"Hugely underrated. One of, if not, their best album. Strong from start to finish, the complete Depeche Mode sound." Reply

"Dirty Back Road, Private Idaho, (the madness of) Quiche Lorraine and Devil In My Car are the best of a pretty consistent bunch of tracks. Enjoyable album that I think I'm more inclined to pick up and listen to than their self-titled first. Nothing outstanding but good B-52s none the less." Reply

"This album demands time and attention, but my goodness it rewards it. Some songs initially sound like aimless wailing and take time to reveal their melodies, but when they do they're absolutely gorgeous. Indeed the whole album is transcendent. The person who described it as sounding like Coldplay..." [+] Reply

"Dylan's last album of original material up to 2016. Again, it's got a similar feel to all his recent records. It's got some good stuff on here, and some not so good. Best tracks are the lovely, soon after midnight, the angry, pay in blood, and the excellent, scarlet town. Thankfully, Dylan, keeps..." [+] Reply

"So far the best Bad Religion album I've heard. Much better than the previous ones. Much more varied, and very interesting lyrics. Oh, and about the re-release of what became later their biggest hit, 21st Century Digital Boy, there's one good and one bad: One bad: The original version is better. O..." [+] Reply

"Check out this album with an open mind, whether you think you may like Van Halen or not. "Fair Warning" isn't a party like "Van Halen" and doesn't have something for everyone like "1984." It has a cynical, streetwise, skateboard punk attitude, and funk grooves in almost every song. It's been only..." [+] Reply

"Really enjoyed "Pendulum", "Ominous Cloud", and "Before We Begin" along with other songs. Overall good album but started losing momentum for me towards the end." Reply
