As fans of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy know, each film exists in two versions: the theatrical one and the extended one that appeared on DVD. This luxurious box set--which also comes with a detailed essay on the movie's musical themes--features the full extended score, so many cues not on the CDs of the individual movies are included. Granted, the majority of listeners will be perfectly happy with the shorter versions of the scores--it's a safe bet that most people can live without hearing, say, Ian McKellen's 35-second-long ditty "The Road Goes Ever On" at the beginning of "Bag End," or Viggo Mortensen's performance of his own composition, "The Song of Lúthien," within the track "The Nazgûl." But if you're a completist and/or a devotee of Howard Shore's pounding tympani and overwhelming choral compositions (featured particularly prominently on disc 3, a large chunk of which is devoted to a battle scene), then this set is a dream come true. Audiophiles should note that the fourth disc, a DVD, offers the score in Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. Fire up those speakers so the whole shire can hear. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Album Description

An epic film score receives epic treatment with The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings. Released for the first time on CD, the complete score for the first film in the Lord of the Rings trilogy contains more than 180 minutes of music on three CDs plus a DVD-Audio disc of the entire score in Surround Sound. Breathtaking and majestic, the 2001 Oscar and Grammy winning score compsted by Howard Shore also includes Enya's Oscar nominated "May It Be." For fans of any of The Lord of the Rings films, the Fellowship of the Ring/Complete Recordings is an essential experience.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful.......2007-06-15

I picked up this set because I am both a LOTR fan, movies and books and I need music to help me work. There are some tracks that I skipped over, like the short little ditties in the bar, but many of the songs, such as the Elvish chants are easy to get lost in - its just too bad they don't last longer. The packaging really is well done, though the DVD disc was loose when I received it in the mail, but unharmed. I will have to wait until the price on the second set comes down a little more, but I can't wait for ROTK.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2007-06-12

This is by far the editon to get if you loved the lord of the rings soundtrack. It has every song on it from the extended edition. and the DVD-A version is very nice.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Music tracks from Movie.......2007-05-03

Brings the movie back as you listen to the full version of the track.

3 out of 5 stars Complete?.......2007-04-07

This CD collection is wonderful; it has much of the material from the movie that was only included in the extended edition DVD, but it is far from complete. While it does have the complete version of "The Passing of the Elves" and two versions of "The Road Goes Ever On", many of the songs are highly incomplete and inferior to the originals. "Aniron," the theme for Aragorn and Arwen performed by Enya, is incomplete and the lyrics are hard to match to what is being sung. The sound quality for this song is even worse on the accompanying DVD, which is supposed to have all of the music in "superior sound". The song "Prophecy" is reduced to two barely-audible lines and "May It Be" is shortened and different than the original. $60 for this when there are more complete songs on the original soundtrack is ridiculous.

3 out of 5 stars Great Collection, Poor Packaging.......2007-04-03

I realy can't add to what others have said about this set, the music is simply the best LOTR soundtrack collection out there! It is all here, and the contents of this set will make any LOTR fan happy and the music DVD is a great one disc addition if you want to hear the entire score in one sitting (to which I have done a number of times already).
My only complaint is the somewhat flimsy cardboard box that houses the contents of this musical treasure. Mine came damaged, and considering the price, I expected better packaging. This is a minor quabble on my part and NO, I havent returned it due to the fact that the music itself Is what I truly treasure, It just would have been nicer to have recieved it undamaged.

Washington, D.C.'s Thievery Corporation purvey a very mellow, deliberately international mixture of sounds that might be called "lounge music"--not in the kitschy sense, but in the sense of a laid-back local bar (much like the one the duo happens to run) with no dance floor. Rob Garza and Eric Hilton are professed admirers of Brazilian music, and they're determined to inject as much warmth into electronic music as possible. The Mirror Conspiracy is quite a musical travelogue, starting in Jamaica with "Treasures." This dubby opening track, which features vocalist Brother Jack, is quite reminiscent of the start of Swayzak's Himawari. Next up is "Le Monde," a quiet, wah-wah-inflected song featuring a chanteuse named Lou Lou. She reappears later on the somewhat more uptempo "Shadows of Ourselves," which, despite the title, is also sung in French. "The Hong Kong Triad" sounds like a tip of the hat to Shaft-styled soundtrack music. Elsewhere, it's off to India for two sitar-flavored tracks with a similarly laidback groove that gets a bit closer to techno, one of which, "Lebanese Blonde" (hash? a woman?), has been released as a single. Brazil gets its due on the densely percussive "Air Batucada," the more bossa nova-like "So Com Voce," and an instrumental titled "Samba Tranquille." Fans of this style are sure to be pleased. --Bob Bannister

Album Description

2000 release for the extremely talented and unsung DJ duo. An amalgamation of reggae dubplates, lounge muzak, breaks, beats and bossanova. 2000 release. Standard jewel case with slipcase.

5 out of 5 stars Thievery Bliss.......2007-05-20

I typically respect peoples' opinions regarding reviews. However, I have to take exception to the "alla fishkop no.1" review. The review talks about the lack of originality and the "same as 90% of the chill out around". I notice you don't share any thoughts about other Thievery albums you own in comparison to this one...Oh I know, you probably don't own any other albums by them...that's why!!! This is a definitive album for a genre that is filled with wannabees that try to cash in on few talented people in the business. The reason why it "sounds like a lot of other chill albums out there", is because this album has been around since 2000 and has been a benchmark for all other artists since then trying to capture the essence of this sound. Thievery has been spinning quality tracks since the late 90's and will continue to dominate this genre for a long time. I see that you're from NY....chances are, you probably think Louie Devito spinning at the Sound Factory is the sh**!!. Don't give reveiews on music you don't know poseur!!

5 out of 5 stars Stealing Time For Reflection.......2007-04-12

If you come to Thievery Corporation expecting anything other than downbeat dubs and unruffled rhythms, expect to be disappointed. This D.C.-based duo of Garza and Hilton are experts at sampling sounds from all over the world (primarily India, Brazil, France, and Jamaica) and building out of them a lounge ambience that is deep and drool-worthy.

You could say that the songs are derivative, evidence of artistic talent used to trace old drawings, but in an age of sampling, loops, remixes and homages, "derivative" seems like less and less of an insult (these guys, anyway, revel in it, if you haven't noticed the name of their group). These songs are, everyone one of them, brilliant in a warm, enveloping, devilish way, music for secrets. These are the songs to which hair is tucked behind ears, candles flicker on dull veneers, hands -- under tables -- are placed gently on foreign knees. Its the kind of album that makes you believe anyone, listening to it, could be a good dancer if they just let the notes take over.

The Mirror Conspiracy brings to the sometimes harsh light of electronica a honey-hot glow. The boys in Thievery Corporation aren't trying to pull off any acrobatic stunts or massive implosions of sound, but they do execute some dizzying and hypnotic sleight-of-hand. It's a dreamwave of an album, a great score for seduction, and the tender taunt of temptation. Give Thievery Corporation a chance, and they may just steal your soul.

2 out of 5 stars Suprisingly dissapointed..........2007-04-12

I've purchased this CD based on huge popularity of previous albums on radio,good reviews on Amazon, plus this album always comes up as one of the bestsellers in Chill/Jazz/Electronica genre sections, of which I'm a big fan. Well, I was highly dissapointed after listening for 10-15 minutes, and could barely go through the end. They are not bad, it's good music, but nothing special. The sound and beats are too familiar from 90% of other Chill bands. I did not sense any originality,direction, and movement in any piece. Every piece flows and finishes the same way it starts. Wallpaper,wallpaper, wallpaper. The bottom line is that I've heard this million times before. Even vocals don't help this album. I wouldn't spin this album even if I owned a lounge.

5 out of 5 stars Still my favorite.......2007-04-05

If you bought this album because "Lebanese Blonde" from the "Garden State" soundtrack is on it, congradulations! I first picked this up in 2000, and was blown away! I have bought all thier albums since. This is an excellent album by Thievery Corporation. "The Mirror Conspiracy" still has a special place in my musical collection. This is, to me an album in a classic sense. Meant to be listened to from beginning to end. Incorporating elements of Dub, Reggae, Indian, Bossa Nova makes for an eclectic listening experience. You should put this on for your next coctail party.

5 out of 5 stars Superb chill-out music.......2007-03-16

This album is an essential part of my music library. It is a collection of some of the finest, most tasteful down-tempo music out there to date. Definitely a must-have.

