(1 Customer Review)
In honor of the band's 10th Anniversary, Oingo Boingo re-recorded their favorite tracks on a live soundstage. The CD contains 9 bonus tracks, 2 never-before recorded songs and two songs from Danny Elfman's solo album (SO-LO).
To commemorate Oingo Boingo's first decade of existence, the band recorded a two-disc live set of their favorite songs. The fact that there was no audience for these sessions--they were recorded in the band's rehearsal space--is telling; Oingo Boingo primarily existed for their own benefit. Never interested in hit records or magazine-cover stardom, the band simply played their quirky, Zappa-and-Devo-influenced horn rock for their own amusement.
On the other hand, BOINGO ALIVE isn't at all self-indulgent, and in fact is one of the band's most engaging and enjoyable records. The performances are filled with good humor--singer/songwriter Danny Elfman almost bursts out laughing during several songs--and the performances, especially those of the horn section, with guest Zappa sideman Bruce Fowler, are both tight and relaxed. The CD version contains two brand new songs and two songs from Elfman's album SO-LO.

$32.99 New York post-punk band Diffuser's 2003 album MAKING THE GRADE features "Only In the Movies" and "Get It On."
Among its energetic bursts of poppy, punkish energy, Diffuser's 2001 effort, Injury Loves Melody, still clung to vestiges of the band's noisier indie rock past. It made for a more ambitious record, but one also fraught with continuity errors -- Diffuser couldn't decide whether they wanted to go all-out with the pop screech. If that was the ...
