Love at Absolute Zero is the debut album by the indie pop band My Favorite, released on Double Agent in 1999.[3] The subject matter included the end of new wave, the new millennium, and growing up in suburban Long Island, New York.

Critical reception

[edit | edit source]

AllMusic wrote that the album "translates palpable pre-millennial tension into neon-lit synthesizer drama—recalling the heyday of the new wave with none of the irony which sinks like-minded retro-futurists from Romania to the Rentals."[1] Trouser Press called it "an excellent debut, nostalgic but forward-looking at the same time."[4]
