"This album incorporates elements of various influences without overwhelming the bands overall musical identity. The following artists come to mind: Neu, Joy Division, Sisters Of Mercy, Ministry, Killing Joke and Suicide. The music is genuinelly unsettling. Key track: Circles." Reply
"Rufus wainwright's fifth album was a slight disappointment after the genius of the, want, LP's. Still, it is Wainwright, so all is not lost. There are still superb songs, the best being, going to a town, between my legs, and the stunning, slideshow. Tiergarten, is nice, nobody's off the hook, is ..." [+] Reply
"This is truely the BEST DRUM AND BASS ALBUM EVER! no other has been so inspiring and innovative as this one whilst staying true to the genre. Absolutely Beautiful." Reply
"Acid Bath were an outfit from the swamps of Louisiana, likely the only place where music of this ilk could be spawned. The sludge metal group only produced two studio albums with a lifespan abridged by the sudden death of bassist Audie Pitre. The introduction to their brief discography is nothing..." [+] Reply

"Well this album is criminally underrated (or more accurately, probably overlooked). Maybe I'm biased because it's the best album by my favorite band. I used to think Bloodletting was their best album, but I was wrong. Every track here is gold. The only "weakness", if you want to call it that, is ..." [+] Reply
"Yet another Iggy record I've always loved. While the Stones and Bowie during that time were struggling to write decent songs, Iggy was still very creative, as shown with gems like Jealousy or F**kin alone. The album rocks, despite being a bit too long." Reply

"Falco does a very pleasing cover of Dylan's 'It's All Over Now, Baby Blue'" Reply
"Very underrated. The best so-called "post-grunge" album, because it's really a metal album with a bit of blues and rock. Its lyrics are inspirational. Outstanding performance by vocalist Myles Kennedy is highlight of the ablum- maybe one of the best ever!" Reply
