"It is definetly a Krautrock masterpiece. But it really does not deserve to be ranked higher than Ocean. Why? Because it is the most brutal Pink Floyd rip off you could think of. If you don't believe it, listen for your self. The intro to the Album is a 1:1 copy of "Shine on You Crazy Diamond, Par..."  [+]  Reply

"Less an album and more of a short story scored by a garage rock band's take on a spaghetti western soundtrack. A totally wild concept that is more-or-less pulled off successfully. Atmospherically, Eyes Like the Sky is a triumph. If you listen carefully, you can even hear the tumbleweeds rolling b..."  [+]  Reply

""Unearth Unreal” has a few things going for it. Hozier is a technically talented vocalist. The lyrics are well written. The ones in Gaelic are a particular nice touch. As the album unfolds, all these qualities are overwhelmed. Hozier’s performance becomes overwrought with him carrying his vocals ..."  [+]  Reply

"Badfinger's second album for Warner Brothers was recording during two sessions - the first took place at The Caribou Ranch, Colorado in April/May 1974; the second at AIR studios, London in June. Though financial worries had begun to have great influence on the 4 members; they all felt that they h..."  [+]  Reply
