Can't wait to get it!.......2007-07-17

My 12yr old introduced me to WT via her love of Anime and similar sites. Very similar to Enya, Enigma and Evanescence, yet vocals and instrumentals VASTLY more mesmirizing and worthy! So much so I bought 2. One for each of us! Looking forward to it! Her's is a surprise.

Amazing!!.......2007-07-16

This is Within Temptation at their best! Every part of this cd has feeling to it. I'f your a fan of bands like evanescence I recommend Within Temptation..and really this band holds their own. GREAT CD!! GET IT!!

Worth the money .......2007-07-04

I looked everywhere for this CD. Trust me, you can't find it. That said it's one of the best CD's I have bought in the past few years. The vocalist is compelling, and the overall sound is great. They're a lot like Nightwish soundwise, but the lyrics are much better in my opinion. Worth the money any day.

I shouldn't have spoken so soon........2007-06-06

I've heard only a few songs from Within Temptation and had avoided them for years after. They didn't gain much attention from me because I wasn't impressed by what I heard (I was expecting a bombastic first impression). I was wrong to do so because I took a listen to them again not too long ago by watching the video for "Memories" and I became highly interested in them. I downloaded "Jillian" and after hearing an awesome intro, I was enraptured completely. I ordered this cd without hearing the rest of the tracks. I rarely do such a thing. "Pale" and "Memories" are gems.

This album has a high range of hauntingly imaginative atmosphere that few bands, Leaves' Eyes in particular, can produce. While having a solid theme to this album, W.T. put various emotions and atmospheres into each song. This is a good trait because it keeps us interested for a long time and usually has the listener repeating the tracks. Why didn't I see this sooner? I am always eager to hear different bands and different material.

This will go into my ever growing music collection.
I recommend Leaves' Eyes because, they too, are able to grow on to the listener, while keeping them in a prolonged trance. I regret the fact that I have avoided this band. Might I also mention that Sharon actually does have a wonderful voice. I have another lady to grace my tons of Anneke Van Giersbergen, Liv Kristine, and Cristina Scabbia vocal contributions.

Wonderful Music.......2007-05-07

For those who are drawn towards any music like Enigma, Enya, or Evanescence, this cd has alot of great tracks. I recommend it to anyone who has such taste in music.

A Deffinate "Must Have" for 80s Music Lovers.......2007-05-30

When I heard SUPERSONIC for the first time, I was impressed. So much that I went on a hunt to find the LP. I purchased the CD and LP and love them both. The song "WAY OUT" is another favorite of mine. I grew up listening to 80s hip-hop and JJ FAD was right there with SALT N PEPA, LL COOL J and UTFO. They had some nice stuff. I also bought there follow-up "Not Just a Fad" sadly, that album flopped. I hear these days, one of the girls is in the fast food business. Wow, how things change. Anyhow, great album and wont give it up for nothing.

Now Really!.......2007-04-04

What? Calling this album "tacky" is like calling country music "twangy". Remember, this album is from the 80s and it's one of the first all-female rap groups. Rap has evolved into hip-hop and is much more produced these days. Back in the day, rap was about harmless competition between MCs not bling-bling and Bentleys. LL Cool J's first album is a diss album too. This album is poppy and fun and will remind you of the good old days: dance-offs, amusement parks, skateboarding, rollerskating, school dances, etc. If you grew up doing the "cabbage patch" and the "running man" this album is for you. (PS I still know all the words to "Now Really".)

Necessary.......2007-01-19

This album is inexpensive. And it is a nostalgic classic of rap at a painful stage of "evolution." The Supersonic track alone is worth the price of admission. And now that Fergie has a hit which shamelessly pilfers the Supersonic sound, you just have to own it to see how the music industry recycles its product. Buy it and learn.

JJ FAD.......2007-01-11

This CD brought back some memories, I love it and my kids love it. Really the first girl rappers, old school, but real, record scratching and beat making. Great.

