"If you don't like metal this album isn't for you. If you do, it's essential. Personally this is my favorite Slayer album, and one of my favorite thrash albums. So many great riffs, and the drumming is amazing. Production quality is a little low, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing, it adds to ..." [+] Reply
"Everything Nas does gets unfairly compared to Illmatic. Everyone knows this. It shouldn't impair your enjoyment of what is a truly great album." Reply
"I like the album overall but its too long for me to really love. If they cut out 3 tracks here this could have been something great." Reply
"Often classified as an instrumental hip hop album, Deadringer feels to me like a fully realized artistic achievement compared, say, to something DJ Shadow might make. There's a surprising amount of emotional range here, and the fragments of samples that make up the album feel like they were alway..." [+] Reply

"“Warm Chris” is carried by Harding’s vocal skill. She switches between gentle whispers, cartoonish repeats, and soulful croons with ease. The different styles keep the album surprising and make the songs feel their own. Unfortunately, the instrumentals fall into much more predictable coffee shop ..." [+] Reply
"I never thought that they would top the Saturation Trilogy, but this album is phenomenal. It's incredibly tight and focused, not wasting a single second. It hits you hard and fast, and it's infectiously catchy. It's Brockhampton at their absolute best. Don't sleep on this one." Reply

"It's almost criminal that this album is rated as low as it is. Way better than 10,000th : (" Reply
