"In an out of nowhere splash Mckinley Dixon raps about home, urban life, contesting memories of childhood, lost friends and living communities. More specifically, the whole album is a Toni Morrison reference. The title invokes the 'Beloved trilogy' of Morrison historical fiction novels Jazz, Belov..."  [+]  Reply

"DBT return to the fray, this time writing about political/ human rights events that America faces in the 21st century. There are a lot of political pleas here. I don't think they want us to change any minds here, they just want us to listen and think about what is going on in current events. The ..."  [+]  Reply

"Although Wild Wood pretty much set the ball rolling for me in all my musical travels, and Stanley Road has some unquestionably classic songs on, this is the one that gets played most often... the songs are great throughout (not one skipped track!)

"Contains a single unbelievable 24-minute song (A Change of Seasons, and a few decent covers. A must-own for Dream Theater/prog fans; the 24-minute epic is as close to classic prog as Dream Theater would come until Octavarium 10 years later."  Reply

"Big step up from At the Speed of Sound, in my opinion. There are certain tracks I could do without, such as Cuff Link, Name and Address, and the closer - to name a few.

"Difficult to get through all at once without banging that skip button a few times. CVB is more of a good-sounding band than a band with good songs. If it were only trimmed down, there is a great album in here somewhere. Lowery sounds a little like Paul Westerburg at times, but these guys play it ..."  [+]  Reply
