"I think these American Recordings series should really be sold as Johnny Cash, by Rick Rubin. As Rubin's influence is what made the difference in Cash's career over the last decade of his life. What a gift that was to the music world. Every one of these is superb. While this one isn't my personal..." [+] Reply

"The Dandy Warhols' run through a gamut of influences on "Thirteen Tales From Urban Bohemia". "Godless" opens this album with an acoustic guitar reminiscent of George Harrison's 'My Sweet Lord' and takes turn into a Burt Bacharach vibe... A spacey psychedelic "Mohammed" has a chilled Beatleish ton..." [+] Reply

"The first half of this album is absolute dynamite. Unfortunately it really drops off with the last 6 tracks, specifically the two shortest tracks Renholder and Over which don't really offer anything. 3 Libras is a beautiful beautiful song, it will really speak to anyone who's been in the position..."

"This is a non-stop, if I listen to a track of it I listen them all. Each one is so well crafted, the productions are flawless, her vocals are beautiful, the dance euphoria of the first 3 are insane and Music has my favourites Madonna's compositions. I love how she moves throught such diferent sty..." [+] Reply

"Damon Gough's greatest album. It's an eclectic record, full of fantastic songs and is an excellent musical journey through different moods and styles. A modern day British classic." Reply

"One of the most captivating and gorgeous ambient records out there. I remember being somewhat bored once Pop 4 came along. But now this is one of the best records of the 2000's. Probably Top 10 material in my book. Wonder how I would have felt of this record in the year 2000. Probably wouldn't ha..." [+] Reply

"I just listened to this record last night. I was really impressed with the mood of the record. It's gloomy and somber. It sounds like a whole album of musical sorrow for something. The strings and voices and drums all contribute. There's almost no wasted space, it's a record completely devoted to..." [+] Reply

"This is easily one of the most underrated albums ever. Few of anyone ever realizes just how incredible this album is. It's rich with great guitar melodies, strong songwriting, Ben Gibbard's cryptic, yet addictive lyrics, and the kind of focus on concept that hasn't really been seen since, even if..." [+] Reply

"These tracks independently would be 90/100, but when together they make an album 95/100, it is unbelievable that this album is not among the 500 best of all time." Reply
