Press comments

ME/Sounds 1 / 95: "Black arrangiert unter allen Bedingungen amüsante wie intelligente MiniPretiosen, die einander vortrefflich ergänzen. Addiert man dazu sein charakteristisches Gitarrenspiel sowie seine gesangliche Versiertheit werden alle Ansprüche an ein zeitgemäßes Pop-Opus auf der ganzen Linie befriedigt." ALL MUSIC GUIDE **** "Frank Black's second album is a wildly ambitious and eclectic piece of guitar-pop, ranging from the full-throttle roar of "Whatever Happened to Pong?" and "Thalassocracy" to the pure pop of "Headache" and the gorgeous winding melodies of "Speedy Marie". It might be a little long, but 'Teenager of the Year' is packed with thrilling, innovative pop."
