Band and backup singers carry this thing HARD! Joe does his best to keep up, but imagine Tina Turner singing these songs.
Started off slow, but patience pays off eventually with this one, some very cool, very dynamic parts.
To whoever submitted this gem - thank you for your service!
Rock, funk and klezmer have never merged so seamlessly!
What the lead singer lacks in range, he makes up for in phlegm filled congestion, and the altruisticy to let his 11 year old write his lyrics. Bonus point for having Wilhem Defoe on the banjo (or whatever that instrument is).
The Garbage album that's already on the list is better, but this is still pretty good.
Didn't hate it. She has a nice voice, melodies a little boring though.
Ticket Inspector is such a fucking bop. The rest of the songs are fast, rawkus and perfect to get fucked to!
Neither funny nor musically good, threw in the towel (with utmost contempt) after only 10 minutes.
Starts off very strong, loses steam towards the end, but never overstays it's welcome. Weaves seamlessly between soul, country and blues. Well worth your time!
I listened to this album a couple of hours ago, but didn't have a chance to write a review. To be honest, I have no recollection of any of the songs or the music as a whole, aside from the fact that it was painfully ordinary.
All the stale baby boomers hating on the gecs, but I bet if your precious Beatles were still around, they'd love this shit!
It's not a genre I'm very familiar with, but it was decently enjoyable from start to finish. Might be worth checking out his other albums.
Like playing hide and seek in the middle of a cold winter night with a pack of hungry wolves.
Singer sounds like Johnny Depp.
If you didn't grow up with this joke of a band in the late 90's, there's a slim chance it'll appeal to you, if you did grow up hearing this nonsense, do the world a favor and keep your miserable memories to yourself!
Every song is a gem, and the finale is so strong! Loved it!
Like a Spanish Gogol Bordello, not bad. Great energy, mediocre songwriting.
Lee Perry is without a doubt the biggest omission from the original list. From reggae to dub to dubstep to second wave ska, to countless electronic subgenres all trace their influences to this incredible mad genius.
Tiis is more for hard core grunge fans than the casual listener, but it does what it does well.
First song was fire but then it got real poppy real fast.
Well I gotta say I was honestly unprepared for this mish mash of metal, symphony and hyperpop. It is indeed like nothing I've heard before, and for that alone 4 stars are well deserved!
This has got to be a troll pick, right?
Music is good, but there is a something that sounds like a dying animal in the room next to the recording studio that the sound engineers should have probably put out of it's misery, or at least make sure it didn't get picked up by the recording.
Oh, yeah! Title track is like having my face buried in a Tony Montana sized pile of cocaine while a hooker eats caviar out of my ass crack.
No amount of slap bass can rescue this angsty shit fest.
