"Masterpiece of soundscape, to say the least. The guitar tone is an art in and of itself. The lyrics are hauntingly deep, even though the delivery comes across somewhat silly at points. The choir on Big Church is so damn good, All around this album is consistent and cohesive, which just makes it e..."  [+]  Reply

"A winding record filled with some of Alex's most twisted experiments alongside his most triumphant songs. Just as quirky as his past output, House of Sugar features tacky synth sounds, odd pitched vocals, and strange circular melodies mixed with straightforward acoustic ballads and passages of sl..."  [+]  Reply

"Second album from the Stranglers, no more heroes, is another superb record. Great sneering and sarcastic songs from Hugh Cornwell and co. I feel like a wog, something better change, and the superb title track are a few of the standouts. The Stranglers were great at this point."  Reply

"It was a five year gap between this and their last album, steel wheels, the longest in their career so far. Was it worth the wait? Not really. This is an album lacking ideas and direction. The first two tracks, love is strong and you got me rocking are ok, but they're obviously a desperate attemp..."  [+]  Reply

"I love Serge, but I'm surprised this is his second most acclaimed album. While it contains a few of his greatest songs, it's also loaded with silly, goofy throwaway songs that sound very dated compared to what's on his other albums from the era. But if you're looking for the kind of music that Au..."  [+]  Reply

"Arguably the best metal album released in the past 25 years. It can be quite impenetrable to some though with how nuts it is at times which is understandable. It's quite all over the place and yet somehow still manages to flow like the ocean in it's notion to play out as a single, carefully calcu..."  [+]  Reply

"Not as good as TA13OO imo, but it's straight fire. Shorter (only 29 minutes), more to the point and much more upbeat and hard-hitting. However I find TA13OO to be a more engaging listen, although both albums are excellent. Cannot wait to hear more from Denzel!"  Reply
