"Not many bands or artists have successfully reinvented their sound over and over like Arctic Monkeys. It’s not as much of a departure in style as TBHC was to AM, but there is a clear evolution from their 2018 sci fi themed concept album. The Car is a beautiful and rewarding listen, and you have t..."

"Imagine, if you will, a giant rollercoaster that lasts for about 35 minutes. Except there's no delay for going up. You're basically going down down down, upside-down, left, down, down, DOWN the whole time. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh!!!! (there should have been more !!!!s in this review) There is lik..." [+] Reply

"If we consider the context in which this album was made it is a miracle to have Learning to Fly, Sorrow, One Slip, Dogs of War and On the Turning Away gathered in "Momentary Lapse". In my opinion they are good songs and reflect a great change in Pink Floyd's way to compose and record new stuff. S..." [+] Reply

"Wonderful album! Definitely one of my favorite electronic albums. I consider it one of my top 100 as well. It's trippy, it's chill, it's upbeat and peaceful all at once." Reply

"An impressive collection of beats. I confess that I don't understand dance music or club culture whatsoever, but as Leftism managed to make it accessible and enjoyable to even a simpleton such as myself, that's got to be worth something!" Reply

"The Doobies would probably not be anybody's list of important or influential artists but this is my favourite album at present. I was drawn to it by the hit singles China Grove & Long train Running but soon found there was so much more. South City Midnight Lady is Patrick Simmons' greatest song a..." [+] Reply

"Electro-house or IDM, if you're accustomed to such genre classifications, then you'll have an idea what's going on with Disclosure. To (possibly) give you an idea of what they sound like: 01) "when a fire starts to burn" sounds like a behaving death grips atop ibiza, 02) "latch" sounds like sharo..." [+] Reply
