"The Quintet is Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Bud Powell, Charles Mingus and Max Roach. You can also buy a more complete version of the same concert called Charlie Parker - Complete Jazz At Massey Hall which has 14 tracks." Reply

"Disturbingly beautiful album. This gave me chills the first time I listened to it. A worthy follow up to The Drift, if not better. His lyrics make zero sense, but I think they're full of really haunting and bizarrely beautiful imagery. And the music.... wow, just wow. The track "Corps De Blah" is..." [+] Reply

"Really cool early electronic album! I'd recommend this for fans of Velvet Underground, Faust, Can, Amon Duul II, and other experimental groups of the era." Reply

"CLOUDDEAD is a world of its own. The atmospheric dream-like beats flow into the album from the edges of space, slowly coming together into a loosely held congregation of the kind of hypnotic and emotionally evocative electronic twinklings and drones reminiscent of some of BoC's more spacious work..."

"If you know anything about the UK’s electronic music scene from the past five years, you’ve heard of Burial. William Bevan, aka Burial, is the producer in the scene, the man that spearheaded the genre known as dubstep, with a sound that doesn’t sound at all similar to what people think of today w..."

"Heard what I thought was the full original album, turned out it was a special edition with extra tracks so I found it rather repetitive. Will edit my rating when I get round to listening to the actual tracklist! Stuck between The Smiths and The Stone Roses." Reply

"Are you kidding me, KGLW? 11 years and 20 albums later, these guys may be hitting yet another peak with IDPLMAL. This self-described "jammy" album features tongue-in-cheek lyrics that offer a smirk and a wink towards contemporary jam bands (the same way Infest the Rat's Nest did, but for heavy me..." [+] Reply

"The world's first (and only?) metal band that doesn't take itself - not to mention metal music - seriously, but who put writing good songs its top priority. It's funny how most metal heads are surprisingly easy-going and even intellectual people, yet they often listen to music that is as insular ..." [+] Reply
"Fantastic follow-up to Kaputt. Love it. Bejar definitely gained a huge group of new listeners four years ago, and I'm assuming he figured he'd need to up his game a notch. It's a super lush album, layered with dense orchestration, yet it still feels so dreamy and light. TImes Square and Dream Lov..." [+] Reply
