"Hot Chip have finally delivered on the promise of their earlier output with an album that is pure electronic pop at its very best. Key tracks: Motion Sickness; Flutes; Ends of the Earth; Let Me Be Him."  Reply

"This album won the British Mercury Music Prize Album of the year, beating Radiohead's OK Computer and The Verve's Urban Hymns in the process! Definitely worth checking out if you appreciate electronic music like The Chemical Brothers or Prodigy"  Reply

"Pretty much all sampled beats. Joey picked all the right samples for a perfect 90s mixtape vibe but he didn’t have a vision of his own to make his own music until Summer Knights. This project is good and I like it a lot but I don’t respect the artistry as much because it wasn't Joeys own artistry..."  [+]  Reply

"A small, beautiful gem. Musgraves is an especially gifted songwriter and intelligent observer, and her view of the American Heartland has a mixture of warmth and cynicism, and one that ultimately is optimistic if well-aware of her familiar surronding's many struggles (sometimes self-inflicted) an..."  [+]  Reply

"The Doobies would probably not be anybody's list of important or influential artists but this is my favourite album at present. I was drawn to it by the hit singles China Grove & Long train Running but soon found there was so much more. South City Midnight Lady is Patrick Simmons' greatest song a..."  [+]  Reply

"Some absolutely dynamite songs here. Sweet Transvestite and Time Warp are probably the best known, but Susan Sarandon's rendition of Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me is smoking hot and Meatloaf's Hot Patootie is superior to anything he did after. But what makes this a great all around album is probably T..."  [+]  Reply

"I feel like Joni Mitchell is a genius. Like, I recognize that now. Its like she envisions or, more accurately, hears music with more clarity than almost any human in pop music history. From the jump, with this solo debut of hers, its clear she is a legitimate A+ guitarist, a freakishly pristine a..."  [+]  Reply
