"One of my favorite artists and some good rock 'n' roll. He has this ability to rock one moment and the next belt out sensitive ballads. A superb album to listen too, although in my favorite studio album collection is Stranger In Town." Reply
"The album was recorded in a church. When you listen armed with the knowledge it seems patently obvious, especially the monumental Nothing but Heart; my favourite guitar track this century. The Great Distroyer is still my favourite Low album, it's on my chart. This one will be if I ever get to bei..." [+] Reply
"Excellent album by Jellyfish, grew immensely on me just like Spilt Milk did, though obviously not quite as much. The slick production was definitely a put-off at first, but after loving Spilt Milk I started to realize how good the tunes on Bellybutton were underneath. It's weird how much of this ..." [+] 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

"An essence of Punk runs through the veins of Life's A Riot, which may only be 15 minutes long, but manages to be one of the most well packaged and listenable EPs ever made. Simple at heart, but with excellent lyrics and the distinctive, echoey sound of Bragg's rough guitar, it's a perfect late ni..." [+] Reply

"From track 4 to track 9 you get a great listen, that EP would be 9/10 for me. But the first 3 tracks and the last 2 are definitely not my cup of tea." Reply

"The Stage Names contains several of Okkervil River's best songs, including the wonderful loud rocker "Unless It's Kicks" and the Beach Boys tribute "John Allyn Smith Sails." But the song I want to discuss with you is "A Girl in Port," a piano-driven ballad that explores, deeply and profoundly, th..." [+] Reply

"I struggle to warm to this one - it feels like they're trying to repeat Thick As A Brick, but don't quite make the mark. It has its flashes, but I don't return to this one as often. The last of their prog-heavy records before they momentarily became poppier, before exploring English folk influences." Reply

"This is a really good album, almost sounds like a Beatles' tribute/pastiche at times especially on the wonderful Laura, a kind of John Lennon psychedelic ballad, and the drony, Scandinavian skies. The middle eight of surprises sounds just like George Harrison too. The first half of the album is p..." [+] Reply
