"I wasn't a big fan of "Trouble" when it came out, but I heard "Jolene" last week and was blown away..."Jolene" is a masterpiece, perfect arrangement, paints a vivid picture of addiction and lonliness, great vocals" Reply

"Ryan Adams actually released THREE albums in 2005, two with The Cardinals and one solo album. My favorite of the three is Cold Roses, a double-CD showing off Ryan and the band doing their best Gram Parsons impression, with some pneumonia-era whiskeytown and faint hints of CSNY thrown in. This is ..." [+] Reply

"Musically creative with rich layers of synth and percussion. The best parts are when they get into a nice groove with the beats and synth loops, as on "Impact". It can become trance inducing with the extended tracks. Then some parts get a bit too repetitive for too long. And it could have used mo..." [+] Reply

"Love first album from 1966 has often been overlooked because of the extraordinary greatness of the two following albums "Da Capo" and "Forever Changes". The general sound on the album is rougher than on the following albums. But the album is actually a fine mixture of hard-rocking tunes and melod..." [+] 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

"The best voice of all time singing like never, Claus Ogerman´s delicate and inspired arrangements and a first line Tom Jobim and American Standards repertoire, all in a sofisticated Bossa Nova style. Everything here is perfect." Reply

"Extreme and violent, a bit experimental. The best thing about that album is it doesn't sound forced or silly with its aggression some metal bands tent to do." Reply
"Company Flow - Funcrusher Plus is another album produced by El-P. I don't think I've ever listened to so many projects where El-P is involved in such a short period of time. This one seemed to me worse than I remembered it and I suspect the main reason is exactly the El-P overexposure. I mean, I ..." [+] Reply
