"An underrated album by an underrated band. Their first two records are their most raw and also their most overtly political. These catchy songs never overstay their welcome and have things to say about war and imperialism that are, unfortunately, still relevant today. Best: Hustle Rose, Combat Ba..." [+] Reply
"why? is one of those freaky artists that is pretty unclassifiable, i guess mostly part indie pop, part hip-hop. "Alopecia", the falling apart of a man (by the folicle), starts off "i'm not a ladies man, i'm a land-mine" in "the vowels, part 2", and so starts the falling apart of the narrator endi..." [+] Reply

"This is a really good album that you fall asleep but in a good way. You don't need to pay attention to it but if you do, it's rewarding in its own unique experience. Diverse yet cohesive. This album isn't very elaborate and developed as their later releases but it's not meant to be. Their masterp..." [+] Reply

"I recently became acquainted with the Neil Hannon project "The Duckworth Lewis Method" and was very impressed by the album. British music tradition in the vein of great songwriters like Ray Davies and Pete Townsend. I subsequently wanted to listen more closely to some of the recent The Divine Com..." [+] Reply
"Were it not for the vocals, I can easily imagine this would be amazing, but those vocals are impossible to ignore (luckily enough there are many instrumentals parts, which are all highly enjoyable)." Reply

"Few albums really rock as hard as this bad boy. I was a little turned off at first due to the weird style, and lack of coherent lyrics, but after a second listen I realised that this album pulls off a feat that few albums can achieve; and that's the ability to make me headbang and rock out like a..."

"Badu really lets loose on this one. None of her earlier albums thump like this one. Easily her most hip-hop influenced work. You feel the confidence on this record. However, I find it a tad unfocused at times. While I enjoy the freedom, a little more control would greatly enhance the sound." Reply
