"Really bad. Dull, no good songs and Natalie's vocals are low in the mix, Rob's guitar gets all the prominence, it's no wonder she left. On the two previous albums each song is a story but here you can't even make out what the vocals are saying, let alone be drawn in to them."  Reply

"Obviously a classic gig, but without the visuals it's a little bit flat. Musically, it's not as good as the Milton Keynes bowl, Queen on fire, album, when Freddie was in brilliant voice. Here, his voice is a bit more shouty and less melodic. Still, it's enjoyable enough, but like I said, without ..."  [+]  Reply

"I'm not a big rap fan, so this record was instrumental in introducing me to the brilliance of ICE T. A really nice mix of social commentary and sophomoric humor blended with some genuinely ass kicking metal."  Reply

"The call and response vocals are interesting. The repetition and long track lengths are meant to induce relaxation and a sort of trance of enlightenment, apparently. They do get into a nice groove at times: best was "Ali Maula". The underlying melody isn't always compelling, and the long track le..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is one of my favorite top 100 albums you can check out with additional comments. Magnapop is one of my favorite girl bands, and boy, they rock. This first album sounds a bit naive and this together with the strong delivery gives this album an edge which I really liked and still like. H..."  [+]  Reply

"While not on par with the first two Dio albums, this is still a fine addition to the Sabbath catalog. Highlights are the crushing "Letters from earth," and the wicked closer "Buried Alive""  Reply
