• The Replacements - Tim (from Rolling Stone)
• Released in 1985, Tim caught a great American garage band stretching out, working Big Star pop and Fifties-style rock into a mix of punky abandon and regular-dude romanticism. This version — reissued along with three other 'Mats albums, none of which is quite as tuneful as Tim — brightens the sound and adds six bonus cuts, including a bare-bones version of "Here Comes a Regular," Paul Westerberg's moving acoustic ballad about directionless barflies. Rarely did Westerberg write so poignantly,...

• The Replacements - Tim / Pleased to Meet Me / Don't Tell a Soul / All Shook Down (from Dusted Magazine)
• The dynamic that fueled the Replacements' success can be gleaned from the fate of the original members. One is a journeyman songwriter, one has left music, one of them is in Guns 'n' Roses, and one is dead from drinking. They were reckless and natural. Of the iconic '80s bands profiled in Our Band Could Be Your Life, the Replacements were the most musically conservative. Even their thrashiest album has blues licks and bar-band moves. But they were the only flirts in the bunch, the only ones crea......

• Replacements - Rhino Reissues (from The Phoenix)
• Rhino's second and concluding batch of Replacements reissues (the first four albums were released earlier this year) charts the Minneapolis band's Great Descent from the heights of rock-and-roll nihilism to the pit of MOR blah. Between the release of Tim (1985), the 'Mats' greatest record and a raggedy piss-take on success, love, and post-whatever, and All Shook Down (1990), a Paul Westerberg solo album in everything but name, lead guitarist Bob Stinson was made a scapegoat for the band's chemic......

• Yes, kids, jumping to a major label used to be a significant financial, political and spiritual act; here, after four cherished albums on a Midwestern indie label, one of the great American rock bands enacts one of the great American cautionary tales. On 1985's Tim, the Replacements' volatile, ramshackle bar-rock cocktail of defiance, rage, lust, ­frivolity and desperation survives the jump to Sire, but the ­façade is already crumbling: Sad-sack happy-hour messiah Paul Westerberg sums up the ...

• replacements - Stink [EP] (from ultimate-guitar)
• Stink, is the second release from minneapolis band, The Replacements and this review will cover the re-issue, with bonus tracks. The album is primarily a punk rock album, however it does flirt with sounds of other genres, such as on the track 'White And Lazy', which features a bluesy/country influenced sound at times. The sound can only be described as raw, or under produced to the benefit of the record. This allows the energy and sincerity of The Replacements and Paul Westerberg's vocal to shin......

• The Replacements - Let It Be (Deluxe Version) (from Rolling Stone)
• "Label wants a hit/and we don't give a shit!" Replacements frontman Paul Westerberg once sang. Yet the real miracle of his legendarily self-destructive band is that it created masterful pop in spite of itself. Success wrested heroically from seemingly inescapable failure: that was the Replacements' magic, as the recent reissue of their first four releases reaffirms. It still seems impossible that the most indelible of the four, 1984's Let It Be, came from these booze-crazed gutter punks. Along w......
