"Bob Geldof once famously quoted: “In the UK you had The Pistols, in America you had The Ramones and from Australia there was The Saints”. Seems outrageous that The Saints from the back blocks of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia should be mentioned in the same breath as two punk icons, but on this ..."  [+]  Reply

"In Marley's discography this is likely his most undervalued studio release. Discussion of the work usually centers around the subject matter, which is at first reasonable, because the political lyrical content stands out in Marley's body of work. But in my opinion the record has a lot more to off..."  [+]  Reply

"I was listening to Gregorian chants in the early 80s and somehow I missed out on Dead Can Dance in the late 80s. It's my loss. I find this album more engaging than Within the Realm of a Dying Sun. Lisa Gerrard proves here that she can be both ethereal and heavy. Brendan Perry's voice is good but ..."  [+]  Reply

"This is completely unjust, a 69? Are you serious? This album wasn't AMAAZING, but it should have at the very least low to mid 70s. Honestly Hozier shows his artistic variety from the soulful guitars of "Jackie and Wilson" to the grandioise drums, pianos, and guitars of "Take me to church." But th..."  [+]  Reply

"Everyone's always like "ooh, founding fathers rapping LOL" but I honestly don't see it that way, this is just a natural progression of Broadway musicals, instead of everything being sung through, it's just said with a rhythm that keeps you involved. Of course there's that AND an abundance of just..."  [+]  Reply

"Hammer Horror... I have no idea what she is saying in the song but I am enchanted nonetheless. And that chorus... her voice is wonderful, spooky and otherworldly all at once. The strings are delightful and I think there might be a guitar too, like a really tiny one maybe. Anywhos... that song is ..."  [+]  Reply

"This is definitely not a B-sides album. Yes, the songs were recorded at the same time as Wall of Eyes but they collated 2 albums of very different aesthetics - the various songs chosen to best suit the feeling they were looking for. This album is a meandering jam that incorporates all the playful..."  [+]  Reply
