"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.

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 by. Musically, the album is less engaging; the songs being constructed more as riff-based themes rather than proper arrangements serves the concept better than the overall listening experience. It's a neat experiment that's definitely worth listening to, but inessential beyond demonstrating to your nonplussed friends how effin' WEIRD King Gizzy can get sometimes."[+]Reply
"This is as good as an alternative country album can be. A haunting voice leads one of the best debuts from 2019 and shows potential to be one of the 2020's defining artists.

A haunting voice leads one of the best debuts from 2019 and shows potential to be one of the 2020's defining artists. The whole album is incredible but Roses Are Falling, Turn To Hate and Winds Change would be the standouts with Turn To Hate on a shortlist of best songs of the year.
This is also a must listen while playing Red Dead Redemption. "[+]Reply
"This wasn't nearly as bad as I had hoped it would be. In fact, there's a few songs I actually liked. I actually repeated Iced Honey twice and caught my head bouncing around a bit. But one question still lingers. Between this album and Tyler The Creator's Goblin, why is everyone suddenly proclaimi...""This wasn't nearly as bad as I had hoped it would be. In fact, there's a few songs I actually liked. I actually repeated Iced Honey twice and caught my head bouncing around a bit. But one question still lingers. Between this album and Tyler The Creator's Goblin, why is everyone suddenly proclaiming themselves to be a table? Weird.

"'Everything Changes' continues the successful blend of alternative rock and Celtic folk-pop in Del Amitri's music. The follow-up to 'Waking Hours' is nearly as good, even if the lack of really strong singles drags it down a bit.

The follow-up to 'Waking Hours' is nearly as good, even if the lack of really strong singles drags it down a bit. The sound on this LP is fuller and closer to adult contemporary rock than on 'Waking Hours'.
While the fuller, more guitar- and percussion-heavy sound is a welcome step forward, the record suffers from a lack of variety. This is mostly a very typical 90s guitar pop-rock of the happier kind. With booming choruses, Del Amitri seeks to satisfy those who are looking for majestic rock music for long trips by car. But that's really all there is to it. The music is catchy and there are some great songs in there, but the elegant touch from 'Waking Hours' is sadly missing. "[+]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 had to put everything they had into these recordings. And this really shows on the album - another masterpiece - one of the really great albums of the seventies. It has been called "The Sergent Pepper of the 1970's"; personally I feel that it has more in common with "Abbey Road".
Badfinger had grown into an albums-band, and this album really works as a whole, especially the original side 2 which features two very succesful medleys. The album opens with Pete's very powerful "Just A Chance" and with Mike's light and catchy "You're So Fine" song by Joey and Pete - once again Mike proves himself as a competent songwriter. Joey's "Got To Get Out Of Here" really shows how Joey felt about about the music business and being in the band ( as we know he left shortly after the album's release) a very strong song by Joey. "Know One Knows" is another powerful melodic rocker by Pete - I love the Japanese voice that meddles with leadguitar part. The first side closes with another grand production which characterizes most of the album; Pete's Dennis written to his step-son. Besides the two medleys side two features Tom Evans' "King Of The Load" ( one of my favourite Tom Evans songs) and Joey's quiet Love Time. No singles were released from the album; this was a period when hit-singles didn't matter much to the progressive/ambitious bands. "Just a Chance" or "Know One Knows" might have been able to make the charts with the right promotion, though none of them have immediate hit-potential.
My favourites: Just a Chance, Know One Knows, Dennis, King Of The Load and Meanwhile Back at the Ranch"[+]Reply
"In the '90s I might've given it an 8/10 with a healthy dose of shame, but after having experienced the '00s, I have no doubt this ripple caused a tidal wave.

The pop dilutes the country into something that is digestible for non-American listeners too, but that's not to say I like it despite the country influences; rather, the combination seems to create something new. It's a good example of how mixing genres should go: unnoticed."[+]Reply
"Boy does this stand up well despite its age. "A Place In the Sun" is my favorite cover ever. I spent an hour or so once, forget why, trying to decide if there was any album likely to be in both my, and Daryl Hall's collections. I decided this was the best bet."Reply

The record feels very bare and not a lot really happens on most of the songs. There is only a couple of tracks that I would pick out and listen to again after this record and most of the other ones are pretty pointless. It is just quite a boring release and it is very hard to stay focused on the album. It isn't because it is just him and a guitar either because that has been done before on a record to a very interesting and entertaining degree but on here it just doesn't click for me. However, the way he plays guitar is very impressive as you can tell he has a very soft and smooth approach to playing his music. Overall, an influential album doesn't always mean it is good and I think this is one of those records as there is no reason to really revisit this release for me. "[+]Reply
