"Great Album. But not in all of the ways ! mostly because the music and vocals. The lyrics ... no. Maybe the only good lyrics on the album are Runaway and Lost in the world.Power is great musically but still lacks in lyric.This album really "shaped" Hip hop.But somehow ruined it too.You could use ..."

"This album concluded a perfect trilogy of albums from The National. And I personally believe it to be the best of the bunch." Reply

"This is not my favorite album. This is not the best album I've heard. But still, this album evoques a certain feeling on me every single time I hear it. It's pure magic. There is no other way to describe it. It makes me feel like I have lived a thousand lives and suddenly I felt the nostalgia of ..." Reply

"'Dance Yrself Clean' is the first ever LCD Soundsystem song that I listened to. The moment the beat drops the first time you listen to it (with your headphones on full volume of course) is one of the most magical musical moments you'll ever experience. And the best part is, the pace and quality t..." Reply

"Just what pop music needed at the moment. Q magazine said it was the 'most forward thinking pop music' and I couldn't agree more. It kicks off with a sublime orchestral score which gets you in the mood for an escape into the realm of 'Plastic Beach.' The first few tracks, which have a very hip-ho..." Reply

"Say what you want about Pitchfork but I find it hard to talk bad about them, as they introduced me to so much good music that I would otherwise never listen to. This album is one example. So good." Reply

"I get why people don't like Joanna Newsom. Her voice is jarring, her songs are long, and filled with overly pretentious lyrics. I get it. I've heard all these complaints every time I've tried to make my friends listen to her, or read anything on the internet about her. But unlike a lot of people ..." Reply

"The best Black keys album, but having said that nothing the Black keys do is ever spectacular. Everything they do is always just okay. It's always competently done but it's always nothing better than good. All their songs are just alright. They haven't written even one great song. They're always ..." Reply
