"Well it had to happen eventually. After releasing three really good albums, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs have finally released a mediocre album. “Mosquito" feels disjointed and, honestly, kind of boring, which is the exact opposite of what you’d expect from a Yeah Yeah Yeahs album. They’ve built they’re c..." [+] Reply

"This has slowly become the soundtrack to many late night rides for me and my friends. I love these guys." Reply
"It's definitely a worthwhile listen, but I'm not convinced that it's as great as any of its predecessors. "Matangi" is practically as chaotic as its highly underrated predecessor "MAYA", but it lacks the diverse, sonic innovation of that album. It also lacks the fascinating political subtext of A..."

"I've listened to this album more than any other since its release in 2013. It's a criminally underrated record, though I understand that not all listeners will identify with it as much as I do. It's the only record I've ever heard that attempts to capture--and does so brilliantly--what it was lik..." [+] Reply

"Every now and then, an album’s name is absolutely perfect to describe the album itself, and in the case of Autre Ne Veut’s “Anxiety", you have an album that feels anxious, that feels crazy. It’s difficult to describe this album with much clarity. It has a pop sensibility to it, but it keeps you o..." [+] Reply

"Good, dubstep-like production, but lyrics and vocals aren't that compelling for this album that's following the new alt-r&b model as weeknd that has become so indie-popular." Reply

"I found this record to be superficial on every aspect (lyrics, sound). No doubt it is easy to access but I think Bastille will be quickly forgotten." Reply

"Hey, when you listen to skate punk, you’re going to get exactly that, skate punk. You’re not going to get something deep or profound, you’re going to get something loud, something fast and something that doesn’t take itself seriously. That’s what we have here with the debut album from Fidlar. It’..." [+] Reply

"For me, this is Dream Theater’s most underrated album. In my eyes, it doesn’t carry the title “Dream Theater” by accident. This record is a masterpiece and a statement: this is who we are — Dream Theater! It’s incredibly elaborate in both composition and production — with orchestral and classical..." [+] Reply
