"Discovered because I like The Divine Comedy and Pugwash, when I heard of the collaboration between the two principle leaders of these bands due to their interest in ELO and cricket...I was all in.

"Crimson Glory are about the only band to produce two consistent high quality albums in the 1980s. And while they might sing songs about communism and dragons, which now sounds a bit silly, the production work is top notch and the melodies wonderful. Shame they weren't able to maintain the momentu..."  [+]  Reply

"The best British reggae album, and possibly my favourite reggae album. This album has no filler, just eight heavyweight cuts. It helps that they're from just down the road too."  Reply

"To be honest... I'm definitly no Ozzy Osbourne Fan, but this Album is great. Jake E. Lee Plays a helluva guitar but most important… It's the Ozzy record with the best songwriting"  Reply

"This album, as well as their self titled, are incredibly underrated in my opinion. I'm seriously in love with their sound. Just a shame about the fact that the single, "New Song" is such a pile of meh."  Reply

"Although arguably not as fun as the straightforward rock and roll of Day of the Dog, Transangelic Exodus is Ezra's most ambitious album to date. More often than not this ambition pays off, with the minimalist song arrangements frequently resulting in music at once both intriguing and compelling. ..."  [+]  Reply

"Against all odds, it's not only one of the best rock albums of 2012, it's Van Halen's best album since the blockbuster "1984." Several tracks stand out as rock classics: "She's The Woman;" "Blood and Fire;" "As Is;" "Big River;" "You and Your Blues;" and the should've-been-the-album's closer, "St..."  [+]  Reply
