"After the breakup of DOOM's old band KMD, caused by the death of his brother and bandmate Subroc, DOOM (or Zen Love X as he was called at the time) went into a time of alcoholism and near homelessness. After some time he decided to get his shit together and return to the hip hop scene. He would w..." [+] Reply

"A comprehensive conclusion in catharsis and joy Jim O'Rourke has never ceased to confuse me. The more I learn, the less I know, but I guess that's with anything. I think I first discovered this album through BEA on some random chart I can’t remember. I was, like most, visibly and audibly shocked ..." [+] Reply

"It’s a good album and for the most part, it’s a solid project. Is it the best J. Cole project? I think Friday Night Lights is better but this one is up there. He was smart to make project without any feats. I personally don’t like feats, when I hear a hip hop album, I’m there to hear it all from ..." [+] Reply

""Beyond the Realms of Death" is perfect, and one of the best Judas Priest songs. It's guitar solo is the most finest example of Tipton and Downing's musical abilities." Reply

"Although a bit rough around the edges, Wolf Alice have definitely found a successful formula. The vocals and instrumentals vary; at times they're soft and sweet (Turn to Dust, Bros, Swallowtail), at others they're harsh and intense (You're a Germ, Giant Peach). At all times, Wolf Alice keep the m..." [+] Reply

"Brilliant album still holding up after 40 years. I refuse to call The Three Fates a Keith Emerson composition though, it is clearly ripped right off of Gershwin. Imagine what they had sounded like if Hendrix hadn't died and indeed had joined the band instead." Reply

"After hearing their first album (which was ok but mostly just felt like a compilation of pop singles), I was pleasantly surprised by this record... In many places, it uses 80s synthpop elements and re-invigorates them with the band's rougher, weirder edges to get a really addicting sound (Love Me..." [+] Reply

"Album rating - 72, average track rating - 79. Hmm. 7/10 is probably fair though. The people bashing this album hard are enjoying being on the bandwagon of 'watching the strokes' slow and painful death', when if a new band had released this they would probably have reasonably enjoyed it." Reply
