"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

"Lynyrd Skynyrd's second album is an excellent follow up to their brilliant debut. Kicking off with the band's most successful single, sweet home Alabama, a rock classic, the record never lets up. Workin'for MCA, is a great cynical look at the music business, don't ask me no questions, is a strong..."  [+]  Reply

"This album present to us something we would never think about. the good side of the sad breakup of Oasis. On his gigs, Noel always starts with "(It's Good) To Be Free" and this contrasts with the freedom of his talent with the end of Oasis. The best songs of Noel Gallagher since the end of the 90..."  [+]  Reply

"This is just Tom Waits doing what Tom Waits does best. Making incredible music. He’s never been one to soar across the radio and be incredibly well known, but those who do know him can really appreciate his genius. He’s got a voice that one may call an acquired taste, but if you can look past tha..."  [+]  Reply

"This album was an experience. It's not an album to be listened to passively, but one to give your full attention to. The night I first listened to it, not once through, but three times, will forever be burned into my brain. At times the music overwhelms you, and that's exactly the point."  Reply
