Reviews

Jim and Greg save you the time of that pesky listening process, by boiling down their reviews to three easy to use phrases:
Buy It!, Burn It! or Trash It!

Download Sound Opinions Buy it, Burn it, and Trash it badges

  • Buy it! ...This record is worth your hard earned money.
  • Burn it! ...There are a few good tracks here, but not worth the full price....try a downloading service, or (cough), another method.
  • Trash it! ...Pretty self-explanatory!
