"Great album. Nothing's shocking, still sounds utterly unique today. It's funky, punky, and atmospheric. It's cinematic and intimate all at the same time. Personally, I just prefer follow up, ritual de lo habitual, but this is still a superb record in it's own right. This is the kind of record tha..." [+] Reply

"A chore to listen to in its entirety but what an original debut! Muse might possibly have been the most interesting act to follow since Radiohead's "OK, Computer" (1995). As a mediocre three-chord-guitarist, I humbly take off my imaginary hat to pay respect to Matthew Bellamy's obvious guitar vir..." [+] Reply

"I love this album, hated it at first but as each song unravelled in my mind I began to love it. Firmly my favourite Monkeys album now." Reply

"This album contains a lot of my favorite DCFC songs: Marching Bands Of Manhattan Soul Meets Body Summer Skin Different Names For The Same Thing What Sarah Said Brothers On A Hotel Bed All those hits force me to rate this album high. However, I don't think it is their more cohesive album. Narrow S..." [+] Reply

"There aren't too many standout tracks but that's really the only problem I can find with this album. It consistently sounds great and it has a very solid direction and the overall sound is very interesting, influential, and ahead of it's time." Reply

"After Psychocandy created some controversy regarding the sound of TJAMC, Darklands counterbalances and shows the critics and the public that the band was also capable of writing strikingly beautiful songs without necessarily recurring to the "Noise Rock" aesthetic." Reply

"This was the most accessible Nick Cave album to date when it was released in 1990. It's still a dark record, but the music is now approaching a beauty you certainly wouldn't have expected a few years before. Opener, foi na cruz, is lovely, as is, the weeping song. The most beautiful track though ..." [+] Reply

"One of the greatest hard rock albums ever!! For those that like hard rock, metal, or punk...you should listen to this album, rock out, and make it part of your collection. Lemmy is an anomaly (a true rock legend)...he's still lives the fast life and plays incredibly loud, blistering, fast hard ro..." [+] Reply

"I don't know if two albums were really necessary for this release, but it's still a good debut for James Murphy's popular project. I love his faux Beatles tune on track five, Daft Punk... is a classic hit, and Tribulations is an outstanding dance smash. It's just too much for me by the end. It's ..." [+] Reply
