"Prior to listening to this I had heard bad things about Scorpions. Things like they were cheesy, adult rock and could potentially kill you. This was the first album I listened to by these and from the moment Dark Lady had finished playing I knew all such things weren't true. Well... maybe they ar..."  [+]  Reply

"A great example of how Johnny Cash could play just about anything and make it his own. My Grandfather's Clock and Five Feet High and Rising are my favourite tracks here."  Reply

"Love And Rockets A departure from densely sonic and chugging previous album 'Express.' Some songs have their expected rock sound, but mostly this is an acoustic based effort. Love and Rockets do a great job of combining acoustic music with experimental sounds. The lyrics are deep and full of inge..."  [+]  Reply

""When you need someone to be there for you, I won't be one who will help you out" cries a heart-broken Ryan Adams on Pneumonia's twangy opener, "The ballad of Carol Lynne". Whiskeytown was an alt-country band and, sonically, this album is heavier on the "alt" than any of their previous efforts (T..."  [+]  Reply

"Overlong and riddled with meta references and snarky nudge-nudge lines that could only come from a young songwriter, it's actually a pretty decent album, mainly cause the songcraft is overall catchy enough but not quite as conservatively cliqued as most of the endless onslaught of emo albums in t..."  [+]  Reply

"“Skyscraper,” (1988, US #6) David Lee Roth’s 2nd post-Van Halen solo LP, features impressionistic, sonic tapestries that sound utterly dissimilar to the aggressive “Eat ‘em and Smile,” (1986, US #4) despite being recorded with the same eclectic, all-star band.
