"Super-incredible instrumental virtuosity everywhere! More challenging than Yes' most classic albums, but no less musical. I find it awesome that for this album, they dispensed with any attempt whatsoever to make something with broad listening appeal and go for the absolute pinnacle of blow-your-m..." [+] Reply

"Like most of the albums of Genesis' pop phase, this one is quite inconsistent. The good songs can stand up to the band's prog staples, but the bad songs are lightyears behind even the worst songs on Nursery Crime through A Trick of the Tail. "Mama" is one of Genesis' best tracks. It's eerie, ener..." [+] Reply

"They perfected everything they did well on "dear catastrophe waitress". Every song seems riddled with a broad smile and a wide ray of sunshine. "act of the apostle" is an elegant introductory number singing "Oh, if I could make sense of it all! / I wish that I could sing / I'd stay in a melody / ..." [+] Reply

"I like Phil Collins but like many in the 80's got sick of seeing him as he inundated the album charts with solo albums, Genesis work, on other artists records, movies (Buster), Live Aid (both UK and US), etc. you get the drift. I haven't recovered from this saturation decades later. I only own th..." [+] Reply

"For about two years in the early 80s the only two albums I listened to were "Private Parts" by Robert Ashley and this album "Colossal Youth" by Young Marble Giants. Alison's voice was so sublimely melancoly and her pristine voice was the perfect musical vehicle for Stuart's dark existential lyric..." [+] Reply

"S.V.E's 'Remind Me Tomorrow' is a brave move for an artist that is cut from the folk guitar cloth , but satisfyingly it works The electronic sound is jarring to the S.V.E fan upon first listen but ultimately rewards with patience and repeated listening's . The album really kicks into gear with th..." [+] Reply

"Can we talk about how unexpectedly good this album is? I re listened to it as an adult and figured I wouldnt like it like I did as a kid. But no, it kicks ass still! Especially that song with Robert Smith. Its freaking sweet! I had no clue who Robert Smith was a kid, but years as a music fan obvi..." [+] Reply

"Suede were always very large to put non-album tracks on their single releases so 19 of the bonus-tracks come from the singles "The Wild Ones" New Generation "," Trash "," Beautiful Ones "," Saturday Night "," Lazy "and " Filmstar ". The first two are actually "Dog Star Man" singles, but the recor..." [+] Reply
