"I love Saint Etienne: their melodicism, accessibility, danceability, cleverness, cool passion and taste. And their impeccable album discography starts with this classy debut." Reply

"Some consider this too 'poppy'. This 'supergroup' was formed from the ashes of 'Yes', 'King Crimson' and 'ELP' and given its release in 1982 could never have been 'Close to the Edge', 'Brain Salad Surgery', or 'In the Court of the Crimson King'. Granted, the album is radio friendly and delivered ..." [+] Reply

"I actually loved the contrast, first half being conscious and second half being turned up and ignorant. The second half is also AMAZING if you want to turn up your speakers and go wild!" Reply

"Slowly honed by the tides of time, this high quality offering has become surprisingly stuck to my digital turntable. The album’s quality is inescapable, but it’s the experience and beauty in Gabriel’s voice, now in its eighth decade, that really impresses." Reply

"This is a phenomenal metal album in my opinion! Frim the first 20 seconds of track one this album is pure shred, riff, and metal up the ass. It actually blew me away how much I liked this. My favorite artist is Megadeth and this album competes with their best in my opinion. Then you get to Voice ..." [+] Reply

"Common represents the streets, but he shows a different response to them. Instead of everything being about money, hos and violence, he wraps about struggling, moving forwards, and love. He gives a respectful vibe. His lyrics are intelligent and focused on growth. It also doesn't hurt that his fl..." [+] Reply

"The Colonel really ruined Elvis' career. Sure Elvis got rich, but the quality of songs and scripts he was given were utter trash." Reply

"So refreshing! I haven't been blown away like that by a first listen since quite some time! I will give that a few more listens, but I wouldn't be surprised to see it land in my top 50! Really incredible, super fun punk. Wow." Reply

"This feels like it is quite an under appreciated album. The songs are edgy and fun and really engaged me. The first six tracks hardly have a dull moment due to the depth of the music that you can enjoy. This makes the first part fly by and so for an album that is quite long it does not drag as mu..."

"The Killers Most Cohesive Album Yet A lot of people’s biggest problem with the Killers is their lack of album flow and consistency. The biggest example of this is Hot Fuss. The first side of the album is LOADED with hit after hit and contains some of the best music of the early 2000s. Only to be ..." [+] Reply
