"What a phenomenal bassist, man. The harmonics, the melodies, the vibrance and clarity in expression and dynamic mastery. As I said elsewhere, there isn't much that can top Pastorius. Continuum and A Portrait of Tracy are incredibly beautiful, reflective tracks that completely captivate your mind ..." [+] Reply

"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) ..."

"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
"Darker and colder than her first album, Black Origami finds Jlin swimming at the deep end, pulling out all manner of percussive tricks and dehumanised vocal samples to produce a record that demands you move your body without the simple four-to-the-floor template." Reply

"I think this group flies under the radar a little as this is another great album from them to add to their already stacked discography. The music is rich and feels grand and there is so much to explore that it takes so many listens before you finally digest it all fully. Instrumentally, it is ext..." [+] Reply
"Lovely pastoral pop/rock from New Zealand. Probably not as good as Fear of God, The Bats' best, still a solid second." Reply

"What a comeback! Borrows sonically from all eras of music Karin has been involved with and blends them almost seemlessly." Reply

"Excellent live album. Better than any compilation as the tracks on here are all classic AC/DC. Don't like the cover image but the message is clear, 'if you want blood, you've got it'." Reply

"“Quaranta” takes Brown’s music to a more reflective place. Danny thinks about aging, his childhood, and mistakes with a sober glare. While not his most lyrically versatile work, the starkness of his words really hit. “Jenn’s Terrific Vacation” explores an interesting juxtaposition of Brown’s impo..." [+] Reply
