"Listening to Teenager of the Year, I can't help but be amazed at the amount of music this man had inside of him. This 22 songs-long tour de force manages to be astounding from start fo finish despite its ambitious length and it's as good, or maybe even better, than anything he did with the Pixies..." [+] Reply

"A very unique sounding album. I'm impressed by the incredibly clean instrumentals and the idiosyncratically authentic lyrics that cover a wide variety of topics but never falter. From the start, the album is abrasive but it also possesses the chaotic form that continues throughout. Consistently g..." [+] Reply

"This album was huge in Britain, where 'Grace Kelly', 'Love Today' and 'Relax (Take it Easy)' were big hits. Did not deserve the apathy it received in the states. It's worthwhile to pay attention to the British music charts, and this album proves it." Reply

"Justin Timberlake still shows how ambicious he is compared to his fellow popstars collegues. This album screams for the attention that its very well deserved. Different song structures, many surprising beat changes, great production, amazing vocals, some amount of experimentation of sound and exp..." [+] Reply

"Honestly I was underwhelmed by Chemtrails, it's not bad but any means. Starts off great and sadly falls into the uninspiring/kinda boring realm for me.. Blue Banisters is a vast improvement! I really enjoyed this one. It's beautifully crafted and more interesting to my ears and her vocals are won..." [+] Reply

"The best voice of all time singing like never, Claus Ogerman´s delicate and inspired arrangements and a first line Tom Jobim and American Standards repertoire, all in a sofisticated Bossa Nova style. Everything here is perfect." Reply

"There's a review that criticizes these songs as mere character sketches in which "very little happens." If that's what you're taking away from these songs, you're just not listening. I've said it before, but his ability to create a whole world in four minutes is masterful." Reply

"a pop masterpiece. i found it really hard to listen to it beyond Hollaback Girl because the first three songs are total killers and the other can sound like filler. But not at all. My favourites is Luxurious and the first three. Special mention to A Long Way To Go, i found it really interesting." Reply
"This is my fav. It has it all, love, pain, strife, anger, joy and hope. It's been a great pleasure to listen to Pete's best and rediscover this periodically throughout my adulthood" Reply

"The best was yet to come, but this isn’t a bad metal record by any means. All the Rob Halford style screeching that Tom was doing felt a little forced and awkward, but the tunes are fun head banging, genre pushing heart pounders." Reply
