"i prefer their upbeat stuff, so this was a slight disappointment. Now, the slower-tempo'd songs are still catchy with multiple choruses, but they're just not the toe tappers like from the previous 3 albums. But you wouldn't know it from opener "my rights versus yours" which has a slow build, but ..." [+] Reply

"This is the ultimate night time album. It helps you breathe deeply. At least for me it does. No other ambient work gives me a physical reaction like this one. Absolutely out of body experience." Reply

"Not quite as brilliant as, pieces of the sky, but, elite hotel, is still another lovely Emmylou Harris record. As always with Harris, there are some great songs including, together again, sweet dreams, and another beautiful Lennon-McCartney cover in, here,there and everywhere. Great stuff." Reply
"This is a great album of latin tropical music. Great bachata and merengue. The molodies are rather beautiful here." Reply
"Ruby may be the best highlight from this album for some. But nothings beats that emotion and that pleasure to raise your fist and sing "The Angry Mob"" Reply

"Very good indie rock album. Best 5 songs average is 89/100 and so the album gets 90/100. I like this sound. Best songs are "Cash machine", "Tied up too tight", "Move on now" and "Better do better" all 90/100, followed by "Middle eastern holiday" and "Hard to beat" both 85/100." Reply

"Let's Rock was a decent album and very listenable but this feels like a real return to form. Got an RL Burnside feel to it" Reply
"This E.P. was my first introduction to Aphex Twin. I'd never heard anything like it before and instantly loved it. The opening track is the most famous, but my least favorite. Faves: Flim, IZ-US.." Reply
