"I listen to hip hop, jazz, rock, electronic, pop, classical, post-punk, trap, RnB, art pop, reggae, metal, whatever, but I don't listen to a lot of punk or grindcore. This appealed to me despite that. Quite a lot of variation in production. And so much justified anger. I'll hear it again and perh..."  [+]  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

"It's a poor man's Oracular Spectacular, which isn't as much of an insult as it sounds but the parallels are out there. Sleepyhead and The Reeling are catchy little pop tunes that will probably remind you of MGMT's Time to Pretend and Kids. Hopefully they'll get to stretch their legs a little more..."  [+]  Reply

"If the Enz were New Zealand's version of The Beatles then this is surely their finest moment with commercial sensibilities that outweigh the artistic achievement of 'Mental Notes'."  Reply

"This brilliant fairy-tale sketched concept album essentially evokes the inner-workings of the imaginatively fertile mind of its protaganist, Daevid Allen. The album combines surrealism, anarchist philosophy and expressionist theatre within a rich tapestry of jazz, rock and ambient music in a way ..."  [+]  Reply

"My AOTY by far. So many incredible moments. There is so much to process here. Everytime you think that you've comprehended whatever a beat was trying to do, it would switch up or you'd be focussing on a verse instead and miss something. So this is certainly worthy of repeated listens. One of my f..."  [+]  Reply

"For me... Tracks Of My Tears is one of the best songs ever written. Somehow it hits home for me. People think I'm all nice and happy when I don't feel that way. Problem with this record is only the hits are really worth my time. So I'll be listening to his greatest hits."  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
