"Prince's first album after abandoning The Revolution and in my opinion his best. The 80s weren't a great time for music from my perspective but this is definitely an outlier and my favorite album from that decade"  Reply

For the 10-15 years before this album, it was difficult to have anything other than a "gangsta" persona and be successful commercially. Kanye changed that. You could rap about insecurities, college, religion, and even touch on social issues in a fresh new light. Look at all the new school backpacker rappers that he has clearly helped pave a way for. Fittingly, the chorus to the first song on this album rings "WE DONT CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAYYY" And as much as people want to knock Ye' for his arrogance, without it, he wouldnt have the balls to make this or to walk into a "try-out" wearing a polo and backpack and impress Jay-Z enough to sign him. We wouldnt have the innovation musically he has largely caused in mainstream hip-hop production. His influence is enormous. I say thank god for Kanyes ego, otherwise we'd still be listening to 50 cent and washed up Dre beats, instead we're bumpin "CAN WE GET MUCH HIGHAH" nuff said. Favorite Tracks: We Dont Care, All Falls Down, New Workout Plan, Slow Jamz, Two Words, Through the Wire"  [+]  Reply

"The peak of Soundgarden's recording career. A brilliant masterpiece, one of the nineties great records. Black hole Sun, is obviously a standout, but there are a wealth of great songs here. My wave, spoonman, and, fell on black days, are all excellent. An album destined to be a classic."  Reply

I heard about this from Pitchforks glowing review. And then I listened to some stuff, and it sounded amazing. Then I bought the album and I listened to it several times. I've decided it is masterful. It's smooth and flows and all the elements of the album mingle incredibly. "Bad Religion" and "Thinking about you" are some stand outs, but again the whole record is fabulous. Huge fan! It just hits that good spot musically where it all makes sense. If you wanna hear a badass modern incarnation of Stevie and Marvin, this dude is great for that. But really he is his own man and his own style and this record can stand in its own 2 feet. Best album of year that I've heard and only in my opinion."  [+]  Reply

Take, for instance, the opening lines to the album's centerpiece, "Emily": "The meadowlark and the chim-choo-ree and the sparrow / Set to the sky in a flying spree, for the sport over the pharaoh / A little while later the Pharisees dragged comb through the meadow / Do you remember what they called up to you and me, in our window?" Somehow, in these lyrics, Newsom manages to weave together personal history, geographical and ecological specificity, and Biblical allusions that give the whole experience an ancient, mythical feel. This is creative, ambitious, brilliant stuff--the threads drawn together by an artist still in the early stages of her career. I cannot wait to see what she does in the years and decades to come."  [+]  Reply

Right from the offset, the idea that the two albums are opposite sides of the same coin is clear: where Slint's guitars screech, Talk Talk's lull; where McMahan's voice screams, Hollis' quivers. Spirit Of Eden is considered by many to be the culmination of Talk Talk's transformation from the new wave sound they first emerged with, and there's no denying the quality in tracks like Eden and I Believe In You. But for me, their swansong Laughing Stock captures the manic brilliance of the band right at the moment of their dissolution. Take opening track Myrrhman for example: Hollis' obscure and muted lyrics punctuated by dissonant and shapeless instrumentation might seem baffling, or even over-indulgent at first; I certainly used to think so. But by the end of its delicate and pained string section it becomes clear that the reason Talk Talk disorientated you was just so they could pick you apart all the more easily. Most of this is copied from the description of the album in my overall chart, do check it out if you have the time!!"  [+]  Reply

I actually had never heard of Bon Iver prior to seeing them featured on a cover of the Rolling Stone. I think I had heard of Justin Vernon though prior and the article had mentioned him working with Kanye, so that made me interested after seeing that. Gave a listen and Perth to me was an outstanding opener. I also got a chance to see them in concert and being five feet away from the speaker on this song was an awesome experience and really made me appreciate it even more haha. Minnesota, WI is another good song. I like the funky opening. A big problem though I have with the album is 1) A lot of it is hard to understand lyrically and I think that's the point. It is supposed to move you more through music. The lyrics are just a passenger on this album in the vehicle the music. And 2) Some of the lyrics like wtf do they mean. You need a theasaurus for some of it. In Minnesota, WI one of the lines is like Armour let it through borne the arboretic truth you kept posing...what's that mean? lol But some songs are beautiful with their words particularly Perth and Holocene. Holocene is one of the best songs I've ever heard. Might be a weird comparison but this to me is kind of like a indie folk version of Chrstopher Cross's song Sailing. Both are very soothing songs and hypnotic in their sound and make you appreciate living. The middle of the album is not fascinating and slows down a lot. Songs start to sound the same. Towers is good. I think it's about a relationship Justin had in college. Hinnom, TX, Wash. and Michicant probably the weakeest songs on the album. Calgary is by far Bon Iver's most underrated song and in looking at their catalog that could be the one that's most underappreciated. It's a good song especially when it picks up in the end. Lisbon, OH is a nice instrumenatal piece. It's a quiet song like you're walking in a downtown of some small town late at night. Vernon does a good job with the instrumental tracks. Team from For Emma is phenomonal and one of the best instrumental tracks I've heard. Lastly, the album closes with Beth/Rest, which is very hit or miss to listeners. I love it. It's got a very late 80's sound to it and I tend to like that kind of music. It reminds me of Bruce Hornsby and the song in theme actually reminds me a lot of his closing song the Red Plains on the Way it is. Lyrically, again it's a very tough song to decipher, but I think the ultimate message is that the memories you have with people will always be there, even if you're no longer in contact with the person. It's not for everyone, but I'm a fan of this album. It's a very soothing album and Vernon does a good job depicting place and time in his songs. This is the album that made me a fan of Vernon's. Bon Iver's future kind of looks up in the air now, but I'm looking forward to the rest of Vernon's career. "  [+]  Reply

So begins this album's fantastic title track, a song that may sum up the peculiar situation of the millenial generation. I'm not a millenial, but to a degree I think we can all identify with that final sentiment: that our culture rewards individual achievement when what really delivers meaningful happiness is a sense that we're part of something larger than ourselves. I've never seen Fleet Foxes live, and I'm not sure if I ever will with the band on indefinite hiatus, but I'd like to sing that song at the top of my lungs in a room full of people."  [+]  Reply

They have decided to change their style up from the first album and create a more grandeur sound and it really pays off. The rich instrumentation is a joy to listen to and so in depth that you can keep coming back and exploring more which is such a difficult feat to accomplish. The keyboard on this album is brilliant and is utilised just right to create the effect they are going for. The string arrangements are delicate and beautiful but also quick and aggressive and they aid in some fantastic tempo switches. Then there is the wind instruments which are performed phenomenally and are vital to this album as they create a lot of the sonic landscape on most tracks. Finally, the vocals and lyrics are outstanding and Isaac has massively improved his penmanship and vocal control. He weaves his way through his words creating a brilliant narrative on every song he is on and slowly builds up to these grand conclusions that are very rewarding for the listener. There is a lot of risks and experimentation on this album and I think it really pays off with the music sounding so rich and luxurious. There are no weak tracks and this album is consistently stunning. Overall, you could tell from their debut that this group had so much to offer and this demonstrates exactly that, as this record is just incredible. It is unfortunate to hear about Isaac leaving the band as this group is oozing potential and if they carried on the way they were going they could possibly be the greatest band of all time and possibly create the greatest album ever recorded as this one comes very close.
