(Interscope Records)
Release Date: October 12,2002
The album received mixed reaction from contemporary music critics. Many critics praised the catchiness and production standards, while ambivalent towards the group’s tacky imagery and vocal abilities. Upon its release, it debuted inside the top ten in many European countries including Denmark, Austria, Finland and Italy. It became the group’s best-selling album on the US Billboard 200, peaking at thirteen. The album became the highest selling album in Russia, with estimated shipments of one million copies. They went on to promote the album with their Show Me Love Tour.
One of the three official singles “All the Things She Said” became one of the most successful singles in the 2000 era, charting at the top spot in over 20 countries. The song was responsible for bringing the group to the spotlight, particularly with the music video, which caused international controversy. “Not Gonna Get Us” and “How Soon Is Now?” charted moderately worldwide. With the sales, they became the first Russian act to have an album charting in many charts worldwide, and the second to chart on the US Billboard 200, following Gorky Park in 1989.
