"An absolute standout country record (probably more folk than country) from legendary Texas songwriter. He writes them here like no one else. Also check him out in the movie Heartworn Highways. He passed in 2016. Essential. Track Pick: Desperados Waiting for Train" Reply
"Perfect mix of synthpop, post punk/new wave and electronic rock. Such a great album! Wonderful melancholy vocals." Reply

"Definitely Sonic Youth's worst album. They just repeated the same formula they used on Dirty, but this time, they made it noisy and boring. There isn't much to say about most of the songs, they're mostly just forgettable and straight up boring. However there are a few gems in here: Bull In the He..." [+] Reply

"This album's a little more serious, or sullen if you may, than their first two. Take "don't change your plans" which finds Ben Folds in the autumn of love sitting on his suitcase with the end of the relationship in sight, closing the song "i love you, goodbye". i love the tragic beauty of "mess",..."

"I can see where a lot of people hate everything about the spice girls from the way the group was formed to their pre-teen songs. However, it worked and for about two years they ruled the airwaves. I personally like Wannabe and 2 Become 1 the most." Reply
"The first half of, eagle, was great, but overall, I think this is a more consistent record from start to finish. She seems to get better as she gets older, although those Laurel Canyon obsessions still shine brightly, albeit quite beautiful. A very good album." Reply

"Solid psychedelic rock. “I Got a Line on You” is one of the great songs of the era—of any era." Reply

"This is actually a very good comeback album, which comes as a surprise as while I'm a fan of both the OG band and Steven Wilson's solo material, I have not liked the guys recent solo releases at all. Singles Harridan and Of The New Day open the album up strongly, and later songs like Walk the Pla..." [+] Reply