I EXHALE HARD ON THIS ONE.......2006-12-29

like everybody else, i got this for SUPERSONIC. after that, oh boy. why they did a diss record i do not know. they got dissed too now...........check out roxanne shante's WACK IT. funny diss record from the marley marl cd from 1988............the one with SYMPHONY on it. nostalgia cubed.

Love Metal Redefined!.......2006-12-07

When I bought this CD, I was so excited. My favorite band + new songs= a very excited me! I rush home and relished in the music and lyrics. I sat there and just listened. This album made me realize why I was a HIM fan to begin with- orginality, amazing lyrics, a voice so beautiful it'll make the angels cry, and a new sound that just blew me away. This album is the definition of the lovemetal genre, not just because of the name, but the whole package- music, lyrics, voices, everything. I highly recommend this album to both hardcore HIM heads and newbies!

VILLE VALO THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL!!!!!!.......2005-04-29

WHAT A GREAT ALBUM, ALL TRACKS ARE GREAT. IT'S THE ONLY ALBUM I'VE EVER HEARD WHERE EVERY SONG IS JUST AS GOOD AS THE SONG BEFORE. THIS IS REAL ROCK, A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT IS PLAYED ON THE RADIO THESE DAYS. A MASTERPIECE!!!!!! VILLE VALO HAS THE MOST AMAZING VOICE IN THE WORLD, THE LYRICS AND THE MUSIC BEHIND IT ARE A WORK OF BRILLIANCE. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON TOP 40 ROCK WHEN YOU CAN GET AN ALBUM LIKE THIS. ALSO NEW HIM ALBUM AND VILLE VALO SOLO ALBUM SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER 2005, CAN'T WAIT.

HIM FAN.......2004-07-20

This cd was really awesome. I was astounded by how the music behind the words (which were also phenominal) had improved a great deal! This is definitly the best HIM cd, and any true HIM fan that doesnt have it is missing out! BUY IT!

HIM's Masterpiece.......2003-12-28

While HIM has pleased us in the past with brilliant releases like "Greatest Love Songs v. 666" and "Razorblade Romance", they hit a slight slump with their third full length album, "Deep Shadows & Brilliant Highlights". The album was not bad, is just showed no progress. However, HIM come back with their most powerful and masterful work yet, "Love Metal".

Before this release, I never truly realized how talented this band was. I've always appreciated their vocalist, Ville Valo, and consider him one of rock's best singers. He also writes music for all the band, which must be why they all work together and play off each other so well. Their guitarist (there's always two guitars at work at the same time on every track, so I guess he overdubs it) does som pretty tricky and catchy stuff that he hasn't shown off in previous releases. Their bassist, while no Les Claypool, is an excellent rhythm keeper. But the one bad musician, as on all HIM releases, is their drummer. He's not too good, basically. He does not complicated things, and basically hits a snare and a bass drum throughout the whole album, sometimes throwing in a crash. It's either he's not capable or Valo isn't writing good enough stuff for him, but it kind of brings down the music.

Despite the drummer, this release is a masterpiece. Every time I listen to it, it gives me a feeling of seclusion and peace. That sounded corny, but this is one of the only album's I recall that can actually do that. The way "Soul on Fire" comes to it's epic conclusion is oh so super. This is the way music should be done.

The lyrics in the album are quite unique. They basically revolve around joy, sorrow, love and hate. But they are not handled in the Simple Plan way: someone's miserable because their girlfriend used them and now she's going out with the jock. No, I think HIM's a little more mature than that. Most of the lyrics are metafourical, as they have always been. Which is the uniqueness of them.

I highly recommend this band if you are looking for originality. This band is bleeding it.

HIM's Masterpiece.......2003-12-28

I highly recommend this band if you are looking for originality. This band is bleeding it.

P.S.: Love metal is the genre HIM falls into. Not goth. Though Love Metal does highly resemble it. And I've read reviews where people seem to think "Love Metal" means something like "I Love Metal". No. That's wrong. Sorry.

