"This was the last Cranberries album I bought. I kind of lost interest in them at this point. It's not awful or anything but there's not really anything new or interesting here. It's much easier and more rewarding to just listen to Everybody Else Is Doing It for the 600th time."  Reply

"This is an overlooked masterpiece. It's an awesome rock and roll record. It includes perhaps one of the most heartbreakingly honest songs ever written in "You Can't Put Your Arms Around A Memory". Really, I don't know what exactly it is about this record that makes me feel so close to it and atta..."  [+]  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

"A really nice album by the chanson master. The only thing that fails to me is that sometimes it gets a bit repetitive, and maybe that's because of my terrible french. This, probably makes it difficult to fully appreciate the songs."  Reply

"After the musically and thematically ambitious The Band, Stage Fright is a much more modest and stripped back effort. The songs are much more personal, with the group telling their own stories rather than America’s stories; the title track is about Robertson’s struggle with stage fright in his ca..."  [+]  Reply
