Hits and Exit Wounds

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Alabama 3

Release Date April 21, 2008
As a long time Alabama 3 fan and owner of every single album they have produced this is a complete success. I have spent years trying to recruit fellow music lovers to acquire a taste for thier bizarre music without much success. Now, with this album I can.

Motion

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Cinematic Orchestra

Release Date September 27, 1999
I agree with most of the reviewers comments - dark, smokey, jass/fusion etc. etc. I would suggest that anyone who enjoys works from early Soft Machine (first to fifth), Ian Carr's Nucleus, Isotope to Angelo Badalamenti's Fire Walk With Me should give this album a listen.

The Truth About Love

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Lemar

Release Date September 11, 2006
I think anyone who browses this site will soon realise that the price and quality of cds are rarely related. Here we have another example of a GREAT cd available for pennies. Marvin Gaye would have been happy to have recorded "It's not that easy", Mobile DJs around the country would be wise to invest in this disc for Lemar's duet with Joss Stone for Silver Wedding celebrations and as for the collaboration with the always excellent Mica Paris and Styles P, WOW !. You will rarely here such a complete Urban/R&B tune as "Can't you see".You may have guessed already but I RATE this album. It joins my list of bargain soul buys - see my other reviews for more excellent soul with change from a quid.

Allow Us To Be Frank

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Westlife

Release Date November 08, 2004
When i heard about a rat pack album i thought oh no theyre copying Robbie Williams but i listen to it all the time. It comes out even now 4 years later so how can it be bad? The lads voices sound great and they all seem to really enjoy singing it. Another cheap way of making an album i think redigging up some songs and cover albums do really annoy me but ill let them get away with it this time! ( i think fly me to the moon rocks, and moon river)

Tubular Bells Vol.1: Remastered

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Mike Oldfield

Release Date May 29, 2000
Amazon, for some reason, has suggested to me that I might want to buy this.

Ah no.

If you are really desperate to hear tubular bells, can I suggest a good recording of Parsifal? It has the virtue of being, if only subjectively, shorter.

Knowle West Boy

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Tricky

Release Date July 07, 2008
This album is amazing whether you are a Tricky fan or not. After seeing him perform two tracks from this album on Later with Jools i couldn't wait for it's release! I wasn't disappointed. If this album was only half as good i still wouldn't have been. It's got everything. Council Estate has an energy i haven't heard or felt since Punk and Two Tone were born. Puppy Toy is a really strong song - it's funny too! Veronika is Powerful because of it's starkness and the lyrics, and it grows on you. C'mon Baby is one of my favourites becouse it's so catchy without being naff and has great lyrics! Buy This Album if you're a fan, try it if you're not!

Hate Culture

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: William Control

Release Date October 27, 2008
I'm a big fan of Aiden (his other band) and when I saw the article in Kerrang! about him first saying he's starting this side-project and the things he said left me thinking he had gone of his head.
I was half right! Yeah, some of the lyrics aren't that good. I know someone has already commented the flaw on the lyrics of 'Beautiful Loser' but I don't get what they said about 'Tranquilise'! That song is my favourite song on the album!
This album isn't for the kids! It's rather rude (if you've listened to it, you know what I mean) and there is quite a bit of swearing also. It's also not for the deeply religious because he constantly says in his lyrics how much he hates religion.
I have been to one of his first gigs and it was great! He really knows ... Read More:

HIStory - Past, Present and Future Book 1

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Michael Jackson

Release Date June 19, 1995
At the time of recording this album Michael Jackson was a very angry man, the Chandler case had been going on and other people in authority were trying their best to ruin him. This was the biggest selling black artist of all time and he was living in Neverland Ranch in a purely white community, people were jealous and wanted his musical career finished.
This album was Michael's answer to them.
The songs Scream, They don't care about us, Stranger in Moscow, This time around, D.S, Money, Childhood, Tabloid Junkie and 2bad all relate to Michael's life at that time, which is why i've given this album 5 stars, this isn't his best album by a long shot but it is still a fantastic and very personal album and the people who give this a low score should sit back with headphones ...

The Man-Machine

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Kraftwerk

Release Date January 17, 2003
Robots Spacelab Metropolis Model Neon Lights Man Machine

Some albums open up entire vistas, suggesting not only new approaches but new musical visions. While Trans-Europe Express outlined the general approach, The Man Machine is perhaps the ultimate expression of the synthesis of man and machine that underlay Kraftwerk's approach. The voice, which was so open and optimistic in "Europe Endless" in TEE is now processed and digitised from the off, in the opener "Robots". It's a remarkable song which feels that it had to be made by someone eventually. It's both cold and mechanistic, and oddly funky and touching - I love it when they say "We are programmed just to do / Anything you want us to".

Whereas previous Kraftwerk album had featured a smidgeon of authentic ... Read More:

Best Kept Secrets 1996 - 2004

CD-Charts > Music > Dance and Electronic
by: Lamb

Release Date June 07, 2004
well what to say about this cd?
when i first got this cd i had only heard the song angelica before which i absolutely loved so much it made me buy the greatest hits.
when i first bought this album it took some listening to to get used to, but my god now it is one of my favourite cds, i can listen to this cd again and again. all the songs are so different in pace and melody, some songs been just in a state of pure idilic ecstacy while others have eclectic beats to rock youre socks off mostly having the very haunting vocals of the female singer, and ill tell you now her vocals are soomething else, very nice to listen to.

so without further ado get this cd!!! if you havent heard much of lamb before then this is the perfect starting point. this will make you want to buy everything ... Read More:
