"This is a group with a lot of potential. Every song is about another person on the cover. I think the production is almost perfect across the album, however the songwriting could use some improvements. There are some flawless moments on here like Agnes, The Other Side of Paradise, and Youth. None..."  [+]  Reply

"It's the best they've sounded since Riot Act. Last Pearl Jam album I bought was self titled and I was so underwhelmed by it that I didn't get anything after it until now. Dance Of The Clairvoyants is such a killer first single IMO and people are either loving it or hating it. I love how different..."  [+]  Reply

"Red Alert and Always Be There had a lovely sound. Bingo Bango reminds me of Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag which is not an awful thing. Feels sweaty. Exciting to dance to. Keeps playing for a very long time. Good stuff indeed."  Reply

"The New Pornographers have largely recaptured the magic of their first 3 albums, pumping multiple hooks into the majority of these abnormal pop/rock tracks. The poppiest tracks still mostly emanate from AC, the loveliest from Neko and the strangest from Bejar (harmonica solo!), but the tracks are..."  [+]  Reply

"No sophomore slump here for Hozier. Building upon the melancholy mood he brought to us in his debut "Take Me To Church" Hozier finds the proper balance between retro- Van Morrison aping Irish soul, and the 21st century. He's comfortable name-dropping James Brown and Curtis Mayfield in a nod to hi..."  [+]  Reply

"These tracks are better listened to in isolation (not you personally, independent of each other I mean) as listening to the whole album in one go can become a little samey. Some cracking tracks on their follow up Welcome to the North too. perhaps a band that never quite became the big noise this ..."  [+]  Reply

"Great early eighties album by the Moody Blues where they are kind of, just hanging on to prog but also embracing the more 'radio friendly' soft rock approach. Despite the loss of Mike Pinder, oh master of the Mellotron, the keyboard corner still brings forth many layers of sound that blend seamle..."  [+]  Reply

"Not a bad album by any means. This is Deftones moving forward, and never making the same album twice. The production can be hard to stomach at times as it is quite abrasive, but I understand it’s intentional and certainly distinguishes it further from their previous two efforts. Not as solid or a..."  [+]  Reply

"Been listening to this non stop at the minute. Classics. Seem to love more now than at the time it came out. It's a compilation and remixes but sounds like a studio album. Doesn't sound dated at all to me anyways. Right, think I'll stick it on again. Got to be up there with the best remixers ever..."  [+]  Reply

Blur: The Best Of 
Compilation
"For a band largely known for their singles, this is a great album to get if you're a Blur fan, or if you like Blur but not enough to buy their full albums. Best tracks: Song 2, Coffee and TV, Tender Worst track: Charmless Man"  Reply
