Their success can be attributed to the fact that Paramore knew which songs were destined to be hit singles in the music scene post-Fall Out Boy's breakthrough success two years prior. While the three h..."  [+]  Reply

"Excellent from beginning to end, BURN brought a new life to Deep Purple, after entry of the new members David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes. Coverdale owns one of the most exciting voices of all time, and their participation is crucial in this album. Ritchie Blackmore is also quite inspired and the ..."  [+]  Reply

"Any album that can transport you to another world as easy as just slipping headphones on is special. This one's super special. Not as groundbreaking as Blue Lines, but the next jump in their game was coming soon enough. A solid place holder to their trip hop throne that's only marred by the last ..."  [+]  Reply

"I usually begin by commenting on the production, but here I feel like making an exception., becayse I am such a big fan of his rapping. His delivery is a bit weird, a bit like he doesn't even care anymore, maybe that's why it's so addictive and so memorable. Most of the guests are in the same moo..."  [+]  Reply

"I'm going to tell you that this is The White Stripes' best album so hang with me. I get that you all are attached to White Blood Cells. I get the appeal of that album, it's a jolt of rock.
