"The greatest EP. Ever. Pure beauty. the 5 songs on here are an incredible, flowing tour-De-force of tenderest beauty. It is filled with the most achingly gorgeous melodies and guitar playing and some of the greatest lyrics I've ever heard. The vocals are so true, and plain and perfect throughout...." [+] Reply

"Once again, Paul Simon shows that he is almost peerless as an artist. As he ages, he has not stopped making music that challenges him and his audience. He continues to be creative rather than fall back on tried and true formulas to just keep busy or make money. Who else has put out albums in thei..." [+] Reply

"Speedy Ortiz rock. Yeah it is a bit like Pavement with Liz Phair's vocals, but who wouldn't love that? Grimy ass chords with some nice pop hooks are hard to turn away from." Reply

"It's all about the repetitive drone in each song, alongside dark lyricism. The Black Angels get away with it, and they do it well on Passover. The driving guitar riffs and rhythm; they're the AC/DC of Indie and Psych Rock. They've got a few good albums, but Passover is the best." Reply

"Skrillex might be the most innovative musician in the business - or at least with any chart presence. You have to argue that "it's not music, it's an air conditioner" (as nitro2k11 put it) is a unique sound; I would argue that there is definite melody guiding all the grinding, crunching. and grow..."

"Angel Delight was Fairport's follow-up to their master-piece "Full House". Guitarist and songwiter Richard Thompson had left the band before the recordings for the album, but some songs had been written and rehearsed before he left. Thompson is co-writer on two songs and though his personal vocal..." [+] Reply
"A wacky and wonderful collection of music. It's got songs that sound like Pink Floyd and King Crimson had a lovechild, 90s pop rock, 80s post punk a la Joy Division, something resembling lo-fi KISS, and some art rock that reminds me of Deerhoof before Deerhoof was a thing. Inexplicably, all of it..." [+] Reply