Fellow Californian Mike Love of the Beach Boys is sampled to introduce this latest Offspring release and immediately it's down to business as usual. Which for the Offspring means the best-produced punk rock money can buy. Brendan O'Brien (Pearl Jam) turns the knobs in the producer's chair and he works pure sonic architecture. The guitars crunch with perfectly defined distortion, the drums come down the middle, and--most importantly--singer Dexter Holland is juiced to the max. Though his voice sits in the "whine" range, double tracking and other studio enhancements give the vocals an incredible presence beyond standard range, and Holland works them to convincing effect. "Come Out Swinging" does exactly that. "Want You Bad" recalls the southern California punk pop of the Descendents. "One Fine Day" double-times into both hardcore and a galloping country terrain. Essentially, it's full speed ahead with the pedal to the metal and no airbags in sight. --Rob O'Connor

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars this is a must have!.......2007-02-28

WOW! this record BLEW me away! this is MY favorite offspring record yet. this record went BEYOND my taste of music. Just like the rest of their albums, the offspring writes songs about everyday life.

1. Intro - Kinda pointless, but this band loves to do INTROs at the beginning of all their albums. 5/10

2- Come Out Swinging- This song means alot to me. the singing is great, and Dexter did a nice job with the vocals in this one. there isnt a part in this song that isnt good. This song has a good message to it that everyone should hear. 10/10

3-Original Prankster- let me tell ya, this song had alot of "action" if you will. Kinda hard to explain, but its a great song. It made me happy to see them trying somthing different with their music equipment. they put alot of effort into it and the beat is great, vocals are great. 10/10

4- Want You Bad- a few people i know that eathier dont know or dont like the offspring, they like this song. Another PERFECT song. this was one of their greatest hits. The vocals were really catchy too. "Complicated, X rated" "i want you, all tattoed" i love it. 10/10

5- Million Miles Away- When i first got this record, i didnt really listen to this song, and now that i do, it is one of my favorite other then Conspiracy Of One. I really like how they have 2 singers singing 2 different things in one time like at the end. If you listen to this song you would know what im talking about. When Dexter says "i cant take, i cant take" and Noodles and Greg are saying "looking through myself wanting to pretend" at the same time. Its another great song 10/10

6- Dammit, I changed again- This song, including "all along" "conspiracy Of One" "Come Out Swinging" all sound the same. but if you really listen to this song, you would see that this song has a meaning to it like all other songs i just mentioned. What im trying to say is that this song is "just another song" 8/10

7- Living In Chaos- im my opinion, this song is ok. not too bad, others might love it, but this song really doesnt appeal to me like most of the other do. Although i must admit this song had a good toon to it. 8/10

8- Special Delivery- well, ya know what they say. Every album has a song on it that isnt good. When i First heard this song, i thought it was another perfect song. Untill the point where it says "OGGA SACCA" 20 times, that totally ruined the entire song. but the vocals and lyrics are awsome other then that. 3/10

9-One Fine Day- This song remindes me of Green Day and blink 182 where the vocals are hard to understand in the chorus where dexter talked really fast. this is a VERY addicting song after you listen to it once or twice. 11/10

10- All Along- Kind of a short song, but it has a meaning to it. the vocals cant be better. " ALL ALONG, think i really knew, it was standing with the words unspoken" It sounds ALOT like Conspiracy Of One, but it still is a good song. 6/10

11-Denal, Revised- i never really liked this song. but i did listen to it once and found this song to be dull and boring. i dunno i guess this song really didnt catch my attention. The only advice i have is dont listen to this song if you are a hardcore rock fan like me. 0/10

12- Vultures- The SAME EXACT Thing as "denal, revised" .... dull and boring. if you are a hardcore rock fan dont listen to this song. 0/10

13- Conspiracy Of One- My favirote song on this album. "nobody wins, nobody hears us fall, nobody wins when its done, conspiracy of one" is a catchy phrase. this song is the main title of this album. 15/10


Overall Rating, 9.9/10 - Some boring parts and songs but its different then all the other albums by the offspring. love it.

4 out of 5 stars my mistake, it's a 4.75/5!!!!!!!!!.......2007-02-25

i listened to a few songs by them once and then i felt nothing rise in my music taste. so i put it aside and listened to smash. after that, i decided i wanted to hear want you bad again. it finished and then million miles away started and i loved it. then dammit, i changed again came, and i loved it as well. and i was blown away by one fine day because it was really good and reminded me of Green Day, which i love as well. vultures brought back the awesome tune of dirty magic. i love every single song on it except maybe come out swinging, it just doesn't appeal to me so much. the artwork in the lyric book is cool, also. buy this!!!!!!!

3 out of 5 stars not exactly their best, but still good........2007-02-20

very short album, about 38 minutes. it's a little more pop than i expected, but it's mostly punk. the best song on it is either original prankster or want you bad or one fine day. by this after you get smash and ixnay on the hombre and americana and ignition and their self titled one. get splinter at about the same time you get this.

5 out of 5 stars Another Good Release!.......2006-09-02

Conspiracy of One is very similar in sound as well as rating to Americana. Both have great songs mixed in with some okay ones. Still no release yet has been as good as Smash even though each album released so far still satisfies. The album is just another good release by the band. My favorite tracks are "Living In Chaos", "Special Delivery", "Denial, Revisited", and "Vultures". Those are my favorites even though there are still really good other tracks on the album.

2. Come Out Swinging - 9/10
3. Original Prankster - 10/10
4. Want You Bad - 10/10
5. Million Miles Away - 10/10
6. Dammit, I Changed Again - 6.5/10
7. Living In Chaos - 10/10
8. Special Delivery - 10/10
9. One Fine Day - 8/10
10. All Along - 8.5/10
11. Denial, Revisited - 10/10
12. Vultures - 10/10
13. Conspiracy One - 8/10

Overall: 92% A-

I don't know what it is about the band but they just seem to keep releasing good albums. Maybe the newer ones aren't as ground-breaking as Smash but they are pretty good either way. If you like the singles from this release or other Offspring works you should probably check this one out.

4 out of 5 stars My first Offspring CD........but definitely not my last.......2006-08-10

I've wanted to check The Offspring out for quite some time and finally got a chance to. After listening to the CD for the first time I thought it was pretty decent, I also like Green Day and thought that Conspirancy of One even sounded a little better than Green Day. After about my 5th listen to the CD i realized how genius it was. Track #8 "Special Delivery" is my favorite, it's one of those songs that just pump you up.

I can't wait to get another Offspring CD and keep listening to their music. If you're into a Punkish sound between Foo Fighters and Green Day you'll want to listen to this. Now go get it.

Amazon.com

More than just a straight nu-metal collection, Sonic Jihad is a journey, lyrically and musically, through human emotions. The luscious, slo-mo cinematic strains of "Casualty," with its dragging beats and Bond-esque strings, is an homage to longing. The Phil Spector-inspired production of "You and Your Friend" and the ultra hi-tech aching of the Cure's "Love Song" encapsulate love and obsession. And the concoction of drum & bass, cheesy lounge elements, and demonic guitars on "Somebody Hates You" makes a convincing stab at--not surprisingly--hate. And their distressed and blissfully aching cover of the Smiths' "How Soon Is Now" is nothing short of staggering. With femme fatale Tobey Torres vocals in the fore and the entire group creating drama and attitude, Sonic Jihad is the triumph of passion over technology. --Dan Gennoe

If only for their cover of "Lovesong". The way she sings it sends shivers throughout my body (not that the original doesn't, I just happen to like this one too). Like most, I love "Breed" and "Vulcan". I do not however perticularly care for their cover of "How Soon Is Now?". And I'm not much for the 1 or 2 other songs that sound uber pop either. These days most will by a cd for 1 song they really like, well I'm here to tell you this cd will have at least a few songs that will make you crave listening to them repeatedly, so it's worth the cash in my book:)

4 out of 5 stars Nobody loves you more than they ought to.......2006-04-23

While not particularly original in a few parts on this CD, Snake River Conspiracy still manage to pull of an entertaining listen. I'd be lying if I told you that this is all Snake River Conspiracy because its so easy to see influences from other bands who are completely sure of their music (NIN and Collide are probably the major influences).

Comparisons aside, Sonic Jihad is an engaging CD from start to finish. Tobey is a great vocalist with a seemingly good voice (rarely does she go all out and sing), and has just enough attitude to keep things fresh. At times the music is nothing short of cartoonish, other times there are real signs of greatness. For me, I like this CD's more industrial moments than the others because on songs like those is when you see real potential in Tobey's voice. Aside from the absolutely wretched Somebody Hates You, this CD feels complete, like nothing was left out.

The covers included seem to get a lot of attention, and rightfully so, they make for some of the more standout songs included. SRC's take on The Cure's Lovesong was a nice freshening up of an already great song, and with the female vocals it almost feels like she gave the song a different perspective. How Soon Is Now? is the other cover and is probably one of my favorite songs featured. Jason did a great job on the music keeping it interesting throughout.

