"This record seems to slip under the radar for many KISS fans. It is a solid record working with a fine producer in Vini Poncia. It was a great collection of songs but with a maturity in the writing. KISS was following the Beatles template and went for a turn towards more artistry and craft on thi..."  [+]  Reply

"The first thing to understand about this album is it really isn’t a “Perfume Genius album” as we we’ve come to know and love in the frame of fully accessible shimmering pop treats and more of a Mike Hadreas solo album. Secondly ‘Ugly Season’ is the soundtrack to a dance / performance piece Hadrea..."  [+]  Reply

"As far as EPs go, this one's a winner. If you're a fan of Fleet Foxes, this is essential, and even if you're just a casual enjoyer of their music it's worth a listen, especially (but certainly not only) because of the standout track Mykonos. This EP offers most of what we've come to expect from t..."  [+]  Reply

"For me, it's a shame that these two pieces (Different Trains and Electric Counterpoint) were released together and for the purposes of album rating must be reviewed as one. Different Trains is, for me, a masterpiece in threading together the melody from voice technique with field recordings of tr..."  [+]  Reply

"This is Battles first album since losing their vocalist, and their sound has changed a bit. I would say that their last album, “Mirrored" was strange. Good, but quite strange. I can say how many times I was listening to the song “Atlas" and people looked at me funny. However, this album is a bit ..."  [+]  Reply

"This self-titled album, Indigo Girls' second full-length, is one of the most iconic of my college years, and the album that my high school sweetheart loved more than any other. In terms of production, it's a big step forward from their self-produced debut Strange Fire, and it includes some well-c..."  [+]  Reply
