"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

"A slight step above the previous two albums - it's certainly a great album, and probably above average compared to DT's other work. The album leans more on the soft side than the heavy side, but that's fine with me. Each track brings something interesting to the table, and I don't feel like any t..." [+] Reply

"These guys once played on the shore of the Arctic Ocean with Metallica for a bunch of Inuit kids and Molson contest winners. Could you imagine? A hell of a show, I'm sure." Reply

"Excellent album, a different record to the first but equally as intriguing. Pure excitement over the first few listens I must admit. "Heavenward" is just pure dreamy, "Yuk Foo", "Planet Hunter", "Formidable Cool", "Sadboy" my other favorites and Visions of a Life I just want that track to go on f..." [+] Reply

"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

"No track really stands out on this record like certain show-stoppers on "Ten Love Songs", but Susanne Sundfør has crafted an elegant art pop / chamber folk record that maintains its melancholic yet hopeful mood extremely well and transcends the "pleasant but not much more" critique that other art..."

"Joe Cocker bursts into the late 60s with a soulful collection, channeling Ray Charles and baring his Soul with a Capital "S". In listening to this album for the first time there were times when I thought I had mistakenly put on a Brother Ray disc. "Bye Bye Blackbird" sounds like Charles could hav..." [+] Reply

"the polar opposite of trout mask.. only 4 or 5 notes in the piece, could be construed as simplistic, but it has such a hypnotic effect.. and each time a new bit of instrumentation comes in.. ahhhh.... fuck, i'm getting weirder by the day." Reply

"This album has successfully managed to open my eyes (or ears rather..) to metal vocals. I've never liked metal vocals, EVER. This one did it for me. After the first couple listens I kept telling myself that an instrumental version of the album would be perfect, however every listen since then has..." [+] Reply

"The fact that this album was played ad nauseum for a year or two, and features Santana partnering with Rob Thomas (gag!) overshadows the actual quality here. It's slick, overproduced and a little shallow, but it's still decent. Not worthy of the hype at the time, but not worth a huge backlash eit..." [+] Reply
