"I think I like Korn. But it's difficult for me to manage them unless it's in small doses. At an hour and 10 minutes with an average song length of over 4.5 minutes (not counting the interlude/bonus track), this is much too big of a dose of Korn for me to enjoy. If "Freak on a Leash" or "Children ..." [+] Reply

"Kicking against the pricks, is one of those rare covers albums, where instead of sounding like an indulgent karaoke record, here, it actually sounds like an LP. Opener, muddy water, is possibly the best song here, just like he does on most of the tracks, Cave really makes it his own. By the time ..." [+] Reply

"Forget about all the new fans that enjoy the silly new album and take advice from a longtime fan, this is their best album. Attack and Release is their 2nd best. Some great hard rock/blues guitar playing and solid singing going on here.This is some real garage rock!" Reply

"Superb debut album from Messrs Geffen and Wilson. Particular favourites are Blackfield, Lullaby, Summer, Cloudy Now and Hello." Reply

"Definitely the best from Machine Head; most of all, one of the very few albums not standard metal who deserves to be listened." Reply

"This is the first CD I ever owned. I'd worked all summer and spent every cent on a hi-fi system that included that new invention, the CD player.
