"One of their best albums! The combination of the the acid house and dance music in Ibiza with the signature New Order sound equals something magical. Favorites are well, the whole album! Probably the most cohesive album from them" Reply

"I respectfully disagree with the below comment. Taylor Swift has often had high profile collaborators and producers (Max Martin; Jack Antonoff etc.). Taylor's records tend to sound both like Taylor and her collaborators. I see it as a strength rather than a weakness, which has enabled Taylor to c..." [+] Reply

"So I'm currently working at an Applebees as a server. They have one of those TouchTunes jukeboxes and I just downloaded the app for it. That way I can play music without being judged by others for my superior taste. Around 11 PM I played "Stagger Lee" and followed it up with "O'Malley's Bar." It ..." [+] Reply

"Yes, it is so incredibly good that many of the tracks are still ranking at or around 90. If you've never heard this album, it's because it's by Ween. Just about everybody, at a certain point before this album, wrote Ween off as a novelty band (and rightfully so, at least for the early 90s). Howev..." [+] Reply

"Along with, ray of light, like a prayer, is Madonna's best album. Usually with Madge, there are great singles but albums always tend to have a bit of filler on them. Not here. Having said that the singles are still the strongest songs; cherish, express yourself, and the title track are perfect po..." [+] Reply

"It's easily the best Sabbath album with Dio, and maybe even one of their overall best. It might even be Ronnie James Dio's best work. This and Holy Diver anyway. Ozzy being kicked out of Sabbath was the best thing ever. We got Blizzard of Ozz and this beautiful album out of it." Reply

"Cannot decide between this and Pornography. Both are masterpieces of the darkest and the most "goth" Cure period. Holy Hour against One Hundred Years, All Cats Are Gray against A Strange Day and so on..." Reply

"I remember reading BEA user JulianR’s comment on My Bloody Valentine’s Loveless “never has an album been so synonymous with a genre, yet so unique within it”, but my mind, however, leapt immediately to this one. So iconic was its release that the entire labelling of the ambient genre followed its..." [+] Reply

"Early Sabbath do no wrong. Even when massively coked up during the writing and making of this, they still produce an album of a caliber that most bands will never even get close to. An all round classic that never fails to deliver. 'Laguna Sunrise' will be played at my funeral when I'm dead. My a..." [+] Reply

"A haunting album that gets darker and darker the deeper into it you go. Unwound tells you right from the start that if you dont give this album your full attention for more than an hour you can just fuck off." Reply
