"All Counting Crows stuff is good, but this is amazing. Not a bad track on it. The first three tracks rock it out and Raining in Baltimore gets to me every time."
"This guy is great by himself or with the band. This album is definitely less flashy than some of the band's stuff and this allows the lyrics to become the focus, for example Gravedigger."
"A slightly different sound but absolutely rocking. Put it on loud. The album hangs together really well, but Bend and Not Break is an outstanding track."
"R.E.M. have so much great stuff that any Best Of was going to be amazing. It's a shame It's the End of the World isn't on there but it still rocks. My favourite track has to be Losing My Religion."
"A wicked New York emo band. Great at shouting and layering, and sincere without being corny. My best track on here is Ghost Man on Third. I defy you not to shout along."
"He was the best thing at Glastonbury. Hardly anyone knew his stuff but he rocked the crowd anyway. Riding on the Subway is brilliant, it reminds me of the best parts of Simon and Garfunkel."
"Old school Dashboard, back when Chris was truly anguished! Every track on here is heartfelt and beautifully sung, but for me, Best Deceptions stands out."
"Whitlams seem to have three different styles: dark (Cries Too Hard); upbeat (I Will Not Go Quietly); sweet (Best Work). And they're all well put together and sound amazing."
"The album doesn't do justice to how great this guy is live but it's still better than most things around. A lot of the stuff is upbeat but he does meaningful just as well, shown by Absolutely Zero."
"He's been around for ages but I only found him last year. He's great live and, in my opinion, this is his best album. I think Ugly Stories is probably the centre of the album."
"Another one with a huge back catalogue. She rocks live and writes brilliant lyrics. I like her older stuff too but Telling Stories shows how brilliant her song writing abilities are."
"I heard them live and had to get this. More produced than the old stuff but not as much as the new. It keeps rocking the whole way through. Nightingale is a great example of how good emo can be."
"So gutted I didn't get to see them live but will be buying the dvd to make myself feel better. So many to choose from, but Wild Horses and Paint It Black are the ones I skip to first."
"His second album and probably better than the first but it doesn't have Flake. It does have some great tracks though, especially The Horizon Has Been Defeated."
"I have this on dvd and would have loved to have been at this concert. On here is the best version of All Along the Watchtower I've ever heard. It's worth it just for that."
