"This is the album that began the final phase of Cohen's career, a phase that also includes Dear Heather, Popular Problems, Old Ideas, and You Want it Darker. In my opinion, Ten New Songs is the best of that lot (though You Want it Darker is also a contender). It is also one of Cohen's greatest al..."  [+]  Reply

"Criminally underrated album. Some of the best songs in all of Browne's career…"Something Fine", "Rock Me On the Water", "From Silver Lake", etc. are all worthy of 95-100 ratings. There's really not a moment of this record that I don't love, even if the production is a little rough, and it's secon..."  [+]  Reply

"Porcupine Tree weakest album in recent times. The biggest issue I have with the album is not necessarily the songs but the way they have been put together. It starts off well but into tracks 3 and 4 - it sounds like Steven Wilson is singing live to an audience a medley of his past hits that he do..."  [+]  Reply

"Night Palace has been celebrated online as the Mount Eerie album that sounds the most like Phil Elverum's work in the Microphones. It's interesting that this would happen when the solo project has covered so much ground that builds on different aspects of the Microphones sound, whether that's the..."  [+]  Reply

It sounds like a modern, grown up version of Mellon Collie, they haven't lost all their energy or creativeness, but there isn't alot of emotion. Mellon Collie ha..."  [+]  Reply
