"Tori Amos kicks arse in a raw, confessional style. She's vaj-with-teeth (per se). She demonstrates what is beautiful and strong and vulnerable about women. "God" is the best track off of this album. ("God sometimes you just don't come through.") She's not as impenetrably raw as Kate Bush. She doe..." [+] Reply

"This album is like nothing I've ever heard before... every track is just fantastic, not a single filler, with this superbe gloomy atmosphere that permeates every second of it. It's quiet, dark and unpredictable in the way of using so many instruments together and in the way of songs' structure. A..." [+] Reply

"No frills, old-style country, featuring the man and his guitar. Highly recommended for those who like to go back in history." Reply

"Immediately launching into attack, the guitars of Rick Froberg and John Reiss converge relentlessly, building a case for one of the all time great math rock/punk records. It's technical without being showy. Songs suffocate when they need to, and also breathe when necessary." Reply

"Sixteen Stone, sixteen degrees of awesomeness. As far as debut albums go this is one of the best. Sadly Bush would never came within a Bulls Roar of repeating Sixteen Stone ( though Swallowed is pretty awesome) . I’ve had a long love affair with this album and often play it to this day . All kill..." [+] Reply

"Elliott Smith's work has always been deeply personal. Even at his most pop influenced, Elliott was never writing for anyone other than himself. In the case of Roman Candle, he never even intended for anyone other than himself to hear his art. This is unexpected the start of Smith's career of mela..." [+] Reply

"Digable Planets is a rap trio formed in Brooklyn in 1987, and "Blowout comb" is their second and last real album. He was released in 1994, at a very exciting time for rap. Many musical genres are explored by hip hop, the fusion with jazz is one of the most important. And in this mid-decade, the r..." [+] Reply
