"An album that is let down by the second half because the first half is amazing. It is so full of colour and life on those first 3 tracks that you start to think that your in for a classic from Explosions In The Sky. The way they build up the music is brilliant and they allow themselves to explode..." [+] Reply

"Incubus's best album with Morning View to follow a close second. The Warmth is the best track here with a great guitar effect throughout Pardon Me, Drive, I Miss You Are fantastic. Tracks 1 through 3 are solid. Stellar is good too. There isn't a bad song here and the pinnacle of Incubus powers." [+] Reply

"First half is pretty good, but after 'brand new me' it gets a little less interesting. Nonetheless does Aretha what Aretha does, sing amazingly." Reply

"Tank! is one of the greatest pieces of jazz music ever created!!! Phinomenal song from a great album!!!" Reply
"Highly underrated debut from Shakey, as his style would be more defined by his next album. This record continues Neil's work he contributed to the last two Buffalo Springfield albums (produced separately before the group disbanded). It's beautiful psychedelic folk rock. I'm surprised Kanye West o..." [+] Reply

"The Psychedlic Furs were one one of the most significant pop bands of the new wave and this album is packed with winners. In popular conciousness they're John Hughes favs with "Pretty In Pink" and "Don't you Forget About Me", however this as well as several other albums sre well worth owning. The..." [+] Reply

"Reading comments for this album, all I can think about this site is that people here either have a great sense of humor, an awful taste or are completely nuts. Taylor Swift a great songwriter? Please tell me you're joking." Reply

"What a difference a new guitarist makes. Everything else was constant except Uli John Roth had left and had been replaced for recording purposes by Mathias Jabs and Michael Schenker. The production work is so much better - the guitar is a sonically more up front. But the song writing and arrangem..." [+] Reply

"I think I figured out why this album falls short of being great. Its trying too hard to be deep and meaningful. Its clear from the start that Jon Hopkins is building some sort of narrative and cinematic experience with this album, like going beyond the infinite and witnessing the truth of the uni..." [+] Reply
