"Very good - not as groundbreaking as ASATT but not a step backwards at all; maybe a step to the side, or a jog in place. Faves were Jerrod, Sound of Rain, and Time (Is)." Reply

"Honestly this is where Pantera loses me just a little. The vocals take a turn that is too guttural for me. Almost screaming. I just prefer his angry, yet clear vocals." Reply

"When I think about misunderstood albums, this is the one I always think of. Perhaps that’s because of what QOTSA where when the recorded this album; Songs for the Deaf is one of the all-time best straight rock albums, I’d recommend it but chances are you already have it. Era Vulgaris is not a str..." [+] Reply

"I've heard some people call this better than Band on the Run. Can't say I agree, but it is a damn good record that is a high point for Wings. Particularly the first 6-7 tracks are fab. And it's immaculately produced. There's a great article about Paul being a pop auteur, and I think I can get beh..." [+] Reply

"R.E.M.'s best release. The only weak cut is "Stumble". The rest is basically perfect. The songs are energized (even on the sections where things seem to be quiet) to the point where it all sounds psychotic. Stipe's hooks are wonderful and always unpredictable, and Peter Buck's riffs are so good t..." [+] Reply

"I'm not much of a hip-hop fan, but this album had me straight up addicted for a long time. I'd listened to aseop in highschool during the "none shall pass" era, but stopped for years. When I looked him up and found this newest album I was blown away by how someone I thought had perfected his craf..." [+] Reply

"Released in 1984, this album had a profound impact on my burgeoning music tastes. Not necessarily because it’s particularly good (I’ll get to that) but rather how it opened my eyes and ears to the world of 4AD which in turn lead me to artists such as Big Star, The Cocteau Twins, Belly, Bauhaus, D..."

"Sludgy, Sabbathy, Doom Metal. This album rocks. Definitely the Melvins "big record company" album, but still very enjoyable. However, don't buy into the idea Kurt Cobain had much to do with this album... It was basically all Buzz and Dale." Reply
