"Break samples galore. Essence of funk to the point of abstraction. Fucking avant-garde shit. You need this in your life." Reply
"The overall theme of the “Laurel Hell” seems to be emotional vulnerability. Mitski sings about expectations, not feeling loved, and anxiety fairly earnestly. “Stay Soft” embraces the topic best with its scared but very affirming discussion of sex. A limitation is many of the songs feel underwritt..." [+] Reply

"The album is a mixed bag in my opinion. This album has the most metal to it's sound of the NIN catalogue, and that's not a positive point in my opinion. "Wish" and the instrumentals are great, but the rest is not to my liking." Reply

"30 November 2013 This is a pretty good album. There are some real highlights here, such as "Going, Going Gone", "Hazel", "Forever Young" (the first version :() and, of course, "Dirge". The main problem I have with this is it doesn't commit. For every good song there is, in my eyes, a somewhat lam..." [+] Reply

"Although it's not quite as inventive as his later records, this is my personal favorite of Scott Walker's albums. His voice stands out as an incredible force that very few can compare to. Many of the best songs are from the Jacques Brel catalog that Walker borrowed from so often early on, and his..." [+] Reply

"Clear Spot sees Captain Beefheart pursuing his blues rock career he restarted with Mirror Man. This album is the clear peak of said blues career. Subsequent releases are seriously lacking in any sort of personality, which Don Van Vliet had become known for. Clear Spot has some instances of him yo..." [+] Reply

"The Kinks' classic 1965 album "The Kink Kontroversy" has now also been released in a deluxe edition. The original mono album comprises CD 1 while CD 2 is an exciting mix of singles, demos, outtakes and BBC liverecordings. The original album ought not require a detailed presentation, one can only ..." [+] Reply

"To me, Daisy is the best Brand New album. One may argue that it is because of my slight bias towards post-hardcore over emo, but after listening to Deja Entendu, TDAGARIM and Daisy many times I've come to the conclusion that this album is the best. Deja Entendu, to begin with, completely blew You..." [+] Reply
"I stumbled upon a Butthole Surfer set at CBGB on YouTube and was pleasantly surprised. Really dug the set so I decided to check out some of their music. Interesting listen. The album hits a nice stride with Dum Dum Wolly Boly and Negro Observer. The rest is a little too hardcore punk or just plai..." [+] Reply

"The long awaited follow-up to, us, up, is quite possibly Peter Gabriel's most underrated album. It's a dark record full of loss and anguish with a few exceptions. There are some excellent tracks; growing up, is brilliant, sky blue, and, signal to noise, are other strong cuts. I grieve, is achingl..." [+] Reply
