"Less feedback and perfectly suited to that late 80's sound of Stone Roses and the like, than Pyschocandy. Still got that edgy sound, especially the last 4 tracks (I have the 10 track vinyl version). First six songs are crackers with Blues From A Gun my favourite track of theirs."

"Not as good as any of Bjork's previous albums, but "Earth Intruders" is a pretty great song."

"As time goes by it becomes more and more apparent how Suede were one, if not THE most important band of the nineties.

"Just a correction on the comments that this is "just a bunch of demos and not a real album". This isn't true. The man himself wanted to release it as an album soon after it was recorded but it was his label that considered it to sound like demos and wouldnt do it.. They wanted them fleshed out. T..." [More]

"It was always Billy Braggs laconic singing voice that attracted me to his music. Hard to describe this album he is a folk rock punk protest singer with heart, intelligence and humour. One of Britains great performers an original album also"

"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..." [More]
