"Sounds like Porcupine Tree in Master's Apprentices for a while. Predicts the album Storm Corrosion well! This is a fun ride indeed!" Reply
"Less of an album to listen to and more of an album to invite into your presence, allowing it to accompany you as you walk, or sleep, or write, etc. It's like the corners of a painting and you get to be the centre." Reply

"Highly promising debut album, there are some instances where he's given more than he can handle, but that's always a danger when going all out on diversity. His acrobatics moving so effortlessly across different styles are nothing short of spectacular. Anyone can find something appealing here. If..." [+] Reply

"These guys seem to have such a playful attitude towards making music that words fail me in trying to grasp the essence of it. Just their choice of instruments oozes good-will and playfulness: basitars and guitbasses. :) Playfulness in general - and in music creation particularly - is so incredibl..." [+] Reply

"Not good as Back In Black yes, but it's still a fine album. The title track, Inject The Venom, and Evil Walks are my favorites." Reply

"Probably A-ha’s best album although Hunting High and Low runs it close. As a follow up to that Album A-ha took a slightly different turn with style. A far heavier and more serious sound compared to their debut, but it worked really well. All songs are decent except Maybe Maybe with Manhattan Skyl..." [+] Reply

"After the death of Duane Allman and Berry Oakley, they had one more really good record in them. This is it." Reply

"Outside of Flowers In The Window and Sing it a nice and gentle affair. However the two previously mentioned are the only songs I found to be great on here. You would like this a lot if you liked Coldplay and Snow Patrol though." Reply

"Updating Charlie Parker's innovative alto-style to the tenor, Gordon, aided by a brilliant piano quartet, uses dissonance to great effect. Under Gordon's direction, the tenor has rarely sounded so emphatically alive as it does on 'Go'. This was the album that introduced me to the greatness of the..." [+] Reply

"What can I say? Beth Gibbens' voice is haunting, in the most musical way possible. It makes it only more romantic that she lives as a recluse and essentially sends tapes of herself singing to her compatriots. While the Portishead albums are excellent, I would claim this to more masterful and comp..." [+] Reply