The Donots " We Got the Noise".......2007-03-13

A very well thought out album, with great guitar work. Especially on " We Got the Noise". There are some songs that aren't as good as the first song on the album, but overall it is a great album.

Best Album in history from the best Band in history.......2005-08-18

I figured out about the donots when I got MVP Baseball 2005.I lve in the u.s,so i looked at 20 stores w/o finding them,so after 2 months, i finally bought it off amazon.anybody who likes bands like bowling for soup and dropkick murphys will most likely love this just as much.hers's what i thought about each song

1.We Got the Noise-my favorite song on the album.great lyrics,great guitar work,great song.what else to say about it but 100% perfect in every single little way?10/10

2.Knowledge-my least favorite song on the album.decent lyrics,not a whole lota guitar,but was still a pretty decent song.6/10

3.wretched boy-awsome song with good guitar,drum,and vocal work.really good lyrics.10/10

4.it's over-again,great song with pretty much everything done
right.10/10

5.dissepear-great punk song.not very long though.nearly everything done right.10/10

6.life ain't gonna wait-really good beggining,pretty good middle and end.8/10

7.alright now-ecellent song with great chorus,lyrics,guitar,drums,and vocals.10/10

8.good-bye routine-it was pretty good,just not fast paced enough for me.8/10

9.your way home-loved it.10/10

10.the jerk parade-nearly perfect but just falls short of it.9/10

11.cough it up-even though it was slower than the other songs,everything was done perfectley.the lyrics,vocals,drums,and guitar all went with the pace.10/10

12.better days-wasn't to great,but still decent.7/10

13.was also pretty well done,but not long enough and the lyrics wern't as well done.8/10

bottom line-10/10

best song-we got the noise(10/10)

worst song-knowledge(6/10)

in other words,even if you've never even heard one of the donots,you should buy this album.

The Donots Rock!.......2005-03-18

I first saw these guys touring with Millencolin and they are really great! They are a successful mix of pop-rock, punk and have recently developed a much more raw, hardcore edge especially on this album.
There are so many great tracks, opening with the straight up rock n roll anthem 'We got the Noise' right up to the attitude filled 'Punchline'. fans of great gutar music will be easily pleased, 'Knowledge' has a kick ass guitar solo and 'Life ain't Gonna Wait' opens up with an awesome riff! It's well worth looking ito these guys, they have a great knack for penning catchy rock songs and appeal to just about anyone

German Punk rocks! .......2004-07-22

A week ago a good friend of mine bought a new Album "Got the noise" by the Donots.
As we drove in his car we were listening to the cd and I found it was not bad at all.
As i didn't really know a lot about the Donots (the only two songs I've ever heard are "Superhero" and "We're not gonna take it"), I did not expect too much when I bought the cd.
But in fact I was really surprised!
The band plays some really good punk, they in a way remind me of "The Ataris", but they are a lttle harder.

They have some quite catchy songs on their album:

1. "We Got The Noise" - Their first single and entry song. Very good one, although I think there are even better ones on the album. 4/5

2. "Knowledge" - I like the lyrics of this one, catchy chourus! 4/5

3. "Wretched Boy" - Pretty normal punk song, nothing really special to me 3.5/5

4. "It's Over" - I love this one, cool lyrics and melody! 5/5

5. "Diappear" is the "worst" song of the album to me. The singer is more screaming than singing and melody is nothing too special either. 3/5

6. "Life Ain't Gonna Wait" - One of the best songs on the album, has a really cool beginning! A little harder than the other songs (reminds me a little of the new single of H-Bloxx "Leave me alone") 4/5

7. "Alright Now" - Nothing special to say about that song - i like it (nice middle-part) 4/5

8. "Good-Bye Routine" - No E-Guitars this time, a slower, chillin' song, nice change 4/5

9. "Your Way Home" - Again a song with a really cool middle part, the whole song is quite good, nothing too special though. 3.5/5

10. "The Jerk Parade" - Yeah, that one rocks! My absolute favourite! I love the chourus!! 5/5

11. "Cough It Up" - Again a slower, good one 4/5

12. "Better Days(not included)" - Don't know if that is still punk, it's a little harder, reminds me of Hoobastank's "Out of Control". Still I really like it!! 5/5

13. "Punchline" - Good song to end the album with, has some hard riffs again, and the typical punk verses. The ending is really cool!! 4/5

The average rating of the album therefore is 4/5.

