5.0 classic | AtavanHalen | October 11th 08 | Diorama has seen a lot of praise in the six years since its release. It has been praised as a great Australian album, Silverchair's best and even a masterpiece. Whilst all these are certainly true, there's more to it than simply this.
This album has evolved into a cornerstone of modern Australian culture.
Encompassing nearly every imaginable emotion and establishing the full-album experience that songwriters twice the age still struggle to achieve, the disturbed genius of Daniel Johns created a visionary technicolour dream. With his two best friends by his side, Silverchair created not only a timeless work, but an album that every Australian album since would be compared and contrasted.
As it stands, no album stands greater in Australian music history than Diorama.

5.0 classic | olddirtydoggy | December 27th 06 | Musical technicolour is the best word used I read about this record, it's one of the most daring albums i've ever heard. Its the kind of change that will alienate a large proportion of your fans. When listening to something as fresh and exciting as this you have to start with an open mind and let the music take you somewhere new. Arrangements 10/10 Don't get stuck in your ways, let this band take you somewhere new.

4.5 superb | Jim | November 30th 06 | I've had a Silverchair surge recently. I've always been partially into them, and am a long-time fan of Neon Ballroom, but it's only recently that I've decided to fully delve into the rest of their collection.
Needless to say, Daniel Johns is an amazing song-writing talent, and this album perfectly represents his prowess in the studio. I think all of their albums have something to offer, but I find Diorama to be something really special if you want a musical experience a little different, but still hard-rock at heart.
Favourite tracks are probably Across the Night, The Greatest View and The Lever. It's solid throughout though, and I'd recommend it entirely.
