"an interesting transition period between Aphex Twin's early laidback ambient techno and the harsher IDM present later on in his career. could very well be his greatest work for people looking to balance the best of both worlds, but similarly to Autechre's "Chiastic Slide", I find his work directl..."

""jackson cannery" is good, but the ben folds five debut album doesn't truly kick in until "philosophy" ("go ahead, you can laugh all you want, but i've got my philosophy"), a sort-of- parody of all the alternative artists taking themselves and their "angst" so serious. They only bring piamo (ben ..." [+] Reply

"Big L is arguably a better emcee than Biggie, if we woulda been able to see Big L release 1 or 2 more LPs he might have made that argument very easy to make." Reply

"This is one of those albums where upon listening, it’s obvious how many similar bands were formed in its wake. They perfected the heavy, shoegaze-y sound here. Chino Moreno is a big fan and with good reason. Just a really solid album." Reply
"These guys seem to have such a playful attitude towards making music that words fail me in trying to grasp the essence of it.
