"Along with Blag Flag and Bad Brains, Minor Threat helped create one of the most intense and heartfelt genres. Hard Core! Although the musicianship isn't completely there yet, this band deserves a nice score for creating a genre that spawned some of the greatest bands ever." Reply
"Possibly the most venomous satire of Newman's career atop breezy country, orchestral and jazz arrangements. As always Newman spares no one side a fraction of his wit." Reply

"authentic and native heavy metal album. if you like this kind of music (pure heavy metal), you will adore this one quite likely. dio has a fantastic hardrock voice - maybe the best? imo much more intense than judas priest's shot." Reply

"The recording of Sheet Music is reputed to be the highlight for the four members of 10cc. However, it is The Original Soundtrack that portrays the clever lyrics with catchy music and melodies. Une nuit in Paris is by far the wittiest song ever written. It is followed by the moving I'm Not in Love..." [+] Reply

"I don't typically love garage rock, but Dinosaur, Jr. has landed something really fun and energetic here, a grand, chugging album that doesn't let up until the very end." Reply

"A fantastic gem in the dust! One Way and Game will satisfy you if you want great pop songs. However this album is much more than that. The strings, guitars, folk instruments and whatever else they play. They all meld into one fantastic sound. The singer is genuiune and the music has a real soul. ..." [+] Reply
"This is by far the best Harmonium album and the best Quebecois album in history. I'm clueless as why this is so underrated but l'heptade is a true masterpiece of the prog rock genre that can't be fairly appreciated after only one listen." Reply

"Great follow up to, limbo panto. Two dancers, is a slightly more reserved, if that's the right word, but in a good way. I'm probably trying to say that this album is a lot less bonkers than the first one. Still, two dancers, is great with strong cuts in, hooting and howling, and, this is our lot...." [+] Reply
