"THE BANISHED ANGEL Angels can sin. I bet you didn’t know that. But they can. They can take their station next to God for granted. Become ungrateful. Arrogant. And then they fall to Earth. To watch over us. As penance to get back into God’s graces. They don’t know how many souls they have to save...."  [+]  Reply

"This album may be Brockhampton's most focused album to date but that doesn't make it their best or even good necessarily. Like on previous projects different members stick out in different ways than they have before. In my opinion, Bearface and Kevin continue to be the best to feature vocals in t..."  [+]  Reply

"After the two out-of-nowhere supernovas that were his first two (brief) albums, he settles down here for a slightly more relaxed, somber record- but still just as witty and never with a wasted moment. The sunday-morning hangover record is probably the best way to describe it, or perhaps coming ho..."  [+]  Reply

"Drinking game: take a shot everytime Martin references going up or flying or any kind of ascending. Actually don't, I don't want to take the responsibility for multiple cases of alcohol poisoning."  Reply

"There is no doubt that this artist has once been a fan of Damien Rice. And that he gets a lot of hate because he writes beutiful songs that kids like too. Yes "too". It's the Coldplay Syndrome or guilty pleasure that messes up someones I guess already fragile macho self-image. There is no wheel-i..."  [+]  Reply

"On 2011's The Hunter, Mastodon shed their sludge roots and their recent progressive tendencies, shifting to a straightforward hard rock sound. On this record, they bring back a bit of the prog, but are still leaning heavily on catchy riffs and choruses. It hasn't done much to appease fans of thei..."  [+]  Reply

"This album is simply a new, beautiful and rare masterpiece. Original in style, well balanced & consistent - like one long piece made up of related movements - and totally gorgeous sounds and melodies from start to finish. Probably Goldfrapp's best album, and deserves much higher ratings than curr..."  [+]  Reply

"I think that this album will move up in terms of ranking when it will be getting better known. Even if he sings in French it doesn't seem to be a problem to have high positions in non French speaking countries. Logic, if you listen to papatouai or to formidable you understand why."  Reply
