Life-altering record. by Chris (Philly suburbs, PA)  5 Stars
June 03, 2007
Two stars (below)? Don't make me laugh.
This album blows away 98% of music out there. Sure, Antarctica was only together for an EP and this double-disc MASTERPIECE, but the music speaks for itself... it is absolutely breathtaking, great driving music, great sleeping music, great make-out music, you name it.
Antarctica broke up in 2000 and went on to form Ova Looven... which is more cold and electronic... but still, AMAZING. If you like this record (and if you have great music taste, I don't see why you wouldn't absolutely worship it), check out Ova Looven. Chris Donohue, the mastermind behind Antarctica and Ova Looven (main singer)... what a genius. Thank you for improving my life, through music.

not a steaming pile of... by leavesinthecity (Philadelphia, PA)  3 Stars
March 24, 2006
i bought this album a few months ago. being a fan of eric richter's previous outfit, christie front drive, i decided to give this 2 disc album a shot. he strays far from rock but still manages to keep some of the same sound and elements that made christie front drive great. unfortunately not enough. frankly, the songs are simply average. they seem to all blend together and there are no real standouts other than the first track, "absence". this cd makes great mood music, but if you want anything more than that... this isn't your cd.

Pretty much just 2 very good electronic-influenced indie rock songs - 2.5 stars by C. Cross  2 Stars
January 01, 2006
Antarctica is a bunch of interesting ideas which sometimes work but mostly don't. The second track, "Tower Of Silence", is a great example of this. Musically it sounds pretty cool, but the singer kind of destroys the effect. If he worked on it a bit more it would be a pretty good song (it's a decent song as is, but it could've been way better). "Absence" and "Return To Omma Down", though, are very cool songs the likes of which you don't hear that often (the style, I mean). They're electronica-influenced rock while the rest of the album is just straight-up indie rock. The rest of the songs are pretty bad, unfortunately - they're just very hard to listen to. The lyrics are very hard to discern and thus don't add any impact to the songs. Though it does contain some interesting moments (plus those 2 songs), I don't think I'd recommend it, ESPECIALLY with its $19.00 price tag.
Highlights include:
"Absence"
"Tower Of Silence"
"Return To Omma Down"
"Arctikal" (sort of)
"Ultra Nørsk." (parts of it)

Pure Ecstasy by Lex (Portland, OR) 5 Stars
February 07, 2004
WOW, I had just recently picked up Ova Looven 58:34 & realized that members of that band were in Antarctica. I do not know for the life of me how I let a record like this slip past me but holy crap. Beautiful melting synth driven melodies with luscious harmonies over perfectly orchestrated beats. The song writing is incredible & stands out from anything I've heard in a while (considering this record came out in 2001). Overall if you like the mysterious guitar sounds of Cocteau Twins & The Cure mixed with dreamy electronic elements get this record NOW. I also highly recommend the Ova Looven record which takes the electronic elements a little bit further yet still keeping the same atmosphere as Antarctica.

Sunday Night Listening! 5 Stars
September 22, 2003
For a number of years this cd has been a treasure of my collection, and today stands alone as the best. If I were granted the wish of being in one band ever, it would be antarctica. The only cd I've ever had to copy just because I wore out the original. It's the most amazing piece of artistry I've ever heard, and I wish there was more out there by them, but maybe they used all of there magic on this and the e.p. Christie Front Drive had nothing on Antarctica, and the guys in Jimmy eat world are fighting the wrong battle if they want CFD back together instead of Antarctica. If you need something to listen to when your sad, on a sunday night, fancying a lover, driving late at night, or even dancing, this is your pick.