My favorite songs are You And Your Friends, Lovesong, Act Your Age, Oh Well, and How Soon Is Now?. Sonic Jihad did take me a few listens to really start to grasp what was going on, that could just be me though. The lyrics are straight-forward and brutally honest which is missing from music these days, and the music makes for a great backdrop. So basically, fans of NIN and Collide should probably find more than a few things to like about this CD, and hopefully we'll be hearing more from SRC in the future.

5 out of 5 stars Love the whole cd.......2006-02-25

Got into this band by the song Breed, and was amazed that I love the whole album. The lead singer chick is awesome. Love the covers they do. This cd is great for blasting in your car so others next to you hear this incredible band, and her screaming vocals is also a great cd to listen to if you have fight with your boyfriend to get some aggresion out by singing with her. Can't wait till they make another album.

5 out of 5 stars ROCK ON!!.......2005-11-14

2 out of 5 stars It has two songs.......2006-06-11

This album sucks. It has two songs on the entire album and they are get money and players anthem. They are only hot because big is on them. Even big admitted when he was alive that junior mafia wasn't hungry. When you aren't hungry, you don't make good music. The lyrics are weak and they have subpar beats. I hope they never make another album.

    Bandleader Robert Fisher doesn't just write about the corners of the soul where death, revenge, transcendence, and spiritual crisis confuse human will. On the Willard Grant Conspiracy's brilliant sixth album, Fisher conjures them in grand sonic chiaroscuro: bright and brooding textural arrangements that pit swirling guitar feedback against wistful violins and layers of keyboards, percussion, and voices. The grandest instrument of all is Fisher's Jim Morrison-like baritone, which perfectly expresses his dark poetry--especially in the nine-minute title number, a tale of blasphemy and retribution as arresting and expansive as the Doors' "The End." Well-tailored production and experimentalism take this disc a few steps away from the roots/Americana foundation of the California-based group's earlier recordings. Nonetheless, a cover of Dylan's "Ballad of a Thin Man" fits right in, thanks to the fractured backbone provided by guitarist Jason Victor. Steve Wynn cowrote the lyrics to the survivor's song "Flying Low," and John Dragonetti, Blake Hazard, and other indie-rock darlings make cameos. But Let It Roll is obviously the product of Fisher's own strong, singular vision, and could win the Willard Grant Conspiracy a following of the same heroic proportions they already enjoy in Europe. --Ted Drozdowski

    5 out of 5 stars Pure Psychedelia.......2006-07-14

    This is Boris' most psychedelic release. It is also one of their magnum opus albums. By now, you may or may not know that Boris is a chameleon of rock and metal. And I mean that in the most honorable way. The way Led Zeppelin could play blissed out blues and then rock a punk riff, and then melt minds with rock straight from the factory floor yet still remain Led Zep, so is Boris an ever changing, musically adept trio, that scorches through whatever they wish to at the time and leaves their mark on it. Like Zorro, they are the swashbuckling heroes of rock and roll, but they wield guitars and drums instead of a skinny little sword.

    So by calling Feedbacker one of their magnum opus albums, I mean to bring light to the fact that they have a few albums that play out as one long hour long song. They have albums that are more track by track oriented, such as their latest album Pink, but albums like Absolutego, Flood, Amplifier Worship, and this album Feedbacker, are musical mission statements...

    I can spare youthe details if every album and tell you that A) they are all different from each other, and B) you should look them up and read the reviews that people wrote, and finally C) they are all amazing in their own way.

    Feedbacker though is easily the most psychedelic of these albums. It is a 5 part ride through some of the most overwhelming feedback swells and also some of the most drugged out space rock on this, the darkest side of the moon. Yes the Floyd reference is there for a reason. This is a wonderful complete album bookended with feedback and filled with soaring gorgeous songs with a weight that belies this worlds own gravity. Melodies are buried deep in the fabric of sound that Boris has created and it takes some patience and a good sound system (or headphones) to appreciate how deep and moving this piece can be. In terms of tone, the guitars sound old, and the heaviness never reaches the peaks of Amplifier Worship or Absolutego, but it is still heavy. Heavy in terms of depth and height. They plumb the lowest of all bass depths as they always do and juxtapose the rumble with screeching feedback, all amps running far into the red threatening total destruction of your ears. Walls of sound wrap suffocatingly around you until you feel you cant breath until you are released into a bubbling ether of acid hazed psychedlic guitar solos and warbly fuzzy drones.

