28 Hot 100 hits from 1957-65 feat. Phil Phillips & The Twilights, Ral Donner, Jack Scott, Poni-Tails, Conway Twitty, Lettermen, Fleetwoods, Paul Anka, G-Clefs, Tommy Sands, Johnny Mathis, Neil Sedaka, Frankie Avalon.
Liner Note Author: Rob Finnis.
Teenage Crush features 28 rock and pop ballads from the late '50s and early '60s, most (though not all) falling into the teen idol mold. Now that rock itself is no longer under direct threat from being emasculated by this kind of stuff, listeners can enjoy quality material like Brian Hyland's "Sealed with a Kiss" without a twinge of guilt. But for every "Sea of Love" by Phil Phillips, there are drippy melodramas by Paul Anka, Bobby Vee, Ray Peterson, Frankie Avalon, and Tommy Sands. There are also a few cuts that are adult pop rather than pop/rock, by Julie London, Tommy Edwards, and Johnny Mathis. It's a decent compilation of a kind of pop music that played a big part in its era, but much of it hasn't aged well at all. ~ Richie UnterbergerQ (5/97, p.150) - 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...This doesn't mess about, opting for the finest examples of the genre....while the liner notes come with Ace's usual attention to detail."

$15.75
Import edition of the Welsh nu-metal act's 2004 album features 13 tracks, including the bonus cut 'We Are Godzilla, You Are Japan', plus an enhanced section that contains the video for 'Burn Burn', studio footage, & band interview. Sony.
Lostprphets: Ian Watkins (vocals); Lee Gaze, Mike Lewis (guitar); Jamie Oliver (keyboards, turntables, background vocals); Stuart Richardson (bass); Mike Chiplin (drums).
Asian version contains the bonus cuts "We Are Godzilla" and "Sway," as well as the enhanced video "Burn," studio footage, and interviews.
This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files.
As sonically powerful as Start Something is, and as convincing as Lostprophets' earnest vocalizing and layered instrumental dynamics are, it's just so damn difficult to take the Welshmen seriously when every megabyte of their sonic output is a patent appropriation of the post-grunge movement's most salable proofs. Incubus, Hoobastank, and Linkin Park -- close your eyes and this is what you hear, these groups' defining characteristics jammed like shards of jagged glass into the soft Lostprophets loam. The Mike Patton scream Prophets vocalist Ian Watkins perfected on 2001's Fake Sound of Progress has -- like it did for Brandon Boyd and Doug Robb -- mellowed into a blandly earnest yawp capable of keeping things thick enough for the dudes but still rife with those heartfelt intakes of breath that the ladies love. (Check "Goodbye Tonight" for examples of both styles.) As for the music, Lostprophets' twin guitars are minced and sprinkled into an easily classifiable gruel of not-quite-metal, and the rhythm section just does what it's told. The title track's marriage of an orchestral lilt to its throaty riffing seems, at first, like a satisfactory tribute to the heavy heroics of Iron Maiden or even Dream Theater. But it's soon revealed as a micro-managed cut-and-paste job, its vocals, guitars, and double bass pound separated out and repositioned by the guiding hand of marketability. Single "Last Train Home" is similarly surgical in its precision anthemics. "To every broken heart in here," Watkins emotes over faraway plinks of piano, "Love was once a part but now it's disappeared." And with that, the song's thousand-foot wall of a chorus collapses, showering impossible ...
