"Despite many cries of 'emo', this album comes across as an intense and intelligent slice of rock with a dose of anger to make it truly exciting listening."
"You won't find a more fun - or more trashy - band around. Much inspiration from PVC and B-movies, big hair and sunglasses after dark. Go now and hear it."
"Although many Misfits fans would argue about this album, I'd say its the best way to learn about the Misfits sound. New lineup, same attitude, 10 fantastic 1950's covers."
"The best Pixies album of their career, this is kooky, charismatic alternative rock who became known to the mainstream after a quick name-drop by one Kurt Cobain."
"A fitting tribute to a great band. Guitars are industrial, but rap-inspired vocals and samples (and fab song titles) set this late, great band a mile above the competition."
"Despite a meteoric rise to fame, HIM are a properly talented band. Look past the critics and see dark, romantic music from a superlative band with excellent vocals. Also fantastic live."
"The latest in an impressive series of European/operatic metal records from Nightwish. Tarja has a beautiful voice which is not at all compromised by the metal backing from the other band members."
