"Don't believe all the negativity on this. For my money this is a very very good album. From top to bottom it really holds up. "Gravity" is a highlight, unbelievable blues guitar there. "Vultures" and "I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You" have a very well executed soul/funk sound with excellent g..." [+] Reply

"Yet another great Nick Cave album, and really the last of the more darker earlier records. After this, Cave wouldn't exactly turn into Elton John, but his music would become more accessible, although still not exactly commercial. The tender prey kicks off with, the mercy seat, another classic Cav..." [+] Reply

"The quotes below are - for the most part - from “Van der Graaf Generator - The Book” by Jim Jim Christopulos and Phil Smart. John Frusciante (Red Hot Chili Peppers) - "When we started touring for the album By The Way, I and the rest of the band would always be listening to Pawn Hearts on the bus ..." [+] Reply

"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..."

"Forever thankful for this album because it got me into electronic music. Personally to me it is one of those moments where you are like "Wow I didn't know music can sound like this". Objectively speaking, this album does have flaws and has some filler tracks mostly because CC just wanted to put o..." [+] Reply

"I rate the UK version of this album as their third best of the sixties after Let it Bleed and Beggars Banquet. Despite losing Satisfaction, Play with Fire and The Last Time I just feel the UK version flows better. Some of the replacements aren't too shabby anyway...Heart of Stone, Gotta Get Away ..."

"A very pleasant album. The instrumentation is lush and diverse and the melodies are blissful. At times the lyrics are kind of iffy and some songs overstay their welcome a tad, but its forgivable because as a whole this album is a beautiful experience." Reply

"Important album for the electronic/dance genre. Justice exploded with fame and did so much for the genre just with one album. The harder dance/house nature of this album would prove as a precursor to all the aggressive dubstep now that has grown in the past year. There's something revolutionary a..." [+] Reply
