LAST OF THE SANE contains covers of songs by Slayer, Led Zeppelin, Dead Kennedys, DYS, Black Sabbath, The Misfits, and The Rolling Stones, as well as demo versions of early Earth Crisis songs.
Last of the Sane marks the return of Earth Crisis to their first real label home, Victory Records, after a brief stay at the somewhat bigger and more metal Roadrunner imprint. The record is a collection of covers from the likes of Black Sabbath, the Rolling Stones, and Slayer, as well as demo versions from the band's own earlier career work. The group sounds a little more genuine during their treatments of actual punk tracks, like the Dead Kennedys' "Holiday in Cambodia" or the Misfits' "Earth A.D." The classic Led Zeppelin cut from Physical Graffiti, "Wanton Song," is the better of the highly restylized classic rock and metal cuts. Demo versions of "Broken Foundation" and "Gomorrah's Season Ends" are as fiery as anything in the band's catalog and a real bonus to this mostly covers collection. Some might argue that Earth Crisis had lost a bit of their edge by the time of this return to Victory -- and the release of this record, along with Slither-- and that argument might indeed be correct. But no matter where it fits in relation to their early career work, Last of the Sane still has to be considered a solid, heavy offering worthy of recommendation. ~ Vincent Jeffries

Last Of The Sane album
$21.00 Comprised of 18 tracks culled from the singer/composer's first three decades, The Very Best of Enya was pieced together by the artist herself, along with longtime collaborators Nicky and Roma Ryan. Luckily, the trio seems enamored by most of the same songs that the general public is, resulting in one of those rare "greatest-hits" collections that goes deep without depriving the listener of the essentials. With tunes like "Orinoco Flow," "Caribbean Blue," and "Book of Days" in the pot and out of the way, it's easier to appreciate hidden gems like "Cursum Perficio," "Boadicea," "Trains and Winter Rains," and "Anywhere Is." Also notable is the inclusion of "May It Be" and a previously unreleased version of "Aníron (I Desire)," both of which originally appeared on the soundtrack for the first chapter of Peter Jackson's beloved Lord of the Rings trilogy. ~ James Christopher Monger

Last Of The Sane album
$12.99 Throwdown have had to eat a lot of crap in recent years because their vocalist, Dave Peters, is doing such a blatant, idolatrous imitation of Pantera/Down vocalist Phil Anselmo. It doesn't help that with 2005's Vendetta they shifted from the thick-necked, straight-edge hardcore of their early catalog to a version of the "groove metal" practiced by Pantera, Trivium, and other modern metal bands. On this latest album, though, Peters occasionally shifts from imitating Anselmo to imitating Anselmo-imitating- Mudvayne's Chad Gray. The music, too, has a lot of Mudvayne's combination of groove ...
| | Stryper Yellow And Black Attack CD (1984)
Last Of The Sane CD music
$8.49 When church leaders were accusing heavy metal of encouraging Satanism, Stryper set out to prove that metal and hard rock could be used to promote Christianity. The southern California band was viewed with suspicion by both ministers (who refused to believe that Christianity and metal were compatible) and fellow headbangers -- and yet, Stryper managed to sell millions of albums to both Christian and secular audiences. Stryper's first release, The Yellow and Black Attack!, showed the rockers to ...
| | Songs From Ragtime The Musical. CDs (1996)
Last Of The Sane music CDs
$16.95 All lyrics written by Lynn Ahrens. All music written by Stephen Flaherty.
RAGTIME THE MUSICAL was nominated for a 1998 Grammy Award for Best Musical Show.
Ragtime-the musical genre-is one of the principal crossroads amongst African-American rhythms, European-American songs and New World sensibility at the turn of the 20th century. As such, it works as a perfect metaphor for this mega-musical that takes on this whole wild and wooly nation. Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty, whose prior collaborations include "Once Upon This Island" and "My Favorite Year," have crafted an ambitious, tumultuous, but upbeat American epic based on the E.L. Doctorow bestseller. Taking their cues from Scott Joplin, Stephen Foster, minstrels, vaudeville and of course their Broadway predecessors, Ahrens and Flaherty effortlessly evoke another time while drawing parallels to another, strangely familiar turn of the century place.
High octane performances are turned in by Audra McDonald as the doomed Sarah, Brian Stokes Mitchell as the righteous Coalhouse Walker, Jr. and Mark Jacoby as the everyman, "Father." A chorus of hundreds (actually only about 60 but who's counting?) livens up the elaborate ensemble scenes. Not to be missed are short but sweet time- setting cameo roles of Henry Ford, Emma Goldman, Harry Houdini, Booker T. Washington, J.P. Morgan and Evelyn Nesbit, the sex symbol at the heart of the first "crime of the century."
Recorded at Manta Eastern Sound Studios, Toronto, Canada on July 15-17, 1996. Includes liner notes by E.L. Doctorow and Marty Bell.
Recorded at the Hit Factory Studio 1, New York, New York on January 26 and February 2, 1998, Manta Eastern Sound Studios, Toronto, Canada in July 1996 and at the Recital Hall of the Ford Centre for the Performing Arts, Toronto, ...

Last Of The Sane album
$39.09 Like a specter of '80s rock & roll coming back to haunt you, Swiss veterans Gotthard keep teasing their hair, waxing their leather chaps, and pumping out glossy, commercial heavy rock as though the '90s and grunge never even happened. To each his own, though, and 2007's refreshingly unapologetic Domino Effect (the group's ninth studio platter) taps into the familiar qualities of the Euro-metal circa 1988 (not quite as fluffy as the American glam set, nor as high energy or hysterical as fast-rising power metal), when dinosaurs like the Scorpions, Sinner, and Krokus (whose bassist actually produced Gotthard's early efforts) roamed the landscape unchallenged. On Domino Effect, Gotthard ...
