"My favorite Lizzy album. It's not completely perfect, but I can't help but absolutely love it. Lynott's personality has never been better, and that goes along with the fantastic songwriting and instrumental work. Best track - Either "Bad Reputation", "Opium Trail", or "Killer Without a Cause"." Reply

"Peterson has such a unique and identifiable touch on the piano. It’s classy and sharp yet explorative and so bluesy. Night Train is a marvelous showcase of that, especially as the record gets going and has established a mood." Reply

"I've always thought that when someone (the longer-than-life critics establishment, fans, etc) review and album, the review actually should be written in the context to the album, the band and the music genre. I would never review a hip hop album because I do not like hip hop at all. Well, that's ..." [+] Reply

"If you want shoegaze that'll make your balls drop. this is it/ Although many prefer Ferment. let's not forget this one/ It's more metallic but still sounds like shoegaze and it's mind-blowingly awesome. It's a must-listen." Reply

"Really solid follow up to Light Up Gold, though it shouldnt be compared to its predecessor. Both are completely different albums with individual strengths. Sunbathing Animal's strength lies within its jamming-instrumentation and witty songwriting. Sunbathing Animal and Instant Dissassembly are in..." [+] Reply

"This is the dumbest smart album I've ever heard. Dumb in that the vocals are brash and are not subtle at all. The lyrics are not exactly complex and poetic either. However this album tackles societal ills with such precision. It's also very funny. The biggest themes of this album are violence, te..." [+] Reply

"From here lies the origin of the term “Cotten-picking”, based around her unique technique of guitar playing. Recorded in the 50s, while Cotten was in her 60s, Freight Train & Other North Carolina Folk Songs & Tunes is a collection of songs that Elizabeth Cotten had originally written in the early..."

"Good album by Beck, it starts off really strong but kinda dips in quality towards the last 5 tracks (the No Complaints through Motorcade run is particularly a step down in quality compared to the tracks before them). Still, it's a solid record and it has one of my favorite songs by Beck (Soldier ..." [+] Reply
