"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

"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..."

"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

"An eclectic mix of musical genres (world music, free jazz, reggae/dub) performed on an eclectic mix of odd instruments, including traditional African and Asian percussion instruments. Very experimental music, but it's not entirely avant-garde as there is some structure to the songs provided by th..." [+] Reply

"I personally like this album better than his last "something more than free". It seems in step with his growing maturity as a songwriter. If we were Vampires is one of the best songs he's written." 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. Coming out in 69 this album was swamped by the land mark releases from The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin and very much suffered as the hippie summer of ..." [+] Reply

"Really good album, one of Bad Religion's better ones. Favorites: Anesthesia, Flat Earth Society, 21st Century (Digital Boy)." Reply
"Along with Mumford and Sons, The 1975 are one of the most polarising artists out there.
