"I clearly recall my sister got this album ( vinyl of course) for Christmas 1980. I’d never heard of Flowers and the how who and why she got this album under tree really is one of life’s mysteries considering we grew up in regional Australia in a time there was no internet and the local radio was ..."  [+]  Reply

"Bone shaking, earth shattering rock, but a little too repetitious. White and Mosshart both can write better material then this. The weakness of the songs ultimately resign this album to a B. Should be ranked higher than it is, though. Half the boring albums on 2010s chart are nowhere near as memo..."  [+]  Reply

"I like this album quite a bit. it's certainly not very standard for the Decemberists. In fact, if you told me that this was an unearthed Colin Meloy synth-pop project from 1985 I wouldn't be all that surprised. "Once In My Life" in fact reminds me of Talk Talk's 1984 hit "It's My Life" (partly be..."  [+]  Reply

Kaleidoscope World 
Compilation
"I actually own the original 8 track 12” release of ‘Kaleidoscope World’ on vinyl and it remained one of my all time favourites for a very long time. It wasn’t until much later on I discovered it was actually a compilation of early of EP’s and singles There’s actually 3 different versions of ‘Kale..."  [+]  Reply

"Very good country/pop/world album. Best 10 songs average is 92,0/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Continuously strong and huge album of 19 songs.

"A really good hip hop record. Some really good tracks on here. But not my favorite Gang Starr album. It feels like they were going for a more hardcore sound than their previous records which makes sense being released in 94. Some of the tracks I find skippable. That being said, Mass Appeal, Blowi..."  [+]  Reply

"Musically 'smoother' and more refined, but equally as experimental and original as their debut 'Silver Apples Of The Moon', Laika create a form of "organic" electronica that is, for example, more authentic sounding than the music produced by one of their contemporaries, the overrated Moby. Overal..."  [+]  Reply
