"I think I'm halfway in-between the earlier comments. While this album isn't an all-time favourite and some of the covers struggle, it's also not a poorly executed flop. Their covers of Renegades of Funk and How I Could Just Kill a Man aren't better than the originals, but take them in an entirely..."  [+]  Reply

"I've been waiting for Lykke Li to find her sound ever since her 2008 debut. That album, and the follow-up, were promising Swedish dance-pop, but they were missing something. On this release, she's managed a solid collection, including a couple of real standout tracks. I suspect her best album is ..."  [+]  Reply

"A fantastic jazz fusion album that really stunned me on first listen and I have been hooked ever since. The performances on this album are just amazing and some of the solos on here are just astounding. Every instrument seems to be played so well and each has their own individual moment to shine...."  [+]  Reply

"One of the most promising artists of the decade finally comes through with the album we’ve been waiting for. This thing is soulful, funky, gritty, sexy, and even funny."  Reply

"Wow, does Paul McCartney seem revitalized or what? I've never been a huge McCartney fan, but there's a focus to this album i haven't ever seen in his solo works, including any of his recent stuff all the way back to "Ram". He works with a handful of producers to deliver a very good album with no ..."  [+]  Reply

"Listening to Teenager of the Year, I can't help but be amazed at the amount of music this man had inside of him. This 22 songs-long tour de force manages to be astounding from start fo finish despite its ambitious length and it's as good, or maybe even better, than anything he did with the Pixies..."  [+]  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

"A really underrated album. The entire thing from start to finish is just a masterpiece. Like originally the only album I had heard from him was Poses, then someone referred me to Want One and I had really no idea how talented this man really is."  Reply

"A very unique sounding album. I'm impressed by the incredibly clean instrumentals and the idiosyncratically authentic lyrics that cover a wide variety of topics but never falter. From the start, the album is abrasive but it also possesses the chaotic form that continues throughout. Consistently g..."  [+]  Reply
