"I stumbled upon this album and I'm so glad I did as it is fantastic. Fans of arena rock and guitar shredding in general owe it to themselves to find this album. You are already a fan of Michael Scheneker and you just don't know it yet. I have no idea why he and this band aren't more well known in..." [+] Reply
"Having never heard any of his music, I quite enjoyed this. It's a throwback to 90s/early 2000s music to my ears. The production is pretty loud, so there's not a whole lot of dynamics in the songs, but it's fun stuff. The second half is better, and the best songs are TV Stars, and 9/10. A nice alb..." [+] Reply

"The reigning garage rock king does it again. Certainly his most polished effort, but that doesn't mean it has become urbane. Just as frenetic and down right dirty as ever. I could listen to his fat fuzz all day." Reply

"Combining the cocophonous syncopations of Beefheart, the free-form spastic rhythms of Albert Ayler and the funky dance beats of James Brown, Chance creates a new form of destructured dissonant music for the new wave generation every bit as daring and innovative as the Pop Group and Rip Rig And Pa..."

"The first half is brilliant, unfortunately the second half is a big drop-off. My highlights are Mr Writer, Have A Nice Day, Vegas Two Times and Step On My Old Size Nines. Weakest tracks - Caravan Holiday, Rooftop and Everyday I Think Of Money. The 2002 re-issue contains their brilliant cover of H..." [+] Reply

"tim rice isn't religious at all and webber is too big to say that he isn't, but doesn't talk about it. I suppose they think this is funny, "jesus christ superstar," "this jesus must die." lol, rice was knighted. the album was originally banned for blasphemy, anything by guys this huge to do such ..."

"I think how much you're fascinated with everything Taylor Swift- particularly both the icon and what people perceive her as out of the limelight- will go a long way into how you value this album. Because purely taken as a piece of music, it rarely gels into anything substantial. In hindsight, I w..." [+] Reply

"Okay, when I first got this I would only ever listen to Soup Is Good Food. But as the months go by each song has opened itself up to me (apart from Goons Of Hazard). And this is a hugely diverse album indeed! This Could Be Anywhere proves Jello as a sheer talented songwriter. A different type of ..." [+] Reply

"The Killers Most Cohesive Album Yet A lot of people’s biggest problem with the Killers is their lack of album flow and consistency. The biggest example of this is Hot Fuss. The first side of the album is LOADED with hit after hit and contains some of the best music of the early 2000s. Only to be ..." [+] Reply
