"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

It's a..." [+] Reply

"If "You Get What You Give" isn't the best song Mick Jagger wishes he wrote, I don't know what is. Outstanding songwriting, and the music is only about a half-step behind. People love to crack wise on this, but whatever. This was one of the better albums of the 90s and an album that was essential ..." [+] Reply
"What a really cool change of pace for these guys. Yeah, its genre tags are "thrash metal" and "stoner metal," but I would say the intensity of it matches the more chaotic moments from Nonagon of Infinity with some aggressive vocals and crazy good guitar work. It's a very fun listen." Reply

"Another impressive album from the brilliant Nina Simone. Sings the blues, is exactly what it says on the tin. Do I move you, backlash blues, and, blues for mama, are the standouts. Raw and atmospheric." Reply

"Little Simz does it again. Another excellent project with beautiful instrumentation, powerful and emotional lyrics, and a charismatic performance by Simz. While I'm not sure it surpasses Grey Area and SIMBI, I'll need more time with it, this album is more proof that Little Simz is one of the most..." [+] Reply

"1977... The reason why I joined this site .I was looking for Ash's best albums when I just found this site. But that's another story. So talking about the album, seems to be made to be enjoyed in adolescence, the songs fit the early years of these people, the album can be defined in various way..." [+] 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
