In its retrospective review, Trouser Press wrote: "Borland's subsequent solo career got off to a good start with Alexandria, as he brings a variety of moods to the alternately austere, sensuous and lighthearted pop, revealing a mild Velvet Underground influence."[2]

gollark: I have vinyl's user volume on 0 myself.
gollark: ... wait a minute, the point to point link one is just a somewhat constrained case of the general virtual channels one since *both* involve seeing which graphs are connected...
