"CONTEXT: In the middle of the early '90s grunge era, Sweet created 2 of the best pop rock albums of the decade. The production is a bit too squeaky-clean, but the songs are undeniable: they hook you in, and then keep getting better with repeated listens. MUSIC: A surprisingly diverse collection o..." [+] Reply

"I'm not all 55 minutes through it, and my opinion hasn't changed much. This is a really cool album. I'll definitely be coming back to it. I'd also like to note that I just looked at the playclock for my last comment, and it happened to be at 23 seconds. It didn't even register with me that that w..." [+] Reply

"The sound on this album is complex, dense and mellow akin to the harmonious experimentalism of Pink Floyd, the instrumentals of Cream and the 'cosmic' improvisation and existentialism of Sun Ra. The band members, inspired by Stockhausen and John Cage and the music tapes for Morton Subotnick, prod..." [+] Reply

"Ambient sound and unnerving vocals, the album is an experience. See how the cover looks? that's the way it sounds. Don't be put off if you are not a Spanish speaker as it should not make a big difference... I am Spanish and didn't quite get half of it." Reply

"Mixing Noise rock with sludgy, doomy, stoner metal has to be one of the best ideas anyone has ever come up with. This album is a full frontal assault of noise and it's just so much fun, fantastic listen, highly recommended to anyone into fast-paced noisy rock/metal" Reply

"The general consensus that this album is regressive after the creative leap of the, today, album, is slightly misleading. It features some of the beach boys most forward thinking moments. The most famous off course is the brilliant, California girls, the intro is stunning. The non vocal, summer m..." [+] Reply

"Do you remember where you were when you first heard a particular album? I remember EXACTLY where I was when I heard this! It was as if I had downed several instant speed pills and was instantly amped!(Which may have been what the artist had done, but that's another story...) The sheer energy that..." [+] Reply

Too bad he went all weird in promotion of this album and too bad peop..." [+] Reply

"We all know they have their formula, but it's a fun one. Their recent albums haven't really had much staying power, but it's tough not to appreciate the immediacy of them. Case in point is the song "Congregation", full of hooks that you only have to hear once to be humming all day. So while it pr..." [+] Reply

"Some of his stuff can be a little self-indulgent, but this album is completely on the money. Funny, irreverant and with some great tunes to boot, this is a classic Zappa album. I haven't gone through his whole catalogue, but this is my favourite so far." Reply
