"I don't know... I don't find this album as experimental as music critics are hailing it to be. Rosalia as always is an impressive vocalist and an interesting arranger of flamenco, but after the massive conceptual leap from the conventional – and for a while a mostly under the radar release – Los ..."  [+]  Reply

"The only album I've heard by the band thus far. Atlantic is fantastic, but the rest is just a tad too poppy for me. Still good, though. EDIT: I'm getting into this album alot more now; the songs are well constructed and the keyboards and electronics add a nice atmosphere to it. It's definitely in..."  [+]  Reply

"Tori Amos kicks arse in a raw, confessional style. She's vaj-with-teeth (per se). She demonstrates what is beautiful and strong and vulnerable about women. "God" is the best track off of this album. ("God sometimes you just don't come through.") She's not as impenetrably raw as Kate Bush. She doe..."  [+]  Reply

"In addition to "The Funeral", the last 3 tracks are also phenomenal with "Monsters" being one of my favorite songs EVER! With those 4 amazing tracks, the rest of the songs could've been a collection of fart noises and I still would have loved this album. Luckily for the listener the other tracks ..."  [+]  Reply

"In 1978 the Queen band came up with an more relaxed and unpretentious album. Although without the complexity of previous albums, JAZZ are one of the most enjoyable albuns of the band. "Don´t Stop Me Now", "Leaving Home Ain't Easy" and my favorite "In Only Seven Days", with sweet and beautiful mel..."  [+]  Reply

"One of the few albums where I like the second half more than the first. Of course, "Lucretia my Reflection" and "This Corrosion," are the hits, but from "Flood II" onward it's all frosty darkwave to match the album art. Recommended for a moonlit winter stroll."  Reply

"This is actually quite an underrated album. It's certainly Faith no more's most diverse and eclectic album. It features all kinds of sounds from metal to country, from funk to ballads, all delivered in that unique FNM way. A very good album, you may not realise how good it actually is."  Reply

"I was disappointed when this album was first release: it's so electronic! Not heavy at all! Where's the guitar?!? I felt like my favorite band had betrayed me. As the years went by, though, I began to see the great strengths of this album. There is some stellar songwriting, lots of great layering..."  [+]  Reply

"Ryan Adams may be a pretentious prick, but the man can write a song, no question about it. When he's not putting out multiple albums per year, and focuses, albums like this can happen. This sounded great right when it came out, I ranked this #5 in my 2002 rankings originally, and it only sounds b..."  [+]  Reply
