"A beautiful album centred around unrequited love. k d Lang moves away from her country style and delivers an album full of melancholy and self retribution. Best tracks, Save Me, Mind Of Love, Constant Craving, Season of Hollow Soul and Miss Chatelaine. (First added to chart: 14/06/2012)"  Reply

"I'm suprised to see this album so low ranked compared to the rest of Bob Dylan's. You can find Mark Knopfler (Dire Straits) solo guitars like in Sweetheart like you, Dylan's voice as strong as ever on Jokerman and other good songs like I an I or closing ballad Don't fall apart on me tonight.

"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

"Starts off like the soundtrack to a classic film noir, and ends in a locked loop hum from a possible vintage indian funeral. A mysterious and entertaining escalator 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

"The best album of 1985 (the year sucked), and one of the best emo albums. The Rites' only studio record is one of the most visceral compilations of cerebral music there is, and probably one of the most influential albums on the decade. The general sound is very lo-fi but that doesn't mean it soun..."  [+]  Reply

"I'M ALIVE!!!! Bruce Springsteen is back on a rocking album full of nostalgia and the celebration and thrill of being alive. Recorded entirely live, a few overdubs aside, it is the sound of the E street band on stage and firing on all cylinders. "One minute you're gone" kicks off the record on a c..."  [+]  Reply
