"Most underrated album of 2009 next to Fantasies by Metric. Does this website or do the people on it have something against catchy modern alternative pop/rock music? Because this stuff is actually really good if you drop the preconceptions and just give it a chance. I don’t think there’s a single ..." [+] Reply

"This is a sentimental favorite for sure, but there are a ton of great ideas here. It's a thought-out, well made pop album. There are the theatrics for which Panic! have become so famous. The songwriting isn't groundbreaking, but they shake it up (and we listen.) I have to love this album, and I d..." [+] Reply

"Fantastic album by the Keys, easily one of their best. Some of their best songs are on here, and there isn't a bad song in the bunch. By this point they had developed into one of the best rock bands in the business." Reply

"Destroying my soul and ego slowly but completely, tears coming out from my half-closed eyes, the whole world fading out from my view, fireworks burning inside of my brain, the future arriving in some obscure places... It's a beautiful tragedy" Reply

"MJK can do no wrong in my book. This album has been a mainstay in my collection/playlists for years and I still come back to it over and over again. The record flows so well. It is everything from soothing on tracks like, "The Noose" to the explosive numbers like "Pet". In an unusual fashion for ..." [+] Reply

"This is a refreshing album. Songs like "Modern World", "Dear Sons And Daughters Of Hungry Ghosts" and "I'll Believe Anything" are memorable and very catchy." Reply

"NIN are a hell of a band (it’s a bit more complex than that) but they can be pretty hard to get into. Trent Reznor’s style of dark, swirling thumping music is fantastic and doesn’t really have a good comparison (perhaps later Radiohead and Marilyn Manson) but it’s easy to get lost or disintereste..."

"In my top 100 above all sorts of classics, blah blah blah. These songs, for the most part, are catchy as chlamydia, and even well written most of the time. There are most certainly better albums out there, but this is as sentimental a favorite as it gets for me. "Of All the Gin Joints in All the ..." [+] Reply
