"Love this band. All three of their albums are pretty equal. Great mix of synthpop, electronic rock and trip hop. Gets pretty spaced out often and I definitely appreciate that. Not really a "pop" album. Sarah Barthels voice soothes my soul."  Reply

"Brilliant re-edit of a number of Genesis' best songs. Great work. I absolutely like versions of Lamia and Supper's Ready. Steve Hackett is a true talent. Some of his own old songs also appear on this album, the new version of Please Don't Touch really, really delivers."  Reply

"Whether it's good or bad is almost irrelevant(it's bad, by the way), but the main thing is it's NOT Guns'n'roses, it's Axl Rose on the most expensive and long drawn out ego trip ever."  Reply

"This is the first time I've heard of these guys and this is the first album I've heard from this "metal" band. Let me just say that I don't hate this album and there are some killer moments on here - the production is grand and bombastic and is easily the best thing about this album. As for metal..."  [+]  Reply

"Pretty good. May sound monotonous at times though. 'How' is a great song for me. Best tracks: 'New Ways' 'How' and 'Made of Stone' Worst: 'No Care' (good melody but bad lyrics)"  Reply

"Feb20. 'Shit Mirror' is a pretty cool start to the album. It apparently features The Cult's Ian Astbury, but his voice is so hidden in the mix there is no way I would have picked it without reading it was there. 'Ahead of Ourselves' is a little repetitive, but sounds like older NIN with a drum lo..."  [+]  Reply

"I kind of agree with PsychologistHD. This album is far too difficult to listen to, and it's way too harsh for my taste. Thank God that Animal Collective ditched this sound over the course of their career."  Reply

"This is a strangely attractive album with many styles involved. Some songs have even JJ Cale's tone. Her voice is weird, unique, and annoying, choose your pick. I bet many find her voice intriguing., and childish at times and original at times. Well worth a visit this is"  Reply
