"It is one of those albums you can tell will initially be underwhelming especially after the busy pop heavy Little Dark Age. This album is not a head bopper. It is much more minimalist but that doesn’t take away from some of the beautiful melodies and soundscapes you are used to with MGMT. The alb..." [+] Reply

"Tom waits described his new album as 'cubist funk', and on the brilliant second track, hoist this rag, you can see what he means. Real gone, is probably Tom Waits' most challenging record. It's full of clattering blues and beautiful acoustic based songs. Opener, top of the hill, is scratchy rock ..." [+] Reply

"One of the best indie releases of 2017. Fantastic voice, fantastic flow to the album, good lyrics and a rather interesting sound. Not just peak girlpower, but a great album through and through." Reply

"Gotta say, this is a really solid album. Probably Motley Crue's best and their most perfect blend of heavy metal and glam metal. Motley Crue will always remain a dumb band, but they've got some good hard rocking tunes." Reply

"Definitely, not a jazz expert. But, I found this album enjoyable given the more melodic tenor soloing over just bass and drums. Features Ray Brown on bass and Shelly Manne on drums. This album is credited with the birth of the jazz technique of "strolling", which is sax soloing over bass and drum..." [+] Reply
"Dance and rock at the same time, initimate and orchestral at the same time, epic and sensitive at the same time; in short this is so far and a after few listens an album that has grown on my and is my best album of the year 2018, a year that is already blessed with many great albums. Let's Dance ..." [+] Reply

"There are a lot of skits, jokes, bantering and general foolin' around on this album. These guys have skills, but don't really start showin' them off sans distractions until their roller skating jam. I applaud their attempt at abstraction and lack of typical song structure, but it often just comes..." [+] Reply

"After having one of the most productive years of his song writing career, releasing a ton of classic songs willy-nilly as non-album singles, b-sides and eps, Weller suffered extreme writers block. The resulting album, Cafe Blue, was scraped together from jam sessions and pointless re-recorded ver..." [+] Reply

"One would think this kind of slick, perfectionist production and The Ramones would be a terrible fit, but it's a surprisingly good combination. Spector really taps into the band's "pop" side without diluting them at all. Love this album !" Reply

"A decent album with an interesting choice of musical styling which is very relaxing and therapeutic to listen to. The diverse range of artists keeps the music fresh as well and the style is maintained as it is passed from one artist to the next which is really impressive. There are some really ca..." [+] Reply
