"uugggghhhhhhh this album is so frustrating. It sucks because it has great songs like aberdeen, shake me down, rubber ball, right before my eyes and around my head, but it also has painfully obviously worse songs like sell yourself and indy kidz...gooooooddddddd i kinda get what they were going fo..."

"The debut album of Australia's modern rock legends. 'The Living End' combines the raw energy of punk rock with head-spinning rockabilly swing and takes the term "power trio" to a new level. Perfect at any volume and under whatever circumstance. All killer and no filler - it is an instan..." [+] Reply

"A sequel just as bonkers and brilliant as the first. Totally ridiculous metal, a kind of hybrid of Iron Maiden and Queen. Great fun songs in, Dr. Stein, rise and fall, and, March of time. Unbelievably catchy." Reply

"the marketing of this album is misleading...these were songs that I used to hear on our AM top 40 station the way you hear Black eyed peas or whatever crap they are playing on the radio today...it wasn't the fringe element back then. I have most of these on 45's" Reply

"I'm sorry, Views is utter trash. One Dance is by far the worst song I heard in 2016 and it says alot about how generic Drake got after Hotline Bling that he even threw it in as a desperate extra bonus track. After the If You're Listening mixtape, which I thought was really great, this is Drake re..." [+] Reply

"Swan Song of the classic 10 CC line-up, perhaps their best album... After the release of the excellent "The Original Soundtrack" (1975), which became their commercial breakthrough, thanks to the hit Im Not In Love, 10CC naturally wanted to build on the success, and "How Dare You" turned out to be..."

"This album surprised me. Initially listening to it, I thought it sounded like off brand Weezer coming with a soft summery alt rock vibe. And then I really sat down and paid attention to this album and it blew me away. A more accurate description of this album would be Weezeresque, but with small ..." [+] Reply

"A much less consistent album than, astral weeks, or, moondance. Any of the tracks on this album would have been filler on those majestic records. Still, it's an enjoyable LP, with, domino, blue money, and, gypsy queen, some of the standouts, although in truth there's nothing spectacular here. Jus..." [+] Reply
