AllMusic[3]

Diary of an Antibody is the second album by the English indie pop band Fosca.[3] It was released on August 12, 2002.

Critical reception

AllMusic wrote that Fosca "once again prove why their new wave-inspired sound, while often inspired by the sounds of yesterday, are fresh and exciting, without the slightest hint of sounding contrived."[3] Exclaim! wrote that "they have a well-coiffed, well-dressed singer (Dickon Edwards), all the right synth-heavy instrumentation and campy subject matter, but somehow the final result doesn't have the punch that it should."[4] Scram Magazine called the album "precious and arch London pop."[5]
