"This album rocks, and that's what there is to say about that. There are two or three dud tracks: Pity You and Love Without Anger in particular don't have the same energy as the rest of the album, but they've still got a little something to them. Race of Doom comes on a little hard to start side 2..."  [+]  Reply

"Fantastic Electronic & Gritty Krautrock. Many standout tracks and definitely Mount Kimbie's best work. Will be listening to for ages to come. It's already made my top 20 Score: 8.6/10"  Reply

"This is a pretty underrated album, this album grew on me quickly and there are many tracks here I found to be overlooked such as Liar, Chemical, Everyone Everywhere, Young Offender, etc. The singles are great too. I don't know how people aren't paying attention to this album."  Reply

"Relatively overlooked in his catalogue, this is one of Coltrane's most meditative and lyrical records. "Wise One" and "Lonnie's Lament" are two of the most beautiful jazz songs ever recorded. I always feel at peace listening to this album."  Reply

"Six months after it's release this album has finally got me. A lot of listens has now fully revealed the record to me and it is a stunning album. The melodies have evolved over a period of time without even changing, which is incredible, and they've opened themselves up to me to present a brillia..."  [+]  Reply

"Easy to bash because the movie was a coke-inducted disco nightmare (though its fun for its camp value) but the soundtrack is another story. Both ELO and Olivia were in their prime when this album was made and I personally love both halves of the album."  Reply
