(154 Customer Reviews)
RBD lays down a radio-ready version of Latin pop that has its roots in contemporary, mainstream American rock and in classic pop on the order of ABBA. The group, which consists of three women and three men, has telegenic good looks, immediately accessible melodies, and--most importantly--a practice of rotating vocal duties that represents each singer's lead abilities and the group's impressive knack for choral singing. REBELDE kicks off with the mid-tempo, soft-to-heavy rock of the title track, and goes on to mix things up with sing-song dance-pop (as on the chorus of "Otro Dia Que Va"), New Wave-inflected rockers (""Futuro Ex-Novio"), and sweeping power ballads ("Salvame"). Highly polished and ripe for Top 40 success, RBD pushes all the right Latin-pop buttons on REBELDE.
The Brazilian version of Rebelde features the same songs as its Spanish-language counterpart, except they're all sung in Portuguese by RBD. The sequencing has been changed slightly, with the three big hits moved to the first three positions: "Rebelde," "Figue en Silêncio" ("Solo Quédate en Silencio"), and "Um Pouco Desse Amor" ("Un Poco de Tu Amor"). Beyond those key differences, the Brazilian version of Rebelde remains a nice little album of catchy pop/rock, anchored by the aforementioned hits along with a few other appealing confections, namely "Ensina-Me" ("Enséñame"), "Otro Día Que Va," and "Salva-Me" ("Sálvame"). The songs here on Rebelde are the ones that started it all. [An Edicao Portuguese was also released.] ~ Jason Birchmeier

Rebelde album
$6.39 This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine."
Somewhat more mysteriously, Rolling Stone Ron Wood also turns up on what sounds dangerously close to a lounge version of Jimi Hendrix's "Little Wing," but this minor faux pas is redeemed by the Irish folk medley "Joy of Life/Trout in the Bath" which arguably features more full-on Irishness than the Dublin production of RIVERDANCE. There's also a lovely rendition of Neil Young's "Only Love Can Break Your Heart" that's topped only by Ron Wood's reappearance on a finale of the Stones' "Ruby Tuesday."

Rebelde music CDs
$10.39 To commemorate their first-ever live tour, RBD released a CD/DVD, Tour Generación RBD en Vivo. The featured performance includes all the key songs from Rebelde, the group's debut album: "Rebelde," "Otro Día Que Va," "Enséñame," "Un Poco de Tu Amor," "Sólo Quédate en Silencio." Plus, there's a cumbia version of "Rebelde" that closes the show and a video, "Sólo Quédate en Silencio." All of this adds up to everything a fan could want from a CD/DVD like this. As for the performance itself, it's well choreographed but not especially well sung. The boys in particular sing poorly. But the girls do a good job, especially on the ballad "Sálvame." It helps that the crowd sings along on many of the songs, especially the hits. This frenzied crowd response is mixed loudly, to the point where it sometimes overwhelms RBD's singing, not necessarily for the worse. In any event, fans aren't going to quibble about the singing. Much like the screaming ...

Rebelde songs
$9.75 It's important to remember that ABBA were enormous stars in the Latin music market during their heyday, even going so far as to re-record most of their hits in Spanish. The debut album by the Mexico-based three-boys/three-girls vocal act RBD shows a remarkable similarity to ABBA's more mature later work. The songs are uniformly catchy, ...

| | Andres Calamaro Nadie Sale Vivo De Aqui CD (1989) Import; Limited Edition
Rebelde music CDs
$9.55 Argentine bad boy Andres Calamaro's 1989 album includes "Vietnam" and "Ni Hablar."
The Argentine reissue preserves the orignal artwork in a paper sleeve.
This album is considered by many to be Calamaro's best. The year of its release was one of the worst for the Argentinean rock scene. The country was involved in a critical economic situation, with an inflation that reached nearly 200% monthly! The album title really meant it: "Nobody gets out alive from here!" With this situation, it doesn't seem strange that the musical releases were almost ignored. The commercial failure of this album led Calamaro to go overseas and create Los Rodriguez in Spain. Well acclaimed by the critics, the album showed a lyrical improvement that can be heard in songs like "Señal Que Te He Perdido" (which was included in Man Ray's debut album, produced by Calamaro a year before) and "Nuestro Vietnam." The ballads were mingled ...

| | Exmortem Nihilistic Contentment CD (2005)
Rebelde album
$10.65 The Danish death metal scene isn't nearly as well known beyond the country's borders as that of their Scandinavian brethren, which is one of the main reasons why Exmortem have been releasing albums consistently for over a decade without penetrating worldwide consciousness beyond a small cult following. Frankly, the other is that they're not really that interesting. From the curiously blasé album title onward, Nihilistic Contentment is strictly death metal-by-numbers; technically, these ten tracks are faultless in terms of speed, precision, and flash, but there's very little happening here in terms of listener engagement. Exmortem are the death metal equivalent of all of those samey third-string punk bands who have memorized every second of the Ramones' first four albums, ...

$8.05 | | London Jewish Male Choir 80 Years CD (2006)
Rebelde CD music
$23.29 In the realm of Jewish music, it's probably not male choruses that are thought of immediately. Nonetheless, they do exist and often carry some mix of traditional Jewish forms and more straightforward choral technique. Here, the London Jewish Male Choir is presented in a series of snapshots. The choir is comprised of a number of singers, with a loading of professional cantors at the core. What makes the album nice, though, is that instead of simply reprising some of the better songs over the 80 years of the chorus (minus a few during WWII), they showcase recordings of the chorus in its various stages. The album opens with five pieces from the current incarnation, using Steven Leas as the soloist of choice. A couple of tracks are then presented from 1928 (near the creation of the outfit), 1950 (soon after the re-formation after the war), and at some points every few years through the next couple of decades. One can actually hear the progression of the aesthetics favored as conductors and singers changed over the years, while the quality stays essentially the same. A nice album for devotees of male choruses, though fans of more traditional Jewish forms ...

| | Screaming Blue Messiahs Live At The BBC CD (2009) (Import) United Kingdom
Rebelde album
$17.35 Though only three Screaming Blue Messiahs BBC sessions are included on this compilation, it actually has quite a bit of material, owing mainly to the inclusion of 11 songs recorded in concert (as opposed to in a studio) on March 30, 1985. Otherwise, the CD has three songs apiece from more standard BBC sessions (in both length and sound) from July 6, 1985, and November 12, 1987. The March 1985 session in particular might hold special interest for fans, as it captures the Screaming Blue Messiahs in a live situation not long after their recording career started, including a couple of songs they'd never put on their official releases. The sound on that portion is good, though not wonderful, on a set dominated by songs from their debut EP, Good & Gone, and their debut LP, Gun Shy, which had yet to be released when this concert was recorded. Some fans might appreciate the rawness of this session, as well as the inclusion of "Vision and Blues" (recorded at the Good & Gone sessions but not issued) and the more impressive Bill Carter original "Destroyer" (which the band never did put on one of its official releases). In all honesty, however, the unconverted might be unimpressed by the lack of variety in their rough bluesy punkish rock at this stage, and the more polished sound and performances of their subsequent Beeb sessions are actually preferable. That's even true of the one from just a few months later in July 1985, where even the two songs reprised from the March 1985 concert simply benefit from more creative tempo changes, eerie guitar textures, and clearer singing. All three of the songs on the November 1987 session are taken from their second full-length LP, Bikini Red, including of course a rendition of their modest U.K. hit "I Wanna Be a Flintstone" -- which, while a little ways from their rawest roots, is simply the most memorable tune here. The package is embellished by lengthy historical liner notes ...
