Hellbound and Heartless [Digipak] - Heart Attacks

DON'T OPEN THE BOX FRANK!!

Advantages: A true horror - grusemoe & disgusting, to be read from behind a cushion.
Disadvantages: A true horror - grusemoe & disgusting, to be read from behind a cushion.

The Hellbound Heart Clive Barker ABOUT THE BOOK This little book was originally published in 1986, by Dark Harvest as part of an anthology series called Night Visions. This review is for the paperback edition by Harper. It is probably most famous as being the book that the successful horror film, 'Hellraiser', is based on. The film is not completely the same as the book some of the additions were the depiction of the kingdom of Leviathan, and the woman who is torn to pieces with hooks in the beginning of the film. Most importantly the book describes feelings, relationships and thoughts, which the film could not portray. It is defiantly worth reading the book even if you have seen the film. This is a short, fast paced book of 140 pages. THE STORY Frank is an insatiable, debauched ...

Review of The Hellbound Heart - Clive Barker

Sheer Musical Attack!

Advantages: Queen's first really great album of their career
Disadvantages: Not long enough!

Not many bands release 2 albums in 1 year in their entire career, but Queen did it in 1974. The year saw them build on their eponymous debut release in '73 with Queen II in which their rock-opera genes started to show. Later in the year, this album Sheer Heart Attack developed further on that theme, and what a great album.

The track features an instrumental solo from Brian May which was later to be featured in every live show for the rest of the band's career. Next we have Killer Queen. Probably the best known track from the album and featured on Greatest Hits I. A song about a stylish French prostitute complete with finger clicking and swanky guitar. Tenement Funster is a Roger Taylor penned ...

Review of Sheer Heart Attack - Queen

Massive As A Heart Attack!

Advantages: Every single thing that is right with music on a CD
Disadvantages: Doesn't have every Massive Attack song on it ever made

Corr blimey! Imagining quite who wouldn't want to listen to the sonic perfection of Massive Attack is possibly beyond me. Massive Attack have always been a part of my life, although an indirect one, as my mother was a very big fan of all their releases, but it was not until litrally a couple of weeks ago it truly dawned on me the beauty of their work. I was sat in a hot sweaty exam room with 13 other students taking my AS level Music Technology exam, when I turned the page and the next track on the prompt CD began playing Teardrop to my humble ears. For a few minutes, I actually had to stop answeting questions, to simply sit and take this track in properly. I was blown away with a feeling of self worth and accomplishment, when all I had done was listen to my exam piece? Surely no band (especially one frm Bristol, home ...
