"Most solid Slipknot work, achieving what the band tries to do the best. Still, not the greatest thing you've ever heard, that's for sure." Reply

"It swings like jazz, wails like blues, and has a funky groove. This album was way ahead of its time and remains at the top of the jazz heap as well as the guitar heap for any genre. Burell's absolutely masterful technique is on display throughout as well. Absolutely faultless." Reply

"It is right. Mogwai reveals its pure beauty alive. But, exactly on this album, we can discover why they are so extraordinary hooked and let your neck hair rise... Listen full force" Reply

"THE BETTER HALF Remember way back when. Back on my first post. When I compared the first half of Donovan’s double LP as being some of the best folk rock EVER released. As good as The Byrd’s Mr. Tamborine Man. As good as Love’s Forever Changes. I meant it. I really did. I LOVE those ten songs with..." [+] Reply

"The first in a run of five albums that testify to Stevie Wonder's genius. Obviously influenced by Sly and the family Stone, music of my mind, has a psychedelic rock sound to it, and though it probably doesn't feature any individual classic songs, there are still some fantastic tracks here. Superm..." [+] Reply

"If there exists a person who simultaneously has heard the term "5th Wave of Emo" and thinks it's not arrived, they surely do now. "Dream-pop" never went out of style per se, but it has become an increasingly amorphous definition. A term coined by one of Shoegaze's few POC artists has come to cove..." [+] Reply

"This album is tough to gauge because it feels like things were just different when it came out. I love this album but there are some lackluster songs on here. But, a lot of its mediocrity is reconciled through some of its jams; namely Erase Me, Mr. Rager and GHOST!. Tough to say whether it's bett..." [+] Reply
