While most peeps became familiar with the awesome Letters To Cleo through the 10 Things I Hate About You soundtrack, I discovered them before that through another great teen movie- The Craft. I'd advise fans to buy the Craft soundtrack for their version of 'Dangerous Type' alone.
This is basically pogo-jumping fast paced pop punk at its best. My only criticism would be that some of the songs are a bit samey.
I'd also advise fans to get the Josie & The Pussycats soundtrack too, as the lead singer of Cleo also provides the vocals for the fictional Josie. Peace out and stay kooky!

4.0 out of 5 stars Liked LTC on ten things? BUY THIS NOW!, 2 May 2001

By A Customer

Along with half the planet, I first heard Letters to Cleo on the `10 things` soundtrack and was instantly impressed,so much so that buying some of their work was simply a must.Last year i couldnt find LTC's cd's in any shop!,so I came online and found them! It took me a while to get into this album, but i have to say it was worth it! - my personal fave's are `AWAKE` and `FAST WAY`,the vocals on this cd are amazing, i have now ordered `GO` and am waiting to compare it with this album.This album needs advertising,and i am the one to do it - liked LTC on 10 things? BUY THIS NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have fun listening and enjoying LTC'S music, god bless, Nat (uk)

3.0 out of 5 stars Not their best, but still pretty good..., 29 May 2006

By	Mark_T (Sheffield, UK) - See all my reviews

I bought this CD after liking "Go!" and wanting to hear more of the band. That's why you're here too, right? Of course it is! Well, "Wholesale Meats And Fish" is Letters To Cleo's second album, actually released a couple of years before the better known "Go!", and their sound is pretty similar here. The chief disappointment I had with this CD, though, is that a lot of the songs sound too similar; there's a number of tracks that merge fairly indistinguishably into one another without really leaping out at you or grabbing your attention. Whereas such a charge might be levelled at "Go!", albeit a little unfairly, I feel such criticism is more justified here. That's not to say it's a particularly bad album, just that it's not spectacularly good either due to the lack of variety. It's the kind of CD I find to be agreeable background music, but not a whole lot more. That having been said, its stronger songs are worth a mention: "What Do You Want, Yeah?" is a simple but effective rock number; "Laudanum" is the most chilled track on the album and a very good slower song at that; and if the bizarre "He's Got An Answer" doesn't stick in your head, the chorus to opener "Demon Rock" probably will! I doubt it's a CD you'll be reaching for too often though. If you liked "Go!" and want more of the same, you'll probably enjoy this, but bear in mind it's not quite as good: on the other hand, if you're only looking to buy one LTC album, I'd recommend you get "Go!" instead.