I'd say, everyone who is into punk rock and a little harder music should defenitely buy this one!
I can just say, that the few days I own it now, I don't listen to anything else at the moment ;)

Read all of the good reviews below --- believe them --- dey be right on target, amigo! As regards the uptightriptideconstipated comments on sound quality made by some of the reviewers below --- were any of you alive when transistor radios were around? Geez, guys, don't you get it? The sound is perfect for the songs! It's supposed to sound cheesy and garagey and cheapononhightecho! Why do you think it's called garage music? Finally, regarding the idiot (see below) who stated that he will burn his favorite tracks and then re-sell the CD--- why don't you burn yourself, instead? With fans like you, who needs critics? Nice way to support a great and truly fun band, guy...Good grief!!!

Overall, this is GREAT, FUN, WIGGLEYOURBUNS stuff --- yeah, not as loud and raucous as previous LS stuff, but who cares?! This is a supercooliciouscheesygreaseburgerfest of an album. So there --- raspberry sounds galore to all of those who just don't get it, and especially to those below who trashed it. If you just want the sameoldsameold, just listen to Classic (puke!) Rock Radio. To the rest of you who appreciate it and want your music to be fun --- cowabunga, baby! Let's don the masks, hit the ropes, and groovydoovy!!! May the Jackets rock 4-ever. Aloha.

P.S. Yes, I am certifiably insane.

Good, not great..........2003-11-19

Good album, but missing the energy of some of the previous albums. I think Velvet Touch... is still their best album (although I am dying to get my hands on the Christmas CD). At times, Supersonic Guitars just sounds flat. I also agree with previous reviews that the production isn't as good. Previous LS albums have some snap to them... this one sounds a little muted. These guys really rock, but just not very much on Supersonic Guitars. By yourself an early Christmas present, and see them live.

I got mine autographed by Danny Amis!.......2003-11-17

This is another fine instrumental rock album from the modern masters of the genre. Some may call it "surf music", but it really isn't. They don't play the kind of guitars typically found in a surf band, and their music is more eclectic than your average surf band. Their is certainly a surf influence here, but they seem to be more influenced by non-surf intrumental bands, like the Ventures and Davie Allen & the Arrows. Anyway, this album is a lot of fun and will be enjoyed by fans of good time instrumental rock and roll.

Skip this one - buy all the others.......2003-10-24

This just isn't Los Straitjackets to my ear. The tunes generally lack melody - where are all those great surf style hooks? It's all replaced by a "heavy" sound that misses the fun that the Straitjackets are known for. I also think Ben Vaughn's production work is sorely missed. While the recording quality is good, it has a gritty feel that would be more appropriate for an R&B record. I hope their next CD will be a return to form.

Excellent!.......2003-10-15

First of all, the flat production on Velvet sucked, not this album. This is sixties inspired all the way and the sound fits the songs and mood. I really don't understand how some fans don't appreciate this album unless they haven't given it enough listens. Isn't Love Grand is great, Beach Bag rocks with some truly bitchin' solos, Midnight in Salerno has gotta be one of Danny Amis' best tracks, and the drumming is definately out of control all the way through. The shorter song lengths fit the group better as well, since, let's face it, any album can be tough to sit through all they way, let alone instrumental music. If you like Los Straitjackets, I gurantee you'll like most of this and isn't that worth the 12 bucks?