    The album is extremely ambitious and it fulfills its purpose laid out in the title "Feedbacker". It has a third eye opening quality to it that would make Tool jealous and Sunn 0))) proud. If you dig this, then you must go and check out their other stuff, because as well as their magnum opuses, they have a few albums based more on a rock and roll, sabbath/ motorhead style, as well as some incredibly dense sound experiments and a slew of collaborations and vinyl only releases that will keep you interested for years....enjoy.

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Value No Matter What Way You Look At It.........2005-12-17

    I've just recently found the magic that is King Diamond, about 20 years after his solo career started. What I've found is the most unique and true-to-form artist around. I traveled down to the cd store hoping for at least Abigail, but I found much more. I found Them/Conspiracy two-pack, Abigail and Puppet Master and didn't hesitate for a second to purchase all of them at once. I would have payed 15 bucks seperate for each cd included in this set, but finding only this for 15 dollars, how could I say no?!
    Taken as a whole, I only have a few complaints about the set, and they are pretty miniscule. My first complaint is that the booklet contains no lyrics, so that's a downside, since it is sometimes hard to understand what King is saying. The last complaint is that Conspiracy was not as good as I had thought, but it's still good, not as good as THEM though.

    From the start, I had always figured that THEM would be my least favorite King album, but as soon as I listened to it, my mind changed drastically, this is King's absolute best album ever. Not only does it have a very creepy and unique story(not like that's news for King Diamond), but it's overall sound and presentation is unlike any of his other recordings. Though the sound production on THEM is rather weak,It's good, but not very clean like his preceding attempts. Every song here is strong and there is some beautiful musicianship throughout. The track "TEA" perfectly suits the title, with hypnotic flowing notes and soothing and mellow choruses by the King.

    Conspiracy follows up to THEM, but it seems like less attention was placed on story than the previous part of the story. "AT THE GRAVES" seems to drag on for too long, and several of the tracks are rather forgettable. "Sleepless Nights", Victimized, A Visit from the Dead and Cremtation are the strongest point of the album, but the rest don't have the same magic as the afformentioned. But considering the fact that you can get two albums for the price of one is totally worth dishing out 15 bucks for.

    2 out of 5 stars "Rise From the Grave, Little Sister...".......2005-06-21

    Another double-up CD release of these classic King Diamond albums, "Them" & Conspiracy. Although, teaming these two CDs together is no-brainer, it's better you purchase these two releases seperately(if you haven't already got 'em) Most hard-core Diamond fans will undoubtedly have these in their collection. But I guess this product might appeal to fans that are being turned onto the King for the first time.

    But in my opinion, these double-up CD releases are superfulous. It just seems like a feeble attempt from Roadrunner to cash in AGAIN on a artist they barely promoted in the first place...

    5 out of 5 stars Quite Arguably King Diamond's Best Record........2006-07-12

    King Diamond may not get the kudos that Metallica, Megadeth, or Slayer often get. But if you compare King Diamond's "Conspiracy" to Metallica's best ("Ride the Lightening"), Megadeth's best ("Rust In Peace"), or what I consider Slayer's best (be it "Hell Awaits" or "Seasons In the Abyss"), it is clear that King Diamond is the better musician. (1) While Metallica, Megadeth, and Slayer have their abilities, they often tend to hide behind the noise. If King Diamond played the songs on "Conspiracy" on a classical guitar and a piano, THE SONGS WOULD STILL SOUND GOOD. He uses speed and intensity, but he's not hiding behind it. He DOES HAVE impressive knowledge of musical composition. (2) Unlike Metallica, Slayer, or Megadeth, King Diamond DOES KNOW that a keyboard is a crucial element. Even Bon Jovi (whose records people normally buy for the vocals moreso than the music) knows that a keyboard is crucial! Onto the subject at hand. For those of you who don't know this, "Conspiracy" follows the events of "Them" and raises the horror to a frightening level (even for King Diamond's records). With the frightening and intense 'At the Graves,' King meets his sister (who was killed in "Them") and makes plans for her to visit more often. 'Sleepless Nights' turns the music down a notch, but the lyrics are so frightening, and the quiter tone emphasizes that. 'Lies' reintroduces us to Dr. Landau from "Them," and the guitar work is almost hypnotic. 'Visit From the Dead' shows that guitarist Andy LaRoque has classical abilities as Missy makes another appearance and warns King of the danger to come. 'The Wedding Dream' begins with a creepy keyboard movement. We've all heard wedding marches, but this one seems to sound more frightening than sacramental. King learns that his mother and the doctor are planning to marry. 'Amon Belongs To Them' has a slower but still haunting tone as King's fate begins. 'Something Weird' is a well done and creepy instrumental. In 'Victimized,' King's enemies decide his fate, and the musical levels as well as King's famous vocals resume a full blast level. 'Let It Be Done' is creepy dialogue with some subtle and eerie keyboard touches. 'Cremation' is the final track on this horror filled masterpiece and King seems to know that in this case, what he doesn't say is more frightening than what he might say. And just when you think the record is over, King speaks once more to make sure he leaves us in a state of horror. While we might argue that "Abigail II" was not crucial to "Abigail," it is virtually indisputable that "Conspiracy" was a vital sequel to "Them." I'll conclude by saying that if you are not familiar with King Diamond's records, you may do best in the case of "Conspiracy" to read the lyrics in daylight before you listen to the record.

