"No, it's not all doom and gloom on this one. Black Sabbath evolved and this album shows how much they grew.

"For me this is comfortably album of the decade so far . Rich, varied and complex compositions with production and mixing par excellence. Kamasi and his cohorts have made sublime stuff here and it's possibly the finest jazz release of the century." Reply
"I'm with Gary! Before anyone calls me a knob :) or says my comment is unhelpful let me try and put it in context. I am extremely respectful of what Queen achieved, Freddie was one of the very best showmen with a unique voice, and as a band I am absolutely aware they released some of the most icon..." [+] Reply

"Understandably overshadowed by what would come later from the Mk II version of the band. However, this is a very solid debut album that the Mk I version of the band would never be able to top. Hush, Mandrake Root, Help!, and Hey Joe are all great." Reply

"Trippy and woozy, perfect to get drunk to. Whoever thinks club music can't be genuinely good pieces of art needs to listen to this album." Reply
"It may not be as good as Angel Dust, King For A Day, and The Real Thing, but it is still another great addition to the Faith No More CD collection, and FNM returns strong. Best track is Superhero." Reply
