    This Machine
    This is a subdued, atmospheric affair, rooted in bangs-in-the-face, black-polish-on-the-fingernails '80s rock.

    All Things Bright and Beautiful
    All Things Bright and Beautiful, 12 sterilized laptop clunkers that are indeed bright but far from beautiful. There's no maturity in sight.

    Eye Legacy
    With a slapdash track list that intersperses previously unreleased cuts with lightly retooled versions of tunes from Left Eye's import-only solo debut, Eye Legacy still feels like an after-the-fact throw-away, one that makes you wonder just what its creators were attempting to say about their dearly departed friend.

    The Devil's Rain
    The Devil's Rain is chock full of good, campy horror business.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Lulu
    One must reconcile with the absurd fact that Lulu exists before realizing how genuinely brilliant it is--when it's working.
    • 44 Metascore

    Last of a Dyin' Breed
    On Dyin' Breed, they stoop to some depressing new lows.
