"First things first: this is not hip-hop, it's grime. And it's probably not even the most necessary grime document (that title probably belongs to a pirate radio set, or maybe More Fire Crew's 'Pow'), but it is far and away the genre's best album. The production is cold and minimal, and Dizzee is ..."  [+]  Reply

"*Sigh*. This album is complete trash. I like all of the songs from 'Electric Blue' to 'We Don't Deserve Love' (the latter being a song that I love, which may be surprising given the rating that I gave the album), but the rest of the album completely fails. 'Chemistry' gets a bad rap, it's bad, bu..."  [+]  Reply

""Love at First Feel," "Problem Child," "Squealer," "Big Balls," the title track...this album is filled with fun, rocking AC/DC gems. You know their formula...and this album doesn't stray from it. I see that as a positive thing. Coca-Cola tried changing it's recipe and it ended in disaster. Not al..."  [+]  Reply

"The songs, such as they are, are long and have little structure, the production is murky and raw and harrowing, the tempo is unchanging to the point of testing endurance. There is no joy or even solace to be found in this record, only unforgiving turmoil. It is a traumatic realisation of the hope..."  [+]  Reply

"A Salty Dog was the last Procol Harum album to feature the original 5-piece line-up. Compared to the previous two, which were very much dominated by Gary Booker's songs and vocals ( not a negative thing at all ), more space is given to guitarist Robin Trower and organist Matthew Fisher. Robin Tro..."  [+]  Reply

"This is one of Paul McCartney's most interesting albums. Chaos and creation, is predominantly acoustic in sound, and is much more challenging in structure than most McCartney records, maybe only his self titled albums from 1970 and 1980 compare. Having said that, the songs here are much more thou..."  [+]  Reply

"This is my favorite album by Low. Kicks off with the wonderful Sunflower before plodding along nicely. Then just when you feel the album needs a bit of an injection you get it with July which starts a run of incredible songs all the way to the end. great stuff"  Reply

"Fantastic album, criminally underrated - how this isn't even in the top 1000 confounds me. This album perhaps sees the Lips at their most versatile, the album with the most dynamic range - rocking hard on one song to creating astounding beautiful music on the next and not a weak track here (well,..."  [+]  Reply

"Always liked PJ, but this album completely won we over for her. It is radical departure from the explosive debut albums, but the aggression or passion is still very much there, although much more hidden. She uses her voice in a different way, very much at the limit of her reach. Daring and haunti..."  [+]  Reply
