"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
"Damn Tilly. You find the good shit. And you are not wrong. The IDM is so good and melds with dream pop really well." Reply
"I thought I was gonna hate this, but it's actually decent overall! As far as pop rock goes, this album is consistent.

"I'm a huge Monster Magnet fan. I find this their best album. It just oozes end to end of supreme tracks (bar the hidden track which I'll never understand). I know this genre is not everyone's cup of tea, but for me, this is one of the best albums ever. EVER!!!!" Reply
"No indie dance album will make you groove all the way through it like Music for Men by Gossip. Nearly all the elements are there: The lead vocalist will shake you to the bone. The backing band keeps a steady groove, with just the right amount of synths and studio magic, and a hefty dose of post-p..." [+] Reply
"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

"110th best album of 1978? A travesty. This is one of the greatest of all post-punk departures, beautifully crafted songs about the breakdown of love delivered with the decadent sneer of a man on the verge of a drug-induced collapse." Reply
"For what it's worth, the most mind bending live performance I've ever heard." Reply
