One of techno's prime trendsetters, Moby flashed surprising rock chops on the Joy Division tribute Means to an End in 1995. Here he abandons the dance floor completely for a convincing stroll through a multitude of guitar-based styles. "Come on Baby" is the man's idea of trad rock, "Someone to Love" explodes like the best hardcore, and "Face It" is a swelling progressive epic. Animal Rights also includes Moby's ode to his roots, a cover of Mission of Burma's "That's When I Reach for My Revolver." --Jeff Bateman

Customer Reviews:

this is some of moby's best work. it really is. .......2007-05-05

when i first listened to animal rights (a very long time ago), i couldn't even get through half of it. it was so loud and angry and what was he thinking? a few years later, i popped it in again and i was completely blown away by it. it is incredibly emotional, raw, sexy and relevant. i have most definitely listened to animal rights twice as much as play. play is pleasant and wonderful, but animal rights jars my very soul and makes me FEEL.

I love this one.......2007-04-10

This is the perfect marriage of heavy and soft via Moby. Who knew that the little electronica man had metal in him?

It's amazing, and remains my favorite Moby album by far. "Face It" is the best!

Just when you thought you heard it all..........2005-08-24

Moby badly wants you to like Animal Rights, it's obvious. When he compiled a list on Amazon.com of recommended listening, he included it (here's your horn Moby, now go toot it)! On the inside liner notes he writes "Please listen to animal rights in its entirety at least once." So if you read between the lines, it appears that Moby wants you to give Animal Rights special attention.

The peculiar thing about this is that if there is a single Moby album that I cannot make it through in its entirety, it's this one. Animal Rights is more conducive to small doses. You're not going to drink a whole gallon of 2% milk at once are you? You see my point.

I have to applaud Moby for challenging his audience though. His previous album, Everything Is Wrong, scored numerous favorable reviews as the electronica genre was about to boom in America. Remixes were popping up in clubs and parties everywhere and Moby was everyone's favorite underground DJ. So it took guts to make an album like Animal Rights which is wrought with speed metal that sounds like it was recorded after a full day of Vivarin and coffee. The guitars are primal, the drums margin on migraine, and the vocals are, to put it politely, melodic screaming.

Of course, Animal Rights does its best to stay as musical as possible while it beats you over the head with its angst. There are moments of sparse arrangement, such as Now I Let It Go and Anima, that make you wish Moby would try this just a little more often. Alone, Old, and Living sound like the instrumentals that could have been lifted from latter albums like Play or 18, albeit with a more passive-aggressive production job. His cover of That's When I Reach For My Revolver is a treat too, keeping the rock n roll in steady check for once.

But as fresh as Animal Rights sounds, it can be just as arduous. Sure, just as Someone To Love comes at you like a ton of bricks, you may think it's cool. Like, wow man! Moby is cranking up the electric and fuzz guitars, and it's all totally in my face! Rock on! But after 16 tracks and 73 minutes of this kind of thing, you want this one-trick pony to ride into the sunset already.

It's like reading a book printed in all capital letters. IT MAY BE TRYING TO GET A POINT ACROSS, BUT YOU'LL BE DARNED IF YOU CAN MAKE YOUR WAY THROUGH IT.

CONTRASTING MUSIC! Harsh and Soft! Rocks hard too!!!.......2005-08-20

This is my first Moby Album and I bought it because to the track "That's when I Reach for my Revolver". I was surprised upon listening to it and it's kind of fun ride of emotional settings. Harsh and Heavy tracks intersparsed with Mellow and Soft. If you're eclectic then you'll love it all! Here is an album for the soft hearted (Techno New Age)as well as for the Rock freaks (Sort of Industrail Trash what ever). Buy it and see the prodigy out of Moby burst to your ear. For the Dance affeccionado this is not for ya, but give it a try you might like it!!!

Moby goes Metal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2005-04-08

Rare, very rare piece in Moby s catalogue, in the days were Animal Rigths were recorded Moby stated that he left listening techno and electronic music for a while and started to listen Metal and Hard and wanted to do something different , the final result is this collection of tracks loaded of dense sounds, chaotic vocals and adrenaline, recordings are not overproduced, you can even somethimes listen strings scratch , static sound , and echoes that reflect some lack of care in the details but you can be certain that all this is part of the album concept and sound, that have the intention to own a dirty and jamming atmosphere, please check "thats when i reach for my revolver", Animal Rigths would be definitelly the only album i recommend from the descendent of the author of Moby Dick

Animal Rights and its bonus CD.......2006-09-30

I will keep this short, Animal Rights is Moby returning to his rock roots as a lot of these songs are punk-oriented. Not a lot of people had much respect for this album because it is so UP AND DOWN, which is true if you have the US version which contains a few tracks from the bonus CD that this version contains. I had respect for this album because it was, believe it or not, something pleasant to hear when I wanted to move towards something with more anger and emotion. The real TREAT lies with the bonus CD (Little Idiot). I remember getting this version of Animal Rights when Amazon only had about two listings and I took the cheapest out of the one of two still new copies. I already had the US version so I kept the bonus disc and lent the LE version to someone else. Little Idiot holds some of Moby's most rare ambient tracks, inlcuding a different version of 'Love Song For My Mom' using more of the quiet/soothing keyboard melodies instead of the violin playing. This has to be some of his best ambient work since his other ambient bonus cd in his recent album, Hotel. If you can find this used in great condition or even new at a low price, get it when you have the chance. That's my review, thanks !

Moby is NOT a little idiot!.......2002-03-17

He's a little strange though. Fed up with the dance music scene, Richard M. Hall decided to go back to his punk roots and produced this album. It's pretty good to, if you like Moby's rock angle. All you disco bunnies should run away and hide though.

