"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

"Neil Young's Unplugged performance comes at a good time in his career when Harvest Moon was just released and he was performing with The Stray Gators. The first half of this show has Neil playing acoustically on his own and the band joins in for the back half. There's a good variety of tracks in ..." [+] Reply

"There are some great moments, and some boring moments, on this one. At 70 minutes, this could've been shaved into a much tighter album, not necessarily cutting songs, as they all have their moments, but trimming down the excess a bit. But then it wouldn't exactly be a Dave Matthews Band album, wo..." [+] Reply

"Ah yes the "Christian Years". This is generally regarded as a bad time in Bob Dylan's career. Musically the music became very dramatic, religious, overbearing, clean and kind of self-righteous. And this is the album where it all got kicked off. I'm not a big fan of the new thematic direction Dyla..." [+] Reply

"Really good, track for track, but you could cut three or four songs here without missing anything. Otherwise, terrific songwriting--if a little samey--and even better production." Reply

"Underrated WT album. Many fans complain about it being "commercialized", but I disagree. It's still solid and generally uncompromising symphonic metal." Reply
"Heavily influenced by The Stone Roses, Some Friendly also added The Prisoners, Julian Cope, and Echo & the Bunnymen to the mix creating a vibrant and sussed encapulsation of Madchester before it died." Reply

"Underrated. Two days after "Endless" was released, "Blonde" came out and the world circled around that brilliant album, disregarding "Endless" completely. However, even though it could be his weakest album, this may well be his most interesting piece of work out of his whole career. It veers from..." [+] Reply
"If this is poppier than fans are comfortable with, let's admit that Steven Wilson takes any form of music and makes it much better, more complex and pleasing. Those four openers are Wilson perfection. This guy just loves making great music. Permanating is a damn great Supertramp tribute, and then..." [+] Reply
