"Short but sweet… I could’ve actually done with this one being a lil longer but ah well, I enjoyed what was there :)" Reply
"Not my favorite, but I always liked BTO. No-nonsense, guitar-based rock n' roll. I know the "critics" weren't BTO fans, but to hell with them. These guys rocked and though I'm sure they didn't plan on it at the time, several of their songs have been used for commercials since they were first reco..." [+] Reply

"INXS were a favourite of mine for a good while, Kick was an album I loved and probably overplayed. X came and went, and then this. I remmeber at the time thinking this was their best offering, and listening again I still do. Quality right through, with maybe the exception of the last track, with ..." [+] Reply
"This is an underrated album on this site. Writer's Block is by far the best album from Peter Bjorn & John. The sounds on this album are amazing, so eclectic but in a subtle way. It takes some detailed listening in order to hear all of the subtle instrumentation and layering going down on this alb..." [+] Reply
"This is classic Decemberists! Song topics include children and the loss thereof, historical military, summer vs. winter, sailing, and, of course, lust. And there's plenty of vocabulary, if that's your thing. In addition to big words you already know (obverse, condescend, misbegotten) there's also..." [+] Reply
