"After the two out-of-nowhere supernovas that were his first two (brief) albums, he settles down here for a slightly more relaxed, somber record- but still just as witty and never with a wasted moment. The sunday-morning hangover record is probably the best way to describe it, or perhaps coming ho..." [+] Reply

"I love this album, gotta say it's better than Backspacer, Lightning Bolt and "Avocado ?" should be ranked higher. Sure those rock harder but this is just much nicer and more interesting in a chill sorta way haha. Underrated, top tier Pearl Jam album!" 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

"This album is simply a new, beautiful and rare masterpiece. Original in style, well balanced & consistent - like one long piece made up of related movements - and totally gorgeous sounds and melodies from start to finish. Probably Goldfrapp's best album, and deserves much higher ratings than curr..." [+] Reply

"In my opinion, Tinderbox is The Banshees at their best. And it's not just for Cities in Dust. Other great tracks include Land's End, Partys Fall, Sweetest Chill" 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

"Phenomenal at some points like Sweet Jane or All The Young Dudes (One of my favorite all time songs) but very weak at others, it seems to Marc Bolan in the second half of the album but he never has the same sensibility" Reply

"The minimilist structure and repetitive rhythm of the album is closer to "Sister Ray" than their seminal debut. The percussion is relentless amongst distorted guitar sounds which trump melody. The latter is effectively abandoned in favour of an eerie narrow expressiveness. The album contains vers..." [+] 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
