"Such a great album. Overshadowed by the big sellers but this is seriously good and needs checking out by anyone who likes Steve Miller. Full of wonderful performances and songwriting"  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

"A much more polished effort than their first release. With this record, The Fugs push music forward into a space that few if any could have seen coming. The first nine songs sound like fully flushed-out music with decent vocals, good instrumentation (particularly the electric guitars) and great s..."  [+]  Reply

"The 3rd Cake album was not quite as delicious as the first two slices, but I could still go for several more helpings. Lots of good songs, my favorites are "Satan is My Motor," "Never There," "Sheep Go To Heaven" and "Walk on By.""  Reply

"After two heavily produced albums in which they might have reminded listeners of the Sundays produced by The Cocteau Twins,(not such a bad thing,) they switched producers, stripped away layers of sound, and discovered that less is more. With the introspective songwriting of lead singer Karen Peri..."  [+]  Reply

"I love this band's early stuff. This is along with Vengeance one of their two best albums. Title track No Rest is a storming anthem and one of my favourite all time tracks."  Reply

"One of the most beautifull latin american rock album. García expands his repertoire towards progressive rock and tradicional music call tango; specialy in "cuando ya me empiece a quedar solo".

"A startling return to form and their best LP at that point for 17 years, I cannot find any filler here, even the cover version Loop 41 which has to be the weakest track on offer has a certain charm to it. Theme From Sparta, Last Commands Of Xyralothep and Mountain Energei are all up there with th..."  [+]  Reply
