"I'm honestly really surprised Shiina Ringo doesn't have more recognition from this site. A lot of people call her a J-pop artist, although I think pop rock or simply alternative rock are probably more appropriate; that's not all that important and perhaps me (being primarily a fan of rock music) ..."

"I don't know if this is breaking any new ground, maybe not but the playing is great and the riffs are really catchy. Gets a bit samey after the first half, but I like this band's sound so much that I didn't mind. Thrash/death metal classic and a great listen. I'd feel bad for anyone who missed bo..." [+] Reply

"Not a bad album at all. I quite enjoyed it. I wouldn't call it amazing, but I'd listen to it again!" Reply
"Jon Hassell cleverly combines his electronic processing of sound with tribal/environmental recordings, giving this album a real sense of strangeness and wonder. Beware! The opening track will make you think your speakers are f*cked. I used to play this album all the time when I was younger and my..." [+] Reply
"On 2011's The Hunter, Mastodon shed their sludge roots and their recent progressive tendencies, shifting to a straightforward hard rock sound. On this record, they bring back a bit of the prog, but are still leaning heavily on catchy riffs and choruses. It hasn't done much to appease fans of thei..." [+] Reply

"A surprisingly good album. There are points where his youth shows but I thought it would be much more juvenile. Tim uses his accented voice like on Hello Goodbye and I prefer his more free vocals that started on Happy Sad but they're still fantastic vocals. He puts together some really nice melod..." [+] Reply

"I was 11 years old when this album came out. My brother had just started learning to play bass. Naturally, this is the record he wanted to learn to play. Taking his lead, this quickly became my favorite album of that time. I was obsessed. Calypool's bass still sounds like no other." Reply
