"After half of a year trying to find the best way to describe this album i think I've finally decided. Maturity. Isbell as come so far from his days with DBT that he truly has become a force of nature in the Country genre with this album. My hope is that will it grow in our little BEA community, a..." [+] Reply

"This album is a cacophony of joy. Guitars, horns and, "lobotomy beats", you can hear the influences talking over each other like drunk students solo cups in hand at some epic party. Nicotine and Gravy is a highlight towards the end it is punctuated by a James Brown snare onto a Stevie Wonder clav..." [+] Reply

"One of the most complex and deeply rooted pieces of loud music ever recorded. Vile, poetic, emotional, and pure, Jane Doe is indeed a piece of music history. It needs more than one listen to get into, but once it has rampaged through your mind, it will quickly become one of the best things you'll..." [+] Reply

"This is where metal was born. You have to thank these guys for Led Zep, Black Sabbath, AC/DC. Listen to Clapton's version of SPOONFUL. They broke away from the standard that was introduced by the Beatles, and emulated by so many in the British Invasion of the 60's" Reply

"I used to compare Phil Elvrum's works as the musical equivalent of Lars Von Trier's movies. The Boldness is combined with a sense of creativity that spills emotion all over the listener, He/She is ripped out from the comfort zone and thrown out in the middle of a hurricane without any clues of ho..."

"The follow up and a kind of companion album to, Parklife, is another cracking LP. It hasn't quite got the bite and edge of it's predecessor, but there are some fine songs and many more quirky characters to meet. Best days, is absolutely beautiful, as is, yuko and hiro, and off course, the univers..." [+] Reply

"Released in 1980, 'Underwater Moonlight' is an album that has stood the test of time remarkably well and still sounds fresh and inventive. Reminscent of the work of Television and Syd Barrett-era Pink Floyd, the band manage to straddle the early new-wave of the former and the psychedlic whimsy of..." [+] Reply

"One of the best albums of the 2000's, Modest Mouse puts out their third classic in a row. The most common criticism for this album is that no track really stand out, but I beg to differ. This album contains two of the greatest songs MM ever recorded, The Parting of the Sensory and Missed the Boat..." [+] Reply
