"A lot better than his first album in my opinion, but still some songs seem too linear. And sometimes the songs have such similar qualities that they go past the realm of just 'his style' and go into the realm of a lack of creativity, if that makes any sense. But songs like Overgrown, Retrograde, ..." [+] Reply

"I was really taken aback by this album. I always thought of Cage the Elephant as a band that used to be cool before making soft pop-rock hits. But I had never really listened to them, and this actually turned out to be a very musically interesting album. Sure it has Come A Little Closer and Cigar..." [+] Reply

"Not as immediately striking to me as 22, A Million. But to be fair, 22 A Million is one of my all time favorite albums. I just never heard something quite so gripping as Over Soon or Deathbreast. It feels almost, alllmostttt, like an alternative R&B album. Which is nice, but I much preferred his ..." [+] Reply

"Album rating - 72, average track rating - 79. Hmm. 7/10 is probably fair though. The people bashing this album hard are enjoying being on the bandwagon of 'watching the strokes' slow and painful death', when if a new band had released this they would probably have reasonably enjoyed it." Reply

"If You are a fan of Kate, this is the undoubtedly best album of 2011. If You are not, You will become one after listening carefully. Do not hurry with opinions, this piece will grow inside You after several tries. Then shall stay there forever. And, although hit is not her best, it is still a pro..." [+] Reply

"I can't believe that I liked a Taylor Swift album. A great crossover album. A collection of radio-friendly singles some of which will play top 40, some will play country and some indy. It is produced and tuned up the wazoo so you have to accept that. I enjoyed 12 of the 16 songs and thought 3 of ..." [+] Reply

"Listened to this on a long car ride home with all my friends last night. They were blown away and the whole car ride was almost hypnotizing with the repetition and slowly evolving songs. This is an outstanding album that I'll always return to." Reply

"My favourite Florence + The Machine album. There's no bad song or filler in this album, and Florence's voice is tremendous. One of the best of 2015, it's beautiful!" Reply

"Although often considered the little brother of KNY, it is very much an album of its own and stands equal in height. To me it is classic Deftones in that they manage to successfully blend a romantic atmosphere with heavy grooves, and man is it something good. This is a more mature side of Deftone..." [+] Reply
