"Glad that you enjoyed her, so influential..She reminds me a little of Rickie lee Jones (1979-present) who I am sure that you are familiar with although she is also not on this website.

"Of course everybody refers to their first album as their best but in my opinion this album is nearly as good; not only because it has their best track (Ever Fallen In Love) but also because all the other ones are top Buzzcocks as well (with Operators Manual as the second best)." Reply

"A great debut from a band who strongly believes that punk is still relevant and shows it here and throughout the follow up. Nothing to Lose breaks my heart. There are at least eight great songs here, all together." Reply

"After 2 run of the mill 90's alternative grunge albums, Neon Ballroom follows with and attempt to branch out. The album is uneven with melodic pop songs intermixed with rehashed grunge songs. I prefer the direction Silverchair is heading on songs like Emotion Sickness, Steam WIll Rise, Miss You L..." [+] Reply

"Loved the singles and their music videos! They put out some of my favorite singles of any artist so far this year so I just knew I'd love the album too. Well ok I was hoping I'd love the whole album and it didn't disappoint. Bane is a great opener and Chicago is a super cool and unexpected song. ..." [+] Reply
