"A wonderfully crafted collection of songs that really deserve a lot more love than I see them receive. Every song on here possesses something that you will enjoy and every track is at least good if not better. Their build up is sensational and they really allow every song to properly breathe whic..."

"Another great one from Priest. Includes some classic tracks but also some overlooked - more melodic - gems, like "Fever" or "Bloodstone"." Reply

"There's some great highlights in this record but a lot of the tracks feel inconsistent. It's really clear how bad the relationship between Pete and Carl was at the time. I think it's clear Up the Bracket is a much stronger record than this one but this was a decent album by The Libertines" Reply

"Severely underestimated album. It's clearly quite spotty; but have great singles (among the best of their career), and some bittersweet gems such as Best days, Fade away, He thought of cars or It could be you. It also saw hints of what was to come both in Blur and Damon's side projects future alb..." [+] Reply

"Why listen to an album before its release and before any others have rated it if you already hate the band and know that you'll hate the album too, thejoj96? Just to talk it down? Have you even listened to it? I bet you've not! You must have waited impatiently for someone to finally put it on a c..." [+] Reply

"Fulfillingness first finale, always seems to be the forgotten album in that stunning run of LP's in the early/mid seventies, and in truth, it's not quite as brilliant as those other records. Still, it's a good album featuring some classic songs, including the funky Richard Nixon rant, you ain't d..." [+] Reply

"Lovely Kate Bush record. The sensual world completes a run of four brilliant albums. Some great songs and sounds here. Love and anger, heads we dance, and, this woman's work, are all excellent. The sensual world, is an atmospheric record, but has the songs to back it up." Reply

"I have nothing to say. Ray Charles is one of the greatest artists of all time. He is best known for his soul songs, but "Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music" is the best country album of all time in my opinion. Usually, I'm not a big fan of country albums but this album is really different..." [+] Reply

"This album has almost become obsolete with the release of the bootleg series version. Still, it's a good album in it's own right, but as it says on the tin, it's Bob Dylan and the band, not just Bob. About a third of the album features just the Band, the rest with Dylan. Million dollar bash, is n..." [+] Reply
