"Julia Holter's had quite a strange career. After slowly working towards a more accessible sound and building mainstream critical approval, culminating in 2015's Have You In My Wilderness, she followed this up with the sprawling and uncompromising (and also totally brilliant) Aviary 3 years later...."

"Fantastic debut album from a little known Russian band. So glad I found this band's music. 'Ship' is a highlight - great track!" Reply

"There isn't anybody in hip-hop (or any other genre, for that matter) who puts words together like Roc Marciano. And the production is surprisingly experimental - I don't remember a hip-hop album on which the drums were less prominent than they are here. Anyone who dismisses Roc Marciano as a Mobb..." [+] Reply
"Really off the wall but very funny, the musically backing is inconsistent however." Reply
"This one has received a lot of criticism for being an uninspired affair and the band was said to have run out of steam. That is also how I remembered the album, but after returning to it I realized that this is a hell of a lot better than it's reputation. Even though it tends to get a tad formula..." [+] Reply

"Hard pick between this and 'Nightclubbing' but this one just gets the nod for favoritism from me. Reason being I feel this has less tracks that I'd put in the filler category and doesn't just ride on the back of a couple of killer popular songs." Reply

"A lot of Yes fans give this album a hard time. I think the main reason is that it was a big change in direction for the band who at the time were striving to respond to new tastes bought about by the punk / new wave movement by adopting a less reverent and more spontaneous approach. Gone was the ..." [+] Reply
"4.25 out of 5. This Dinosaur Jr album as a fairly more alternative feel to it. The band is know for their almost whiny vocals and dirty guitar riffs but this record has less of this and sweeter of overall tones, or at least in Dinosaur Jr standards. Love is..., Left / right, lost all day and be a..." [+] Reply
"The Lovin' Spoonful consistently churns out catchy tunes, blending influences of rock, pop and folk in a fairly cohesive way. The title track is the album's highlight, but there are a fair amount of other great tracks to speak of including 'My Gal', 'Fishin Blues' and 'Did You Ever Have to Make U..." [+] Reply
