"I cannot believe I am the first to add this album. I hope that I have introduced this great album to people that otherwise wouldn't have heard it. It doesn't have all original material, but what it has is amazing: Would by Alice in Chains, Drown by the Smashing Pumpkins, State of Love and Trust B..."  [+]  Reply

"I’m struggling to understand why this album was so poorly received, sure it’s no “I’m Wide Awake” and there a couple of duds in the track list but it’s still a very strong work. Songs like Dance and Sing, Mariana Trench, Pan and Broom, Persona Non Grata, Tilt-a-Whirl, and To Death's Heart rank as..."  [+]  Reply

"The girl talk albums, like 2006's night ripper, are difficult to critique. The guy just uses a computer and music samples from a wide array of pop to create new song (mixes). (i guess there are a few drum fills.) Then there's the choice of samples, here theres a bunch of 90s/00s hip hop with 70s/..."  [+]  Reply

"This album really takes you on a ride right from the start and really shocked me when I first heard it. The sound is unconventional and quite unique which is mainly down to the vocal by Jordaan Mason. His harsh and raw voice fits the musical styling perfectly and when you combine that with the un..."  [+]  Reply

"I'm surprised that no one has yet commented on this album. It is one of their better efforts and no, I don't think the overplayed hit Black Water was the best song. Pursuit on 53rd St., Eyes of Silver, and Another Park are all better songs. This band was so much better before Michael McDonald bec..."  [+]  Reply
