"An underrated album. New skin for the old ceremony, isn't quite in the same class as his first three albums but it's still a very good record. It features some fantastic songs such as opener, is this what you wanted, the excellent, Chelsea hotel, and, lover, lover, lover, and that's just the firs..." [+] Reply

"how can you not love an album with a song called "lightsaber cocksucking blues"?? ;-) fortunately the album is solid throughout, with the band's impish sense of humor keeping things interesting." 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

"Rapping records in the late 80s came out, it seemed, on a near weekly basis that upped the game on the last. The lead single and title track on this, just like the first single on the debut, upped the game to such an extent that it just left all competition destroyed. Well, competition is none eh..."

"Really great album. Contains 3 Cohen classics, "Hallelujah", "If it be your will" and "Dance me to the end of love". All other tracks are good as well with some great poetry; the lyrics to "Night Comes On" especially resonate with me. I'm surprised it isn't regarded higher by more reviewers. A mu..." [+] 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

"Still need to think about this a little longer but yeah, I feel like this might be a 10. It's literally perfect from beginning to end. The production was spotless, not a single song was too long, and Mos's rhymes were just on another level. Music is supposed to move you right? Well this shit sent..." [+] Reply

"Jai Raj Paul appeared on MySpace in 2007 but became famous in 2010, with a contract with XL Recordings. Then there was the leak that changed everything: on Bandcamp, a collection of songs by Jai, the press is excited and announces the release of a long-awaited debut album. In 2019, after seven ye..."
