"Dec20. I just love the sound of these guys. The bridge between Nirvana and 2000s emo, with a good bit of punk thrown in. Not sure how such bleak lyrics and sounds can make me feel so good. They just express things so directly. If wallowing in mysery over 2020 or suffering from some anxiety, then ..."  [+]  Reply

"Removed from Green's blues roots, Danny Kirwan delivers the group with three stunning compositions (Woman of a Thousand Years, Sands of Time & Sometimes). Moving towards Pop/Rock, it is worth listening to it once you approach it with no expectations of past greatness."  Reply

"First Ben Folds album I owned (actually had a friend burn me copy- remember burning CDs?). Anyway, this was a fun but poignant album about relationships, stray observations of stardom, and experiences in Japan. Probably not his best work, but still enjoyable! Best Tracks: Cologne, You Don't Know ..."  [+]  Reply

"This was the album that really consolidated Los Lobos' name as a modern rock band that was on level with contemporary trends, wrote great songs and who played their instruments sang their songs to pure delight. The album is once again produced by T-Bone Burnett. This time the group decided, with ..."  [+]  Reply

"This the first T.Rex album is full of folksy instruments and weird vicals. John Peel introduced Marc Bolan to an unsuspecting British audience in 1967/8 and Bolan never looked back. His songs changed over the following 10 years but that unique voice remained. Electric warrior is by far the best o..."  [+]  Reply

"“Your feedback for We Had Good Times Together, Don't Forget That” feels more confident in its storytelling. Previous works by Sewerslvt relied on directed samples and shorter songs to convey the trademark sadness. “Don't Forget That” generates the melancholy through long atmospheric passages. Fad..."  [+]  Reply

"Little known, highly influential. This is one album that is regularly quoted by the artists listed on lists. If the musicians that are on the lists would create their own lists, this album would regularly be found in the Top 10s. How come this album not gets picked by amateurs? It is likely a pro..."  [+]  Reply
