"For me, this is the album of the decade so far. It combines shoegaze, which is probably my favourite genre, with the Dinousaur Jr. esque indie rock sound, which I also love, and the result is truly fantastic. This album is so very underrated- I mean, its not even in the top ten of the year, when ..." [+] Reply

Then it starts to morph into something a bit more thought out and structured. Enjoyed this more than I thought I would by the end. Blood and Butter is a l..." [+] Reply

"People always talk about the filler, but from what I can tell there are 10 good songs and 6 bad ones. The bad ones are really bad. But maybe we cannot agree which are the bad six. Here's my go as the single non-filler album (Ive cheated a little with 15 songs) Dust N Bones Live N Let Die Bad Obse..." [+] Reply

"The production on this record add onto what they were going towards on SATURATION. You also get a sense of what each member is good at vocally. Honestly this may be better than its predecessor." Reply

"I listen to this one on vinyl all the time since my uncle gave me an original copy along with Purple Rain. The sum is greater than it's parts for sure as it has a loose concept going on based on the horrible movie Prince directed (The one talent he didn't exactly shine in, though a decent actor)...."

"One of the most honest, direct and self-aware albums I have ever listened to. Its a very dejected, melancholic record.. and Mitski has created it like she's mastered the art of sadness; immersing herself in it, appreciating its subtle nuances, and then putting it away to pick up whenever she so d..."
