Popular Reviews

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

Elevated elevator music. Boring. Progressive, yet anti-climatic.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits

Serenely shredding Guitar guides you through the blues With effortless cool

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento

Pleasant, but simplistic and boring instrumentation.

Locust Abortion Technician by Butthole Surfers

Weird, abrasive, fuzzy, and shocking. The guitar sound is superb, as is the playing. I think I love it.

Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock

Wow. So bad it’s laughable. It’s from a very distinct time in cultural history, and it only fit in that brief window. Now it’s near offensively terrible.
