"I don't think there is a single weak track on this album, although there are certainly plenty of stand-out tracks. Giving Bad People Good Ideas rivals Get Got and Beware for the title of "best opener to a Death Grips album". The well-sung female vocals counter Ride's outbursts and the extremely a..."  [+]  Reply

"Released a year after his suicide, I remember a profound sadness on my first listen of this album. I like Elliott Smith’s previous work, all the way back to his days with the band Heatmiser, and I could see in this heavier, raw set a real breakthrough in his music. There is still debate as to wha..."  [+]  Reply

"After several listening, I find this still their best after all, and Into the Labyrinth and Aion come second among all their works, but this record is unparalleled in terms of atmosphere on the score arrangement. The only things I don't like about it are the utter separation into 4 tracks by Bren..."  [+]  Reply

"During the late eighties, Excitable Boy was in heavy rotation at the pizza place in Auburn, Maine, where I worked in the kitchen after school to earn pocket cash. It might have been the only album that was universally liked by all the high school aged staff who worked in the kitchen those years. ..."  [+]  Reply

"Even with After Laughter now under Paramore's belt, I still feel this is their strongest album. 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

"Great album from KGLW, and also the precursor to their follow-up album and masterpiece; Nonagon infinity. The album's beginning tracks are a wild continuous ride full of hips shaking and head bobbing highlights. It is definitly one of those projects with a remmeberable start. It is also quite sur..."  [+]  Reply

"It is true, I only listened to this because Steven Wilson produced, played the keyboard and co-wrote one track. But this is not a Steven Wilson album. It is clearly Mikael Åkerfeldt driven here. Such beautifully haunting tracks. Favourites are: the first 3 tracks, To Rid The Disease and Weakness."  Reply
