"Reading comments for this album, all I can think about this site is that people here either have a great sense of humor, an awful taste or are completely nuts. Taylor Swift a great songwriter? Please tell me you're joking." Reply

"While the Spanish title of Khruangbin’s latest album hints at its Latin influences, it could really have been in about twenty languages because Con Todo El Mundo is an international trip. The album is perfectly designed for passive listening, but becomes much more rewarding through close listenin..." [+] Reply

"This album is somewhat experimental, but in nearly all the wrong ways. The minute or so long tracks of Jack rambling add nothing to the album (they're also really cheesy and cliched).
