Where it all began Advantages: Great Art work Disadvantages: its only 26minutes long! This is where it all began for the metal band TOOL, this is there first EP called Opiate. It deal's with strong themes such as censorship, mind controle and religion. Fast pased and harsh lyrics. Very loud and agressive type of music. The kinda music that'll make you wanna slap your own mama, no joke. The CD features 6 songs, which includes "Cold and ugly" and "Jerk-off" being perfomed live!. The songs are shorter in length compared to there 13 ... ...songs are good, "jerk-off" being a personal favourite. Okay now im not gona rumble on about what the songs are about because the band prefer that people listen to the album, think for themselves and take the lyrics how ever they want! wow such an open minded band.

Another Great Album by Tool Advantages: Great Listening with a distinctive sound Disadvantages: Not as easy to listen to as their later stuff Unsurprisingly, this is a great album - it's by Tool so the greatness is pretty much a given. Although the album only has 6 tracks and the songs are quite short compared to the 6min average of Tool's later songs, this is still a really great listen. You can hear the distinctive 'Tool sound' even though the music seems a bit rougher and theres also a different bassist (Paul d'Amour). I personally wouldn't advise this album to be one of your first ... ...if you like Tool then you're gonna get this album at some point, even if its not right now. Overall its another great album with a unique sound that you won't stop listening to if you get it. Oh btw there's also a couple of live tracks on here which are excellent. ... rouseymousey 01.07.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Opiate - Tool	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

Rage Against The Machine Album Review Advantages: Hard, unconventional rock Disadvantages: An acquired taste Rap-Metal group Rage Against the Machine released their self-titled debut album in 1992, but the music is just as relevant today as it was back then. Songs like 'Take the Power Back' and 'Freedom' are about individual exploitation by the cultural, social, and political systems in society, and how the people must be willing to rise up and overcome such oppression. You may have also recently heard about the small matter of 'Killing in the Name' beating ... ...when you first listen to Rage is that they mean business. The whole album is intended to provide voice to the silent minority: Those individuals that feel neglected and abused are given hope through the band's resonant, unashamed, confrontational expression. Guitarist Tom Morello's anomalous riffs, rhythmic special effects and extended tapping techniques were some of the most powerful sounds to come from a guitar in that era, and remain unchallenged ... andycarrington 22.12.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...

I love the guitarring its really catching and the drums are excellent. Lyrics are immense and stick in your head 'So have no fear and dont look back the afterlife awaits' I love that line espesially I dont know why.

My favourite album Advantages: Unique and Brilliant consistancey of good tracks Disadvantages: Old fashion looking album design Normally im into Children of Bodom, Slipknot, BFMV and alot more of the screamo bands. But the Avenged Sevefold have a truly unique style, the vocalist is amazing. I bought this album, and loved it. I think the best on the album is The beast and the harlot. I truly love this band and cannot wait until their next tour. The consistancy of the tracks is also very good with tracks like afterlife, bat country, Blinded in chains, MIA and gunslinger deserving ... slayer1293 05.12.2009 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: somewhat helpful Review of City Of Evil (Parental Advisory) [PA] - Avenged Sevenfold	Originality Lyrics Quality and consistency...
