AndrewKSep 9, 2005So just because lame music review sites in some drunken stupor rate this amazing album 30-70 it gets an 80????? That is incredibly stupid as this album is amazing. A tip for reviewing an album is to actually listen to ALL songs instead of the two widely advertised ones..... Anyway woohoo pitchfork media, best music site ever

LawrencePMar 7, 2005I think this will be one of the best LP's of the 90's. Spin magazine doesn't know what the hell they are talking about. It wouldn't surprise me if the same magazine praises their next LP!

JohannBFeb 21, 2008It's an absolute masterpiece. If you grew up in the Rocky Mountains then you get it. Isaac and company capture what it was like to grow up and to come of age in those barren wastelands. I'm still a huge "Lonesome..." fan, but this edges it out.

DylanSOct 21, 2004Absolutely amazing production, and as always lyrics that make you think. This is a strange trip of an album i highly suggest checking it out if you like music that pushes boundaries.

NagillyBumpkinAug 11, 2005The people who thought this album was emotionless couldn't be farther from the truth. Apparently their ears just aren't equipped to hear Brock's emotional depth. It's there - it may take a little effort on the listener's part, but music that requires effort on the part of the listener is the most worthwhile.

maxmJun 29, 2004i got the album in november of 2002 as a present. i have been listing to it almost every day since then and it never got old. and it makes me so angry to hear that spin would give such a good album the rating that they did. this album could save the world.

drewkSep 13, 2005This is one of my three favorite albums of all-time (OK Computer & Kid A being the others). Spin magazine should be taken to the woodshed for giving this album such a poor review. M&A over time will come to be considered one the true masterpieces of the last 20 years. Unbelievable.

A sort of concept album about cold and distant places--creepy sound effects and odd nods to science and space abound--these 15 songs rarely settle into one place for long, opening with the characteristically potent "3rd Planet" before veering off into weird cacophony, jarring interludes, mellow meanderings, and general tunelessness.

The music on The Moon & Antarctica is as lonely and desolate as the title suggests...
-
PunctureClocking in at an hour, and incorporating much schizophrenic style-hopping, this is far from the concession to one-dimensional economy often required for a major-label debut. [#47, p.53]
