"I just heard the most interesting track from the best of RR kirk titled " Variations on a theme from Hindemith"..really liked it, but the album is not on this website yet, so this was the only place that I could comment. Reminded me a little of "Blues on Bach" by the Modern Jazz Quartet, but of c..."  [+]  Reply

"Overall OK but underwhelming. I listened to this album a lot in 2011-2012 years and listening back now in 2019, I’m less impressed. Standouts for me include a signature Oberst sad sad song “Ladder Song”, the Rastafarian-influenced “One for You, One for Me”, and “Jejune Stars” which the band once ..."  [+]  Reply

"Eurythmics debut was not released in the U.S. early in their career. This is an excellent post punk album which has a dreamy and psychedelic feel but with an edge to it. I think this would surprise a lot of people and this certainly deserves to be discovered."  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..."  [+]  Reply

"This is a slighty disappointing beach boys album. It's so short of material that it features a pathetic bit of studio banter between Brian Wilson and Mike Love, and a completely pointless drum solo from Dennis. But let's not get too down, this record also features the brilliant, fun,fun,fun, don'..."  [+]  Reply

"This album, in my opinion, is flawless. Many fans of Devo claim this is when they began to go downhill. They are dead wrong. Oh, No! is a synth pop classic, with catchy songs, fun lyrics and great musicianship. If you are a fan of synth pop, get this album. If you want to start getting Devo album..."  [+]  Reply

"Sam Beam builds upon the funkiness of "Kiss Each Other Clean" and ups the ante. The simplicity and solitude of his folky "creek drank the cradle" has given way over time to more instrumentation, more production and more uplifting vocal confidence, all in full display here from opening track "caug..."  [+]  Reply
