"Released between Suffer and Against the Grain, this string of albums, along with Stranger Than Fiction are all Punk Rock CLASSICS. This may not be as consistent as Against the Grain or Suffer but it's not far behind, and contains a lot of Bad Religion staple songs like I Want to Conquer the World..." [+] Reply

"I think this is Franz Ferdinand's best. I may be alone in that opinion, but that's okay: beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

"Themed after a psychic community in Florida, Cassadaga marks a turn in Conor Oberst's career to a more uplifting / slightly less introspective side. However this album does not sacrifice its lyrical genius in the process. All of the instrumental arrangements throughout this album are a tad more l..." [+] Reply

"If you like Joanna Newsom and/or Kate Bush check out Loreena McKennitt. Three albums which I would rate at 90 (or better) are The Visit (1991), The Mask and the Mirror (1994) and The Book of Secrets (1997)." Reply

The album also ..." [+] Reply

"Probably the least heralded of all the... "The" garage-rock bands that dominated the alternative charts in the early 2000s, they were the most straight-forward and most beholden to their influences (mainly the 80s american underground and grunge), but they had a decent enough sound and plenty of ..."
