"The album that got me into the charlatans in a big way. They finally hit their stride with this, a big improvement on the previous realeases, and self titled the album as a sign of it, somethink not often done on for a 4th album. The 3 albums that followed it were better but this is still a great..." [+] Reply
"This was a tad disappointing. I like everything I'd heard prior so was quite excited to hear this with Ginger Baker on board. But this is very far removed from the Stoner/Desert Rock that you expect from Masters of Reality & Chris Goss. This comes across as more like a hybrid of Queen style harmo..." [+] Reply

"With 'Boces' (the follow-up to their debut masterpiece, 'Yerself Is Steam') Mercury Rev's Dave Fridmann and Jonathan Donahue have proven to be arguably the most creative artists to have emerged on the scene since Mayo Thompson. Beautiful pastoral sounds of the flute merge with sonic collages, fre..." [+] Reply
"to me this is one of he greatest rap albums of all time. a classic masterpiece of east coast brilliance, underrated record by the masses." Reply
"For whatever reason I always liked this more than Fugazi. It's heavy and unrelenting but not at all boring." Reply
"The sound featured in this work is extremely hypnotic, catchy, dark and ethereal. A very particular evolution of techno music and ambient combined. I think the more I'm going to listen to it, the more I'll like it." Reply
"Note about the track listing: This was released with two different sets of tracks. The one listed above is the Australian version; I am familiar with the International version, and that's what's available on Spotify.

"I prefer the single-CD edition of this album, that came out in 1995! It omits the tracks "Beautiful Sister", "Giftland" and "Sungravy" and contains edited versions of "Leave It Like That", "The Wheel" and "On My Pillow"." Reply
"What's not to like with this album? It's a great example of earthy, emotive songs with Heather's most impassioned vocal delivery. 'Heal', 'Island', 'Maybe An Angel' all burst with personality. The scathing lyric in 'Blue Black' shows that Heather has an angry side, but is strong enough to stand d..." [+] Reply
