"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
"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.

"Just when you think Masterpiece Theatre would be the crowning achievement of Mariana's Trench's career, out came Ever After. Every song is a highlight. No joke.

"Often overlooked classic NWOBHM album. So pleased to have picked up this re-issue on spatter vinyl, to marry with their debut, also on spatter vinyl, just need Denim and Leather now to complete the trio. Title track is a banger, Dallas 1pm a personal favourite, altogether great metal album." Reply

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

"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
