"One of those debuts where all the pieces are there, and there are even a few strong highlights, but there's plenty of room for improvement. Luckily, we know just how much room The Cure is able to find moving forward. Relative to their highs, it's hard not to see Three Imaginary Boys as much more ..." [+] Reply

"Heard it 3 times here is my reaction after each listen: 1st- Nice heartland rock (its ok) 2nd- damn some of these tracks are getting me emotional. I think i understand the themes of the albums a bit more. 3rd- Give me War on Drugs music straight in my veins! Try not to get teary eyed! Favorite al..." [+] Reply

"Fantastic album by the Keys, easily one of their best. Some of their best songs are on here, and there isn't a bad song in the bunch. By this point they had developed into one of the best rock bands in the business." Reply

"This album is another great release by Kings of Leon. I hope to see it higher in the ranks in the future along with their 1st and 2nd albums. My Party is the weak link in this album for me, but it still isn't a bad song and the album as a whole is awesome. This album had a more heavy rock and gru..." [+] Reply

"People won't belive me if I say that this is superior to F sharp A sharp infinity or Lift yr Skinny Fists. But as every is entitled to like whatever he wants, I like this more than these albums, but I don't trust anyone who rates this less than 3 stars" Reply

"This is a sentimental favorite for sure, but there are a ton of great ideas here. It's a thought-out, well made pop album. There are the theatrics for which Panic! have become so famous. The songwriting isn't groundbreaking, but they shake it up (and we listen.) I have to love this album, and I d..." [+] Reply

Feelin Good and I Put a Spell on You are both incredible songs and it's nice to see Simone give a nod to an amazing artist like Brel (she has an admirable accent for an American but as a French-speaking..."

"Jeff Lynne was a popmeister. Confusion and Don't Bring Me Down were brilliant in that right but tracks like Midnight Blue cemented this as another solid outing by a band that was unabashedly Beatles-esque... yet not." Reply

"It sounds like they've actually thought about every single element of their music and presentation. Pulling elements from every decade and as many different genres as they can. It's probably the best thing I've heard from a new band/artist since Arlo Parks debut and the best record of 2024...so far." [+] Reply
