"What to make of Out Of Time? As an R.E.M mega fan I’ve grappled with this question for 25 years & TBH I still don’t know & may never fully understand. The 1st 4 songs in Radio Song , Loosing My Religion, Low and Near Wild Heaven are average to say the least before Endgame , Shiny Happy People ( y..." [+] Reply

"While Doolittle and Surfer Rosa get a lot more attention from critics, I place Trompe le Monde right there alongside those two albums in my own Pixies pantheon. Probably the most important difference between Trompe le Monde and the Pixies' earlier work is the reduced role of Kim Deal, making this..." [+] 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

"I bought this album inspired by their great compilation "Recurring Dream" . "Woodface" was the logical choice with the outstanding "Weather With You" and the fine singles "Fall at Your Feet" and "It's Only Natural" - moreover "Woodface" is the only album to feature both Finn brothers. At first th..." [+] Reply

"While the album as a whole may not be musically that dark, there is a haunting and gloomy aura hovering over the album, especially on tracks such as I'm Going Slightly Mad, Bijou and The Show Must Go On. Mercury was a dying man, but you genuinely cannot tell just by listening to the sheer power i..." [+] Reply
