"This is a pretty cool album, the first three parts especially. The last two kinda drag on a bit. But part one is awesome and sludgy, and part two has some really fun guitar work a bit reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix. Part three is a pretty cool, and more straightforward song, with vocals. Overall, a ..." [+] 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

"This album feels like it is just there in my opinion, it is neither good nor bad. The rhythms just don't captivate you as much as you would think a dance album would do. I find myself struggling to even bop my head along to some of the songs. It is a little slow in places as well and does drag ev..." [+] Reply

"I love this album. Browsing through random songs one day, I came across Saint Mary and loved it. Then I checked out the rest of the album... and was blown away. The album's fusion of slow, exquisite, melodious thinker's ballads and punk or rock-oriented songs keeps the album wholly engaging from ..." [+] 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
"Honestly? It's good. Musically one might call it a fantastic pop record, and they would not be wrong. The politics of the lyrics are of course hard to swallow at times. It's one of those albums that I can't quite tell whether it is brashly feminist and sex-positive, or just shallow, consumerist, ..." [+] 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

"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
