"82/100 The "Krautrock" inspiration that Yo La Tengo adopts on their latest project is a really interesting aspect and asset. This album symbolizes imperfection, it's efficient when it's simple, intriguing and fascinating when it gets lost, it's never marvellous but it remains very charming. In an..." [+] Reply

"THE BANISHED ANGEL Angels can sin. I bet you didn’t know that. But they can. They can take their station next to God for granted. Become ungrateful. Arrogant. And then they fall to Earth. To watch over us. As penance to get back into God’s graces. They don’t know how many souls they have to save...." [+] Reply

"This album seemed to come from nowhere and was pivotal to the whole early 90's alternative movement. It is one of my favorite albums and is solid all the way through. It is a mix of soft and catchy tunes with hooks and sideline diversions." Reply

"This album is an underrated gem, and I suppose was slightly out of place for the time it was released back in 1991. However, really this another classic album from Dire Straits that stands the test of time. Ticket To Heaven is the sleeper tack and timeless track on this album for me." Reply

"The Satanist is in a league of it's blackened death metal own. Very dark, very powerful, very Behemoth. Conceptually, it will not go down as my favorite album. Knowing that Nergal plays the part almost to a T (is he really a "satanist"? I suspect, yes, and I won't debate that with others), it doe..." [+] Reply
"1981 would mark the peak of arena rock -- corporate rock to the critic class. Between them, Hi Infidelity, Foreigner 4, Styx's Paradise Theater, and Journey's Escape sold approximately 30 million units. This November 1980 release kicked things off with a mix of power balladry and hard rock with p..." [+] Reply
