Forever Advancing Legions - Mithras

Advantages: Loads of fantastic songs
Disadvantages: not as good as Andrew's Manics tape

...like the Manics even more, and I played the tape so much that it's getting a bit worn out in places. In addition to the fact that I missed my mates, pubs, and London's parks and museums, I was becoming more and more disturbed by my government's policies. President George W. Bush was doing something that horrified me almost every day. The Manics refer to 'America, the Devil's Playground' on 'Baby Elian,' so I felt a bit subversive every time I listened to their music. Unfortunately, 'Forever Delayed' is not as good a representation of the Manics' best work as Andrew's tape is. For the most part, their most extreme songs wouldn't get radio play, and 'Forever Delayed' is a Greatest Hits collection. It is, in a word, softer than the Manics really are, with a few exceptions: 'Faster,' 'Motown Junk,' 'You Love Us,' and 'The Masses... Read review

Advantages: The Girl's are back and are better!
Disadvantages: It does not seem to be doing to well in the charts!!

...After selling over 35 million albums world wide from only two albums, the Spice Girl's have drafted in some of the biggest names to help them with the prduction of "Forever" the eagerly awaited third album. "Forever" has a slick American R&B feel all the way through, the girl's have never sounded better but needless to say it has less character than their previous two offerings "Spice" and "Spiceworld". Geri has gone but has girl power? As one of the tracks lyric's declares the girl's are "right back at ya, come on, we're changing the vibe, get with it" a slight hint that they still believe in girl power maybe? If you are looking for a repeat of album's 1 & 2 you may be disappointed but looking for something new fromthem and you will be pleasantly surprised, it is tru things get better with age and why should the Spice Girl's be any...

Advantages: A lot of tracks but very few new ones
Disadvantages: Not perfection

...most successful album to date, 'Exclusive: The Forever Edition'. Should we take that to mean Chris Brown is staying around forever? Whilst his self-titled debut album, 'Chris Brown', topped the 3 million sales mark in a couple of years -- a remarkable achievement for such a young artist -- 'Exclusive' has nearly equalled that record in a matter of months. A dancing ability worthy of comparisons surpassing Michael Jackson, we are still waiting on that song that changes him from just a background artist to someone with the well-rounded popularity of a Justin Timberlake. Lets see how the now dated tracks hold up on this re-release, as well as what improvements have been made to those thinking of picking up the album with new artwork. "Girl, I'm the King so that means I'm fly." *01, Throwed (3.01), 4* *02, Kiss Kiss ft. T... Read review
