Press Reviews
Ranked #24 in The NME "Top 30 Heartbreak Albums" - "...Fueled by LSD, [it] is a dense, unrelenting wall of ugly noise... NME (8/12/00, p.29)
Included in Q Magazine's Best Gothic Albums Of All Time - "...something uniquely, irresistibly nasty....It made sense of the abject horror of those mock A levels. Q (12/99, p.171)
4 stars out of 5 - "[T]his goth milestone brings the heaviness of metal without its cliches. Smith wails, guitars blare and drums pound in an echo-laden maelstrom of decay and loathing... Rolling Stone (p.79)
Where all aspiring new-wavers go to study enunciation. Spin (p.102)
[A] druggy steel-cage match between death-disco drums and tarnished hooks that's somehow still fun to shimmy to. Spin (p.109)
5 stars out of 5 - "Smith's unearthed demos and live tracks from this period do not prepare you for the pure shock and awe of PORNOGRAPHY. Even today, nothing can. Uncut (p.124)
