"'56:b ...then this shit is X! “Did you hear me scream?” – Black Francis I LOVE Elvis. I’m not coming for his crown. Not ever. BUT, Johnny Burnette and his gang of delinquents positively destroys Elvis’ debut LP (and anything else Elvis ever put out.) If the big news back in 1956 was that Elvis wa..." [+] Reply

"So right now A Day In The Life is the best song by The Beatles, The 8th best song by The Beatles, and the 19th best song by The Beatles. Literally why." Reply

"In the spring of 1994, a group of friends and I followed Uncle Tupelo around New England on what turned out to be their final tour. They were playing small venues then, so much so that by the third show, they were giving us comp tickets and inviting us to join them on their tour bus to play Sega ..." [+] Reply

"With this album, Genesis had finally tipped the scale in favor of pop: they were now more pop than prog, and fans weren't too pleased. I actually like the new direction: every song on here is shamelessly catchy and none of them blow me away musically, but I can still tell that this band that coul..." [+] Reply

"This record is just wonderful. A very unique brand of rap with so many phenomenal twists of phrase. The accompanying music is equally as engaging, the drums not the least of which. I think it's fair to draw some comparisons to To Pimp A Butterfly, especially musically although nothing is contrive..." [+] Reply

"Billed as The Costello Show, king of America, is Elvis Costello's Americana album. Costello had tried to capture an authentic stateside sound on his country covers LP, almost blue, but where as that album sounded forced and phony, king of America, sounds real and lived in. It features probably Co..." [+] Reply

"This album makes Art Angels look like an outlier in her discography cuz this feels like a closer sonic successor to Visions. It pulls back on a lot of the bombast of Art Angels, for better or worse, but its not necessarily a decline in quality. But that also makes it easier to explore, fall in lo..." [+] Reply

"There's exactly 4 good tracks on this album. But with most songs over 5 minutes and 4 even over 7 minutes this album is simply to long for its own good and especially near the end it even becomes a bit boring. But overall an ok My Morning Jacket album." Reply

"While my tastes generally synchronize with BEA's, in some occasions I find we divulge, and this seems to be the case now. This album is magnificent (as well as Kaputt), and seems to be, in my opinion, just as strong as any of Radiohead's best work. Bejar sings with a dynamic fervor that easily ca..." [+] Reply
