"Much has been made of the the way JAMC changed their sound throughout their career. For me, there wasn’t as much variation as is often suggested - and that’s no bad thing. Their brand of bubblegum melodies wrapped in barbed wire feedback and guitars works brilliantly. This album is a gauzy ride w..." [+] Reply

"For some reason I never noticed it before, but this album is a lot like Talk Talk's Spirit of Eden. And with each listen is grows more and more profound. From the poetic lyrics, to the brilliant musicianship that blends jazz and post rock into lush arrangements. It's an album that seems much simp..." [+] Reply

"Whether or not this is a bunch of old outtakes or unfinished tracks doesn't really make a difference to my ears. Elliott’s masterful and seemingly effortless songwriting shines through often without much instrumental backing other than a clean acoustic guitar. It's not lo-fi like Roman Candle or ..." [+] Reply
"A quirky soul record. It's full of great little tracks which at first seem underwhelming but repeated listens brings out it's brilliance. Cool sounds." Reply

"The only problem with this album is that it is only half and hour long. I have literally listened to this album everyday for the last few months, no exaggeration. Every song from this album has over a hundred plays on my iTunes." Reply
"Widely acclaimed as one of the best hip hop albums released, this record has influenced a huge number of hip hop artists since it's release in 1988 and set many trends, particularly the structure and patterns of Kool Keith's lyrics which have been unintentionally replicated (sometimes intentional..."

"Arguably Rory Gallagher's best studio effort. His best work was done live, but this is definitely worth a listen. Several of these tracks were performed on his landmark Irish Tour album. This is blues-rock at its finest." Reply

"I love this album, I love all the Editors albums. Quite an underrated band I feel. This album is fresh and a return to their more rock sound they had on their first 2 albums. Sugar, The Weight, Hyena and Ton Of Love are my favourites. One of my very favourites of 2013." Reply
"A completely underrated and overlooked album. 9, Damien Rice's follow up to the excellent, O, is every bit as good as that record. It's predominately an acoustic LP but this time Rice adds electric instruments on some tracks and the album has a more challenging sound to it. Some great songs here ..." [+] Reply
"Very good solo record. It runs slightly out of steam towards the end but for the most part it's a solid and eclectic album with nods to pop, soul, blues, jazz and rock." Reply
