Sarah's Mixed Up

Advantages: All the Sarah Mclachlan greats remixed
Disadvantages: There should be more songs remixed too

...has fun on stage. Remixed is a compilation CD filled with some of the great Sarah tracks, remixed for very upbeat dancy sounds. By Arista 2003. My actual copy was purchased at the concert at London's Royal Albert Hall. It is available in most music stores, ebay and other internet Music Sites (also on Sarah's wesite www.sarahmclachlan.com) Tracks:- 1. Fear (Hybrid's Super Collider Mix) 9:00 2. Sweet Surrender (DJ Tiesto Mix) 7:02 3. Angel (Dusted ...
...Mix) 10:19 Mixed and remixed by some great, popular and well known DJs the CD is filled with fantastic music. Each track is still individual to Sarah - clear which track it is but mixed in fantastic ways to make them extra special and a pleasure to listen to. Silence (from Deleriums album Karma) is excellent and the true dance classic. Any true Sarah fan should have a copy of Remixed in their CD collection. ...

Oh Dear!

Advantages: Er...
Disadvantages: Awful covers of classic songs.

Inside (yes, inside), this is subtitled "Metal vs Electronica". Oh, God. What have I let myself in for? The temptation of hearing Lemmy sing Acca Dacca was just too much for me to resist when I saw this in Virgin Paris (he said casually). The first track - "Back In Black" is probably the best. Or least worse. The vocals by Joe Lyn Turner are excellent, and JLT would probably make a great replacement if Beano ever decides to retire. The guitar work ...
...though. Lemmy's growls are certainly interesting enough to hear on "It's A Long Way To The Top", but the guitar (by Jake E Lee) and - even worse - the drum machine are beginning to get annoying. Even the "crowd" noise is dubbed in. The rest just gets too depressing to report on, as classic after classic is wrecked. The culprits include Dee Snider, Kevin Dubrow, John Corabi, Whitfield Crane and Stephen Pearcy. All very guilty men. Why did I buy ...

Great spin off

Advantages: Upbeat, not cliche
Disadvantages: none

...was already in love with Silent Alarm itself. The reason for this album I am not sure, but I am glad they put it out there as an added extra. There are also some tracks on here which are not on the Silent Alarm Album (Tulips and compliments). Sometimes when artists release remix albums, they are sheer crap. However the songs from the previous album have been taken and crafted into songs which are far more upbeat, and are worthy of a round of applause. ...

Pop-Stars? More like Flop-Stars!

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Watered Down, Teenage, Stupid

I'm not giving Metro Station a bad review just because Trace Cyrus is Miley Cyrus's brother. The reason I am giving them a bad review is because the album they produced is just awful. It shouldn't even be called music. It is watered-down pop punk that doesn't really deserve much recognition. The lyrics are unimaginative and and are just cheesy to the point of being unbearably annoying. Unfortunatly, songs such as "Shake It" have wormed their way ...

Arkansas rockers produce immense album

Advantages: Original, Tuneful, Powerful
Disadvantages: Depressing

Evanescence are one of the bands in an obscure section of rock that action get media attention. This is unusual. The thing that definitely stood out to me on the album was Amy Lee's (vocalist) ability to use classic instruments to boost the originality. I will review this album, track-by-track. **Going Under** This song is one of the heavier tracks of the album. The tempo of this track is generally slow but it is still good. Lee's vocals in this ...
...at the same time. **Bring me to Life** This song is the one that launched Evanescence into the limelight. It was a #1 in Britain for four weeks which surprised a lot of people because of their genre. This chart postition was definitely well deserved as it is a powerful song. Lee's vocals are assisted by Paul Mccoy as an extra in the chorus. **Everybody's Fool** This song has a more mainstream feel to it than other songs on this album. The intro ...
