Average Rating:
 Rating:  - 6th time roundThere's something about Alabama 3 which reminds me of Fun Lovin Criminals, the sound they are creating is not necesserily from an authentic source. The criminals played upon non existent mafia links, Alabama 3 does american dark blues, country wrapped in a technoish sandwich, they just happen to be from Brixton, London. Does that matter, not really, it's created with theatricality, humour, knowing the genre inside out, it's hard to deny that with all the records they have put out, there is no loss of outlaw fun. Rating: - I've become enlisted in the Army of LoveI bought this album, and all their others, after seeing them live. And freom D. W. Love's introduction I was tapping my foot and dancing like a numpty. There is so much energy and vibrancy in each sone, be it MONDAY DON'T MEAN ANYTHING TO ME or the slower HOLY BLOOD, each song tells you that you are listening to a band who deserve more praise than you can get them. Even Calling ALABAMA 3 the best band in the world, dosen't feel enough. From Larry Love's gravely vocals to new girl Devlin Love plain gorgeous voice, this album makes you want and almost need their other albums. To quote one of the songs "What ever dope you were on, you just just got hooked." Rating:  - Recycling old tunes? Sounds like the end of the road.It's hard for some people to keep quiet when they've nothing to say, and it must be desperately hard for professional musicians to step away from the mic/guitar/studio but lordy, I wish they'd had a break for a year rather than releasing this guff. Really like most of their earlier stuff & Power in the Blood had some cracking stuff on it but this sounds like a bad tribute band. We're selling this cd after playing it once. My wife is the big fan, I came to appreciate & love them later but we are of the same mind on this one! Two disappointed fans. :( Rating:  - Lack of direction in the Middle of the RoadThe very, very great writer Joseph Heller was once goaded by an interviewer who pointed out that he had never written another book as good as his debut, Catch 22. Heller just smiled and gave the legendary response: "Well, neither has anyone else..." The very, very great band Alabama 3 could recycle this line with some justification, having produced not one, but two "best albums ever" (1997 debut "Exile on Coldharbour Lane", and the dark follow-up, "La Peste"), but they are never content to rest on their laurels. Every couple of years they turn out another fresh, original album that wipes the floor with just about all of the alleged "cutting edge" of the given moment. They are also one of the best live bands you'll ever see, and in an ... Read More: Rating: - Not their best but darned goodAlabama 3 continue with their ever prolific journey as a middling, doing-OK, never-going-to-rule-the-world act who, ten years and thirteen albums in, are finally starting to stagnate. The usual A3 ingredients, techno, religion, country and western, hardcore socialism, hedonism and Elvis, are all present and correct in droves. The melodic strengths, the hummable tunes that are the bands core redeeming feature are still here in spades. Maybe this album will stand up in decades time as a classic - but probably not. Simply put, Alabama 3 are now entering their niche phase : selling a respectable amount of albums, doing everything as a small business, and generally getting by adequately with the odd tour, the odd record, and never setting ...
