Welcome to Debaser. The review is not bad, very dreamlike yet essential at the same time.

You can't belittle an album like this. It represented a challenge, a way to think about music differently. It's not just a simple B-Movie, likely aimed at stimulating human exteriority. It’s a mentally courageous concept and musically superb; it’s a masterpiece. Period.

Welcome to Debaser, an interesting review even if a bit lacking. Since it’s your first time, I’ll give you a higher score.

Happy De-Birthday

Welcome to Debaser. The review is decent, somewhat distracting. The rating is boosted for having thrilled the instincts of the site's regulars (see comments above mine).

First (in casting a vote)

Are you not going to make me the discography of R.E.M.? Please, don’t do it. (This is a plea from a convinced lover of their songs) Your review, as always, is not badly written, although I believe you’ve written some obscenities. 1) Empty "At My Most Beautiful"? Listen to it again. 2) Very melodic Rock style? R.E.M.? 3) A nice trio of great quality? And poor Bill Berry (at least for the albums he was in the studio)? Then there are things I disagree with (like the nice cover of Monster; what about the one from Murmur?). I’d also like to give you 3 pieces of advice: 1) Don’t overrate Reveal, 2) Don’t undervalue Up, 3) Also listen to the albums from the early years if you really want to know them well. One last question: where did you read that "All The Right Friends" was written in 1979? I ask because I remembered it differently.

Great review, I listened to the album some time ago. I don't remember well how it was, I should revisit it before voting on it with full knowledge.

The singing can be in any language (for example, see Sigur Ros who created their own language for their albums) as far as I'm concerned. As long as the record is good, even a moment less than the review.

Beck may not be a genius, but he has made some good records; I didn't mind that. The rating is 3.5.
