Alright, the title pretty much says it all on this topic. However, rather than simply giving your short opinion on an album, these reviews should be more structured and actually helpful. The criteria?
Make sure your review is at least 100 words. This isn't really much, but it gives the reader an idea of what the music style is like and what your opinion of the album is. Also, make sure you've been listening to or have owned the reviewed album for at least two weeks. If you don't know the album, what's the point in giving a review?
This topic is designed to get members to help other members understand and come to like each other's musical tastes. Also, it gives everyone a chance to show their love for a particular album and artist.
Alright, let's see what someone comes up with. I'll put a few in myself, of course. Enjoy.

Train Of Thought- Dream Theater
Favourite album of all time.
You can tell each song wasn't just thrown together for the sake of making money. For these guys, writing songs is what they do. They do an awesome job of it. Crazy guitar solos, insane drumming, awesome lyrics. A very heavy feel to it, but it lightens up in a few of the songs. It's generally a very good album overall.
10/10

Two Lefts Don't Make A Right...But Three Do - Relient K
Besides having an irritatingly long title, this album rocks. It's probably my favorite out of all of them. I can't really pick a favorite track, or even 4 of them. Everything seems to fit together no matter how random the subject matter. They delve into everything from amusement parks to forest fires to God. The heavier tracks like Forward Motion, Trademark, and From End to End really, rock, while the lighter ones like Getting into You and Gibberish are fun. The throwaway track is...weird, and the "hidden track" at the end of Jefferson Aero Plane is great. Speaking of Jefferson Aero Plane, it's one of my favorite closers, right behind Deathbed. The rest of the songs are great, creating an awesome listening experience.
BTW, I fell asleep to the last 4 tracks and woke up to the first 6 or so for over 3 months, and I still love it.
9.7 - Near perfect.
