"Despite what sp4cetiger says, there are indeed ways around the Laws of Thermodynamics. Just ask Seefeel who developed their own perpetual motion machine with Quique. Which makes it the album to beat for post-midnight, no one else on the highway, road tripping music when you need to sleep NOW but ..." [+] Reply
"A surprising masterpiece. The most consistent and meaningful album of 2015 for me. Hypnotic minimalism, an ambient soundtrack on live instruments, beautiful and somehow sinister." Reply

"A fantastic display of vocal talents by Sarah Vaughan that really separates her from the crowd as an extremely unique vocalist. The control she has over her voice is mesmerising and it shines on every single track on this album. She really drags you into this nightclub feel with her forcing you i..." [+] Reply

"Although the "Live From The Dentist Office" released in 2015 did not have much impact in the hip-hop environment, the trio Injury Reserve from Arizona has proven that it is currently one of the most interesting crew of the independent rap scene. Their second LP, "Floss", is one of the strongest a..." [+] Reply
"Really interesting and entertaining. I like how chaotic the first half of the album is especially during "Trail of the Smiling Sphinx". I don't know how some of the sounds are made but they contribute to a hellishness that I found very compelling. There is something that sounds like a pig in the ..." [+] Reply

"A really fantastic recording and performance. I'd say this outdoes the studio recording except for Another Brick in the Wall Part II, Comfortably Numb, and The Trial (all of which benefit from more polished studio work on the normal versions). Everything else just totally smokes the studio versio..." [+] Reply

"“The Age of Pleasure” is a collapse into hedonism. The writing turns a sensual utopia into an inebriated haze. The lyrics rarely move beyond the initial statement of pleasure. The instrumentals are built on limp reggae. The horns are particularly flat, adding little despite their prominent role. ..." [+] Reply
"The best sound collage of all time. A relatively modern piece of musique concrète that stretches your imagination of what you consider to be music. Against all odds, this record is extremely enjoyable and beautiful in its own highly eclectic way. I honestly don't care about any possible political..." [+] Reply
"When you get a good few listens of these tunes, let them settle with you, see some of them played live a few times, you realise you still love the fanclub as much as you always have. Don't ever stop guys." Reply
