Extremist French art-metal duo Carnival in Coal returns with Collection Prestige, an album that shows that Arno Strobl and Axel Wursthorn aren't willing to stay in one musical space. The assaultive death metal that was the primary basis of their earlier albums is still present, but it's been dialed back considerably to let the other aspects of their brainy but relentlessly smart-alecky musical purview come to the fore. As a result, "Fuckable" alternates grindcore (complete with Cookie Monster vocals, also heard on several other tracks) with a playful fake-disco verse and the chanted refrain "F*ck me, I'm brainless!" Later, "Cartilage Holocaust" expands on the tongue-in-cheek dance-pop, performing an entire song in a giddy approximation of the slick late '70s with suitably horrific lyrics, while "Delivery Day" and "Ohlala" sound closer to '80s-vintage Residents, or perhaps the early Residents-associated albums by Swiss avant-disco merchants Yello. Then "Promenade" ends the whole thing with an orchestral daze that sounds like Edgard Varèse played by drunken chimps. As always, this is pretty weird stuff, but because it's more musically varied than Carnival in Coal's earlier records, it sounds weirder (and more entertaining) still. ~ Stewart Mason

With its lame artwork and K-Tel-like boast of "18 More Chart-Topping Dance Floor Hits!" Pure Trance, Vol. 2 looks like a stinker that other bandwagon-jumping labels would bother to dress up a little more. Water Music should enlist at least one of the many rave-flyer designing iMac users because the collection does a decent job of collecting credible trance. DJ Tiësto, Armin van Buuren, and Paul van Dyk are some of the big names who contribute a tune or remix, and the guest vocals of Sinéad O'Connor, Clannad, and Natacha Atlas sweeten the deal. Some of the ...

Collection Prestige CD music
$6.39
In the winter of 1998, Verbal Kent set out to find a group of musicians who were interested in being involved in a live hiphop band. What resulted was The Organic Mind Unit (OMU), a five-piece live hip-hop band, comprised of two MCs as well as a rhythm section including bass, keyboards, and drums. The MCs, Dan Weiss (Verbal Kent) and Mike Palmer (Willis Drummond II) write lyrics with equal concern for content, rhythmic structure, and phrasing, using each of these elements to create a strength of character which is consistent in all of their verses. The musicians, Shaye Robeson (bass), William Kirk (keys), and Anthony Reid (drums) combine the sensibilities of a jazz combo with an extensive knowledge of varying musical ...
