1990's LIBERTY introduced Duran Duran's second full-fledged lineup, with guitarist Warren Cuccurullo (ex-Zappa, ex-Missing Persons) and drummer Sterling Campbell (later in Soul Asylum) replacing Andy and Roger Taylor. The band's creative core of singer Simon LeBon, bassist John Taylor and Nick Rhodes on keyboards remained unchanged, however, and the album really doesn't sound that different from 1986's NOTORIOUS or 1988's BIG THING, except that Cuccurullo and Campbell are much better musicians than the folks they replaced.

Cuccurullo reels off some surprisingly satisfying solos, as on the funk-pop opener "Violence of Summer (Love's Taking Over)." Though the band's commercial fortunes were on a downturn at the time of this album's release, LIBERTY is a more-than-respectable addition to its slick dance-pop canon.

Tessa Niles, Silvia, Claudia.

Duran Duran: Simon LeBon, John Taylor, Nick Rhodes, Warren Cuccurullo, Sterling Campbell.

Additional personnel: John Jones (keyboards, programming); Spike Edney, Stan Harrison, Luis Jardin, Paddy Lorimar, Bernard Fowler, Carol Kenyon,

Rolling Stone (10/18/90) - 3 Stars - Good - "...the libertines are aging beautifully--the best songs [are] unabashed paens to sensualism, conveyed with swanky musical style and uncharacteristically disconnected lyric images....proves that sensual excess is still a thriving concern..."
Spin (11/90) - "...shows the band in its most appealing form in years....Duran Duran once again successfully straddle the line between dance and rock..."

3 stars This Album Kicks My Arse
This album, like all Double D's albums, wails and is, like clock work, overlooked again. But who needs the masses to determine something is good? A lot of people like Michael Jackson and Culture Club, so what does that say? Gees. Warren was allowed to unleash his ripping guitar on this album. Wild times. Sterling fired up a bowl of drums, and the three foundation members produced the hooks. This album is well-in.

3 stars pedstrian, but nice attempt
Grasping at straws in some of their most trying times the boys attempt to toughen up their sound with skectchy results , fist two tracks are nice and hothead sparkles for a bit with the guitar overall though the shimmery neo-funk Duran was known for absolutly vanih some nice attempts at evelution, overall for completists only

4 stars They haven't been this good since.
Short of Rio, Liberty is Duran Duran's best album, especially considering it followed Big Thing, which is perhaps their worst. The official addition of Warren Cuccurullo on guitar and Sterling Campbell on drums brought an energy to the band that had been lacking since the early 80s. Liberty is their hardest rocking album, quelling the belief they're a synth-pop band, but their catchy melodies and memorable hooks remain. True, there were no hits off this album, but it was released at a time when grunge and hip-hop were starting their strangle hold on popular music. Four years earlier or four years later, this album could have been huge. Every song stands well on its own (with the notable exception of the horrible Can You Deal With It), yet complement eatch other very well. Here's hoping the newly reunited Duran Duran will produce an album this tight and this fun.

Of the "big four" original thrash bands (the other three being Metallica, Anthrax, and Megadeth), Slayer was the least compromising and most consistent. As such, 2009's WORLD PAINTED BLOOD recalled more than the title of Slayer's 1986 masterpiece REIGN IN BLOOD; it shared the earlier album's ferocious aggression and trademark speed metal-meets-hardcore ...

The latest album from Swedish doom rockers Katatonia, their first studio effort since 2006, is as moody and beautiful as their other latter-day work. The group's career can be marked in two stages based on the condition of singer Jonas Renske's vocal cords -- basically, after the band's first two albums, he developed health problems that prevented him from performing harsh death growls, and ever since the band has moved in an increasingly melodic direction, even covering songs by Will Oldham and Jeff Buckley. It's unsurprising to learn that Opeth's Mikael Åkerfeldt helped out by performing the harsh vocals on Katatonia's Brave Murder Day ...

The finest example of perfect disco pop, and a record that should be prescribed to musical snobs and manic depressives. The album is a true ambassador of what pop music can be.

The superlative repackaging and remastering undertaken by Ryko has put the original three-part, two-record set of this magnificent nonsense tale together for the first time. This is back to the madness of Freak Out, with more pop and doo-wop bursting through all the complicated stuff, letting you know that Zappa could write a hit single, if he could be bothered to do so. Joe's Garage is a hoot and harmlessly pornographic. The sleeve-note states that it is "a stupid story about how the government is trying to do away with music." It is absolutely no coincidence that throughout, ...

Prior to this, Aksel Schaufler had only a pair of 12" releases credited entirely to himself. However, if you were to harpoon all of his appearances on Kompakt compilations and Kompakt Extra releases, the end result -- nearly two hours of material -- would anthologize one of the label's most prolific, consistent, and ever-developing producers. Excepting pop ambient, he has served up the most shining examples of each of the label's specialties, glammy shuffle-tech, luscious microhouse, and full-on electro-pop included. Nothing on Schaufler's first album, made entirely of new tracks, shakes you to your core like "Fieber" or steals your breath like "Mushroom." This has nothing to do with a slide in quality and everything to do with the way the album is designed. Both structure and scope verify that Schaufler, much like Hall of Fame superpitchers Satchell Paige and Sandy Koufax, is at his most effective when he's finessing us. Rather than put this album on for the sake of an instant jolt, you'll be more inclined to settle in and leave it on all day or night. A rough middle patch, including a lovelorn tone poem that plods and a throwaway rendition of "Fever," is nothing a skip button can't fix. Disregarding that, over 45 minutes of lavish European romanticism await. If labelmates Closer Musik are the sleazy upfront seducers, Schaufler is the slightly aloof gent whose ruse is mysteriously alluring. His vocals, present throughout, owe in equal amounts to Bryan Ferry and Marc Bolan, with the lyrics entering the mind like stream-of-consciousness fragments written by the former -- "Happiness"' "I want happiness/I seek happiness/To cause you happiness/To be your happiness" could help make for a coda to ...
