"Contemplative, atmospheric and even haunting at times. It's really hard for me to find the words to describe this album. Definitely my favorite release of this year so far. Favorite tracks: Crimson Tide, It Just Doesn't Happen, foolssong, Cue Synthesizer" Reply

"A highly intimate album in which Sting lets go a little the virtuoso playing to tell a story and give it the space it deserves. To be listened to attentively. This one is not a party album. it is to be taken in more as you would take in a great movie or book." Reply

"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
"Lately, The Flaming Lips have entered a very experimental stage of their career. They’ve always been fairly experimental and odd in their music, but lately they’ve been going in a very different direction from some of their earlier albums like “Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots" and “The Soft Bulle..."

"Frankly, I can't understand the criticism about this album. It is as good as Light Me Up, you will find some of the best songs by The Pretty Reckless, and some of the best of the moment. After listening to this many many times, I can say that Going to Hell is definitely better than Light Me Up. I..." [+] Reply
"This album is a lot better than people give it credit for... Some of Weller's most beautiful songs in "Ghosts" and "Carnation," and "Town Called Malice" is an all-time classic. There's not really any useless songs on this, and he's trying a lot of new styles, most of which turn out fairly well." Reply
