"Another, what I would say competent album from Depeche Mode, although, again, unspectacular. As with most DM albums it starts to run out of steam towards the end. 10 tracks instead of 12 would have been better. The other problem with latter day Depeche Mode is the lack of that killer song. They h..." [+] Reply
"Their best effort since 'Technique'" Reply
"have to say, if anything Dream Theater is incredibly talented. More specifically, John Petrucci is incredibly talented. It amazes me how well he plays the guitar and how well he arranges most of Dream Theater’s music. The music here is very good. Great string arrangements over some really cool gu..." [+] Reply

"This is classic Decemberists! Song topics include children and the loss thereof, historical military, summer vs. winter, sailing, and, of course, lust. And there's plenty of vocabulary, if that's your thing. In addition to big words you already know (obverse, condescend, misbegotten) there's also..." [+] Reply

"Six months after it's release this album has finally got me. A lot of listens has now fully revealed the record to me and it is a stunning album. The melodies have evolved over a period of time without even changing, which is incredible, and they've opened themselves up to me to present a brillia..." [+] Reply
"Groovy ambient. Shimmering loops. Fluffy and infinitely soothing wall of sound. Immersive and repetitive." Reply
"Anger, frustration, love, dislocation, suicide, death. These are just a few of the subjects dealt with by this relatively new band on their debut album. The Murder Capital are Irish - this is important. James McGovern sings with an Irish accent and his thick brogue smears a softness and poeticism..." [+] Reply

"I really like a bunch of the songs on this record. I like the vibe of it even if it does get a tad repetitive by the end (which is why Liberation is extra nice). I love the style of the vocals, although I feel the production gives it the feel of being a bit buried. Overall one of the more consist..." [+] Reply

"Ryan Adams has returned with an immaculately-produced, strategically-calculated rock album that hits all of the right notes and comes with all of the effectively-timed hooks. As a result, he has delivered his best album since Jacksonville City Nights. However, what the content editor giveth he al..." [+] Reply

"It's a shame that this is ranked so low knowing this is one of the best works of Trent Reznor of all time. Catches everything about his musicality in a very different perspective. I love this soundtrack." Reply
