"Has some great parts, but some mediocre parts drag it down a bit. The bass and drum solos are too long and rambling, yet I would say Ornette's soloing stands out (minutes 10-19)"  Reply

"It’s a good album and for the most part, it’s a solid project. Is it the best J. Cole project? I think Friday Night Lights is better but this one is up there. He was smart to make project without any feats. I personally don’t like feats, when I hear a hip hop album, I’m there to hear it all from ..."  [+]  Reply

"This record together with Soundgardens "Down on the upside" was symptoms of an era that was about to end. The newer era, Britpop, was already rising, and people were about to have enough of the harsh and dark metal sound, and prefered another more quiet and soft sound (Radiohead), when it came to..."  [+]  Reply

"In many ways, this album is better than "faith". Where "faith" was more immediately-grabbing, "vol.1" is more complex and emotionally/musically layered. His covers (including a b-side elton cover) nail those songs' sentiment. G.Michael attempts to show us there's more than a tight @ss behind his ..."  [+]  Reply

"One of Kiss' most ambitious albums. Destroyer, with production by Bob Ezrin helped to add a bit of bombast and orchestration to the cartoon rock'n'roll. The record sleeve is perfect for the contents inside, and some enjoyable tracks in, Detroit rock city(still one of Kiss' best songs), shout it o..."  [+]  Reply

"It isn't my thing. I don't enjoy this type of music much, but this album excels at what it does, so I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the xx or this genre of music. I'll be sharing it with my friends who I know love this type of music because it is excellent for what it is, but pe..."  [+]  Reply

"Pretty consistent album. I think it lacks a killer track, but it's nice to listen from start to finish. If you like Interpol you have to check it out Best tracks: Lights, Munich, All Sparks, Blood, Bullets"  Reply
