    Buon disco, però preferisco di gran lunga Secondhand Daylight. Devoto & Co. erano comunque una garanzia, l'altra faccia della New wave.

      A very promising debut, Magazine was ahead of the times. Unfortunately Devoto's vocal delivery can't keep up with the sophisticated backing tracks, with a more fitting vocalist this would have been a true classic album.
