"It's a really great album. Synth-Pop at it's best. "Here Comes the Rain Again", "Right By Your Side", "Who's That Girl", "Cool Blue" - Heavy and light, cold and warm, such a diverse album." Reply

"Not as good as the previous Green River and Cosmo's Factory but still a good album with great songs. John Fogerty doesn't write bad songs as his style is deeply rooted on traditional americana. The foundation is always solidly strong and grounded as an oak." Reply

"Before the Dawn Heals Us is one big epic journey that blasts through your own mind. Although some tracks on the album don't fully match to the others, the album flows through a pattern of increasing and decreasing intensity. It truly is masterpiece that contains some M83's best work." Reply

"This brilliant fairy-tale sketched concept album essentially evokes the inner-workings of the imaginatively fertile mind of its protaganist, Daevid Allen. The album combines surrealism, anarchist philosophy and expressionist theatre within a rich tapestry of jazz, rock and ambient music in a way ..." [+] Reply
