"This album is held together by a similar sound but it's filled with few peaks and many valleys. The are only a couple of songs that are anything special for me, Something Soon and Maud Gone. The music has a more professional sound than the band's previous work but it is apparent that they had run..." [+] Reply

"Really underrated and misunderstood. Many fans including me were shocked with the straightforward pop/rock, emphasis on pop, of Minutes To Midnight. That whole album scaled down the intensity and punch of previous Linkin Park. A Thousand Suns is generally more mellow too but it is way more creati..." [+] Reply
"It doesn't seem like too many others are, but I'm thoroughly impressed w this album. Love the mixture of distortion and synth, and there's a good amount of variety with the production and melodies. A really mature release from a band who I had only expected bouncy, carefree pop from." Reply
"Really good, track for track, but you could cut three or four songs here without missing anything. Otherwise, terrific songwriting--if a little samey--and even better production." Reply

"This defied all my expectations. I thought it was going to be 'generic King Gizzard material', but this record may be one of their best, if not their best album to date. Very consistent from start to finish. I can't even tell which songs are my favorites because every one of them is amazing!" Reply

"No one is more in the bag for this record. It took To Pimp a Butterfly to beat it for my AOTY the year their debut was released. The Underside of Power does not have the immediacy of Algiers' self-titled, which is really to this record's benefit. There's more room for variety, for atmosphere, for..." [+] Reply