Better than the "stuck in a rut" reviewers say it is........2005-05-31

I have nine Guano Apes CD's. Certainly the "Planet Of The Apes" has the cream of the crop, which is where I would point ANY first time buyer of the apes. BUT if you already know & like the apes, BUY "Don't Give Me Names", simple as that. There are MANY tunes on it that appear on their best hits, so SOMEBODY liked them. I have an unusually wide spectrum of musical interest. I LOVE "Quality" wherever it may be found. My collection also includes, Tapping The Vein, Die Happy & Lacuna Coil. I even like The Lords Of Acid once in awhile. As of late, Whenever I feel the need for un-leashed raw female power & expression, I reach for "Planet Of The Apes", it Frosts My Cake. Expand to other Guano Apes CDs Like DONT GIVE ME NAMES, AFTER you've experienced them. Breathe in the aroma, kick the turds around awhile, get to know Land Of The Apes, FIRST. However there are GOOD tunes here not found on their best hits CD.

:: ««« proud like gods »»» ::.......2000-12-08

Don't give me names is the best Guano Apes album far. After proud like a god they have grew, and turned better. This album is a litlle less agressive than Proud like a God, but still can be agressive. The sound has improved in all its way, turned more mellodical and more complex.

The album is all great, but Rain, Big in Japan, and Living in a Lie are the best ones.

It is a great step for Guano, and they are getting far beyond. They are creating an image, and getting away with it. Buy it, if you are a fan, buy it if you are a beliver.

oh my god.......2000-08-11

I live in great britain and dont get to hear many foreign bands but in the last few years ive changed that thanks to a tv channel called viva(a geramn music channel i get on my satelight)and now i listen to quite a few foreign band although none stick out more that guano apes and liquido both of which are from germany.i purchased pround like a god the guanos first album and rocked out all the time i have had it for nearly a year and still it has its place in my cd changer at all times now when i got hold of the new album i didnt quite know what to think but after listening to it for about 5 days solid i found my self rocking out so much it was un believeable and found myself doubting which album of the 2 was the best an question i still dont have an answer for but let me say this no matter which album of theres you buy you will rock out so much it is unbelieveable. This album is definately one of the best this year and will quickly see of any competetors quickly. dont think about it just buy it and you will found out now what many people will be learning soon the guano apes rock!

The Best Rock Band in a long time.......2000-07-31

While this CD doesn't live up to their first one, it has such a carnal power in it, that you can't help but flip out in your car, your room, or wherever you're listening to it at. A few months ago I saw the Guano Apes live here in Stuttgart, Germany. They staight up rocked. I've never in my life been to a better concert. I know that I'll take every opportunity to see them again for as long as I'm over here in Europe, and hopefully, when I do return to the States, they'll be more popular over there and be playing more shows. As long as they continue to put out a product anywhere near as powerful as their first two albums, I'll be buying them as soon as they're available

It's hard to describe.......2000-06-30

when i first bought the album i wanted to do no more than listen to Big in Japan, but after listening to the album i can't seem to get enough. starting with No Speech, Guano Apes don't stop rocking. i can't really pinpoint a favorite on this album. regardless of where you're at you just want to stop and rock out while the song plays. Songs like Dodel Up, Mine All Mine, and Gogan are extremely powerful songs and the Guano Apes don't stop with just those. I look forward to seeing what they can put out on the future.

Gezeiten rocks.......2005-11-15

I am a relatively new fan of L'Ame Immortelle. The first time I heard their music was "The Truth Behind" on Cleopatra Records' "This is Neo-Goth" compilation from last year. I was hooked by Sonja Kraushofer's angelic vocals and pulsating synthesized beats provided by Thomas Rainer. It immediately led me to buy the band's remix album "Zweilicht". As good as it was, I always wanted to buy one of the band's studio albums but alas their music isn't available in the US for very cheap. I recently got around to buying one of their studio albums "Gezeiten" after hearing some samples off their myspace page. Although albeit short, the music definitely lives up to my expectations. The music is bouncy and addictively infectious especially "Kingdom" and "5 Jahre", two of my personal favorite tracks. "Kingdom" in particular stands out on the cd for me with its throbbing bass lines and Sonja's beautiful vocals. It would be difficult to not want to dance to this song. "5 Jahre" is another great dance track, more aggressive in terms of beats than "Kingdom" but equally as melodic. "Fallen Angel" is a gorgeous piano ballad which is one of the reasons I bought this cd. I found myself captivated by the lovely melodies. While this cd wasn't expensive than a lot of import cds, it wasn't cheap. I definitely found "Gezeiten" worth my money.

