"Outstanding dark, gothic album with great riffs and wicked lyrics. I wouldn't have though Jim Steinman and Sisters of Mercy made for a good marriage, but the two Steinman-penned songs, More and When You Don't See Me, come across perfectly. The rest is also excellent, especially the title cut and ..." [+] Reply

"This posthumous release proves Stevie could do acoustic as well as electric, and the acoustic songs also allow the soul in his voice to shine through." Reply

"This deserves to be MUCH higher. Mind blown. Aretha's version of Amazing Grace is beyond amazing and makes this among my top 5 all time favorite albums." Reply
"I'll have to remember to put this on my list once we can expand to 100. What a beautiful album from one of my favorite games of all-time." Reply

"I can understand the backlash directed toward this album: Within Temptation's fusion of 80s pop rock and 00s symphonic metal is now complete. Still, it's a collection of consistent songs with quite a few standout moments. It's a concept album, but the story - like most concept albums - is impenet..." [+] Reply
"I only stumbled across this band in 2021 with A Fever Dream and I loved that. This album started and initially I hated it until it got to the middle set of songs and I warmed to them. Even the first 3 or 4 listens I was still feeling no love for the opening half - suddenly something clicked and I..." [+] Reply
"It took me a long time to warm up to this one. Maybe it was the soft jazz of the opening track. Maybe it was the operatic vocals on the second track. Maybe it was the marimbas. But in general it felt a tad too precious. Like they were trying to create the most new-agey sounding album of the 70s, ..." [+] Reply

"While I agree with many on this site that you are best exploring an artist’s original releases rather than live or studio complications, I find Neil Young to be the exception. If I had to recommend two Neil Young albums for a newb, I’d suggest Decade and Live Rust. Neil’s catalog is extremely dee..." [+] Reply
