""Brush past a myriad of scenes a homeless vet crashed on wall street, A single mom of three, a TV personality" gushes the lead singer on the opener. The bizarre imagery of 'Chamber The Cartridge' is all about the world ready to explode and collapse on itsown weight. So a typical Rise Against albu..."  [+]  Reply

"Jethro Tull have 3 types of albums: a) near perfect masterpieces; b) good albums; c) weak albums. This one is a good album. You should not get this album as an introduction to the band but if you heard a bit of them and tend to like it, this one is a good choice to get some more. On the heavier s..."  [+]  Reply

"Tumbling towards ecstasy, is without doubt Sarah Mcclachlan's best album. It's a beautiful record that has influences ranging from Joni Mitchell to Enya. There are great songs here, from opener, possession, to the achingly lovely, good enough, from the sweet, ice cream, to the atmospheric title t..."  [+]  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

"Side one, the studio set, (the first six tracks) is as good as any British invasion of its time, including the Beatles. Heart Full of Soul is for my money their best track ever. Side two (starting with Smokestack Lightning) is live tracks, really good garage band blues. If I find this album on Vi..."  [+]  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

"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

"A pretty good rollicking hard rock debut. Strutter is excellent, Nothin' to Lose and Deuce are very strong. The inclusion of Love Theme from Kiss remains a mystery as it almost kills the album with two tracks to go."  Reply
