Amnesiac

A confident, mature work. You can hear the growth from their earlier releases.

I've introduced maybe a dozen friends to this album and every single one of them has become a fan. That kind of universal appeal combined with genuine artistic depth is incredibly rare. This is the real deal.

I keep trying to find something wrong with this album and I genuinely can't. The melodies are gorgeous, the arrangements are inventive, the lyrics are thoughtful without being pretentious. It just fires on every cylinder from start to finish.

Some interesting ideas here that don't always pan out. You can tell they were trying to push in a new direction and I respect that, even if the results are mixed. A couple of tracks are genuinely great.

Pushes the boundaries of the genre in interesting ways.

I don't think music gets better than this.

Not just a great album — a cultural touchstone.

Perfect from front to back. Not a single moment wasted.
