"First things first: this is not hip-hop, it's grime. And it's probably not even the most necessary grime document (that title probably belongs to a pirate radio set, or maybe More Fire Crew's 'Pow'), but it is far and away the genre's best album. The production is cold and minimal, and Dizzee is ..." [+] Reply

"This is his only worthwhile album... He sounded fresh and ambitious here. Did he get rich and stop trying after this?" Reply

"One the very first bands to herald the shoegazing revival (now in it's 8th year). Lesser Matters is a brilliant album chock full of indie-pop gems." Reply

"Going back and listening to this now it seems strange to think this is the same band that conquered the world with Sex on Fire. It's ramshackle homespun southern country rock but it's their ability to fill the songs with so many little hooks that elevates this. Talihina Sky may well be my favouri..." [+] Reply

"I think this album may even be better than Back to Black. Listen to the song, "Amy, Amy, Amy."

Her appreciation of Frank Sinatra is apparent..." [+] Reply
