"It's pretty rare album art draws me in this deep. I just did a very cursory review of some of my collection, and none of the art hits me like this one. Dare I say, side by side, it makes a lot of album art look like just something that everyone sends with an album because they have to. I like the..." [+] Reply

"I found this much more accessible than "Iowa" or their self titled album, which were barely listenable for me. I don't see myself returning to this album, but it was an interesting listen and by no means a waste of time. Overall, 70/100." Reply
"Less of an album to listen to and more of an album to invite into your presence, allowing it to accompany you as you walk, or sleep, or write, etc. It's like the corners of a painting and you get to be the centre." Reply

"my favorite Placebo album. i don't understand all the hate it gets. It has some of my favs like Commercial For Levi, Passive Aggressive and Days Before You Came. also the singles are amazing and singles-wise this is definitely the best of Placebo. also how can people hate Spite And Malice? It's a..." [+] Reply

"Outside of Flowers In The Window and Sing it a nice and gentle affair. However the two previously mentioned are the only songs I found to be great on here. You would like this a lot if you liked Coldplay and Snow Patrol though." Reply

"What can I say? Beth Gibbens' voice is haunting, in the most musical way possible. It makes it only more romantic that she lives as a recluse and essentially sends tapes of herself singing to her compatriots. While the Portishead albums are excellent, I would claim this to more masterful and comp..." [+] Reply

"Great great Dream Theater album. Not a bad track on the album, not even Vacant, in fact it's a brilliant lead in to arguably the greatest instrumental in their catalog, Stream of Consciousness. In the Name of God is one of the best album closers of all time." Reply

"This was the first M83 album I bought and it turned out to be completely worth it. Every song here feels like it has its own personality and draws out different emotions from me that almost feels like they bring back great memories that I've forgotten. Forgo, Saturday = Youth does what title says..." [+] Reply

"For a long time I thought that no album or collection can come near OK computer. Then came Misery is a butterfly and proved me as being wrong. The greatest creations usually don’t require additional supportive comparison to shine. The album is tribute to beauty and every moment in it is a masterp..." [+] Reply

"Well, this was certainly a strange album. 'Given Up' comes on and I'm expecting this album to be terrible. The guy is screaming and swearing without no real reason. The next song does a complete U turn and is rather pleasant. Next you have Bleed It Out, which isn't as bad as 'Given Up', even a li..." [+] Reply