They'd be a lot better in two years.......2007-04-06

"What you gonna do about it now?" sneers Nash Kato on "The Kids are Insane," the opening track from Urge Overkill's "The Supersonic Storybook." With that defiant beginning, the band attempts to rock the house with this sloppy nine-song album from Touch and Go Records. Despite the rock and roll enthusiasm and warped vocals from Kato as he lists off various cities in the song -- Kansas City, Chicago, Pittsburgh and New York -- there's just something missing about this album right from the get-go. Yes, the dirty guitars and snotty lyrics are present, but overall, this CD doesn't cut it.

On the positive side, "The Candidate" is a good song, the catchiest one on the disc by far. With its strained, tuneful guitar and low, sneaky lyrics, the song takes a suitably cynical view of politicians that we all hold: "I am the candidate," sings Kato, "but I don't even mean it." A few bridges make this song even more interesting. If the major labels were paying attention to UO during this time, it was because of songs like this.

Unfortunately, "The Supersonic Storybook" doesn't stay at this formidable level. "(Today is) Blackie's Birthday," written for drummer Blackie O., seems like it was written just to entertain the guys in the band. "It's Blackie's birthday, he's 22 today," sings Kato. (So what!) At least "Blackie's Birthday" has an upbeat tempo and decent guitar lick, however -- the bluesy "Emmaline is a dull drag the whole way through. Things don't get much better on "side two," though "Bionic Revolution" is less tedious and contains some heartfelt soul in the vocals. "What is Artane?" is a sludgy mess that goes nowhere. Nirvana could get away with this kind of sound during their Bleach days, but Urge Overkill is a different type of band and just sounds lazy when they attempt it.

The final tune, "Theme from Navajo" does feature a juicy guitar riff and barely audible vocals that somehow work. It's not a bad tune but turns to shambles fast, sadly. What this record needed was a good producer to reign everything in and demand some melody. Compared to what was to come later from this band, this work is shoddy and unremarkable. Take a listen to Saturation two years hence and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Some style, but rough around the edges.......2003-05-24

Supersonic Storybook starts off real well with "The Kids Are Insane". When King says "Can ya hear me U.O.?" you know they have some style and confidence. Songs like "Candidate" "What Is Artane?", and "Vacation In Tokyo" aren't bad, but the muddy singing and playing undercut the songs. "Emmaline" is a decent slower song. "Blackie's Birthday" and "Henhough" are basically novelty songs. "Bionic Revolution" is a fun (mostly) instrumental, and "Navajo" is a more thoughtful (mostly) instrumental to close the album out. It's not bad, but the best is yet to come from this trio.

Snazzy suits only tell half the story.......2003-01-24

Urge Overkill fit right in with the explosion of diverse, energetic, out-of-left-field talent that had overwhelmed rock music by the early nineties. Their look definitely set them apart from other alternative bands of that era, and earned them their fair share of scorn as well. This disc finds them at their absolute peak. My favorite song on the album is "What is Artane?" [], but there really isn't a bad cut on it. They had a remarkably funky, tight sound for a "grungy" three piece. As Nash Kato once put it, starting a band should be like declaring war. In their case, it was a war against taking yourself too seriously. Don't get the wrong impression though, despite their sense of humor and their unmistakable shtik, they were definitely not just a wacky, goofball, one joke sort of band. You can certainly tell there's some sharp-edged, whiteboy soul behind those saucey grins. "Emmaline", "The Kids are Insane", and "The Candidate" constitute some of the remaining standout material you'll find on this unheralded classic.

