"Production was really good throughout, which I didn't really expect. Especially towards the end from the instrumental track onwards. As expected, Earl delivers as a lyricist, though thematically this album seems all over the place and without a clear direction. Earl's flow and delivery, always a ..."  [+]  Reply

"This is actually a lot better than I anticipated, and almost the opposite of what I expected sound wise. I really thought the band would go in a more pop-direction on this album with all the recent success, but they didn't. In fact, they almost went the opposite direction with more laid out garag..."  [+]  Reply

"Masterfully written and engaging. I'm not even a huge fan of things on the fringe of folk/country, but I love almost every song on this album. This is probably my favorite release from Waxahatchee, and Fire might be my song of the year so far. Favorite tracks: Fire, Ruby Falls, Arkadelphia, St. C..."  [+]  Reply

"I really like this album as it has focus and direction which was not on a few of their previous outings. My favourite would have to be Childhood's End - great feel, awesome lyrics and a typically haunting Gilmour solo."  Reply

"I love Kieran Ebden's positive-vibed, light-infused down tempo electronica. It makes for a nice contrast to his sometimes collaborator, Burial, who has a darker, broodier downtempo feel. As such they make for a perfect yin-yang album collection to simply chill out to depending on your mood. Round..."  [+]  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

"When these sisters nail a pop/rock song, they do so just as good if not better than female-fronted artists of the 80s like fleetwood mac and the bangles. I think it was a pitchfork article that brought my attention to how much their music seems influenced by music of 1987, or the late 80s to be l..."  [+]  Reply

"“I have discovered that it is enough when a single note is beautifully played. This one note, or a silent beat, or a moment of silence, comforts me. I work with very few elements - with one voice, two voices. I build with primitive materials - with the triad, with one specific tonality. The three..."  [+]  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
