Production

The album was produced by Jon St. James.

Critical reception

The Los Angeles Times determined that "songs are put together like Lego houses, out of discreet bits of linked melodic material... But the process becomes formulaic after a while: mechanical beats overlaid with soft keyboard gauze and a puff of vocal melody." AllMusic wrote that "the Anything Box sound can be likened to that of Erasure, with simple pop hooks, soaring vocals, and bubbly synths." Spin noted that "Living in Oblivion" "revive[d] the dread that was barely concealed in all those '70s Bee Gees disco hits."
