"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. If someone played a small snippet of one of the four pieces and asked me which one it is, I would hav..." [+] 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

"Some are aware of Mann's soundtrack to "Magnolia." This is the album those songs (mostly) came from. It's one of the darkest, most tuneful things you'll ever hear -- as if Joni Mitchell went pop, slick, and sarcastic. The first few listenings may leave you wondering why you bought it . ..."

"The slower and more experimental tracks on here are the highlights and some of IDLES best cuts yet. Although it lacks the punch of past projects this still is quite enjoyable." Reply

"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..."

"Beautiful. I can't believe music critics have listened to the same record. Shame on them. No, I pity them. You've got to be quite a sad person to hate this. Their sudden liking for his official ADZ release was even more shamelessly ridiculous." Reply

"Rather than being one more shot for glory "Interpol" is a more subtle, sombre affair signalling Carlos' exit from the band. By no means easy listening, it is very much their 'difficult' album with the band often sounding like they're playing with one hand behind their back, it is nonetheless a tr..." [+] Reply
