"Mmmh. It's a pretty good album, I don't deny it. It's nothing to be really excited about, though. Just nice rock 'n' roll in The Animals' style. What is really interesting here is to discover Morrison's early style, which has nothing to do with his much more soulful solo career. His voice is clos..."  [+]  Reply

"I don't think it is appropriate here to call DCD "Gothic" or “Gothic Rock”. The music on the first album is not really indebted to "Gothic", unless you think the electric guitar would have been inspired a bit too much by the work of The Cure and the likes. The unique voice and singing of L. Gerra..."  [+]  Reply

"Impressive for what they were at the time, and a big step up from their debut album, in my opinion. Side note, the vocal work on this album is the pure definition of talent."  Reply

"Enjoyable alternative hip-hop/funky style of their own. Liked this enough to buy three more of their cd's, all in a similar vein. Strong start that unfortunately tails off at the end but enough here to listen to on a fairly regular basis."  Reply

""Secret Samadhi" has a heavy spiritual and abstract quality to it. "throwing copper" had angst and anger and claws. Samadhi brings shiva, brahma and vishnu along in his ruminations, Americanized of course. It's still alternative rock. The first song i heard (in live form) was "freaks". ("Will you..."  [+]  Reply

"The first Album I ever owned. Received as a Christmas present at the age of 11. Loved it then and love it now. Hadn’t listened it for man years and recently revisited it. In my opinion Madness best ? just ahead of One Step Beyond. Other than Solid Gone I love most of the songs on here. Baggy Trou..."  [+]  Reply

"The best album of Heroes del Silencio. Best produced would be Senderos de Traicion, but EEDV is a heavier album plenty of extraordinary songs, almost any of them. El Camino del Exceso is its best song but nuestros hombres, flor de loto, bendecida, los placeres de la pobrez, la herida,...all are a..."  [+]  Reply

Compilation
"This is a double album which is a compilation but not a "best of" per se because it is a combination of great songs, outtakes, live cuts and singles not available on LP so far. As a result it makes for a very strong album. This ranks as a Tull essential "to have" album even though it has some mat..."  [+]  Reply
