"No Peart yet, but that doesn't keep this from being a kickass album. The musical elements of what would become the worlds greatest hard rock/prog band are already evident, even if the songwriting isn't quite there yet." Reply

"While a few of these tracks go for way too long, there is enough melodic and hypnotizing tracks to keep you enjoying it. Favorite tracks: Contre le sexisme, Sunday, Female Mechanic Now on Duty, Hoarfrost, Hits of Sunshine, Karen Koltrane A- 7.5" Reply

"Hands down the best Cheap Trick studio album It’s absolutely mind blowing that tracks such as “ Downed” (with the classic lines ‘I’m gonna live on a mountain/ Way down under in Australia/ It’s either that or suicide’ which is eerily similar to lyrics from Bob Dylans “Outlaw Blues” .... ‘Well I wi..."

"A forgotten prog gem that I believe sits along prog classics like In The Court Of The Crimson King, and Close to the Edge. The album is two side long tracks of psychedelic, funky goodness. A very under appreciated album." Reply

"I can fully understand why people may not like this record, especially if you are only familiar with Teens and Twin Fantasy. But dig deeper and go further back and you will discover that this is the kind of sound that Will has been adding to his much earlier records in small doses, but now with a..." [+] Reply

"This is one of my favorite bands of the 2010's and this album is one of their best. It's a concept album and it's very long but that doesn't do it any bad because there is always something interesting to discover here. At a first listen you would mistake this for a hardcore album but in fact it's..." [+] Reply

"This album is so beautiful, if I’m the first to say it, it is so beautiful that it makes you cry. It gives so many emotions. I hate crying and I haven’t cried many times the last 10 years. I’d say about 9 times in the last 10 years. This album was one of them. Her music is so touching and etherea..." [+] Reply

"This has a slightly more rock sound but it's still definitely the Cranberries. It's a good album, definitely an interesting one in their discography. I know a couple people who say this is their favorite by them." Reply

"Not a bad effort from Trent, but nothing like two decades ago when he was Mr. Self-Destruct. I think success may agree with him and that's not a bad thing." Reply

"A superb Little Feat album. A southern fried blues'n'country fest with Lowell George on top form throughout. I always think of, sailin' shoes, as part of a trilogy with, Dixie chicken, and, feats don't fail me now. There are some excellent tracks here. Cold,cold,cold, cat fever, and the best vers..."
