Critic's Review
Alex Ogg, All Music Guide
Containing arguably their best work of the '80s, Lament showcases a band with confidence to match their commercial status (it was the first of their albums to be self-produced). The electro-synth workout "Dancing With Tears in My Eyes" actually works quite well, and is their best single since the epochal (for good and bad reasons) "Vienna." "White China," too, is impressive. [The 1999 UK release features seven bonus tracks that are mostly different mixes, including new versions of "One Small Day" and "Man of Two Worlds"]
