Give Me Your Soul... Please (Special Edition) [Digipak] - King Diamond

Advantages: Extra goodies - Bonus DVD
Disadvantages: Increase in Price

...Rammstein's live performances always amaze me. Werther it's the fact it sounds as good as it does from the CD, or that there are copious amounts of pyrotechnics - they always seem to please. Voelkerball is no different. Unlike "Live Aus Berlin" you get the DVD and CD in one. So you can listen to it whenever. It's a great combination of Reise Reise/Mutter with some older stuff too. Before you even open it, you're struck by the attractiveness and detail on the cover... and it opens up into a great net of pictures. Till's voice has changed a little, he's become more gruff, yet still captures the spirit of the music and the live performances are still as electric - with fire/huge robot claws/cooking pots/the lot! The DVD also has snippets from other countries, giving more flavor. I especially like the Moscow special - Duct tape skirts... Read review

She's Only Happy In The Sun This is another great work from the delectable Ben Harper, who has to be one of the most blessed musicians and songwriters of our time. He has treated us to one of his most eclectic mixes with Diamonds on the Inside. This album is full of something for just about everybody. It jumps straight into the uplifting, "With My Own Two Hands" a classic reggae track.. "When It's Good" has the Southern feel of classic acoustic blues. "Amen, Omen" is my favourite track, sends tingles through me when I hear it. "Brown Eyed Blues... Read review

Advantages: Great production, awe inspiring agressive/clean singing with TRUE feeling, modern, fresh
Disadvantages: Not quite as good as their stunning debut

..., in comparrison it is not as striking as this version. The CD sits in a very nice matt (NOT glossy) deep-red digipak with a booklet neatly housed inside the front fold. The booklet contains full lyrics printed in blood red over a black background with notes on each songs production, thanks list, and info on the band. 'Revolver' is an album that shouldn't be missed or overlooked as I nearly did, it may take a few listens to appreciate what is here, but give it a few and I'm sure things will suddenly click. I have found that all of my top twenty or so albums are like this one, they have all grown on me from not really enjoying them massively on first listen. Take 'Cave In's' album 'Until Your Heart Stops' for instance, I thought I had wasted a tenner on that one. It's now one of my all time favourite albums, I struggle to remove it from my CD player...
