"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
"By Far the best work since You Fail Me and Jane Doe." Reply
"Random Album Title was the album where deadmau5 discovered his signature sound. Every song is endlessly danceable, while each doing something new.

"Best album, best live act - play it loud! A superb collection of songs." Reply
"For me, this has the same problem as the Dr Feelgood album. Two world-beater songs (Wild Side and the title track), and the rest is either forgettable or awful. Nikki himself admits that it's a miracle this record even has two strong songs as he was strung out on heroin during this period and his..." [+] Reply
