"So atmospheric and immersing, catchy hooks and thoroughly enjoyable throughout. Some tracks drag, some bits are a little boring but overall, I actually really enjoyed this album. Its ambient, delayed instrumentation is really good and the roomy sort of effect that goes on throughout really create..."  [+]  Reply

"The greatest live album ever made in my opinion. This is the recording of Bruce Springsteen's first ever show in the U.K. It's absolutely stunning. You can tell Springsteen is fired up for this, a little nervous even. The wonderful, thunder road, kicks off the show in it's acoustic piano incarnat..."  [+]  Reply

"Not quite the Kinks' most consistent album, but it has no shortage of outstanding cuts. There were minor hits in 'Destrooyer,' 'Around the Dial' and the title cut, but also look for great deep cuts in 'Add it Up,' 'Back to Front,' and the wonderful closer 'Better Things.'"  Reply

"This album is my kind of shit. Oddly enough, One Hot Minute has always been my favorite RHCP album, but Frusciante has always been my favorite member of the Peppers. Figure that one out.

"I hear a lot of early 90s techno, a la psychosonic, in "zonoscope", more a broadly coherent statement than their last album. It'll be a difficult task deciding whether this is better than "in ghost colors" or not."  Reply
