Led off by "Fantasy," their biggest clubland hit in years, third album
That Was Then, This Is Now presents a resurrected
Ten City with both feet firmly planted in the world of mainstream house and dance-pop. There are plenty of uninhibited workouts for
Byron Stingily's amazing voice on "The Way You Make Me Feel," "Love in a Day," and "What My Love Can Do," but signals of the end also come with the bittersweet productions on "Joy and Pain" and "When I'm Gone, I'm Gone." Despite the fact that it was their last,
That Was Then, This Is Now is the best
Ten City album since their debut five years earlier. ~ Keith Farley
