7/10.



Neko Case - The Needle Has Landed

8.4/10

Duran Duran -- Femme Fatale

7.5/10 - I find 80's music too grating.

7.5/10. Great music, but I don't care much for the vocal style. Otherwise I probably would have given it a 9/10.



The Smiths - Reel Around the Fountain

8/10. Some of my favourite Smiths lyrics.

9/10 Nice Suedehead!

8/10

7/10.



The Smiths - William, It Really Was Nothing

9.75/10

Kate Bush --- Cloudbusting

8/10.



The Smiths - I Want The One I Can't Have



One of my favorite Smiths songs.

9/10. One of my favourites also.

7.15/10 I never know what to make of ambient music but that track is pleasing.

5/10 I usually don't listen to lyrics but the uniqueness and also the folk influences gives it a few extra points.

10/10 best fusion of sino-japanese chant with contemporary music I've ever heard

Here's the Buddhist Heart Sutra chanted and accompanied by New Age music:

6/10.



Radiohead - No Surprises

8.5/10 - Very good song, It kind of reminds me of Snow Patrol, only a little bit, but I wouldn't be surprised if Radiohead was an inspiration of theirs.

8.5/10, used to listen to that all the time.

7/10. I prefer New Order's older stuff.

Do you like Depeche Mode? If you listen to New Order, you'd likely enjoy Depeche Mode who I probably like slightly more than New Order. Don't think I've ever seen you post their music before, so I assume that you don't listen to them.



Neko Case - Hold On, Hold On

7.5/10. I don't normally like female vocals, but that was actually pretty enjoyable.

And no - I don't. I've tried listening to them before, but they don't really interest me.

7/10.



Depeche Mode - Black Celebration



In my opinion, the best Depeche Mode stuff is from 1986-1990. That's when all their best stuff was made. I find that their stuff from before 1986 is rather dated, but some of it is still quite enjoyable, especially the stuff on Some Great Reward. Their best albums, in my opinion, are Black Celebration, Music for the Masses, and Violator. If you plan to further check out Depeche Mode, be sure to stay away from the compilations since a lot of their singles were remixed. Every Depeche Mode remix that I've heard has been inferior to the album version. I wouldn't use YouTube to check out their stuff since it'll mostly have remixes of their songs.

6/10 I liked the music much better than the vocals.

4/10. I like Iggy Pop, but don't like that song.



Depeche Mode - Enjoy the Silence

7/10

6/10 - Just don't like Incubus

10/10.
