Product Description
Bangzilla, is nothing short of title reference. It's Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. Mike vs. MechaMike. Action packed, kick drums to the chest, hard bass for the booty, and all the scratchin' is bound to put a hurtin' on them. If you can't get a feel for that, pop it in your car CD player and see how fast your speedometer moves. The uptempo beats bang their way through Mike's sonic escapade. Piece the narratives together for story time in your mind. It's an adventure Alice in Wonderland couldn't mess with. Protect your neck. The battle is on.

Good stuff........2005-01-30

An incredible album. Although I know him from Hello Nasty and To the Five Boroughs, this is my first actual Mix Master Mike album and I must say it's amazing what Mix Master Mike can do when released from the production overview of others.

Think of it as a hip-hop/turntablism opera of sorts. Each track is distinct and yet they flow seamlessly into each other, each successive one elaborating on the last, finally concluding in a dramatic bass explosion (if you will) on track 13, The Joust.

Alright, MIKE IS BACK!!! I don't think Mike is capable of dropping a bad album, and this one is no acception. The whole damn LP is DOPE! you can really tell he worked on the production side alot more this time. His beats BANG in the stereo and the scratching is straight NASTY. standard MMM is always better than most's top notch. i just wish the beastie's would let him do more of his thing on their albums. to the 5 boroughs let him shine alittle...but they should let him have a track like "babu in deep concentration" on the new dialated LP. But nonetheless, this man is DOPE. BUY THIS AND CRY TEARS OF JOY! NO BOOTLEGGING!!!!!

Mix master mike has really worked on his beats this time. i give him props for that. what i miss is like a scratch-theme in each track like dj revolution, dj premier are doing using acapellas and making own lyrics, sentences with it.
Overall the album is ok, but not a classic.

The Mix Master.......2004-10-25

Mix Master Mike has done it again, with his latest album Bangzilla he demonstrates once again that he is the true Mix Master. Bangzilla is the Mix Master on two turn tables making his songs fresh from many cuts, alot like the style of Anti-Theft Device. I would recommend this album to anyone interested even the slightest in turntableizm. A must buy!
