"Nothing new in sound or style but a highly enjoyable fun time up tempo rock n roll album." 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

""Below the Salt" was Steeleye Span's fourth album, but probably the first where the sound that gave the band their greatest successes is predominant. Producer of the first albums Sandy Robertson has been replaced by Jerry Boys, and the two founder-members Ashley Hutchings, Martin Carthy are repla..." [+] 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

"Very disappointing album by Killer Mike, it was overproduced and preachy. High moment was Andre's verse" Reply
"This is my favourite album of all time. I was lucky enough to get hold of a mint copy to replace my very worn original copy, only available, if at all, on vinyl I believe. This takes me back to my late teens, very eighties, very slick in production at a time when reverb was added to everything, b..." [+] Reply
"What do you get if you cross Tool with Drive By Truckers and Defheaven ? Why you’d have All Them Witches and this incredible album A.T. W have somehow managed to pull off something truely unique with a sound that is really difficult to completely pinpoint and that’s what makes this entire album a..." [+] Reply

"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
"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
"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
