"Amazing hairs stand up music. Only ever had a few of traks off this at the time and wish I'd had the full album as only had it couple of years. 88 man. Very efficient indeed." Reply

"It's been a up and down experience for me with this album. I was really disappointed initially. After a few listens, there's a few good songs here and a really cool vibe, but it still doesn't feel like a Gorillaz album. Instead, it's a Gorillaz inspired mixtape." Reply

"She softly storms in with "things that scare me". When she sings "the world is gonna pay", you believe her. With your attention, her voice carries you to the "valley of the shadow" where deep red bells "ring this tragic gun". I hear emmylou in her voice. The album sounds romantic and almost lustf..."

"As somebody from Tallahassee, this album is far better than this town deserves. I guess that's the point of such a terrible couple moving here to drink themselves to death." Reply

"Traffic was one of the greatest band to come out of Britain in the late 1960's. By the time the band recorded their second album, the original line-up was together again after of short period as a 3-piece band. Guitarist and songwriter Dave Mason had more or less walked in and out of the band. Af..." [+] Reply

"Such a blast to listen to. First time making my way through Blind Melon's discography but this one easily surpasses their debut album for me, at least as far as first listens are concerned. It lacks a radio hit single type song like "No Rain", but it's far more consistent, unpredictable, multilay..." [+] Reply
