"The music sounds tighter, less loose than previous records although it isn't quite as memorable. The songs do grow on you over a period of time and it's still growing on me. I still don't know whether it's as good as, Yellow house, or, Veckatamist, but it's certainly different. Sounding less rust..." [+] Reply

"Elbow have self-classified themselves as "prog without the solos," an assessment I cannot dispute. There are times when Guy Garver sounds exactly like Peter Gabriel, which I consider high praise (even if it's a tad disconcerting for the listener).

"In my opinion, Wilco lost its experimenting creative edge and slid a bit towards adult contemporary fare on albums "sky blue sky" and "wilco (the album)". There were a couple songs like "bull black nova" and "impossible germany" that stretched the new, adult wilco sound, but for the most part, th..." [+] Reply

"Sorry, but this is a fantastic album, so melancholistic and deep at some points. Photographs is one of the best songs of the year. Then you have upbeats like Mr Tembo, which is a perfected crafted song. Best album of 2014 so far." Reply

"A great little energetic gem of an album. Reminiscent of so many different post-punk and new wave bands but with a charm all it's own." Reply

"The more we progress into the 21st Century the more it becomes apparent that male dominated rock has nothing new to say. Indeed, it is only right that an all female band like Savages should symbolise punk rock RIGHT NOW, as theirs is the true voice of rage and discontent in a system that is STILL..." [+] Reply

"Great album and a huge improvement on their previous album. The first three tracks are a bomb, the rest of the album has a great flow with good moments like Tidal Wave" Reply

"Better than Veteran in terms of artistic quality and magnificent production. I've got to sit back and chew on this one for a while though, as it's an intense collage of different sounds constantly thrown at you. There's no way this can be digested in one day, but for now, I'd say this is quite th..." [+] Reply
