"I'm surprised that no one has yet commented on this album. It is one of their better efforts and no, I don't think the overplayed hit Black Water was the best song. Pursuit on 53rd St., Eyes of Silver, and Another Park are all better songs. This band was so much better before Michael McDonald bec..." [+] Reply
"I really hope this climbs the 2015 rankings, it deserves to be much higher than 39th. This is actually my first exposure to The Mountain Goats, and I'm now working through their back catalogue. Seems to be full of gems I wish I'd found a lot sooner." Reply

"Is this Experimental Pop? Is it Indie Folk? Is it Alternative Folk Rock? It's hard to place this album, but it was a serene and calming listen that worked perfectly for a morning walk along the river." Reply
"Monch is one of the greatest MC's of all-time, and this (his first solo effort) is stunning. His most fun album. His array of flows is ridiculous, and the beats are sweet. Good luck finding it pon CD doe." Reply
"Masterpiece. Beautiful piece of art." Reply
"Awesome! The right mix of hardcore, excellent riffage, and some avant-garde tendencies. Avant-Punk done right 85/100 (Very Good)" Reply

"Haha, this was my first Prince album. I guess that's maybe a little pathetic, but come on, I was a kid, I didn't give a fuck about Prince. I did like Batman though, that is the most nostalgic movie ever for me. This was and still is a good soundtrack, it's not one of his best albums but it's good..." [+] Reply

"This is a stripped-down, acoustic album with complete dedication to simplistic folk-tunes and some acoustic rock elements. The lyrics, even if you are not a native speaker, are the highlight. But up front is Shakira's beautiful voice. In my opinion, her voice peaked on this album and has never so..." [+] Reply

"A pretty solid album, though many of the songs follow the same exact formula and sound pretty much the same, apart from the riffs and maybe a few add ons between songs.
