Nice review and I wondered which version of the album that you'd put up. I agree that Desolation Boulevard was the band's masterpiece and the US version is the album to get if you're only going to get just one. Sweet Funny Adams is also a classic album and not too far behind it.

You asked for constructive criticism, well you're reviews overall are fine, but could be brightened up with say the album sleeve and even a Youtube vid link to some of the best songs, I always find readers like to have some pics and visuals to go on

Also you're rating system of 7.3 and saying you would've given it 8.8 are I find pointless ratings, as what does the .3 and .8 actually mean. I would be better just to do a straight 1-10 or 1-5 with .5 only on all the numbers.

I've done heaps of album reviews on my journal thread.
