"Failure in general is so overlooked but this album is truly an underrated gem of the 90s. in this album the band has finally found their sound: the perfect balance between heavy and melodic, dark and sappy, and an amazing production. the songwriting really shines on this one and the lyrics are gr..."  [+]  Reply

"Themed after a psychic community in Florida, Cassadaga marks a turn in Conor Oberst's career to a more uplifting / slightly less introspective side. However this album does not sacrifice its lyrical genius in the process. All of the instrumental arrangements throughout this album are a tad more l..."  [+]  Reply

"A very messy album. Really, it's just a hotchpotch album of songs written for highlander, a meant to be stand alone single and a few hastily written new tracks. Again, like all their later albums the singles are the best songs. One vision, the title track are very good but who wants to live forev..."  [+]  Reply

"Caifanes had been flirting with Mexican elements in their music ever since their debut, but it wasn't til 1992's 'El Silencio' that they decided to fully commit to the idea of making Rock Mexicano, and this is reflected on the album cover, which features a combination of pre- and post-Hispanic ar..."  [+]  Reply

"I'm in the middle of thinking that this is a work of genius and that it's self-indulgent. Aesop Rock is definitely one of the greatest artists in hip-hop, but this is way too long "Daylight" is a classic though, fantastic song."  Reply

"Following a relatively fallow creative period for the Captain, the master returned to form with the album 'Shiny Beast'. In my opinion, as great a record as this record is, his follow-up, 'Doc At The Radar Station', is even better. This album is a kind of distillation of 'Trout Mask' for the post..."  [+]  Reply

"A phenomenal compilation on par with Hatful of Hollow and Substance 1987. If you want to distill the first half of The Cure's career into one collection of songs, this is about as good as it gets, both as a review of their first six albums and as a collection of perhaps their best non-album singl..."  [+]  Reply
