| | Nina Hagen Big Band Explosion CD Nina Hagen Discography of CDs
 (1 Customer Review)
German singer Nina Hagen has a unique voice that has attracted a loyal following from music fans who balance on the fringes of the music scene. BIG BAND EXPLOSION is a 12-song representation of her idiosyncratic sound.
A big-band album from a Teutonic dominatrix that used to be pictured dressed in PVC and restraining ropes? Sure, why not? Just don't fall for the pretty bindi wear and butterflies flying out of her mouth on the cover. Nina Hagen is still Nina Hagen and time has made her gritty voice even grittier. The lady was born to entertain, and if you're warm to her in-your-face absurdity, Big Band Explosion is a heck of a lot of fun. You'll be on the edge of your seat as the singer delivers the tunes straight-faced, but you just know that any moment she's going to bust out the brash Nina of old. That's the way the most of the songs go -- almost to the point of being formulaic -- but if anyone is going to pull it off it's Nina. Her greatest moment -- or most grating, depending on your tolerance -- comes at the end of "I Want to Be Happy" when her guttural scatting ends in a cough and an "oh my God!" She's Betty Boop one minute and Godzilla the next, which is why her fans love her. The Leipzig Big Band does a fine job with the accompaniment, but they could have been pushed up a little higher in the mix, and you just have to wonder what the look on their faces was like. Wonder if naughty Nina's untied them yet. ~ David Jeffries

| | Anthrax Among The Living CDs (1987) With DVD; Bonus Tracks; Remastered
Big Band Explosion
$21.94
When Anthrax released AMONG THE LIVING in 1987, the band was a part of a then-burgeoning heavy metal sub-genre called speed or thrash metal. This was an inversion of glam metal. The band members wore worn-out jeans and T-shirts, their long hair was hairspray-free, and not a smudge of make-up was applied to their unsightly mugs. Their music was dense, borrowing speed from punk and hardcore and mammoth guitar riffing from metal, and featured thought-provoking lyrics. AMONG THE LIVING not only served as ...

By licensing these previously unreleased live and studio tracks (plus some previously released but rare material) from the Special Markets division of EMI-Capitol Music, the mail-order company Collectors' Choice Music has legitimized Quicksilver Messenger Service recordings that had floated around on bootlegs and quasi-legal discs for many years. The performances all date from 1967-1968, a period during which Quicksilver consisted of lead guitarist John Cipollina, rhythm guitarist and singer Gary ...

Remember that outta control weedly-weedly solo in the middle of Let's Degenerate's title track? Well, that's exactly what you won't find on We Know How It Goes, Red Planet's first work in three years. Recorded at their leisure in keyboardist/vocalist Chris Dunn's home studio, the album largely loses the racket that used to fray Red Planet's ends (not to mention their live shows), concentrating instead on a tightly crafted set of poppy/rocky gems squirted up with keyboard squiggles, Beach Boys harmonies, and sensibilities matching ...
