The Can album to buy if you must have only one
Review of Tago Mago - Can by Drdad

Advantages: Groundbreaking, influential, awe-inspiring
Disadvantages: None

Can are one of those bands who get name-dropped by all sorts of trendy bands but who remain generally unknown to the public at large. They have a sizeable cult following, however, and most devotees rate this (or its successor, Ege Bamyasi) as their best. Can were: Michael Karoli (RIP) - guitar; Holger Czukay - bass; Irmin Schmidt - keyboards and Jaki Liebzeit - drums. Their most important collaborators were two singers: Malcolm Mooney on their earliest ...
...Can album to feature Suzuki only on vocals (Soundtracks features contributions from both Mooney and Suzuki) and he immediately makes his presence felt. The band's sound is here moving away from its earlier dabblings in Velvet Underground territory into something stranger and wilder. Paperhouse starts off gently, allowing you to become accustomed to Suzuki's unique vocal style, halfway between wordless babbling and decipherable lyrics. After a few ... Read review

It's been a long time
Review of Boyzone - Boyzone by avd2007

Advantages: Ronan
Disadvantages: Ronans hair

Well they have reunited after all this time and seem to be doing rather well. I use to be a big fan but had my doubts about them reforming as it may be good for some of them but maybe not so much for Ronan. They had a sell out concert and have released several singles and an album. I would have liked to here more new songs from them on the album rather than just their old songs re done though (they already did this in their Best Of before they split). ...
...but cheesy dancing and clothes. Now Im a huge Ronan fan but what has he done to his hair! If I was his wife I would not let him walk out like that especially as he is now into his 30's! On the whole they seem to be doing very well and Im just happy to be able to see Ronan on tv again! ... Read review

Let's get ratty
Review of Brasil [Digipak] - Ratos De Porao by dangaroo

Advantages: Superb thrash & punk throughout
Disadvantages: None

Brasil by Ratos De Porao is a true masterpiece, an ideal mix of punk, hardcore and thrash metal with even the nice occasional melodical touch thrown in for good measure, fast instrumental work and outstanding guitar solos to get your fingers moving (particularly on the track Law of Silence) to, to add to the idealistic guitar solos there is also some amazing bass lines and militant hammering drumming throughout. The vocals are spot on for the genre ...
...on how you look at it - it's either an abominal row from the word go or a classic album of thrash fused punk full of anger and energy. It's very hard to select a favourite track as the Brazilian outfit blast their way through regularly visited punk topics like politics, drug overdoses, alcoholism, law and order but some of the most enjoyable tracks are undoubtedly of a native theme - Brasil, Amazonia Never More and Land of Carnival. There are two ... Read review
