"I think the first two tracks on this album perfectly sum the rest up; “Serious” and “Funny”. The best comparison for Scars on Broadway is System of a Down, which figures seeing as 2/5ths of the bands make up come straight from System.

"(As of 2/24/16) A 71/100? Really? This album might not have the energy that Badmotorfinger or Louder Than Love had, and it might not have the hits like Superunknown, but my god, a 71? Very underrated. It's leagues better than Down on the Upside, and you would have never guessed that there was a 1..."  [+]  Reply

"The Go-Betweens became a four piece, adding bassist Robert Vickers to the band. With McLennan moving to guitar, the band sound much fuller than before, and Forster’s material is more conventional, forgoing jerky new wave in favour of more conventional pop, although his material is still more frac..."  [+]  Reply

"One of the greatest improvisational jams ever recorded. Just 3 songs, pretty basic rhythms and harmonies that let Eric Dolphy do some of his better moves. The solos are crazy and the comping by Mal Waldron is something to behold. Ed Blackweel is as solid as ever."  Reply

"What a surprise, people on this hipster-ass site hate this album. This is one of the most important albums of the 2010s; it contains two important things where the 2010s stand for and she did it before it was a thing: the rap/singing multi-tasking, and breaking gender norms. Her rapping style is ..."  [+]  Reply

"Very underappreciated band. This is my favourite album of theirs. They've written some real feel-good rock anthems. This one contains two of the best of them - Seven Days In The Sun and Buck Rogers."  Reply