    Love this album, it completes the story started in the album Them. The music is tough, hard, and it gets you pumped. Some parts of the story are kinda sad and if you follow the story you're in for an emotional ride ending up with a big smile.

    5 out of 5 stars This is for Gene Simmons.......2005-07-03

    Gene, you can burn in hell as far as i'm concerned.

    King Diamond is one of the greatest voices in metal/rock and one of the most original, unlike your self Mr Simmons. The fact that the King has chosen to be an underground artist his whole career and never once tried to sell out or become commercial only proves he is the real deal and does not care about trends or being famous or relevent, i really think King could care less about such foolish concepts, unlike a certain band called KISS, that has made countless attempts to stay popular and r a p e it's fans out of money with such banal attempts like going disco and becoming a crap Bon Jovi rip off in the 80's.

    King cares about his fan base, KISS and Gene $immon$ only see their fans as a source of cash. King diamond puts out new albums, KISS simply gives their fans countless reissues and expensive box sets full of material they already have in an order to get even more rich.

    I don't see why you hate King Mr $immon$, is it because he wears make up? well what about Alice Cooper? what about the countless number of norwegian and scandinavian black metal artists who also don corpes paint! i don't see you trying to sue them!

    KISS is the biggest joke in music history, retarded lyrics, simple riffs and all of that f * c k ing stupid KISS merchandise which i want to burn because it is all a ploy for this ugly new york jewish man with a long tounge to get filthy rich. Rest asured, i belive HE would be working at the local WAL-MART if it were not for his undeserved luck.

    KISS sucks, Gene, you SUCK!

    3 out of 5 stars Maybe it's just me.......2006-03-30

    I hate to criticize an album by making reference to another, but after listening to INC I find myself drawing comparisons to The Refused(inevitably), a band which is probably my favorite of all time(reading Marx's Capital and then having "New Noise" or "Deadly Rhythm" in your ear makes you want to riot, BTW). In my opinion the INC lacks a certain bite that the Refused had, and some may say that this is natural and that Dennis is "evolving" blah blah blah...but with a terribly thought out song title(capitalism stole my virginity, WTF?)and a toned down sound, i found myself disappointed with the album...maybe in a couple years when i start to chill out i'll be able to enjoy this, but right now there definitely seems to be something lacking...pick it up and judge for yourself though. later

    3 out of 5 stars maybe it's me.......2005-04-26

    Borrowed this from a friend and I must say I'm not really feeling all the praise thrown at this album or group. Sure, it is a neat mix of different styles (take some blues, surf riffs, whatever) thrown into a "punk" outfit - but it all sounds pretty derivative. Sure it is nice to hear something fresh and more original than most music currently being made (I'll count 2001 as "current"), but I'd rather listen to The Clash, The Ramones, Dead Kennedys who all played punk music with style. Also these guys sound like any number of bands around at that time, there is very little difference between these guys and all those other "The" groups. It's "okay", which is why I'll still give it three stars. I'd rather see my (theoretical - no real ones yet) kids listen to this, as the alternatives are severely lacking at the moment.

    As far as the lyrics go, people are saying they are "political". Just because you shout things that sound political does not make you a political band. There has to be some meaning in there to, which TINC seems to lack. I'm sure they do mean well but that is not enough to actually purchase this album.

