"Ah, feist of the apple commercial. With "the reminder", she brings "mushaboom" quality to most of the album. i wish she could bring more of her personality to broken social scene, because the playful warmth on "i feel it all", "my moon my man", "sealion" and the aforementioned "1, 2, 3, 4" are in..."

"Part of the middle-era Tom Waits trilogy along with Swordfishtrombone and Rain Dogs. This album is usually considered the lowest of the 3 because it is the only one that has "weak" spots. I concede that point. Originally released as a double album in its original vinyl format it dose have moments..." [+] Reply

"The debut from Jack and Meg is a raw, stripped down, electric guitar and drum, in your face affair that plain kicks ass. And there's 17 tracks of it, none longer than 3:22. So even though the songs mostly have a similar feel to them, the album moves right along and keeps the energy going right th..." [+] Reply

"Much more musically varied than Pure Comedy, which to my ears is a good thing. There's less of a concept here though, which I'm also fine with. The songs are, as usual, thoughtful, intense, philosophical and hilarious. Jonathan Wilson's production is also brilliant, as always. I really want to ha..." [+] Reply

"This was the first Queen album for me having bought into their singles at that time. It prompted me to get their back catalogue and I found some excellent work back there. They are a top band with songs that everyone sings probably without always knowing who they are. This album gave us Radio GaG..." [+] Reply

"Although a bit rough around the edges, Wolf Alice have definitely found a successful formula. The vocals and instrumentals vary; at times they're soft and sweet (Turn to Dust, Bros, Swallowtail), at others they're harsh and intense (You're a Germ, Giant Peach). At all times, Wolf Alice keep the m..." [+] Reply

"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
