"This is an album that truly should be on any list of albums you must hear before you die. Love it or hate it it is a unique experience that must be heard to be believed. Personally I had a smile on my face (when I wasn't outright laughing out loud) for 30 odd minutes, so I must think of this as a..." [+] Reply

"I disagree with junodog4, because Sum 41, like Blink-182, are better when they're serious! "Chuck" is a great album, way better than anything Sum 41 had done before. The lyrics are very serious and dark here. This is a 2004 album, but I feel like the topics they talk about are more relevant than ..." [+] Reply
"By this point, their solo work had far surpassed what they were doing as a group. Despite that, this is still Grade A hip-hop." Reply

"I do like me some Alt-Country, but not the soppy heartbroken cowboy Alt-Country style ( Ryan Adams ‘Heartbreaker’ excepted, Lyle Lovett, Gillian Welch etc) but rather the hard drinking, bar fighting bad boys Alt-Country style and that is why I love Uncle Tupelo and this album in particular This i..."

""Dido's second album contains no less than 4 big radio hits ( "White Flag", "Life For Rent", "Don't Leave Home" and "Sand in My Shoes" ) and at least one or two more are potential hit singles. Dido has a voice than can easily be distinguised from the majority of the female pop-singers of today. (..." [+] Reply
"C'mon. There's some classic/great tracks on here (message,Scorpio,it's nasty) but dreamin and you are, are just horrible. Stevie wonder they were not. Singles wise they were up there with the best of the 80s, album wise no." Reply

"Side one starts out with a couple of downtempo, dreamy explorations, but the rest of the album is more energetic and toe-tapping, though of course modal and a bit abstract. Ron Carter is especially good on this album, constantly cooking underneath whatever else is happening. Great album from Mile..." [+] Reply

"I gave all Styx albums are real beating back in the 80s. This one is no exception. However I have to say although it was their most successful in terms of chart position, I do not rate this album as highly as their predecessor. Side One is pretty solid, but I find the first couple of tracks on Si..." [+] Reply
