"I deeply regret my first impressions and listens of Consolers of the Lonely, I wasn't ready (not old enough), not yet learned in the great history that is rock'n'roll. The soul and passion of these guys is hard to understand, a brick wall of unpenatrable energy surrounds them here. Behind the bri..."  [+]  Reply

"Because sometimes we do not care anymore about Migos news, we feel like we're talking about K-dot because we have to, and we think that this American hip-hop never seemed also absent, we need a guy like Barrington Hendricks, aka JPEGMAFIA. Peggy's music is first and foremost a very special atmosp..."  [+]  Reply

"The soundtrack to a jungle trek. It starts off with Circle (which is the best on the album by far) in which you are enter the jungle, basking in the sun, and then BAM!, a stampede comes straight away, and you're running away panicking. After the first 20 minutes of your journey you start to settl..."  [+]  Reply

"Wow it beggars belief that an album as good as this one currently sits at # 972 on the BEA Over Chart as per August 2018 whilst garbage like The Rolling Stones 'Aftermath' sits inside the top 500 Where to begin with this album ? Wire to wire its superb from the unconventional opening salvo of "Th..."  [+]  Reply

"This album. Wow. It's hard for me to accurately articulate the experience that I had with this album. This album took me through a range of emotions, it showed me the entire life experience of a human being. People talk about albums being life-affirming, this is it. Susanne Sundfør just kills it...."  [+]  Reply

"This would easily be the greatest EP of all time if the last track didn't exist (although, it's a bit long for an EP). Every single song is a 10/10 in my books, which even my most favourite album of all time, Sgt. Pepper's, can't do. This album is so unbelievably amazing besides the risque last s..."  [+]  Reply
