"A good follow up to, Diamond life. Promise, is a much more jazzy affair than it's predecessor with the use of brass much more prominent. Nice performances on this perfect late night, lights down album. Very good." Reply

"This was the first M83 album I bought and it turned out to be completely worth it. Every song here feels like it has its own personality and draws out different emotions from me that almost feels like they bring back great memories that I've forgotten. Forgo, Saturday = Youth does what title says..." [+] Reply

"JIGSAW PUZZLE Finally! Someone loves The Cure and 80s college rock as much as me. Thank you, Jack Tatum, for this absolute gift of an album. One giant homage to the 80s college rock of my youth. Just like me, every guitar line, every bass line, every drum fill has become a part of Jack’s DNA . Th..." [+] Reply

"More orchestral than their predecessor, and more heightened moments. There's not much in it, but I think this album goes places Tired Sounds does not." Reply

"I think of this album more like spoken poetry. There is a strong presence of the literary tradition in this album, and then you have the impressive rhythmical guitar that comes with the lyrics and there you have it: an impressive collection of songs created by one of the most important folk singe..."

"It's pretty rare album art draws me in this deep. I just did a very cursory review of some of my collection, and none of the art hits me like this one. Dare I say, side by side, it makes a lot of album art look like just something that everyone sends with an album because they have to. I like the..." [+] Reply

"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

"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

"The first two songs are the best by far here. 'Fear is a Man's Best Friend' is like a ship going down in the sea of misery and everyone just likes to sing along. Most artists thesedays who would have wrote a song with that title would have made it a plodding acoustic guitar whimper piece. Here it..." [+] Reply
