"I had high expectations for this album and it's even better than I hoped. The jamming nature of opening track Rattlesnake sets up the album allowing the listener to adjust to the microtonal sound and from then on it's a lot of fun. Immediately wanted to listen to it again after first listen." Reply

"I always feel grateful to hear John Martyns voice. He shares a lot of himself. This album is both deep and playful and somehow manages to comfort my emotions and then rip them apart again. Solid Air is like an old friend. It never fades. Everyone should own this" Reply

"For a while, The Money Store was Death Grips' best album. But The Powers That B (TPTB) is really contending for that spot. It's a bit of an unfair competition considering the fact that TPTB's two sides give it great variety. One really interesting pointer is that both sides feature someone who ha..." [+] Reply

"Now, at last, an indie sensibility is turning into a movement. This (not the repetitive "An Awesome Wave") is the document. Featuring warm foothills, female rebels, and duels. Above all, "love is the warmest color"" Reply

"Without a doubt, one of the most sonically exciting releases all year. This is an album that feels tactile, yet otherworldly in the same breath. Not to mention that the songwriting manages to be concise, without sacrificing versatility. No Shape is a bright (though not Too Bright), uplifting work..." [+] Reply

"Elvis Presley's second album is obviously nowhere near as significant or important as his first, but it is a more consistent record. Some great rock'n'roll classics sung with gusto serve to make this a thoroughly enjoyable album. Elvis at his early best." Reply
