"A very obscure album for McCartney standards. Overall is good with some good tracks and some less interesting ones. I can't help to think that it would be really good if the tracklist was cut from 16 to 10 or 11 tracks. Albums got really long in the cd era and I don't think that was a good thing ..." [+] Reply
"Compare this to Hotter than July. Which is better? July. But they aren't much different. This has great vibes throughout, not a bad/unlistenable song. You can absolutely listen to this as an album.

"Shortlisted for album of the year at the 2001 Mercury Music Prize. The winner was Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea by PJ Harvey" Reply

"One of the better black metal records I've tried to endure. I actually enjoy this one quite a bit. Bathory is one of the best names in the black metal game, if you're going off of my opinion. Enter the Eternal Fire, Call from the Grave, and Massacre are all really good songs, the rest aren't very..." [+] Reply
