"This album was huge in Britain, where 'Grace Kelly', 'Love Today' and 'Relax (Take it Easy)' were big hits. Did not deserve the apathy it received in the states. It's worthwhile to pay attention to the British music charts, and this album proves it."  Reply

"This is the album Wilco should've made as the "A Ghost Is Born" 180 degree return to the "Being There" phase. They do everything Wilco did with "Sky Blue Sky", but demonstrate more of a fresher, rootsier perspective. There are elements of funk, rock, bluegrass and punk on this album."  Reply

"Meh. This album is entirely predictable, which can be a good thing but the fact that it's so predictable and so short isn't. The lyrics are classic quirky semi-pessimistic generic stuff about people and the instrumentation is folk played loudly. This album is basically In The Aeroplane Over The S..."  [+]  Reply

"This should've been Bloc Party's follow-up to "Silent Alarm". This is a fun, new-wavey at times, almost dance-punkish at times, party album with some serious undertones ("four horsemen of 2012" anyone?), underscored by two dance floor ravers "golden skans" and "gravity's rainbow"."  Reply

"The first four songs and the last song are WT classics, and among their best material. The rest? Meh...more the same. Still, those five songs are enough to make this a critical release for the genre. This album showed that WT was better than Evanescence."  Reply

"A consistent album of filler with some of the bands best songs. A Little Piece of Heaven, Afterlife and Crtical Acclaim are awesome. They´ve done better, but this album is still badass."  Reply

"Who doesn't like symphonic-prog death metal with a Valkyrie-like female singer from the Netherlands? I certainly can't think of anybody, except maybe my Mom, and some of her friends... also, most of my friends... Anyway, it's like they took all the metal subgenres that everyone makes fun of all t..."  [+]  Reply

"Certainly deerhunter''s most experimental work. A heap of sonic guitar effects, distorted vocals and lengthy instrumental sections still make this a great listen however. Fans of halcyon digest may find this to be a bit of an adjustment at first, though fans of shoe gaze/ noise rock acts such as ..."  [+]  Reply
