"Ben Gibbard seems to hate this album, basically saying it was thrown together in a recent interview. (i just think he doesn't connect with what he was feeling at that time anymore.) I think it's that at-the-moment, stream-of-consciousness writing that is the album's greatest asset, right alongsid..." [+] Reply

"You know, however big a douche he is; however much I hate that my wife got me into his music; this dude can shred; and this album is a killer jam." Reply
"Been a long time since I gave gorillaz a listen so I picked up this on release on vinyl as I liked silent running I'd heard on the radio .it's short but enjoyable I've played it loads when I get in from work so been worth the money I'd give it a 8/10" Reply

"An A-side to die for followed by a rather disappointing B-side (not bad, mind you, just a disappointment when following what came before it). The best track is the stellar version of Robert Johnson's Walkin' Blues followed by Work Song which features some of the best blues harmonica ever put on r..." [+] Reply

"My personal favorite Funkadelic album (prefer it over the fan favorite "Maggot Brain." Fans of psychedelic music will be impressed. The lyrics take a backseat and the album is more concentrated on jamming. Excellent guita mastery from Eddie Hazel" Reply

"An enjoyable record with a nice raw sound with Mick especially blowing some wonderful harp. Being the blues it can get to being a bit samey but it's not too bad at all. I wonder if this is just a stop gap or the final Stones album. If it is it's a good way to end it by bringing everything full ci..." [+] Reply

"The spinning circles of dead bodies in the night. The insistent creek in the floor boards powdered with bed crumbs. So subtle yet so disturbed. Haunted, dark and bleak. This album is a work of art while remaining true to purpose of all good music, to be enjoyed. The sparse arrangements of 'Victor..." [+] Reply

"It's sad to see such a great artist pigeon holed. As a life long R.E.M. fan, seeing their stuff on MTV growing up, etc. This is better than Monster in my opinion. I feel it is the right level of pop, edge, and punk rock. I feel it is every bit their sound as any other album. This is why this band..." [+] Reply

"My favourite Elbow albu. Combines the edgy alternative ethos from the first 2 albums with the more accomplished songwriting of the recent outings. Great expectations and my very best are particularly strong." Reply
