"This album has grown on me over time, and is now among my favorite albums of all time. One of the most unique voices I've heard, and a very moving album emotionally. "Unmarked Grave" is possibly the saddest song I've ever heard."  Reply

"Cant believe this isnt in the the top 100 of its own year. John Popper (lead singer) has major pipes and is the best harmonica player ever. period. Four is the best album that this great band put out i think it is deserving of a place in the top 100 of the 90s."  Reply

"This is indie rock for the walkmen quite the same as any other walkmen release save for a more cheery outlook. The first three tracks are pretty solid and features my favorite walkmen song in a (long) while, "heartbreaker". In fact, this could be my favorite walkmen album to date!"  Reply

"What an excellent heavy metal/doom metal album! Such an underrated band and they should have been so much bigger even in their own time. They leave that haunting Black Sabbath taste, but with better vocals. Sign of the Wolf and Relentless are the best tracks on here, but all are good."  Reply
