"Hard hitting, scene forming, angst spewing. All qualities needed for an album to be considered a pop-punk masterpiece. This album is all those things, you do the math." Reply

"Bill Nelson was eminent as songwriter, vocalist and guitarist. A very underrated group and this album has good melodies, surprising breaks and is an interesting listen all through! Modern music , the album that followed it is almost equally good!" Reply
"As usual, Saint Etienne's pop is very well produced and structured, and "Good Humor" is no exception to this. This record is filled to the brim with very good tracks with a more lounge-y influence and less alternative dance, but if there's a flaw, it's that nothing here is truly exceptional. They..."

"A masterpiece. Containing the best songs Fields of the Nephilim ever recorded, it remains their best work to this day." Reply
"Still one of Faith no more's best albums. Recorded with Chuck Moseley on vocals, it's a superb blend of arty rock, metal and indie, it's a great listen. We care a lot, is one of FMN's greatest songs, and there are plenty of other good songs here in, anne's song, faster disco, and, Chinese arithme..." [+] Reply
"R&B album of the year at the 2006 Grammys" Reply

"The only album that has ever made me cry only for the themes it deals with." Reply

"Del tha Funkee Homosapien was doing underground hip hop before underground hip hop even existed. While Del is from the west coast, don't confuse his sound with other west coast hip hop. There are two things that separate him. First, while it's true that Del's cousin Ice Cube and DJ Pooh produced ..." [+] Reply

"I’d agree with other comments. The songs don’t benefit from this format and it’s all a bit blah. I saw her play live with a band at the start of her career. It was a day festival with Bob Dylan and The Who as the headline acts. Never heard of her until then but remember thinking that she had a fu..." [+] Reply
