Dub Vibrations - Israel Vibration

Advantages: captures essence of band live...
Disadvantages: don't buy if you want clean polished production, sounds rough and almost live at times...

...In a sane world, 'Vibrate You' would be the beginning of a resurgence of true rock. It's fast, poppy, punky and glam. Everything great rock music should be. Cross this with the big statements made by King Adora in the press and it makes them quite simply a band to die for. The album captures the same essence of the band that they project live. Energetic, exciting but quick. The special edition of the album including the bonus tracks is over in just under 39 minutes. That is far from a complaint though, if you write excellent catchy 3 minute songs and believe you're truly amazing then why add filler songs and try to make your songs longer? The album starts off with one of the early singles titled 'Smoulder'. An electronic brash voice comes from the speakers. 'Shake my body, shake my body'. The first chord is then belted and we...

Advantages: Good if your into Rock or Glam rock kinda thig
Disadvantages: Don't bother if Your not

...So as you probably know from having read a few of my ops I like to go out and buy albums on the basis of one song or maybe if I see a band live and they sound half-decent. Well King Adora are one of those bands. Having seen them at Reading festival I decided to go out and buy a copy of the debut album, Vibrate You. The problem with operating this kind of tactic is you don't know what you’re going to get. So here goes. I’m going to guess that not many people will have heard of King Adora, so here goes. They are four guys from Birmingham and this is their debut album released in 2001. Style wise they are in a similar league to Placebo with a sort of Glam rock type of style going on. The band are; Maxi Browne: Vox and Guitar The Nelsta: Guitars and Vox Robbie “Jesus” Grimmit: Bass Guitar Dan “Mr Eyebrows” Dabrowski: Drums Track... Read review

Advantages: fun,
Disadvantages: if u dont have a pc you miss out on a lot

...This is the debut album of the Brummie band King Adora. The band has the glam look of the early Manics era with overdoses of glitter and eyeliner and a tendancy to be camp and anti masculine.The band seem daring with their songs and even their name which comes from a type of vibrator!. The singer sounds like the singer from manson on speed as he sings his way through the fast passed album. The band have been around for nearly a year now and have released singles from this album last year and its seems weird now that they are re-releasing the sungles when the alnum comes out.The songs catchy affairs with the lyrics not being too complex are enjoyable and easy to remember to sing along with The songs cover a varied range of topics but one which stands out is the single "Big isnt Beautiful" which takes a look at male annorexia...
