"For a period in my life, I couldn't believe that Slowdive would reunite and ever release another album. After a 22-year-long hiatus, they prove not only that they are a staple in the shoegazing genre, but also that their ambition has peaked to an unprecedented height. In comparison to the low-pro..."

"I love this album. This was my first wilco record and I remember as a 14 year old St Louis music fan this album was a revelation! I was hooked! Yeah, just about every song is great! And the varied stylistic range of the tracks is super impressive. "How To Fight Loneliness" still gets me every tim..." [+] Reply

"I feel like I should explain my last comment. When most people people think of emotional 80's music, their mind usually jumps to The Smiths. And while I really enjoy The Smiths, their music, and their lyrics, I don't feel like they're describing problems I've had or things I've thunk, so it's har..." [+] Reply

"Oh this album is so much fun. I'm being totally serious. It's heavy, loud, and fast. I have no idea how they can play and sing so fast but it really takes me by storm and makes my adrenaline pump. The high-pitched tales of the terrors of hell are awesomely hilarious. Completely over the top lyric..." [+] Reply

"Sometimes tension in the studio can remarkably create classic albums , The Beatles 'White Album' and Fleetwood Mac's 'Rumours' are cases in point. You can also add Sued's 'Dog Man Star' to that list Rehearsals for 'Dog Man Star' were very tense and would split the band into two separate camps. Be..." [+] Reply

"I held expectations that I would most likely dislike this record, but upon giving it the opportunity to impress me,I was mystified. How can something so intensely raucous and screechingly unsympathetic to the human ear (which always expects and is attuned to harmony, resolution, and, most appropr..." [+] Reply

"DM's best album and the one that saw them finally enter stadium land. Tough and uncompromising, Masses was a further evolution of their sound - revisiting some of their favourite themes i.e. love, sex, death, and religion." Reply

"When people think of Prince's best album, usually people point to either Purple Rain or Sign O' The Times. For me personally, I point to 1999 as his best album. It includes 3 classic hits (1999, Little Red Corvette, Delirious) and it includes hands down the best fusion of rock, funk, R&B, & new w..." [+] Reply

"This album confuses me. Sometimes I feel like it is pretty good, but not quite great. Other times I feel like it is my favorite album of all time. Tracks 1-7 are some of my favorite U2 songs except for the instrumental 4th of July. After that there isn't too much going on. I like this album more ..." [+] Reply
