" also another unusual song. There is also "Say Hello, Wave goodbye" really good song. Overall a good album & I listen to it a lot."
