"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
"Not as good as any of the Gorillaz releases, but I love it all the same. Herculean and the title track make the album." Reply

"Beyonce's follow-up to Renaissance has been characterized as Queen Bey's "country album." Not outside the realm of possibility as she's flirted with it on early records--not to mention she's from Texas; Beynoce is for sure familiar with country. Though she typically dabbles in contemporary trends..." [+] Reply

"it saddens me that this album hasn't even broke the top 1,000. lupe is so over-looked as an artist its not even funny, lyricism is mirrored by none, the modern-age Nas. I firmly believe it's one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time, the 2nd best of the 2000s after marshall mathers lp." 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