It's odd that this, the UK version of Animal Rights (released several months before the US version) has a slightly different track list to its American counterpart. Well, not so much odd, as just plain annoying.

Let's get one thing straight: the US 16-track version IS better than this 12-track version. But the bonus here is, well, the bonus disc, Little Idiot, which has some of Moby's most ambient music on it. The only word to describe the music is "beautiful". You just have to hear it for yourself. It compliments the thrashing sound of disc 1 exceedingly well.

There is also one track on the Animal Rights disc which is not on the US version: "My Love Will Never Die".

So, which do you get? The undoubtedly superior 16-track US version, which doesn't come with Little Idiot, or the not-so-good UK 12-track version, which has one of Moby's finest ambient moments as a bonus CD? Not sure? Do what I did: get both this version AND the 16-track US version! Then you will have both versions of the album AND the fantastic bonus disc "Little Idiot".

Oh, and this gets five stars BECAUSE it has Little Idiot included. Otherwise, it would get three (and the US version four). Confused? Me too.

No No No !!!.......2002-03-11

First, sorry for my so "inadequate" english.
Buy absolutly the other first : it was the one that i knew, and was so happy finding the 2 record version... but waht a pity... i prefer 1000 times the 1 record 16 tracks version... But not available in France, so i bought the US Version... so much better... no comparaison... the tracks sequency, mixing, etc... my friends have the same oponion... only buy this 2 records version to complete the other, not the contrary. Then it will be fair.

both disks are great.......2001-05-30

As it's already been said, this is a double cd. The first disk consists of mostly punk rock escapades with some good guitar riffs in between to take them into other levels but never losing a slightly sampled/electronically distorted sound. The second is an ambient disk with calm, relaxing but mournful melodies, simple but very beautiful. Listen with caution though, because it can get a bit boring if abused. All in all i think this is great recording both because of the standalone quality of each of the disks and because of the beautiful contrast you get by putting them together.

two very different disks.......2000-06-02

If you are going to buy "Animal Rights," this is the version you should get. It comes with an extra CD titled "Little Idiot," unavailable, as far as I know, on its own. Yes the first disk is evrything everyone has already said, but I bought it for the second disk- a subtle ambient synthesizer work of 9 lyricless pieces. Soothing and peaceful. In other words, a direct contrast of the Animal Rights CD. You are cheating yourself out of half of the story buying the "domestic" version. Go ahead and be a little daring, splurge for the import.

Product Description

Wendy Flowers Flower Power CD creates a 60s musical vibe for todays families. It contains original, uplifting folk-rock songs with positive messages for young people. Themes include peace, brotherhood, freedom, hope, individuality, imagination, community, activism, the environment and animal rights. The aim is to help kids understand that they CAN make a difference. Also featured is a cover of Rick Nelsons Easy To Be Free. The sound calls to mind the Byrds, Mamas & Papas, Simon & Garfunkel and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young Wendy is best remembered from her cult classic, Wendy & Bonnies Genesis, recorded in 1969 with her sister. Wendys latest effort, the Flower Power CD, actually was sparked by her husband Paul Freemans award-winning screenplay of the same name. Its a heartwarming comedy-drama about a forgotten protest singer. Huey Lewis, who was interested in playing the lead at one time, suggested that Wendy and Paul complete all the snippets of songs that were sprinkled into the script. So it became an album, original songs reflecting '60s ideals for 21st century families. The album offers a homemade charm. Recorded on a miniscule budget, Wendy relied on musician friends and students. The children in her Bay Area music classes have already been enjoying the songs. Now these uplifting tunes are available to the public. Theyre designed to appeal to all ages. While this material is highly entertaining, its also effective as a resource for parents and teachers. A portion of the proceeds from Flower Power goes to Free the Children. Free the Children is the largest network of children helping children through education in the world, having directly impacted over 1 million children in 45 countries through its projects.

Album Description

Now that Moby's begun to finally to get his just reward with the commercial & critical success of his album 'Play', this budget-priced import-only box set is the perfect supplement for any & all newer fans to discover how long he's been making outstanding

Customer Reviews:

wish I hadn't missed this.........2001-08-08

I bought each of these CDs for about $... each and I really wish I had known about this. This assortment does a good job of showcasing different aspects of Moby's music. Animal Rights has a lot of hard rock songs, and is probably my least favorite Moby CD (which doesn't mean it's bad). However, songs like "That's When I Reach for my Revolver" have excellent lyrics to make it worth while. Everything is Wrong is a fantastic album with softer, moving music and I Like to Score is great, with music even people that aren't devoted Moby fans will know.

a valuable gem for all moby fans.......2000-08-11

This boxed set is for everybody who enjoys listening to Moby'smusic. For long-time fans, it is a must-get collectors' item. And for newer audiences who was introduced to his music by listening to 'Play', it should be a even bigger delight. For those who are new to his music, the three CDs included('Everything is Wrong','Animal Rights','I like to Score') are all excellent albums, displaying his diverse musical talent. But some of you might hesitate, saying 'Is paying [the price] worth it?'. Of course it is. Remember the fact that it's a 3 CD set, and if you know that you will eventually get the albums, it's a much better value than paying... for each of them [individually]. All the long-time fans would know that having these CDs is alot better than getting the latest 'Mobysongs' which boasts to be his best of the '90s, but is really not. And all the songs on the CD(except 'Move') will be found on the three albums, with much more of other better tracks. Other interesting thing to note is that this European version of 'Animal Rights' is slightly different than the US version. It contains only 11 tracks, compared to 16 track US version, but it has 2 tracks that is not included in the US version(a good reason for everybody to get the CD). The color design on the case is slightly different, too. In conclusion, this is a essential set for everybody!
