The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes, released in February 1996, was the first album from Babylon Zoo. It peaked at number 6 in the album chart, though it did not match the success of its first single "Spaceman" which reached number 1 in 23 countries.
Other singles released from this album were "Animal Army", which reached 17 in the charts, and "The Boy with the X-Ray Eyes", which reached 32.
The New York Times described the album as "wonderful and satisfying in the short term but ultimately disposable."
