"My favorite Tangerine Dream album. I had heard their work before but this was the first album I bought. I remember opening the shrink wrap, placing the album on my turntable, and playing it loud - no one was home and the weather was stormy and raining. It created an atmosphere I cannot forget. Be..."

"I can only imagine how agonising the wait for a new album would've been for Kraftwerk fans (then again, it's been 13 years since "tour de france soundtracks" to the present day), but Kraftwerk certainly met all expectations with this highly energetic album. Filled with both playful and sublime me..." [+] Reply
"As you would expect of a small youth psychedelic folk collective celebrating Christ, The Trees Community is pretty outside the bounds of traditional Christian hymn and praise music. One of the few albums I would describe as capable of transcendence, The Christ Tree works very well in summoning up..." [+] Reply

"I bet these sounds amazed many in 1950. Most of the tricks are repeated so often that they lose their punch. But surely nobody could fail with these songs. Mr Paul is the first guitar genius, probably." Reply

"I got 7 of Sleater-Kinney's albums in one fell swoop a few years ago and this is the one I always come back to. It has a relentless energy that drives it on until just when you're starting to feel a little punch drunk it wraps you up in the beautifully delicate closer "The Swimmer". I was very su..." [+] Reply
"Calexico is one of those bands, that nobody usually knows about (fully undeservedly).
