| | U2 Under A Blood Red Sky CD U2 Discography of CDs
(2 Customer Reviews)
By the time of this 1983 live EP, U2 had emerged as the socio-politically conscious, self-determined saviors of rock & roll, their passion, musical power and sheer youthful exuberance making them rock idols to countless young (and some not-so-young) fans. This live document shows the ability of the band (particulary the zealous, proselytic Bono) to fire up a crowd with their earnest, anthemic approach. Early U2 classics like "Gloria," "I Will Follow" and the rabble-rousing terrorism protest "Sunday Bloody Sunday" are neighbored with fun obscurities like "Party GIrl" (complete with endearingly awkward guitar solo) and the moody "The Electric Co." As a final gesture of solidarity with his audience/congregation, rock & roll preacher Bono engages them in a spiritually tinged singalong on "40."
Recorded live in Denver, Boston and West Germany on the 1983 "War" tour.
U2: The Edge (vocals, guitar, piano); Bono (vocals); Adam Clayton (bass); Larry Mullen, Jr. (drums).

Under A Blood Red Sky album
$9.99 The times were crying out for a pop star like Lady GaGa -- a self-styled, self-made shooting star, one who mocked the tabloid digital age while still wanting to wallow in it -- and one who's smart enough to pull it all off, too. That self-awareness and satire were absent in the pop of the new millennium, where even the best of the lot operated only on one level, which may be why Lady GaGa turned into such a sensation in 2009: everybody was thirsty for music like this, music for and about their lives, both real and virtual. To a certain extent, the reaction to The Fame may have been a little too enthusiastic, with GaGa turning inescapable sometime in the summer of 2009, when she appeared on countless magazine covers while both Weezer and DAUGHTRY covered "Pokerface," the rush to attention suggesting that she was the second coming of Madonna, a comparison GaGa cheerfully courts and one that's accurate if perhaps overextended. Like the marvelous Madge, Lady GaGa ushers the underground into ...

| | Corinne Bailey Rae Sea CD (2010)
Under A Blood Red Sky album
$13.64 After selling four million copies of her debut album, an effort filled with her precious brand of neo-soul and the uplifting hit "Put Your Records On," singer/songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae lost her husband Jason Rae suddenly and took two years off to grieve and recover before returning with her second effort, The Sea. On the album's opener "Are You Here," lyrics like "Wait till you see those eyes" and "He'll kiss you make you feel sixteen" suggest she's just fallen in love, but the fascinating idea behind The Sea is that it never explains itself, even if there's a new richness in Rae's soft and oh-so-tender voice that suggests something has changed deep inside. As such, the song's "What's it even mean?" question could be the beginning of a love affair or a tragedy, but the following "I'd Do It All Again" is even trickier, as post-argument lyrics written before her husband's tragic loss ("You're searching for something I know/Won't make you happy") take on new meaning . Further confusing the matter, throughout the ...

| | Apoptygma Berzerk You And Me Against The World CD (2005)
Under A Blood Red Sky CD music
$13.25 It's been interesting to listen through the recording career of Apoptygma Berzerk (aka Stephan Grothesk and his evolving cast). This time out members include Geir Bratland, Angel, Anders Odden, and Fredrik Brarud as Apoptygma Berzerk's has mutated further from the cold, Norwegian industrial music of the early 2000s to the more melodic textures of 2002's Harmonizer and now this set, You and Me Against the World. Sure it's still got Grothesk's signature brand of electronic body music (EBM), but the jackboot-textured beats and neo-gothic approach to songwriting of old seems to be giving way to serious craft. Take the first two tracks on this set for example. "Tuning in Again" feels more like a big, modern rock anthem than an industrial or EBM one. Then there's "You Keep Me From Breaking Apart," which feels like an outtake from Depeche Mode's Playing the Angel than it does anything Grothesk has written before -- especially given the prominent placement of guitars in the electronic mix. Moving to the fourth track, "Love to Blame," the keyboards, beats and slide guitars (that could have come from A Flock of Seagulls "I Ran") entwine to create a movement that marries the old new wave to dance music to alternative rock. And the verdict: it's solid, finely written, and beautifully composed. It may alienate some of the ...
