"Nice second effort from Welch who seems to try to get a bit more serious in her work with vocal harmonies and to distance herself from the more accesible music of her the debut, it has some nice tunes but it lacks consistency in general, particularly in the middle..." Reply

"A little inconsistent, but it's first and last third are nothing short of stellar. The second third is rather good, but for what Kendrick would come up with next, it doesn't fit into his master-class catalogue that would come after Section.80. Key Cuts: A.D.H.D, Hiiipower, Rigamortis" Reply

"Such a quirky album, they really managed to capture a unique feel to all their songs which I love! It's a little bit post-punk, a little bit pop, a little bit new wave and that's the beauty of the album, you don't know what's going to happen next! Favourite tracks are 'Dance This Mess Around' and..." [+] Reply

"Just like any popular radio band, Sublime seems to attract an unforgivably annoying, loyal fan base. I can't tell you how many girls I've bumped into since the mid-90's who've lived their lives with this album as a soundtrack. Yikes. In all honesty, I hate listening to Sublime around humans becau..." [+] Reply

"Imagine if Massive attack seriously took to quaaludes. For a year. The next day they swear they are NEVER going to touch that crazy ass shit again because they're paranoid as all fuck, and Tricky just shot a gun at the new guest vocalist because she was talking to another guy. BUT FIRST, you can'..." [+] Reply

"An excellent album from The Byrds. Younger than yesterday, really sees the band moving on. Opener, so you want to be a rock'n'roll star, is a sardonic take on the music business featuring trumpet from Hugh Masekela, and it's followed by, have you seen her face, one of Chris Hillman's best byrd so..."

"I had a busy day of listening today. I had a half dozen albums to relisten to. This one included. And to be honest I just wasn't overwhelmingly excited about listening to Tim Buckley. He had never yet clicked with me. Meaning he had never really connected with me or illuminated for me some sort o..." [+] Reply

"This record's really the epitome of hard-bop, even as it stretches the boundaries of the genre into something approaching true avant-garde while still often keeping the boundaries of familiar jazz, resulting in a crucial listen." Reply
