"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

"Look, I love First Two Pages of Frankenstein. It's a record that took time for me to appreciate, but that I love like pretty much all of The National's discography. But Laugh Track? The band is COOKING. Where the band's songs from High Violet on became bedded in moody textures, and even their sma..." [+] Reply

"Wonder if I look like a tourist… I don’t envy their roadies. They must break a shitload of strings. They must have like a gazillion acoustic guitars locked & loaded on the racks in order to make a concert work. Because they don’t so much play their instruments as attack them. Fiercely! This is fo..." [+] Reply

"Knowing more for their singles and that compilation, Buzzcocks had some decent albums, including this one. the first half is classic pop punk the second half more experimental. worthy for anyones collection Top 3 Tracks You Say You Don't Love Me I Dont know what to do with my life I Believe" [+] Reply
"Bored, one of the best songs ever! Teens are just angry if they don't get a nut, nowa days more than ever so it's a song ahead of his time. 7 words, Minus Blindfold, maybe One Weak are standout tracks too... Best Deftones album IMO, although they're all consistent gems! 2. White Pony 3. Around Th..." [+] Reply
"84 YT are still a safe bet, creative, talented, magical, so many adjectives that can describe them. This new project continues to prove the more "pop" ambition of the artist, its content gains in finishing, becomes more accessible. They also embrace this Post-Punk / Dance-Punk wave that shows thi..." [+] Reply

"Yeah, they still sound like Pavement but they also remind me of The Modern Lovers and they're really good at copying Lou Reed's ostrich guitar by way of 'The Black Angel's Death Song'. Saying all that, Human Performance is the type of indie album you thought they'd forgotten to make with tunes ap..." [+] Reply

""Un Canto Por México, Vol. 1" is a powerhouse of everything Mexican folk has to offer. Natalia Lafourcade's voice is rich and sweet, she uses it to full capacity on every track. The backing vocals and instrumentals are dripping with energy. In particular, the horns are pleasure on each song. "Un ..." [+] Reply
"Not as great as Gentle Spirit, but still sounds pretty good. Jonathan Wilson is one of the most underrated musicians out there." Reply
