"It seems kooky to include a greatest hits in your top records. But this is the 1st record I recall hearing. I was 3. I put my ear right close the speakers. I remember the woofers pounding. The depth of sound was overwhelming. It opened me up to a life long love of music."  Reply

"Nice indie folk album. Similar to the Velvet Underground albums after Cale left. I like it, but I don´t think it´s so much underrated: It´s just good but not overwhelming, the songs are not strong enough."  Reply

"After a seventeen-year hiatus between albums, Mazzy Star came back and made an album that no one could reasonably have expected to be this good. It isn't exactly a major step forward artistically, but it's pretty amazing that they were able to pick up pretty much where they left off with Among My..."  [+]  Reply

"A million leagues better than the initial singles would've led me to believe, Sucker is actually a lot of fun, as some very clever touches and the overall nineties vibe (particulary the power-pop, mallpunk and even some distant R&B and Riot Grrl influences) are quite bewitching, even if overall i..."  [+]  Reply

"Without purpose, this has become one of my favorite bowie albums. Bowie albums take up about 20 spaces in the top 5000. This is at the bottom for bowie by bea, I really wonder about the credibility of this site when so many of his albums are rated higher than this."  Reply
