Customer Review: Viva La Vida is the only good song. All the other songs are boring and sleepy and are lacking a good melody and a good beat. The bad songs just seem like filler material. Albums that have only one good song suck. I always feel ripped off by those. Also I don't like the death theme that's in a lot of... more info
Customer Review: Fleet Foxes are the once and future kings of the currently thriving "bearded indie folk" music scene (along with the likes of Iron & Wine, Bon Iver and Sea Wolf), and there's a good reason for that. In addition to the heaps of accolades from indie music gatekeepers like Pitchfork (who picked... more info
Customer Review: I will be honest, this is the first Beck CD I have ever purchased. In the past I would here a track and say to myself, "wow that is so cool". It seemed like a post-modern mish mash, very unique---at first. In reality it was like Doritos...delicious at first, but not sustaining. I am glad there were... more info
Customer Review: Third is a journey with Portishead through some new uncharted territory. It leaves you feeling like you've learned something. Beth Gibbon's incomparable vocals are the meat of the entree, but there are so many flavors throughout the collage of this feast. If you like Portishead's previous albums... more info
Customer Review: This DVD will open your senses. Well, at least of sight and sound, though it will also invoke your sense of touch and smell, maybe even taste. The music is different from what one hears on the radio, that is for certain, but if one's mind is open, one will definitely feel the emotions of the... more info
Customer Review: I got "Narrow Stairs" for Christmas and am glad that I asked for it. It opens up with two great songs, "Bixby Canyon Bridge" and I Will Possess Your Heart." Obviously,the melancholy lyrics and plaintive singing of Benjamin Gibbard are the focal points. Not every song is a winner, but the songs that... more info
Customer Review: You Form an Opinion!!!
Wow, I stumbled across this site by googling lyrics to "Evil Urges" and "Look at You", and read this review and laughed. I don't agree with what the comments "stop imitating neil young" (of whom i love) and "Listen to all their older albums NOT THIS ONE". This album has... more info
Customer Review: This is the first Sigur Ros album I bought and I can personally attest it is a good album. There is Hoppipolla, a truly fine song and the closest thing to a hit song the Icelandic band ever had (it is very familiar as it has appeared on tv shows, etc.). The rest is basically ambiance music, sad but... more info
Customer Review: I heard Bon Iver playing Skinny Love live on David Letterman before falling asleep and made a mental note to myself to find out more.
I loved this song so much that January 3rd I could remember the date that Bon Iver played (December 11th).
I bought the album without previewing the... more info
Customer Review: I'm seeing Dear Science on a lot of "best of 2008" lists. This status is well-deserved. Like the best of creative musicians, this talented group has made music that is both challenging and listenable, retaining key elements of their complex sound from an earlier, break-out cd, Return To Cookie... more info
