"I searched online for bands similar to The Shins, and I feel like I've stumbled on something special. I've listened to two of their albums so far and it feels like I've discovered a buried treasure. Why have I never listened to them before? The name was vaguely familiar, most likely because I've ..." [+] Reply

"This album is about 50/50. The good cuts are really good, the others laughably awful. I think Mr. Moraz needed a producer that knew how to say the word NO on this record." Reply
"This is amazing. Salsa dura at its best. Juana Peña is a masterpiece for sure." Reply

"All-Music generally gives reasonably positive reviews for most albums they cover however this album received a scathing write up claiming it was a pale imitation of TISM, They Might Be Giants and Prince among other things. Yeah I get it there are some juvenile sentiments sprinkled among the track..." [+] Reply

"In the 60’s it wasn’t uncommon for artists to release 2 albums of new material in the same year with The Beatles (twice !) , Dylan and The Doors all achieving this feat. Whilst it is less common these days it still happens with artists such as King Gizzard and Guided By Voices but the the differe..." [+] Reply

"This is Mexican Ska at its best. It contains a themed set of songs about living in the biggest Latinamerican city; the album celebrates the idea of life as a carnival, and as a group of minstrels would do they sing tales of urban heroes from the slums and traditional neighborhoods -- called 'veci..."

"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

"I almost think I like this album as much as Fire of Love. Hard to call because they are pretty different, but this album is amazing. Nearly every song is a favorite. But damn, Fire of Love is a tough one to top." Reply
