"This album shredded my heart into a million pieces, taped it back together, gave it confidence, and then peed on it. Absolutely incredible roller-coaster of emotion. Instrumentation is superb as well. A couple tracks I could've lived without. But still a crushing blow to the pop-punk scene's emot..." [+] Reply

"Trippy as hell. The first track is one of the absolute trippiest things I've ever had. The whole thing's got a whole disorienting, low-fi quality to it. Very special album. Blew my mind when I first listened to it." Reply

"The record Dave Grohl referred to as Motorhead doing Sgt Pepper. Much better than Sonic Highways indeed. Most out of left field Foo Fighters album possibly ever. It's very different for them. Huge Beatles vibe to it. I'm actually in love with that aspect of this. This, to me, is probably the reco..." [+] Reply

"It lumbers out literally with a mostly-uninteresting "shanty for the arethusa", but after that, there's no let up. "billy liar" is a jaunty farce starting "Billy Liar's got his hands in his pockets / Staring over at the neighbor's, knickers down." Sarcastic ode "los angeles, i'm yours" backhanded..." [+] Reply

"The best album of Japan" Reply
"The pressure was on to produce a classic album following the success of The Grand Illusion. While this album doesn't quite reach the heights of TGI, it is still very worthy of a Top 100 position. The second side of the album is filled with one great track after another. The first side is a bit we..." [+] Reply
