Christmas With The Salvation Army - Salvation Army (The)

Advantages: An amazing use of lyrics
Disadvantages: Fast?

...If you like Immortal Technique, or music that tells a story or if your open to all genre's of music then I strongly recommend that you listen to this! Army of pharaohs is a catchy tune plus the gore. An amazing song, he sings about the world! , as does every song by the Jedi Mind Tricks! Jedi Mind Tricks is a political rapper and has collaborated with many other amazing artists such as Vinnie Paz and Outerspace, who made 'Angels if Death' with Immortal Technique. In this particular album 'The Torture Papers/ Army of Pharaohs', as 'Listen you will find songs such 'Listen Up', 'Gorillas' and 'Into the Army of Angels' and many more, which are all great songs.

...If you have read some of my Op’s you’ll know by now that I have a fair few CD’s. These range from the bizarre to commercial pop! Or pap! You choose! I think it’s more fun to Op on something that’s been out over a decade, hardly heard about and in no way current! ;o) Anyhow, I was in a pub several years ago (well just over a decade ago!) with some of the lads on an “All day bender” when I saw an odd thing! MTV are playing a Video! It must be odd because I’m paying attention to it!

And thus, I had my first experience of the group who are: - >>>>>>>>>>Army of Lovers<<<<<<<<<< I shall first explain the group and a brief history for those of you who... Read review

...release with his band, Tubeway Army. This album, released at a time when Punk had almost given way to the New Romantic and early Goth movements, spans the musical gap brilliantly. It's electro-pop synths were considered very experimental at the time, and unlike most of his contemporaries, Numans music has not dated over the years. Whilst being quite dark and dramatic lyrically, the tunes are up-beat and really stick in your head like all good music should. Gary plays keyboards on this album, as well as the guitar, and his style is whirling, and rather heady, like that of Jane Child or maybe Vangelis. If you have never heard of anything by either The Tubeway Army or by Gary Numan, then why not try this CD? The track listing is as follows ..... 1) Me! I disconnect from you 2) Are friends electric? 3) The Machmen 4) Praying... Read review
