"I've yet to hear a mediocre recording from The Duke, but this one is something special. It's more energetic and adventurous than his work with the Blanton-Webster band. There are a lot of great tracks, but I especially enjoyed "A Tone Parallel to Harlem."" Reply

"Only just good hard rock/glam metal album. Best 10 songs average is 77,7/100 and the album can get good 80/100. Sound is very good - but vocals take MUCH getting used to. What a strong start of "Black shuck", I turned the radio loud and then --- this annoying falsetto. Don't know if I'm adapting ..." [+] Reply

"Little Simz does it again. Another excellent project with beautiful instrumentation, powerful and emotional lyrics, and a charismatic performance by Simz. While I'm not sure it surpasses Grey Area and SIMBI, I'll need more time with it, this album is more proof that Little Simz is one of the most..." [+] 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

"Very good indie rock album. Best 10 songs average is 92,0/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. I like this sound and the album is rich in variety. Notable are the well-fitting electronic instruments and samples here and there. Best songs are the first three: "Everyday I love...", "I predic..." [+] Reply

"With 'Up On The Sun', The Meat Puppets created a psychedelic-country and experimental fusion that incorporates elements of jazz and even raga. The songs are essentially hypnotic and ethereal 'laid back' meditations which in their way are extremely engaging and innovative." Reply

"Wow! I didn't know they still had an album like this in them with albums like St. Anger, Death Magnetic, and Lulu preceding this. The first disc is actually really, really solid. Hardwired is a strange song when every other song on the record is almost twice as long, but it's a good opener. Atlas..." [+] Reply

"Fantastic big beat electronic album by The Chemical Brothers. Heavy thumping techno beats with some psychedelic sounds throughout, if you're into that sorta thing." Reply
