"The most dynamic tracks here - You're Still My Woman, Ask Me No Questions, King's Special, Chains and Things - sound a little like Led Zeppelin, and it's not because B.B. King took inspiration from them. Zeppelin was at the top of the world in 1970, but I find this album just as compelling and mo..." [+] Reply
"The link between jazz and hip hop has always been there, but this is the album where Miles directly hands off the baton from jazz to hip hop. There ought to be way more mergers between hip hop and jazz beyond samples. The framework for it is right here." Reply
"Is it too early to claim this as my favorite Protomartyr album? Holy cow! Thinking of what to say but can't explain my thoughts very well.

"Songs are a little to rigid for my taste. Not in sound but in structure. If the songs were a little more organic, this would be a whirlwind of a record. Lots of distortion. Drums have an oomph about them and they're crispy has all hell. Can't really speak on the songwriting as of right now. Decen..." [+] Reply
"I have to say, this really grew on me." Reply
"The early 80s synth wave and mid 80s alternative comes to mind when i listen to twin shadow, a range including new order, naked eyes and the cure. Contemporary comparisons would include Yeasayer and Diamond Rings. There's a gloom behind the vocals of each song, where most songs are synth-charged ..." [+] Reply
