Melody Maker - "...Allow yourself to be caught up by the concept and this album has the snide appeal of the Mary Chain's AUTOMATIC....you know they're selling out, but on their own terms....It's easy to see how Electrafixion will be passionately hated, but it's my inclination to roll with the sanitised romanticism and enjoy..."

Electrafixion reunites former Echo & The Bunnymen members Ian McCulloch and Will Sergeant, so it isn't surprising that the gloomy, dense soundscapes of their debut, Burned, recalls their former group. Even if the staples of the group's sound are in place, Burned isn't an exercise in nostalgia. Sergeant adds layers of tough, gnarled guitars to McCulloch's dense brooding, which has progressed lyrically and melodically since The Bunnymen's first records. Nevertheless, the monolithic drone of The Bunnymen's early albums were what made the group vibrant and distinctive in the early '80s. While the duo has matured with Electrafixion, they have sacrificed some excitement in the process, even if Burned occasionally seethes with noise and distortion. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine|
