"Considered by enlightened reviewers to be his finest album. No it's not all smooth listening like other albums, in fact some of it is difficult listening. But this is precisely why it's probably his best album, and will delight a wise listener for years." Reply
"This album has 4 classic tracks: Dirty Girl, Rescue Me, Hurricane and I Believe In You. A brilliant song (although a bit tinny in production) in Squeeze and then 5 other good tracks. Fantastic - worth a listen and Y&T at their best." Reply

"Discovered this through Luke Haines hilarious and extremely cynical memoir, Post Everything: Outsider Rock and Roll. It's a melodic and very downbeat record that reminds me a little of Sparkle Horse or Eels." Reply

"The great thing with Danzig is they do have a sound of their own. I found this album goes down a deeper, slightly darker road than with Lucifuge. Even though a few songs are of a slower, almost heavy ballad like nature, his voice is so well suited that they detract nothing from the album. If anyt..." [+] Reply
"Honestly Ive always struggled to really get into The Rolling Stones on an album level, but have always enjoyed their top tier songs. The first disc of this compilation is just pure heaven." Reply
