""Dude, I wasn't out of inspiration, I was watching." Whatever, it's fun. Dr. Dre comes back with an overproduced set of tracks of which the best thing you could say is that they're catchy. All the while keeping up appearences that he's still the mf OG of rap. Sure Dre, as long as you keep them be..." [+] Reply

"Beware! Anyone familiar with "Deserter's Songs", this is NOT chamber pop, but beautiful noise pop. If you like noise, this is the place to go. Blew my mind first time I heard it!" Reply

"Pom Pom is absolutely one of 2014's strangest albums. I remain a little on the fence as to whether or not it's one of the year's best. In its favor I'll say it succeeds utterly in busting down any notion of musical genre, residing somewhere in the ambiguous terrain carved out by the likes of Fran..." [+] Reply

"This is a great album, and as the person before me said, this is better than their next and more popular album, Songs from the Big Chair. In addition to really thoughtful lyrics, the music here is really good. The melodies are memorable and interesting, the vocals are nice (almost sounding like t..." [+] Reply

"Get happy, is Elvis Costello's soul album. Motown and Stax is where the heart of this record lies. It's a 20 track LP, and it's breathless. Love for tender, kicks the album off in that fashion and it never let's up. From the catchy, king horse, and, possession, to the more relaxed, secondary mode..." [+] Reply

"This is ranked outside the top 500 albums! Incomprehensible!! This is a real classic- so much energy, humour and personality. This album is a joy. So many classics including their peerless cover of "a message to you Rudy". The pace never lets up and the tracks simply burst out of the speakers. Hi..." [+] Reply
