"This album is difficult. Not an easily assessable band this record carries on in the same vein as The Modern Dance. You have to give it several listens to reap the rewards and it's worth it." Reply

"This is a perfectly okay album, but Olsen has lost any x-factor I thought she once had. I'd rather listen to 70s country classics than this project – because that's literally what this album is emulating, just with gay themes and ill-fittingly clean production. Olsen is able to make the genre shi..." [+] Reply

"Who are you, is one of The Who's weakest albums, it's obvious that Pete Townshend is struggling for inspiration, and in truth, the band should have knocked it on the head after the, quadrophenia, record. Opener, new song, is extremely disappointing, a song about having nothing to write about, it ..." [+] Reply

"Recovering the Satellite's is their debut but a little darker and louder. This album also has more filler and less classics. A Long December is the best known and would have fit perfectly on the debut. Children in Bloom is and underrated excellent rocker and relatively heavy for Counting Crows. G..." [+] Reply

"Despite the website’a rankings, Gran Turismo tends to be the weakest Cardigans album for me. The high points are definitely the weakest and less frequent, and has more slog than any of the others. Still good, but a weak point in an attempt to rebound from the success Lovefool brought. Best songs:..." [+] Reply

"Really digging Ty’s forays into jazz fusion, just like on last year’s self-entitled album. However I still prefer the latter release. That’s not to say that this one isn’t some high-octane, white knuckle, adrenaline pumping shit too. Because it is! It’s yet another moment of freaky garage brillia..." [+] Reply
