"Crazy to think that this concept came to be from 4chan, after asking users for two genres that might make an interesting blend.. SO GLAD this happened to be a suggestion (black metal / negro music), because it is fantastic. Very Algiers-like, but on the heavier side or course. Would definitely re..."  [+]  Reply

"Heavy rock bands usually do decent live albums and this is no exception. I also like Rush's predictability in the early days (lost now) of 4 studios, then double live album. This is a great summary of their early stuff - Bastille Day, By-Tor and 2112 get a good airing."  Reply

"When I first heard this album, I was impressed with all the arrangements. Swirling distorted guitars interweaving over "Beachboys" inspired harmonies.

"Another fine Rod Stewart record. Gasoline alley, is not quite as consistent or as good as, every picture, but it features some fine songs. Only a hobo, cut across shorty and the title track are the pick of the bunch. Earthy, you can almost smell the smoke from the chimneys. Good stuff."  Reply

"A really beautiful album beginning to end. A powerful return for The Chicks, and Jack Antonoff did a great job producing it. Especially love March March and Young Man."  Reply
