Black Market Gardening - Fila Brazillia

Advantages: Better sound
Disadvantages: Same album content

...Kinda sounds redundant. The original Ten album was released in 1992. The mixed recording was released in 2006. Does that sound like a marketing gimmick? The bottom line is that the original version of Ten cannot be beat. Unless you collect Pearl Jam memorabilia like I do. This version of Ten looks like a tiney vinyl phonograph. How cute is that? It contain all of the great songs from Pearl Jam such as: Once, Even Flow, Alive, Why Go, Black, Jeremy, Oceans, Porch, Garden, Deep, and Release. I rarely listen to this version because I have the same songs on the original Ten. It's more of a collectors item. Although granted the audio does sound a little better than the original released in 1992. And for the same price (just about) you might just want to shoot for a tiney vinyl.... Read review

...incredible imagery on the part of Richey. This is a great song played both on electric and acoustic guitars. 5. Archives Of Pain – 5:29 – ‘give them the respect they deserve’ ** A bit of an obscure track here. Some good lyrics but it certainly isn’t a standout track musically. This track seems to be another Patrick Bateman for the Manics in that there are some good lyrics but some weaker music fitted around them. The effects on the voice give the song extra depth which is good. 6. Revol – 3:04 – ‘Lebensraum – Kulturkampf – Raus Raus – Fila Fila’ *** Richey’s notes on this track are quite good here so I’ll quote him fully – All adolescent leaders of men FAILED. All love FAILS. If men of the calibre of Lenin and Trotsky failed, then how can anyone expect... Read review

...Savage Graden, wow is all i can say, they have won the market of America, Europe, Asia, and many more countrys around the world. Their debut Ablum Savage Graden is fantastic. They cover a range of songs form love songs to up beat and fast songs. Darrens distinctive voice satnds out againts other pop groups, you can hear there accent and it makes the group even more uniqe. I think they have come far, and deserve all the limelight. I have yet to see them in concert, but i hope i will see them soon. I have all the singles and hope to get their second album soon. I was first introduced to Savage garden by my friend who is crazy on them, she collects all the posters, CDs, and magazines.... Read review
