Review Score: (6/10)
admittedly, i write this review after listening to Gary Numan's lastest work "Pure", so i may be biased. Exile is a 'good' album, in which Gary refocuses on refining dark elements and chord structures as he had on ealier 80's work. Songs like 'Prophecy' and 'Dark' are brooding, clever, and distinct. However, if you don't own any of Numan's last three CDs, "Pure" is the one to buy, as it is better produced and more unique than his previous two. Then again, "Exile" does have that neat 'dagger-like' symbol on it :)
