"Sting's first, and best, solo record. While I can't imagine The Police performing this material, Sting was still writing very good songs and using this as a platform for his own distinctive sound. His later efforts would be much more MOR, and much less interesting. Best cuts: the bluesy "Consider..." [+] Reply

"My 3rd favorite album is a actually punk rock trilogy spanning several decades if that is allowed - The Clash "London Calling" (1979) which inspired Rancid's "...And Out Come the Wolves" (1995) which inspired Agent 51's "Red Alert" (1998). Each stands as a monument in time. The name Wolves seems ..." [+] Reply

"Growing up ain’t easy. Not even for rich college kids. And it seems our boys have had their hearts handed to them once or twice since their shimmering debut. There is a haze of melancholy that hangs over this album. Plus, the crisp pace and immediacy of the debut is traded in for a more lazy, non..." [+] Reply

"This was the perfect follow up to Reign in Blood. They were never going to top the fury of that album, but by taking it down a notch they showed a different side and it worked well." Reply

"This is a strange album. I have to say I don’t think I’ve ever really heard a band have a sound quite like this. I’ve heard some similar, but this is definitely unique. It’s electronic, it’s avant-garde and it’s rock all in one. It’s incoherent, yet somehow there’s some kind of coherency within i..." [+] Reply
