"This is a great record. If you enjoyed The Pearl, give this record a listen. A very relaxing record and feels more engaging compared to the bit I have heard in Wave Notion. Not to say that was bad. But to me this was better. Kinda reminded a bit of Sim City back in 1991."  Reply

"A brilliant debut album from Judie Tzuke and still her best. The title track & Stay With Me 'Till Dawn along with the beautiful For You are the stand out tracks. All the songs were written by Judie & Mike Paxman her musical collaborator. Paul Buckmaster was responsible for the string arrangements..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is underrated. It's crime being that it's sandwiched between Priest's two best albums: British Steel and Screaming For Vengeance. 'Solar Angels', 'Desert Plains', 'Heading Out To The Highway' are all strong songs. Halford's vocals are very entertaining on songs like 'Don't Go' and 'You..."  [+]  Reply

"An underrated Beth Orton. It is a really good record and deserves a little bit more attention. Not as great as, trailer park, or, central reservation, but a very good album."  Reply

"A little rough around the edges, but there are lots of interesting ideas, most of which are well executed. This album is quite the ride and never gets boring. Keem is definentely one of the most interesting and creative young up and coming hip hop artists. I'm very excited to see what he does on ..."  [+]  Reply
