"Too late to fall in love with this now, I'm afraid. Back in the day they would've been a great gateway band to The Slits and some cool math rock. Still, the songs sound fresh and convey genuine feeling. And despite the mathy arrangements the grooves are pretty agreeable - they clearly prefer the ..." [+] Reply

"Any Pepper album with Frusciante is better than an album without. So Mother's Milk lands 5th in their catalogue for me. This is a band still figuring out their identity with the wrong producer that wants their sound heavier than it should be. This album hits and misses as they search for what the..." [+] Reply

"i really dug "cee-lo green is the soul machine". It's the kind of smart, fun, playful rap i hadn't heard since p.m. dawn. Kinda reminded me of de la soul too. i also really dug what dj dangermouse did with jay-z's black album. Some moshes didn't work but when they did, like on "Helter Skelter" it..." [+] Reply

"Definitely revolves around "You Really Got Me", which was hugely influential in creating the hard rock sound. But there are a lot of great "forgotten" songs here, most notably Stop Sobbing and I Took My Baby Home. The cover of Beautiful Delilah is insanely sped up and heavy for it's time." Reply

"This album is pretty good, maybe a little long, but I would say it is almost the same level as American Idiot." Reply

"As a stand alone album this is pretty decent, in comparison to the debut it is pretty poor. Looking back now, the 4-5 year wait after the debut seemed like a lifetime and it ended in disappointment of course, but when I think of music 5 years ago from today it only seems like yesterday - the joys..."

"The prolific Shabaka Hutchings (Melt Yourself Down, The Shabaka And The Ancestors, The Comet Is Coming...) returns in 2018 with one of his many projects, Sons Of Kemet. "Your queen is a reptile" is a concept album denouncing the imperialism and injustice of the British monarchy. They celebrate he..." [+] Reply

"I will shamelessly admit I had no idea who Mdou Moctar is prior to listening to this album, so you can easily imagine it was quite the experience, something like a punch in the face. The first thing I noticed is that - in my opinion at least - the production’s handling is exemplary. Despite addin..." [+] Reply
