"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
"Gojira's best album, a thundering beast of epic proportions. Slightly better than From Mars to Sirius due to a better focus with less repetition. Both albums make up there best to date though. The Art of Dying is one of the best progressive metal pieces these ears have ever heard." Reply

"One of the best record ever. Straight, dry, just the nylon guitar of Bill and the drums of Jim White. So sad not to see in the best 100 ever." Reply
"Still an above average album overall, but Leave in Silence is the only track I truly enjoy." 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

"The only pop/rock male/female duo i can recall at the time consistently putting out catchy little pop songs. "The Look" is all sorts of summed-up-80s-cool with its synth-tension and annie-lennox-esque backing vocal. The rest of the album is fairly good too (see "dressed for success" and "dance aw..."

"Will someone please tell me why America didn't love this? The 2nd album from Gomez was a hit just about everywhere in the world except for the US. It's loaded with great hooks, from "Hangover" and "Bring It On" to "Rhythm & Blues Alibi" and "Fill My Cup". I remember sitting in traffic with Ann on..." [+] Reply

"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

"Wow, not many recent albums quite have this level of emotional power, and it's great proof how the rock guitar can still be a valuable weapon. A nearly perfect first half is followed by an almost equally fascinating but uneven second half, but for an album that sort of makes a habit of walking on..." [+] Reply
