"MENTOR & MUSE Well you really got me this time And the hardest part is knowing I'll survive I have come to listen for the sound Of the trucks as they move down Out on ninety five And pretend that it's the ocean Coming down to wash me clean, to wash me clean (Boulder to Birmingham) Why did you go ..."

"Rather than being one more shot for glory "Interpol" is a more subtle, sombre affair signalling Carlos' exit from the band.

"In Dreams is beautifully sung and Roy Orbison's voice is what makes the album stand out as much as it does. His vocal is incredible and he makes it a near impossible task not to sing along with him even if you don't know the lyrics. On the whole it is a pure and innocent record and is very enjoya..."

"It isn't really innovative, but it's consistent, I can't find a bad song here. While it hasn't got the grip of an Arctic Monkeys record, you can definitely hear the ambition and talent of these young lads. The production is spot on, it is full of bangers, and you can hear some Strokes and Oasis i..." [+] Reply

"What’s the best album no one has heard of ? Music snobs have preached the the virtues of this album for decades and with good reason.

"In the path to Melody Nelson (which was the album I actually wanted to listen) I stumbled across this amazing pop gem, this guy has an amzing musical sense and every song of the album benefits of it with catchy arrangements and sweet, lovable melodies that stuck in your head for days all along, c..."
