"Tim Kasher, singer and eccentric frontman of Cursive, wrote two masterpieces in the course of two years: The Ugly Organ and The Good Life’s Black Out. Both albums display his trademark ironic and self deprecating lyrics. This album is sonically amazing with the addition of Gretta Cohn on cello an..."  [+]  Reply

"Mudhoney somehow gets overlooked when people give credit to 80s alt-rock pioneers. These guys are a tiny step behind the Pixies. This and Superfuzz are their best."  Reply

"This album may be a little underrated, but I don't think it's one of Rush's best. Still, it's an important release because it shows a band stretching their prog rock wings. We have true epics for the first time in the Rush catalog ("By Tor and the Snow Dog" from FBN was like a mini epic) in the f..."  [+]  Reply

"One of the most underrated and overlooked albums of the sixties. John Sebastian was one of the best songwriters of the era and there are some excellent songs here,(although a bit inconsistent as a whole), especially the absolutely brilliant, summer in the city, one of the great songs of the time."  Reply

"Deerhunter always explores a new sound with each release. This time, it feels a lot more baroque pop and somewhat psychedelic. There's probably some influences from Tame Impala's "Lonerism" and Flaming Lips' "The Soft Bulletin." It all feels very Deerhunter nonetheless. There's a lot going on in ..."  [+]  Reply

"Check out the LongChain concept behind this album. The premise revolves around a sunken slave ship that crashes and the slaves live free lives underwater, hence slaves=waves. The production on a lot of songs has a crazy aquatic vibe and Lupe bounces off the beats effortlessly incorporating some o..."  [+]  Reply