Another UO classic overlooked!.......2000-11-10

This band in their prime absolutely blew me away. This album was my introduction to this band and still, to this day, remains my favorite. Songs like "The Kids Are Insane", "The Candidate", "Bionic Revolution", and of course thier take on the Hot Chocolate Classic "Emma" retooled and retitled "Emmaline". This is a classic album from a classic band. To some these guys were a cartoon, sipping martinis and whatnot. .... Everyone that ragged on them for the "UO look" were out buying matching suits the next day and starting thier own rock band. Unfortunately for the listening public the imitations pulled off the look to an extent, but could never recreate the quality of music these guys created. Buy this one! NOW!

great album.......1999-09-01

This is well worth listening to, like most of UO's material. The Hot Chocolate cover is worth the price alone.

For the diehards, and maybe the casual fans.......2005-01-14

Supersonic & Demonic Relics (1999). Not to be confused with SUPERSONIC RELICS (also 1999) while having the same tracks, it is a "clean" or "edited" version of this album.

This album is basically a combination of 1991's DECADE OF DECADENCE and 1994's (although I may be mistaken on the year) QUARTERNARY, with some extra tracks added in for good measure. Keep in mind, this is not a greatest hits album, but a collection of B-sides and rarities. One reviewer put it best when they said it was the "best of the b-sides" or something to that effect. It pretty much is. Is it worth picking up? Yes, partly because it's extremely hard to find QUARTERNARY these days, and also, it's got some pretty good songs on it too. If you do happen to own both the aforementioned albums then there isn't much point to owning this...except for collectors. Casual fans aren't likely to dig this, but they should give it a shot anyway.

Some tracks you should check: "Bittersuite", "So Good, So Bad", "Sinners and Saints" and the odd but cool "Mood Ring", which shows you what it's like to be drunk in the studio with the Crue. A good album to own. 11/15

RANDY CASTILLO?.......2000-12-23

The person that reviewed this CD and stated that "Randy is on" on this CD seems to be confused... this album was released well before Randy was in the band (signed-on for New Tattoo) and many were recorded YEARS before the album was actually compiled.

This CD could most accurately be described as a "Best of B-sides"... many of these are Crue recordings that have surfaced previously on Crue albums (i.e. Decade of Decadence).

This album is most fitting for only hardcore Crue fans that do not already own this material on other releases or bootlegs.

crue rocks the world.......2000-08-07

"MONSTEROUS"&"SAY YEAH"are good songs for audience participation.These songs are a lot of fun and "PLANET BOOM"is the bomb.Each album since this one,has gotten better and better.It's too bad all the original members are not still together,but as long as Vince is on vocals it usually sounds like true Motley Crue! Tommy is Awesome and he should be there!but we have to give props where props is due Randy Costello is a great drummer and he has worked with the best!(Ozzy)etc. For those who didn't like this album and say Motley can't do it without Tommy-realize that Tommy is on THIS album.

GIVE ME A BREAK.......1999-11-02

I don't know about anyone else, but I am really sick of NIKKI re-re-releasing all of this old music. It's more than obvious that Vince should be given control of this chaotic band.

Took some time for the music to grow on me.......2006-09-12

I am a big fan of the Austrian industrial/electro band L'ame Immortelle. The only problem is their music isn't or wasn't available at a decent price here in America. Not too long ago, the band finally re-issued their early work at a more affordable cost. One of the cds by them I wanted was "Lieder Die Wie Wunden Bluten" because I heard the lovely ballad "Life Will Never Be the Same Again" on the band's MySpace page and just had to have the cd. I have to say that "Lieder Die Wie Wunden Bluten" took me a few listens for the music to grow on me. The problem lies in the gutteral, cookie monster vocals of Hannes Medwenitsch and not enough vocals from Sonja. The production was less than desirable. Not as good as "Gezeiten". Good cd but not as good as the band's more recent work.

Good album,great band.......2003-11-28

An early release from L'ame Immortelle. Unique darkwave/electro act with mixed vocals.
