"Sumo is an icon of argentine rock. This album contains a lot of classics, such as "Rubia Tarada", "Reggae de Paz y Amor" and my favourite, "Mejor No Hablar de Ciertas Cosas" (the influence of Joy Division is clear here and in "Divididos por la Felicidad")."  Reply

"A couple years later and I certainly have changed my opinion from that previously commented. There are still a few bangers as previously listed, but the rest of the album although thoughful and express meaningful commentary, they're just not that powerful enough both lyrically & musically. None o..."  [+]  Reply

"I understand if you find Noah, boring and uninteresting, but this album just makes me happy happy! This album tells us an amazing love story, which it doesn't exactly has a happy ending, its just music to relate to"  Reply

"Among bands that revolutionized rock and roll, (e.g. The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, The Ramones, Nirvana,) Van Halen often gets short shrift. That said, "OU812" (1988, US #1) - although released under the name "Van Halen" - is not the same band that revolutionized rock in 1978. With original vocalist..."  [+]  Reply

""Evolution" was the first of two Hollies albums released in 1967. The band did a lot of experimenting in those years, both in songwriting and arrangements. Some of it worked, some of it didn't. "Butterfly" is often hailed as their finest and most consistent, whereas "Evolution" suffers from being..."  [+]  Reply

"This is exactly what Christian rock needs to be. I tend to get sick of the constant feel-good Christian rock that gets played on the radio. How family-friendly it has to be. It’s like Christian rock has to never show struggle or wavering faith. Everything is happy all the time. Well Tenth Avenue ..."  [+]  Reply

"Well, I for one haven’t forgotten the Pixies and never will and am surprisingly digging this album which is easily their best suit of originals since ‘Trompe le Monde’ waaaaay back in 1991. Mind you, the bar had been set extremely low since that release with a trio of stinkers beginning with ‘Ind..."  [+]  Reply

"Very good alternative rock/punk rock/post-hardcore/pop punk album. Best 10 songs average is 88,8/100 and the album can get very good 90/100. Powerful punk rock slightly similar to Green Day. Best songs are "Devil in a midnight mass", "Red flag", "This suffering", "Fallen leaves" and "Surrender" a..."  [+]  Reply
