"This a very consistent album as there is no real weak track and they are all pretty decent. However, it is lacking real attention grabbing songs that keep you interested and I do find a lot of the songs out stay their welcome a little. There is a lot of great musicianship on here, that really mak..."  [+]  Reply

"Live 1975-1985 is a fantastic live document. Bruce Springsteen is off course one of the great live performers and this a wonderful box of delights for boss fans. Over three discs(5LP's), this is a spectacular rock'n'roll journey kicking off with the beautiful acoustic piano version of thunder roa..."  [+]  Reply

"Now this album, is underated. Common guys, this is a phenomenal album. It shows the mature form of The Maccabees, compared with their previous albums. As you can perceive many influences, it's definitely not a mono-tone album. Go, Pelican, Ayla, Feel to follow, Forever I've Known, Heave... a grea..."  [+]  Reply

"Caifanes had been flirting with Mexican elements in their music ever since their debut, but it wasn't til 1992's 'El Silencio' that they decided to fully commit to the idea of making Rock Mexicano, and this is reflected on the album cover, which features a combination of pre- and post-Hispanic ar..."  [+]  Reply

"I’m glad Imagine Dragons is all over the radio. They are exactly what the radio needs right now. The thing I think I love most about this Las Vegas-based band is how they have such a great pop sensibility (read as: catchy songs) without ever sounding too trite or obnoxious. They consistently soun..."  [+]  Reply

"Live-Evil consists of four long jams recorded live, with four nice short moody tracks, recorded in studio, in between. A small negative for me would be that the long tracks sound very much alike.
