"I can't remember the last time I gave an album a 90 on first listen. I think the last time was Blue, which ended up as my number 1 album. This is just incredible songwriting, the lo-fi aspect serves to enhance the emotions presented in the words and the music and isn't there just for the sake of ..." [+] Reply

"Immediately launching into attack, the guitars of Rick Froberg and John Reiss converge relentlessly, building a case for one of the all time great math rock/punk records. It's technical without being showy. Songs suffocate when they need to, and also breathe when necessary." Reply

"This album is brilliant. It’s harsh like you would expect from her but also incredibly beautiful with elements of folk. Not to mention the incredible journey she takes you through the lens of Christianity that’s just as beautiful as it is horrifying. This is a must listen for sure whether you hav..." [+] Reply

"It is album that takes five to six listening before it start to grow on you. Possible not my favourite type of music, but still some lovely tunes on it.

"As much as I love Q-Tip and company, the crew at Tribe might be pansies compared to Pharcyde. Sometimes the lyrics here go a bit too far, but production-wise, I can't think of a better non-Kanye rap album. It's as jazzy as jazz-rap could be." Reply

"Very good album. I relate this to Hurry Up, We're Dreaming from last year. Fairly long, double album, with one colossus song, and a whole bunch of pretty decent ones. Few unnecessary instrumental tracks though, and a bit long. Overall, as of April 7th 2012, probably the best album of the year so ..." [+] Reply

"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 ..."
