"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..."

"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

"The Cult was one of my favorite rock bands of the eighties, with Ian Astbury's Jim Morrison-like persona and Billy Duffy's scorching work on the guitar leading the charge. The Cult managed to weave together New Wave eighties vocal stylings, the loudness and grittiness of metal, and the New Age my..." [+] Reply

"Rundgren's master stroke. It should be called Something/Everything since he pretty much does it all on this inspired smorgasbord of styles, ranging from hard rock and ballads to blue-eyed soul and grunge. And, of course, that tape hiss. Hugely influential, it is a miniature pop world unto itself." 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

""Night Beat" from 1963 is considered one of Sam Cooke's best albums. Since the album does not contain any of Cooke's hits or best known songs, the cause of the album's reputation is rather achieved through its overall casual late-night blues mood. Cooke has written three of the twelve songs, and ..." [+] 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

"I never thought this album could be so good ! It’s almost as good as BIA for me. The tracklist is nice: starting with a classic happy hit of Supertramp, then great varied songs from both singers, and the incredible Fool’s Overture, one of their most accomplished song IMO. Standouts: Give a Little..." [+] Reply

"Mac Demarco is an artist that I have always enjoyed. His albums are always pleasant enough to listen to, and even more so, his personality is just infectious. That being said, this is the first of his albums that goes above and beyond just being a good listen. You can hear him really going outsid..." [+] Reply

"Dark electronics mixed with guitar rifts and even some orchestral strings. This was Depeche Mode's finest and most varied album which feels gothic at times." Reply
