"A smooth and easy listening album that is very pleasant to listen too. It is a little more country than most Neil Young albums and so if you enjoy that side you will definitely love this album. The vocals are great as always and there is a little extra on this one with the help of a backing vocal..." [+] Reply

"I've put off listening to 'Guts' for a while, purely just because of how much an album like this inevitably gets overhyped by the media, and by friends raving on about how I should listen to it. Once the dust has settled, I like to try and form my own opinion... and it's pretty much as I expected..." [+] Reply

"Tom waits orphans, subtitled, brawlers, bawlers and bastards, is a 3cd collection of unreleased and new songs.

"The title track is honestly one of the best songs I've ever heard. Fantastic album to go along with it, but I could listen to that song forever." Reply

"A great album in Streetlight Manifesto's intense style. Contains some creative songwriting with well-thought out musical production. Highlights are "Point Counterpoint" and "A Better Place, A Better Time."" Reply
"Contains four tracks that was to begin their run of twenty consecutive top 20 hits, making them one of the top 5 most successful artists of 80's chart history. "The Prince"(16), "One Step Beyond"(7), "My Girl"(3) and "Night Boat To Cairo"(6) all made it big but there are still more epic tracks on..." [+] Reply

"Baez is an important figure in the American folk revival and the development of folk rock, so some awareness of her is important. This is her debut album, and works well enough to give good idea of her singing and her style. It is also widely regarded as her most significant album. The songs are ..." [+] Reply

"If this band died young they would've been worshipped. In the vein of The Rolling Stones, and Morissey, they continue on, making corporate, egotistical asses of themselves. Especially Corey Taylor, the guy is several miles up his own ass. I'm no expert on nu-metal. I tend to gravitate towards mor..." [+] Reply
