"Cat's best album, IMO. The raw production most of the songs makes it hold up well almost 50 years later, I guess the acoustic nature of folk music is generally rather timeless in style. Funny piece of trivia: the name of the album was Cat's name for a certain, uh, masculine part of his body - whi..."  [+]  Reply

"It's barely listenable, the songs have no discernible structures, and each vocal melody sounds like a dog being horribly maimed. I mean, it better be one of the best emo records ever recorded."  Reply

"Even though this album is widely considered a Paul Westerberg solo album for the purposes of this review it will be considered as The Replacements final release The Replacements in many ways echo the career of R.E.M with 'All Shook Down': both darling indi bands who find major label success only ..."  [+]  Reply

"After Going deaf for Living, this album was way darker, also because the new input of the keyboards. But their direct statements were much more meaningful and founded the success for the band of John Watts in europe. Side A is an absolute classic. And B with Cruise Missiles and Luton to Lisbon a ..."  [+]  Reply

"Camille Saint-Saëns’ “Danse Macabre" is one of my favorite pieces of music because it musically represents death so incredibly well. You listen to it, and it just sounds like death, it sounds like the music of the dead. Every sound in that piece sounds like it’s coming from a ghost itself. Not si..."  [+]  Reply

"The tackier, more offensive bits on this record had me rolling my eyes but they still can not overshadow how unique this record was in 1988. Ricks flow and story telling rhymes are still shockingly fresh and original and its clear that later stars like Snoop Dog and Nas loved this record."  Reply

"I have the same problem with this albums like I have with Star Wars. It doesn't feel like a real Wilco-album. Both albums feel like some songs from a demo tape. It's a nice compilation of songs that didn't fit on the regular albums. This a not the visonary songs that made Wilco great. It feels li..."  [+]  Reply
