"I agree that it is the same song over and over for an hour, but goddamn is it a fucking great song. There's not a ton of dynamic range, but Callahan finds new layers and ideas track after track. If you want a beautiful, poignant folk epic, this one doesn't disappoint."  Reply

"Talking to cat's, breakdowns in a tent, asking your doctor what their favourite band is, and worrying about the minutae of day-to-day life constitute the lyrical preoccupation's of this album. However, it is not sweetly sung, rather screamed, howled, and shouted whilst a roiling sea of noise swir..."  [+]  Reply

"This album used to confuse me. I didn't get it. I thought it was a compilation of early solo recordings of Simon whilst he was a member of Simon & Garfunkel. Then I finally stopped my nonsense and researched it. Turns out this was made when Simon was taking a bit of a hiatus from his burgeoning a..."  [+]  Reply

"After 8 months I still can't get enough of this album. I've held off on putting it in my top 10, but I think now it's going there. The album is beautifully melancholy while also being optimistic...the emotions that went into the songwriting on this album is as genuine as the guys in Keane. I've s..."  [+]  Reply

"This is where Megadeth starts to go for more hard rock than pure heavy metal, but they do it with mostly awesome success. Dave was at his vocal peak here as well. Train of consequences, Toute le Monde, and reckoning day are among the bands classic songs. The band began a slow decline after this a..."  [+]  Reply

"It feels like a long, warm embrace. Love the guitar playing and strings arrangements, and Ms Marling is as strong as ever lyrically. Moving stuff, really, perfect for the fall season"  Reply

"Funnily enough, "Timeless" does feel like it's going on forever, but it is a remarkable record that still feels fresh and smooth. Must be some sort of magnum opus in the D&B genre."  Reply
