"This is a really good album with all the songs working really well together. An eclectic mix of songs and influences for the album but it is certainly one of his best." Reply
"A very fresh and active sounding album. The guitar work is fantastic, the singing is emotional and powerful and the songwriting is extremely original. Only complaints being it gets a bit samey, but we'll see if it gets better with each listen." Reply

"A very poppy album for Byrne & Eno. Decent collection of songs unlike any other collaboration they've done in the past." Reply

"When this came out, it had been 8 years since the last AC/DC album. As soon as you hear those opening chords....you KNOW it's AC/DC....and it's like seeing an old friend after a long time apart. AC/DC's style may be simple and basic...but nobody sounds quite like them." Reply

"Another great recent band who brought this stunning debut album - a stoner mix of straight up rock, a little bit of rock and some blues. Wucan and Bright Lights are stand outs." Reply
"I saw Earth live at the release of 2014's Primitive and Dealy.
