| | Fort Minor Rising Tied CD Fort Minor Discography of CDs
 (4 Customer Reviews)
A hip-hop/electronica outing by Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda (aka Fort Minor), THE RISING TIED features surging synth lines, tight beats, and moody string passages (arranged by Beck's father, David Campbell). In addition to Shinoda's own thoughtful and potent rhymes, this 2005 album boasts cred-boosting guest shots from Black Thought (of the Roots), Common, John Legend, and others. Far from a vanity project, the disc reveals Shinoda's behind-the-boards skills, particularly on the standout track "Believe Me," which also benefits from Eric Bobo's frenetic Latin percussion. Although THE RISING TIED will undoubtedly appeal to many Linkin Park fans, the inventive and eclectic record is likely to find enthusiastic listeners beyond the nu-metal set.
Fort Minor: Mike Shinoda.
Additional personnel: Common, John Legend, Kenna, Styles of Beyond, Black Thought, Joe Hahn, Holly Brook.
Rolling Stone (No. 988, p.120) - 3 out of 5 stars - "...[D]ark, rock-schooled beats...brassy rhymes...sleek boom-bap, complete with agitated pop choruses and deft instrumental ornamentation...."
Spin (p.107) - "Linkin Park's cofrontman releases a surprisingly respectable emo-rap album exec-produced by Jay-Z..." -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly (No. 852, p.81) - "...Flowing like eminem on Ambien, he blows up about the state of the world over brittle hip-hop beats..." - Grade: B
Uncut (p.112) - 3 stars out of 4 -- "[A] credible slab of tough, organic hip hop, bound to please fans of Linkin Park and Eminem alike."

Rising Tied Music Review Average Rating: (4.5 out of 5 stars)   Fort Minor Rises
The Rising Tied... Now i listen rock, punk, even tho this is a hip hop album, i like it still. I like the hard songs from Linkinpark so i noticed this album too. The Lyrics are excelent, songs are diffrent, "Where'd you go" is soft, Believe me, Remember the name are fast and joyable, Red to black, In stereo are difficult theme songs. The album is great to anyone from rap to Rock. Have fun

| | Meet The Spartans DVD (2008) Full Frame; Widescreen; Dubbed; Subtitled; Unrated
Rising Tied CD music
$10.19 
Writers/producers/directors Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer (DATE MOVIE, EPIC MOVIE) use the film 300 as the basis for their latest spoof. Born to be the perfect Spartan, Leonidas (Sean Magiure) faces numerous trials en route to becoming a man, including a face-off with the penguin from HAPPY FEET. Once he has proven himself, Leonidas not only becomes king, but also marries superhot (and slightly slutty) Margot (Carmen Electra). When Leonidas learns that Persia's King Xerxes (Ken Davitian, BORAT) plans to make Sparta his own, he has his captain (Kevin Sorbo, HERCULES) recruit Sparta's finest and prepare them for battle against invading Persian forces. Unfortunately, that amounts to only 13 half-naked men with painted-on abs who literally prance to their destination. To make matters worse, Spartan councilman Traitoro (Diedrich Bader) is, well, a traitor. Still, Leonidas and his men face their enemy in battle, riffing on STOMP THE YARD, GHOST RIDER, TRANSFORMERS, and numerous other films along the way, as well as the video game GRAND ...
