"This one suffered a lot of ridicule around the time of its release. A bit unfair. It's good, solid bluesy rock all the way through. Nothing remarkable but well executed."  Reply

"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

"An exceptional change of pace. Perhaps it doesn't peak like AE did, but it's such a left turn that the sheer quality of it on it's own is admirable. Its unique lyrically and sonically, and overall it's just a really adventurous album."  Reply

"Only song I really liked: Don't Take Your Guns To Town Pretty average. Probably my least favorite effort I've heard. But then again, how do you get any better than his other efforts, right?"  Reply

"Autechre have gone through a few distinct changes over the course of their career, or really just one, very gradual change. From their early Incunabula days as melodic technicians, Autechre have crafted some of the most intelligent and intensely mathematical electronic on the IDM scene, but the s..."  [+]  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

"While this is still an artist finding his groove, there is a ton of ambition in a few tracks, notably Red Army Blues, which begins with layered acoustic guitar and moves through a seven minute epic lyric. The title track closer is a beauty that completely prefigures everything he accomplished on ..."  [+]  Reply

"Gilmour really comes into his own as a songwriter, with an album of mature, lovely music in the vein of "Fat Old Sun." It's not quite Floyd, but it doesn't try be. Best songs are "Smile," "This Heaven," and the title track, but the album can be enjoyed start to finish. It's so nice to hear peacef..."  [+]  Reply