    3 out of 5 stars promising but mediocre.......2004-08-27

    No doubt, this is TINC's most consistent album. There's no longer that silly carnival-pop sound of their debut, or the filler of Survival Sickness. TINC uses the same influences (garage, beat, surf, blues, jazz) from SS and improves on them. "Capitalism stole my virginity" is an improved version of the surfy "Will it ever be quiet?". "New Empire blues", though far from sounding like genuine blues, is still a vast improvement over the earlier "do i have to spell it out?". "Up for sale" is just pure hip, the guitar throughout the song alone (sounding like something from mission impossible) ensures you'll pick up their next release. There are moments in New weather that the band flourishes; the funky intro, the use of techno beats on "Breakout", the saxaphone solo on "New empire blues", show a glipse of a great band that might develop in future albums. But for each of these, there's a moment where the music doesnt seem to fit what came before it, or the melody seems unnatural or repetitive. This is especially true in the latter half of the album

    As far as the lyrics go, there really isnt anything new here. The problems TINC identify (commodification of relationships, growing cynicism) seem like the musings of someone far from any real danger or injustice. TINC just shouts optimistic slogans without style or outrage which makes the lyrics kind of embarassing actually.

    Lets be honest here. There are plenty of garage bands on the scene riding on the popularity of bands like the white stripes and the murder city devils. TINC is different from the pack in a couple ways. Their use of noise and samples could turn out one unique garage CD someday. Until then this hardly the best retro CD on the market today. Lets not go nuts with the praise guys.

    5 out of 5 stars Go Team Swede Punk.......2004-03-30

    I first fell into Refused (singer Dennis's previous band) and later realized the voice from hearing "Capitalism Stole My Virginity". Not to compare these two bands, as they have very different sounds, but there are similarities, mainly the strong anti-capitalist standing. Other than that, the (I)NC are a mixture of punk, garage, and jazz that is breathtaking. My favorites on this cd are "Breakout 2001," "Capitalism Stole My Virginity," "Dead Language of Love," and "New Morning, Changing Weather." I can't wait to see these guys (and girl) live because the record has so much energy the concert hall might blow up. Highly recommended for the urges inside yourself to break and burn things

    5 out of 5 stars A New Morning, Changing Weather.......2004-03-03

    Wow, The (International) Noise Conspiracy, these guys are amazing, how can I describe the energy coming from this cd. From the first note that came from the speakers, I knew this was something different. I have listened to their older stuff and this is something completely different. Their first full-length First Conspiracy is more of just cool beats with catchy lyrics, while Survival Sickness, their second, is harder, faster riffs. Their newest project, A New Morning ,Changing Weather is their best stuff yet. Combine jazzy indie music, the best studio work I've seen in a long time, meaningful lyrics(mainly on the evils of capitalism), GREAT vocals(Dennis is a madman with the mic), and some of the most talented songwriters in the world, and you get A New Morning, Changing Weather.
    ::Song Review::
    1.Northwest Passage
    - (10) Great Song, talks of the "Northwest Passage" we're all trying to find, the way to happiness

    2.Up For Sale
    - (9) This song is about Capitalism and how we are all "Up For Sale" Only reason for rating it 9 is it gets rather repetitive at the end

    3.Bigger Cages, Longer Chains
    - (10)In the top three. Catchiest song on the album. Many different interesting parts. Listen to it up at the music sampler.

    4.Breakout 2001
    - (10) Great Chorus. About how we can break away from the capitalist rulers in our world

    5. A Body Treatise
    - (9) Starts slow, picks up to be a great song

    6.Born into a Mess
    - (10) Great music by every part in the band. Many different parts also

    7. New Empire Blues
    - (10)Three way tie for the best song on the album. Great guitar riffs, extremely well though out song. Guest saxophone parts.

    8.Capitalism Stole My Virginity
    - (10) You can guess what this song is about. Amazing vocals on Dennis' part. Keyboards play a great part in this song.

    9. Last Century Promise
    - (9) Good song, except for the guitar screeching that is in the background the whole time

    10. Dead Language of Love
    - (9) Good song, great vocals.

    11. A New Morning, Changing Weather
    - (10) Title Song, and a great one! This song is in the three way tie also, but I would probably say this is the best on the album. Best vocal on the cd, best guitar, best keyboards, best drums. Everything is moving too fast for life on this track. Great chorus, the keyboard outro is the best I've ever heard on any cd ever.

    All in all, this is the best cd I own, and I doubt it will ever be less than that, that is unless, of course, TINC comes out with a new full length, which,I'm sure will be nothing less than phenomenal. They will be at Warped Tour 2004, so if your getting tickets make sure you go to these guys because they put on the best live show I've ever seen.
