4 stars Plagiarism of Pink Floyd? That is probably an unfair statement but they do in parts sound so like Floyd that one loses focus that this in fact Archive strutting their stuff. ' Again' is without a doubt the high point of ' You All Look The Same To Me', even the edit mix makes for a great listen. The guitars and synthesizers swirling around amidst a contemplative almost hyponotic beat make for a refreshing progressive format for 2001/2. It was surprising that this song did not fair better in the charts. Actally not surprising as it was too good for the charts!

The rest of the album holds up OK but seldom reaches the same dizzy height that ' Again' managed. Other highlights include ' Numb' and ' Goodbye' but overall this album lacks consistency and can only be appreciated for highlights here and there. Check out the single ' Again' if you must.

Chris S | 4/5 |
