"McKinley Dixon has come into his own as one of music's most thoughtful emcees. The heart and soul that he puts into his work shines through in every bar, every beat, and every minute detail is stunning. It's a joy to experience his music" Reply

"Really underrated and misunderstood. Many fans including me were shocked with the straightforward pop/rock, emphasis on pop, of Minutes To Midnight. That whole album scaled down the intensity and punch of previous Linkin Park. A Thousand Suns is generally more mellow too but it is way more creati..." [+] Reply
"The people rating this album are smoking dope. This is the highest form of high art. The most gifted band in Jazz, performing the most inspired music, live to a recording device. Nothing short of unbelievable what they pulled off here. This is one of a few albums that had every member at top form..." [+] 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

""Walk Away Renee/Pretty Ballerina" reviews itself. Walk Away Renee and Pretty Ballerina are absolutely fantastic tracks, and the rest, although not bad, aren't worth a mention." Reply

"Aggressive and with lots of feel and hooks. Made in UK in the punk era! Angry artist in a changing time. Frippertronics too. Superb album!" Reply
