"I've been looking for a Black Keys album that worked for me. I am pretty sure this is the one. It's got the rawness of the earlier albums but with better production" Reply

"This record is good, but the songs are just to damn long. In my opinion, if they had cut the majority of them down to under 5 and a half minutes, then I think it would be a 90. Also, the clipping throughout is really unfortunate." Reply

"Britrock that goes down both a psych avenue and a mystic guru road. Good mix of some up tempo songs along with your eastern sounding transcendence tracks." Reply

"This is probably the only album or set of albums that I don't want to touch. Not because it's bad. No, far from the contrary. Listening to some snip-its from this are quite jaw dropping on how potent they are. But for people who know what this album is about, there is something that feels uncanny..." [+] Reply
"Most people call "Symbolic" Death's best album but in my opinion this album matches, if not surpasses, that album's quality" Reply

"An underrated masterpiece. Red, Powder Blue, Newborn, Asleep in the Back, Scattered Black and White are all breathtaking. Amazed it's not rated higher; Radiohead fans should like this one." Reply

"I had quite a bit of trepidation going into FTPoF. The singles were a bit mixed for me, and even my favorite of the bunch ("Your Mind Is Not Your Friend") probably wouldn't crack my top 15 or 20 National songs. Not to mentoin the early reception for this one has been somewhat tepid. So, I'm happy..." [+] Reply

"This is brilliant, think they might even have improved on Attack on Memory. Sounds more cohesive, the singer isn't as grating as he could get on that album, the songs are all melodic and accessible while maintaining a pretty raw sound. Pattern Walks is my favourite track here, with its You Made M..." [+] Reply

"I am one of a few who enjoys the later Genesis as much as the earlier Genesis. I really like this album, it has quite a typical eighties feel about it. The opening track has a very simple sequencedsynth bass line which was a foundation for many eighties bands, so you can't blame the boys for embr..." [+] Reply
