"Blown away the first time I heard this record, as soon as I got hooked, I had to buy all the sheet music online. I have never heard anyone make chords function in the way that Art Alexakis does. Every Chord is Major. The use of the II chord is present in nearly every track, WTF??? There are also ..."  [+]  Reply

"An excellent and totally underrated debut. It's full of great songs in the vein of Joni Mitchell. Best tracks are, foolish games, you were meant for me, and, painters. A great album that deserves more attention."  Reply

"It's barely listenable, the songs have no discernible structures, and each vocal melody sounds like a dog being horribly maimed. I mean, it better be one of the best emo records ever recorded."  Reply

"This album is maybe the single most under appreciated albums I can think of ever. Long Fin Kille was an incredible band that diddnt really get the publicity they deserved, they were a little bit too ahead of the Times Music wise, had they came around maybe 4-5 years later they probably would have..."  [+]  Reply

"Queen's let it be. A hotchpotch of solo tracks, b-sides and unfinished doodles, with only three songs recorded after innuendo. Of the 'new' songs, mother love, is the best, freddie's last vocal performance. A dark track. The other two, the funky you don't fool me, is good, but a winter's tale is ..."  [+]  Reply

"Decent to good britpop. 5-10 points deducted as my enjoyment is tarnished by part of my brain constantly saying morrisey for the duration of play. Not an entirely original observation I'm sure. Some good songs here though."  Reply
