"With 'Boces' (the follow-up to their debut masterpiece, 'Yerself Is Steam') Mercury Rev's Dave Fridmann and Jonathan Donahue have proven to be arguably the most creative artists to have emerged on the scene since Mayo Thompson. Beautiful pastoral sounds of the flute merge with sonic collages, fre..."  [+]  Reply

"Half of this album contain big top 20 hits, "True"(1), "Gold"(2), "Lifeline"(7) and "Communication"(12), yet "Pleasure" is an outstanding track and together with the remainig three tracks, there is no filler, only killer tunes."  Reply

"On this website, Counting Crows album's get ranked progressively worse in chronological order and it completely makes sense. Each album sounds like the last in it's instruments and vocal delivery. This Desert Life has a similar spirit as the debut and is a tighter album than Recovering the Satell..."  [+]  Reply

"There is something just really mesmerizing about this album. It has moments of being pretty straight forward rock. There are also a lot of really emotional and gorgeous atmospheric parts. There is something so gorgeously sincere about Jenn Wasner's vocals. I just feel like I know and understand h..."  [+]  Reply

"Fantastic album! Have no idea why people would rate it so low. Maybe it's because they don't understand the language? Well that's just silly because Italian Prog is some of the best prog ever."  Reply

"Unlikely to be the AnCo album to convince non-fans, and probably won't be a personal favourite for many fans either, but it contains loads of what the band had done well in the past. How much you will enjoy it, probably depends on a few things. One, what you think of that recurring vocal trick th..."  [+]  Reply
