"If you don't feel the groove then you are, in fact, grooveless. Not sure why our track listing was missing side e & f before... not songs to be missed. Probably one of the only exceptions I have for listening to artist compilations. Everything here is just so nicely wrapped up and smooth. RIP Wil..." [+] Reply

"Their mid/late 70's masterpiece. Every track is exceptional, with four masterpieces:- Spirit of the age, Damnation alley, Hassan I sahba and Days of the underground. Space rock never sounded so good!!! And does anyone know what came first - the film Damnation alley (1977) or the track on this LP ..." [+] Reply
"Lots of catchy pop music here. If you're looking for something more edgy, you won't find it." Reply
"What’s the best album no one has heard of ? Music snobs have preached the the virtues of this album for decades and with good reason. Coming out in 69 this album was swamped by the land mark releases from The Beatles, Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin and very much suffered as the hippie summer of ..." [+] Reply

"Feeling meh about this album. This felt quite repetitive for me to listen and sometimes I feel like I've heard something like this before. All I just feel is just meh. I'm sure if you're a major fan you would like it, but someone else I don't know..." Reply

"One of the best record ever. Straight, dry, just the nylon guitar of Bill and the drums of Jim White. So sad not to see in the best 100 ever." Reply
"Oh, I love that guitar and bass aesthetic...what a sleepy, dream atmosphere. London’s voice lilting over top is divine. Nice studio technique shown here too, such as the vocals in the codas to both “Cry Me A River” and “I Love You”." Reply

"In the mid 90s one still felt rock music hadn't exhausted its possibilities of progression. The amount of new, exhilarating stuff coming from Japan at this time certainly pushed that idea aside. In America, some of the most innovative rock was being labeled "math rock" and Polvo, with their own u..." [+] Reply
"As has already been said there is a "Cure" feel about this album via Robert Smith on guitars/keyboards. It is however essentially a Banshee record although Smiths influence cannot be denied(Dazzle, Bring Me The Head.... & Blow The House Down). Other notable tracks are Take Me Back & We Hunger." Reply
