Present Music Review

Average Rating: (3.5 out of 5 stars) 3.5 stars

4 stars Great!
I am an old fan of VDGG (since 1970)a band who have been quite erratic in their time. Buying this was an act of faith after so long but a well rewarded one. No surprises on Disc 1,Hammill's distinctive voice and lyrics and a good mature sound...3 stars out of 5 stuff. Disc 2 is something else...a collection of ten instrumentals that really pop the clogs. If anything a bit like Thrak era King Crimson. A definate diversion from what passes for the norm in VDGG's world but a grand trip.

3 stars Very Good
I am a recent fan of Van der Graaf Generator but i must say that their music is simply fantastic.This new album has some very good songs like Nutter Alert and Every Bloody Emperor that will make fans very amazed like i was, beacause i never thought that they still could do it this good.Very Good reunion.i Heard that their show on Albert Hall was very good too with songs like refugees and some songs from world record and Pawn Hearts.

Slough Feg Ape Uprising! CD (2009)

Present album

$10.75

With a 20-year long career and seven full-length albums, SLOUGH FEG are a reference for every real metal fan in United States. As many under-rated American bands, SLOUGH FEG had to first built their reputation in Europe to be appreciated in their homeland. But now they are to be mentioned among the most influential bands for a whole generation of young alternative and metal bands, a position that brought them touring US with THE SWORD in 2008 and having over 150,000 plays on their myspace page. 'Ape Uprising' marks another step ahead in their history, bringing forth once again the main trademarks of SLOUGH FEG's offer: a tragic, emotional, passionate and yet ironic view of life, approaching philosophical issues disguised under their typical, ...

Vault: Def Leppard Greatest Hits CD (1995)

Present music CDs

$10.85

Includes liner notes by Peter Mensch, Joe Elliott, Phil Collen and Rick Savage. When Def Leppard arrived on American shores with 1980's ON THROUGH THE NIGHT, they were lumped with a New Wave of British Heavy Metal that also counted Iron Maiden part of the movement. Yet even then, the Sheffield quintet's inescapable pop sense separated them from their heavier brethren. As the '80's progressed, Def Lep soldiered on through tragedy, lengthy multi-year stays in the studio and quite a few world tours. VAULT culls the hits from the millions of albums they sold by way of MTV ("Photograph"), soundtracks ("Two Steps Behind"), and obvious sexual innuendo ("Pour Some Sugar On Me"). Influenced by the glam postures of Mott The Hoople, Bowie, T. Rex and Slade, Def Lep transformed their love of these artists into a sound shaped by Joe Elliott's raspy vocals, the synergy fueled by Phil Collen (who replaced Pete Willis in '83) and the late Steve Clark's guitars, and Rick Allen's punchy backbeat (seemingly unaffected by his loss of an arm in '85). Heavy guitars, sweet hooks and a rare ability to balance a harder-edged side ("Foolin'") with earnest power ballads ("Bringin' On The Heartbreak") show why Def Lep continue to soldier on long after pop-metal's '80s heyday, and they make VAULT a safe worth cracking.

Hollywood Undead Swan Songs CD (2008)

Present songs

$8.65

Hollywood Undead specializes in an L.A.-flavored high-tech rap metal. If this was 2001 or so, they'd just be another face in the crowd, but the relative dearth of this once-popular fusion genre now makes their funked-up headbanging sound quite original. "Black Dahlia" pushes chugga-chugga guitars to the background as atmospheric synths take center stage as a sung chorus competes with the thuggish ...

Iron Maiden Fear Of The Dark CD (1992) Enhanced CD

Present CD music

$13.85

Although alternative rock was burning up the charts in 1992, longtime metallist outfit Iron Maiden admirably stuck to its guns with FEAR OF THE DARK. This effort follows in the path of 1990's NO PRAYER FOR THE DYING, as Maiden again sticks to more simple compositions, avoiding the more ambitious songwriting tendencies that marked the group's late-'80s work. The album-opening "Be Quick or Be Dead" recalls the work of such younger speed metal bands as Megadeth, while "From Here to Eternity" is one of Maiden's few forays into tales of sex and sin, a la Guns N' Roses. Unfortunately, Singer Bruce Dickinson quit the band after the ensuing tour (although he and guitarist Adrian ...
