"Despising this Album at first, it quickly grew on me. Now its one of my absolute favorites, from the trippy feel of Dramamine to Space Travel is Boring. It established Modest Mouse as a unique alternative band."  Reply

"There is some truth in the comparison has been made of this album compared to the Beatles' White Album, the album combines national folklore rhythms with rock, punk, bolero, in short it is an eclectic album. an instant classic"  Reply

"For whatever reason Rush is not a band that I've ever felt the need to connect with and listen to until now, a relatively late phase in my musical discovery (of classic rock at least), and I am completely shocked and blown away by how good this album is (especially considering that you don't hear..."  [+]  Reply

"Here they are again, sounding better than everyone else all over again. A marked improvement on Think Tank and most definitely rubbing shoulders with some of their best records. Reflective of the city it was recorded in - Hong Kong, there's a spacey, futuristic glow to each song whilst all the wh..."  [+]  Reply

"This is one of those albums that make me think this is how music is supposed to be. It does what it has to do to be good, and leaves all other unnecessary bullshit. It introduces a sound and shows what it can do. If that sound is truly good and original, you don't need to convince your audience w..."  [+]  Reply

"For my money the best greatest hits compilation ever assembled. The track order flows so well and it feels like everything was released all at once. Not a bad song among the bunch, just one hit after another. Orgasm Addict, Ever Fallen in Love..., Promises, Harmony in My Head, and Autonomy are so..."  [+]  Reply
