"Honestly, I wasn't all that excited to listen to this. As a Radiohead-head, I often found Thom's solo work (Atoms For Peace included) to be not much more than self-administered homework between Radiohead sessions. ANIMA changes this. Instead of coming off sounding like a bored music student arbit..." [+] Reply

"1976 and heartbroken. Classic songwriting of the sort not seen since Rufus Wainwright's 'Want', the quality here is so good that John Grant's debut would be critically acclaimed in any decade since the 1960s. Love is hell, other people are hell, and over and over again. Massaging a bruise until i..." [+] 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

"I really love the vibe on this album. It's not grandiose, but sincere and moody. People might call it too short, but when listening it doesnt really feel to short (though I do love it so much that I woudn't say no to more). It feels much more concise than short; he whittles away all the excesses ..." [+] Reply

"ANTi is Rihanna's 8th album, and although it started off with low sales, it eventually went on to be a #1 album and spend 33 weeks inside the top ten of the Billboard 200, longer than any other black female album since 1994! The highlights of the album include "Same Ol' Mistakes", "Woo", and "Kis..." [+] Reply

"Patrick Stickles merges reality with fantasy in this album. The Civil War serves as a backdrop for something larger. The Monitor is constantly referencing "the enemy" as the Confederates of the Civil War, as well as the conformists of modern society. Listen to this album hard. Move all distractio..." [+] Reply

"Best album i've heard in ages...this is the first album for me that truly captures the spirit of Pavement's Slanted & Enchanted. I'm not saying they sound like Pavement, but you can feel the similarities in the way the album jumps around. The track 'Borrowed Time' has the greatest chorus The Damn..." [+] Reply

"Production was really good throughout, which I didn't really expect. Especially towards the end from the instrumental track onwards. As expected, Earl delivers as a lyricist, though thematically this album seems all over the place and without a clear direction. Earl's flow and delivery, always a ..." [+] Reply
