    These songs don't require repeated listening to foster appreciation; they affect immediately -- and relentlessly.
  2. Neumu.net

    They're merely using Psychocandy as a workaday aesthetic strategy and, despite loads of melodrama, they never sound pretentious about it either.
  3. Dot Music

    Either they've been taking too much heroin or not enough, but 'Black Rebel Motorcycle Club' is as limp as a soggy spliff the ragged morning after.
