"Some have grumbled that "Modern Guilt" is minor Beck. Sure it doesn't twist your mind into as many shapes as its predecessor ("The Information"), provide the perfect soundtrack for cruising through Los Angeles ("Guero") or open your ears to the enormous sonic possibi..."  [+]  Reply

"Im surprised twenty one pilots could make an album as great as this to be honest, they have matured a lot musically since there early more mainstream stuff. The production is very consistent from start to finish and some of the ideas on here are really interesting and work so well, such as the so..."  [+]  Reply

"I read about some guy who, on a hot summers night, would play this on an expensive sound system in his living room and open the doors onto his garden and the crickets would all swarm around the patio chirping in harmony with it."  Reply

"The first of the Gil Evans collaborations. Years ago, I would get baked during baseball's playoffs and watch the games with the sound off and Miles Ahead playing. It was uncanny how many times the ebb and flow of the game matched the music. Or maybe it was just the weed."  Reply

"The production maintains this cold, artificial, alien, minimal sound - at times it comes close to sounding too empty, but it never does, it manages to keep your interest throughout the whole running time of the album, not to mention there are tracks like I'm Destructive that provide a welcome -if..."  [+]  Reply

"I have no idea why this album's not more highly regarded; it's an amazing debut, and my second favorite Queen record (behind Sheer Heart Attack). Really not a bad song here, and "My Fairy King," "Jesus," "Doing All Right," "Modern Times Rock 'n' Roll," and "Son & Daughter" are innovative, superio..."  [+]  Reply
