Análisis (en inglés) - :
As the first group of consequence to be saddled with the "new {$Spice Girls}" tag, it would be reasonable to expect that {$All Saints} would be cut-rate dance-pop without the weirdly magical charisma that made {$the Spices} international phenomenons. It is true that {$All Saints} lack the personality of {$the Spices}, but they make up for that with musical skills. All four members have better voices than {$the Spices}, and they all have a hand in writing at least one of the songs on their eponymous debut, with {$Shaznay Lewis} taking the most writing credits. More importantly, they and their producers have a better sense of contemporary dance trends -- there are real hip-hop and club rhythms throughout the record, and samples of {$Audio Two}, {$the Rampage}, and (especially) {$Steely Dan} are fresh and inventive. But what really makes the record are the songs. The singles are the standouts, with the party-ready, {$Steely Dan}-fueled {&"I Know Where It's At"} and the extraordinary gospel-tinged {&"Never Ever"} leading the way, but the covers are well chosen (their take on {&"Under the Bridge"} eclipses {$the Red Hot Chili Peppers}', boasting a better arrangement and more convincing vocals) and the lesser songs are pleasantly melodic. Sure, there's some filler, but that should be expected on any dance-pop album. What counts is that the performances are fresh, the production is funky, and there is a handful of classic pop singles on the album, and you can't ask for much better than that from a dance-pop record, especially one from a group that almost beat {$the Spice Girls} at their own game. [This edition of {^All Saints} released in Japan includes a bonus track.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, All Music Guide
