"This album meant absolutely nothing to me first few times I heard it, and I have no idea how. Pop-punk was a massive part of my high school experience and I gave all of the big bands a shot, but it seems the appeal of this record was lost on me at the time. I gave it a try again my senior year of..." [+] Reply

"Can't believe i'm the only one with this album in my chart, a musical genius at his very, very best" Reply
"This is a nice album if you don't feel like diving headfirst into Madvillainy or DOOM's solo stuff. It's like a gateway drug I guess. Speaking of drugs, it's probably better on them. Not that I'd know." Reply

"A true favorite of mine. I think Mean Everything To Nothing is Andy Hull at his most consistent and overall powerful as a songwriter so far. I enjoy each of Manchester's albums, some more than others, but this is the most cohesive with the best individual tracks. The River, Shake It Out, I Can Fe..." [+] Reply

"Autechre have gone through a few distinct changes over the course of their career, or really just one, very gradual change. From their early Incunabula days as melodic technicians, Autechre have crafted some of the most intelligent and intensely mathematical electronic on the IDM scene, but the s..." [+] Reply

"One of my favorite records by Mogwai, and one of the first that introduced me to the band when I was in high school. Incredible soundscapes, both heavy and beautiful. I love closing my eyes and letting this album wash over me. Favorite Tracks: Friend of the Night, Auto Rock, Glasgow Mega-Snake, T..." [+] Reply

"This album is a great collage of music in different languages mixed with audio bites from Latin American or Spanish radio. It all flows very well and the music and lyrics reflect the personality and ideas of Manu Chao, who besides having a rock-punk-ska musical background, also embraces Latin Ame..." [+] Reply
"A really underrated album. The entire thing from start to finish is just a masterpiece. Like originally the only album I had heard from him was Poses, then someone referred me to Want One and I had really no idea how talented this man really is." Reply

"I think I'm halfway in-between the earlier comments. While this album isn't an all-time favourite and some of the covers struggle, it's also not a poorly executed flop. Their covers of Renegades of Funk and How I Could Just Kill a Man aren't better than the originals, but take them in an entirely..." [+] Reply
