The Pink Opaque 
Compilation
"This was the first Cocteau Twins album I heard, so I heard this, not as a greatest hits album but as a studio album...it really changed my idea of what pop/rock could be in the way that "Velvet Underground and Nico" did..When I heard "Spangle Maker", I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I think..."  [+]  Reply

"Better than anything coming out of the US IMO. Grime has got a more legit sound in that it doesn't dress itself up to please a mainstream audience. Skepta does, however, ensure that his art is well dressed enough to please due to great production, killer beats and catchy tunes. I love the mix of ..."  [+]  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

"Another good INXS album, but then they all were from Shabooh Shoobah until Full Moon, Dirty Hearts. Not up to the standard of LLT, SS, The Swing, Kick or WTWYA, but not too far behind. INXS classics in the first three tracks and Bitter Tears, all up there with their best tracks but there are just..."  [+]  Reply

"An A-side to die for followed by a rather disappointing B-side (not bad, mind you, just a disappointment when following what came before it). The best track is the stellar version of Robert Johnson's Walkin' Blues followed by Work Song which features some of the best blues harmonica ever put on r..."  [+]  Reply

"Ok let's address the Elephant in the room .. and of course I'm referring to Track 6 "Rollin With The Flow" . Holy cow it's an awful cover of an equally awful track and who ever ticked it off for inclusion on this album should slap themselves in the face . Hand's down contender for worst 2018 trac..."  [+]  Reply

"I feel that some of these tracks reek early 90's as well as having a song like Shake, which was easily the worst song on the album. However songs like Set Adrift on Memory Bliss, Paper Doll, Reality Used to Be a Friend of Mine,A Watchers Point of View, Even After I Die and On A Clear Day were som..."  [+]  Reply

"This is hard to rate because the guitars are fantastic but that's all there is. I don't mean it like it's not enough but occasionally it feels more like a talent show than an album to me. With that said, the guitar playing is inventive and original. The melodies are catchy on each song. There are..."  [+]  Reply
