"AC/DC meets Lynyrd Skynyrd in this wonderfully ambitious set. It's an excellent concept album loosely based on Skynyrd and the southern states of America in general. It's a fun record with some fantastic songs including, Ronnie and Neil, let there be rock(no, not that one), and the enthralling, t..."  [+]  Reply

"The debut album by The Replacements is a rip roaring punk rock record that fizzes by in a flash. Sorry Ma, is a superb record full of energy and hunger. Some tracks, or at least moments sound uncannily like The Clash or the Sex Pistols, but at the end of the day it's still the Replacements. Thril..."  [+]  Reply

"The debut album of Australia's modern rock legends. 'The Living End' combines the raw energy of punk rock with head-spinning rockabilly swing and takes the term "power trio" to a new level. Perfect at any volume and under whatever circumstance. All killer and no filler - it is an instan..."  [+]  Reply

"This is my fav. It has it all, love, pain, strife, anger, joy and hope. It's been a great pleasure to listen to Pete's best and rediscover this periodically throughout my adulthood"  Reply

"A turning point for RP - gone are the slightly suspect 80s sounds, while the hints of Eastern spook and Celtic mysticism come to the fore. He also remembers how to roar like he used to in the Led Zep days, which came in handy when he teamed up with Jimmy Page again shortly after"  Reply

"Really chill album. Nice drumming and flute. Reminiscent of Foxygen but with a more blues & early rock influence. Very different stylistically to 'I'm In Your Mind Fuzz' and 'Nonagon Infinity'. Track Picks: 'The Bitter Boogie', 'Sense' , 'Most of What I Like'"  Reply

"Kevin Barnes is nuts in his own looneyverse, as is the rest of of montreal. Their album satanic panic in the attic propelled them to my ears as a constant enjoyment in 2004 (and after). Such eccentricities can make for inconsistent albums, but on satanic, those eccentricities make for a rich, mag..."  [+]  Reply
