"Weezer at their silliest. Negative Nancy's will point to a band unwilling to age gracefully or that they have become a satire of themselves. It has enough personality that reminds me of the their first 2 albums. That's refreshing because Make Believe and the Green Album lacked it. Similar to the ..." [+] Reply

"The point where I got into Depeche, true, there are some weak songs but hating on it is a bit like criticising your childhood teddy bear for having bad stitching. Leave it alone!!" Reply

"To me, this is one of the greatest albums of the entire 1980s decade, regardless of music genre. It is a journey in sound/sonics with just enough of a story line to engage the listener. And the second portion is some of the finest ambient music, ever. Fantastic guest musicians, including Robert F..." [+] Reply
"Amazing album, there are bangers there are tears, there is hell of a lot of glam there are shivers and there is a ton of originality as well as some really fresh tributes to 80s music. The band mixes contemporary indie with some reaally good punk and a touch of pop and trap. (yeah that's a lot bu..." [+] Reply
"Before commenting on the listening process, I have to confess my love for the cover of this album. One might argue that it's a completely irrelevant aspect, but here it's not so much about Its aesthetic value as a standalone piece of art, but more as an accurate representation of what you are abo..."

"I regard flowers in the dirt as one of Paul McCartney's best solo albums. About a third of the songs are written with Elvis Costello, and they are amongst some of the best tracks here. My brave face, is superb, and, that day is done, is also very good. There are other excellent cuts on the record..." [+] Reply

"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

"“Knocking at Your Back Door” is so rousing! The title track stands out too. Really not a bad song on the album. This is the best work they’d done in years." Reply

""Burial At Sea" always makes me choke up for some reason. Such a sad song. Reminds me of "Adagio In G Minor."" Reply
"Saw this at the top of a music journalist's 2021. Not my usual cup of tea, but it's good for scratching an old school rock, hard rock, itch with a little 90s alternative/grunge seasoning." Reply
