"Great sound, almost combines Guns N Roses style hair metal with Cocteau Twins style dream pop. All tracks are good to great ("Rhinoceros", maybe the best ever Pumpkins song?) with maybe the exception of "Suffer". Overall a must-own for Pumpkins fans."  Reply

"Both Illusion records get an 8/10 from me even though there is plenty of filler on both.Personally I believe they should of made a single record and kept the rest for b-sides and future records. My ideal Use Your Illusion album would be: 1) Civil War 2) You Could Be Mine 3) Dust N Bones 4) Live a..."  [+]  Reply

"I really don't know what I'm rating here. I bought the double disc 2005 reissue. The album itself is nice, nothing as special as "Souvlaki", but really hypnotic stuff anyhow. But the real standout here is disc 2 which brings together Slowdive's first 3 amazing EPs. I actually prefer it to the alb..."  [+]  Reply

"LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT A very unique album if I do say so myself. At the beginning of the marvelous decade known as the 90's, Primus released not just one, but 2 amazing pieces of insanity. The style of singing that sounds like a stereotypical white male attempting to impersonate a stereotypical w..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is part of my top 100 you can check out with additional omments. Neil Young had always been one of my favorite artists, both because of his side as his more electric burst especially with Crazy Horse. "Weld" is the perfect example af the second especially because it's a live rendition ..."  [+]  Reply

"Jeff lynne brings pop sensibilities and great guitar production, tones and intricate melodies. Some say he ruined Tom petty but that's nonsense. Three good to excellent albums including this resulted. This next only to full moon fever. Highlights learning to fly, two gunslingers and title track. ..."  [+]  Reply
