""Un Canto Por México, Vol. 1" is a powerhouse of everything Mexican folk has to offer. Natalia Lafourcade's voice is rich and sweet, she uses it to full capacity on every track. The backing vocals and instrumentals are dripping with energy. In particular, the horns are pleasure on each song. "Un ..."  [+]  Reply

"70-80/100 (Really solid dance punk album. Has some killer tracks to dance to and some that may make you feel very sad - whilst still dancing - and sadly some songs/interlude tracks that seem a bit pointless.) This was actually a very, very sad listen. I feel like this is an incredibly desperate, ..."  [+]  Reply

"It's not the best mash-up album out there. It might not even be the best one released in that year (I think American Edit came out the same year.) Nonetheless, while the album proper probably won't be remembered, what we WILL remember this for is that it launched the career of one of the greatest..."  [+]  Reply

"The production and samples are tight. Check out the laid-back guitar-lick sample on "pyrex vision" or cooing woos on "new wu". (the opening "have mercy" sample reminds me of messiah's "21st century jesus".) The delivery is often commanding and in-your-face like opening song "house of flying dagge..."  [+]  Reply

"Sacramento duo Blackalicious is fronted by one of the most underrated MC's in the business, Gift of Gab, whose raps are jam-packed with internal rhymes, allusions, metaphors, ten-cent words, and amazing tongue-twisting feats of skill. Blazing Arrow, one of the richest, most captivating albums eve..."  [+]  Reply

"Talk about an underrated album. "Grand Theft Autumn (Where Is Your Boy,)" and "Saturday" are both solid pop/punk tracks. "Chicago Is So Two Years Ago" is actually my favorite Fall Out Boy song, and among my fifty favorite songs of all time. Great stuff here."  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

"So I've given it a bit more time and attention. The highs became really high and the lows turned out to be growers/slow burners I wasn't in the mood for. Fantastic, even if a bit less energetic."  Reply

"I wasn't a big fan of Thrice until I heard this album. When I did, I thought, there is hope for American rock in the 2000s. Also notable releases by the band are Major/Minor and The Alchemy index, which almost made this list instead because of its concept: The 4 classical elements of Fire/Water a..."  [+]  Reply
