"Coming eight years after bridges to Babylon, a bigger bang is one of the stones strongest albums for years, although a little too long again. It's got some brilliant cuts in streets of love, biggest mistake and laugh, I nearly died. The best track has to be the funky, rain fall down, one of the b..."  [+]  Reply

"I absolutley loved the singles to this album and I think that every track here has its merits, but when put together as an album, I can't help but feel there is a lack in variety. I like the distorted, lofi sounds, but I wish there were significantly more quiet moments to give the album some chan..."  [+]  Reply

"the right kind of experimental. Each song sounds like it's honestly trying to find a new sound for hip hop. A sound for hip hop that you would probably find on an UFO, but no one else is trying what they're trying and it doesn't sound shitty. Like what Odd Future or Death Grips try to do, but bet..."  [+]  Reply

"Pin ups, is David Bowie's covers album. Similar to Bryan Ferry's, these foolish things, but where as that was pop as well as rock, pin ups, is set in the late sixties rock scene. Featuring versions of The Who, The Kinks, Pink Floyd, and, The pretty things, it's all enjoyable, with the cover of Th..."  [+]  Reply

"Probably my least favorite Nightwish album - I feel it was a slight step back from Oceanborn. It's still good, though. Most of the songs are in that 80-85 "good" range, but very few (Wishmaster, Dead Boy's Poem) take it to the next level. Crownless is kind of annoying and comes across as mediocre..."  [+]  Reply
