While GET A LIFE isn't a classic along the lines of the first three Stiff Little Fingers albums it does contain its share of new classics including "The Night That the Wall Came Down" and "Baby Blue (What Have they Been Telling You?)." But the real gems are the bonus tracks that include splendid unplugged versions of "Silver Lining" and "Wasted Life," plus raucous live versions of "Alternative Ulster" and even the Foxton-penned Jam classic "Smithers-Jones." GET A LIFE proves that there's life after punk rock after all.

GET A LIFE was released during the second phase of one of the greatest punk rock bands of all time, Stiff Little Fingers. As the years went by, various band members had dropped out, eventually leaving founder and lead singer Jake Burns as the only remaining Finger. Fortunately (especially for fans of melodic intelligent pop) ex-Jam bassist Bruce Foxton picked up the slack a few years ago, in addition to drummer Dolphin Taylor, who's a worthy successor to the legendary Jim Reilly.

Stiff Little Fingers: Jake Burns (vocals, guitar); Bruce Foxton (vocals, bass guitar); Dolphin Taylor (vocals, drums).

Ohgr Welt CD  (2001)

Get A Life album
CD $11.19  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
Lost in legal limbo since 1995 when it was originally recorded for Rick Rubin's American Recordings label, former Skinny Puppy frontman Nivek Ogre, in conjunction with producer/programmer Mark Walk, mix techno with modern rock, resulting in the group ohGr and this CD, Welt. A voice sounding like Pete Shelley of the Buzzcocks in some mad amalgam of Kraftwerk and Black Sabbath, Welt is abrasive, gruff, melodic, and dark. Opening with the trancey, dancey "Water," the industrial leanings of this duo are evident from the outset. On first listen the album blurs from one tune to the next, but after repeated spins, each song's identity becomes clearer. It is the nature of electronic music to confuse the senses -- Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music, released on CD by Buddah, is perhaps the best example of that, and though Welt is certainly more cohesive than Reed's wall of noise, this stuff can still pull you into a vacuum. Does the record work as a listening experience, or is it exclusively for dancefloors? That's the paradox of Welt. Borrowing a page from the Talking Heads' ...

Tapping The Vein Damage CD  (2002)

Get A Life CD music
CD $10.65  4.1 stars Audio Samples
Blending the shimmering dream pop of bands like the Cranes with the harsh thrashing of Drain STH, Tapping the Vein is one of the bands who moves along without a specific genre or label. The band hinges on the gorgeous vocals of singer Heather Thompson, who fits perfectly with both styles. Her voice cuts through ...

Razed In Black Damaged CDs  (2003)

Get A Life music CDs
CD $13.65  4.8 stars Audio Samples
Although the band is beloved of goth kids and darkwave aficionados, Razed in Black has always been more complex than that; the group has been featured on electro-clash, neo-goth and disco/techno compilations, and its new album includes stylistic shout-outs to everyone from Depeche Mode (on the lovely "Come Back to Me") to, well, Metallica (the very crunchy "Am I 2 Blame?"). With the help of guest artists that include Spahn Ranch, Neptune (who contributes lyrics on "Misunderstood") and DJ MissGuided, Razed in Black explore house, industrial, hip hop, metal and synth pop without ever sounding like dabblers ...

KMFDM Wwiii CD  (2003)

Get A Life songs
CD $11.49  4 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
The most frustrating thing about WWIII is that it's so darn inconsistent. Kicking off with the Atari Teenage Riot-sounding and George Bush Jr.-sampling title track, WWIII sounds like it's going to be an inspired affair. The Bush-led Iraqi war has given KMFDM plenty of fuel for their disdain toward America circa 2003, so listeners with differing views will find little to like about the lyrics. On the fierce "Jihad," the band paints the human race as "a dying species" that is "poor sick dumb numb feeding on feces." Lucia Cifarelli's vocal and songwriting contributions are excellent (the forgettable tracks don't feature her writing), and her near-pop "From Here on Out" ends up as the highlight of the album. The nihilism keeps up until the silly "Intro" roll-calls the band à la the B-52's' "Song for a Future Generation," and of course, closes the album. It's a cute little ditty, but it's almost dumb enough to wipe away any chance ...

Nightwish Century Child CD  (2002)

Get A Life album
CD $14.69  4.7 stars Top 500 Audio Samples
2003 album from the female fronted Finnish symphonic goth/metal super group. 10 tracks including, 'Bless The Child', 'End Of All Hope' & 'Dead To The World'. Century Media. Possibly the biggest success story in the history of Finnish heavy metal, Nightwish celebrated their second chart-topping album in their homeland with 2002's Century Child, which eventually collected numerous awards and went double platinum (60,000 units in Finland) within a year of release. The group's fourth LP overall, Century Child wisely repeated its predecessors' winning characteristics: symphony-enhanced power metal laced with accessible pop sensibilities (mostly straightforward song structures and romantic lyrics), distinguished by the operatic voice of classically trained singer Tarja Turunen. Undoubtedly the key to Nightwish's remarkable success (and since, hugely influential on countless followers like ...

CD ReviewsIMPACT press -These guys impressed the hell out of me. They're a local Central Florida band from St. Petersburg. The band consists of two bassists(not the only instruments they play) and a guitarist. They take turns with the percussion and lend their own abilities on keyboards, woodwinds, violin, and harmonica tossed around with kickass lyrics and occasionally scat and yodel. They do some sampling ...
