"It was only recently I learned of the sad passing of FOW founding member Adam Schlesinger in April 2020 of COVID related complications so I’ve going back over the FOW catalogue I so adored through the 90’s and early 2000’s. The 3 peat of ‘Fountains of Wayne’ (1996), ‘Utopia Parkway’ (1999) and ‘W..." [+] Reply

"Eskimo is great if you listen to it as an audio-story. In my opinion is the story of a community of Eskimos who live in the Arctics. Then come the American colonizers, with their machines and their capitalism. After violent brainwashing manipulations (in tracks 4 and 5) eventually the Eskimos are..." [+] Reply

"Such a fun album the year it was released. I fell in love with Edie and the New Bohemian sound. It was simple, yet some of the songs off kilter and a touch sad. It was something different at the time, and when I saw them in Toronto's Massey Hall, I threw my flip-up sunglasses up to Edie and she p..." [+] Reply
"Not a very original album for the post-punk genre. There are traces of Joy Division, Interpol, Wire, The Strokes, and even some Stooges thrown all over the record.

"PSYCHODRAMA is the first album to completely deliver on the promise UK hip hop has shown in the past few years. There's been some good records in the grime scene, most prominently Skepta's 'Konnichiwa' and Wiley's 'Godfather', but for the most part even the best of these feel like a modern update..." [+] Reply
"Not as good as any of Bjork's previous albums, but "Earth Intruders" is a pretty great song." Reply
