Taking inspiration from little known British band Curve, the formula behind Garbage was simple enough: Industrial strength beats, grungy guitars and ice queen vocals. But in Scottish fireball Shirley Manson the three middle-aged studio whizzes from Wisconsin not only found a muse but a front woman whose infinite charisma and wicked sense of humor--as evidenced by the title of this greatest hits set--gave even No Doubt a solid run in the hits race. For a few years, the group ruled the charts with shiny metallic pop gems like "Queer," "Stupid Girl," and "Only Happy When It Rains," hampered only by some remedial lyrics and a penchant for cribbing other bands' melodies (see: The Pretenders aping "Special"). There's a discernible dip in quality midway through this collection, when at the turn of the millennium Garbage seemingly lost its fire, but at least the group's token James Bond theme, "The World Is Not Enough," is more Shirley Bassey than Sheena Easton. Fans who are already up do date with the originals will want to pick up the special edition set that features a bonus disc of remixes by some of the biggest players on the '90s electronic music scene, including Massive Attack, The Crystal Method, and Unkle. --Aidin VaziriProduct Description
Four albums and seven Grammy® nominations later, Garbage has its first best of collection--Absolute Garbage. Along with the new track Tell Me Where It Hurts, Absolute Garbage features 17 songs of extreme and intense emotion, from Stupid Girl, Queer and #1 Crush to Special, Bleed Like Me and Why Do You Love Me.With the band recently emerging from a hiatus for a live performance and the recording of Tell Me Where It Hurts, Absolute Garbage offers the best of a band that, to quote a lyric from Queer, has been the strangest of the strange, the coolest of the cool.
Customer Reviews:
good mix of garbage.......2007-07-29
One Band's Garbage is another band's Treasure.......2007-07-25
The following "Version 2.0" was almost as good. But the fact that Garbage was so blatant about their homage sometimes dulled the coolness of songs like "Push It" (swiped directly from Salt'n'Pepa) and "Special," which has Manson singing the hook from "Brass In Pocket" over the fade. The singles were great, but the seams were showing.
Perhaps it was that sameness that inspired the band to stretch out on "Beautiful Garbage's" moody and atmospheric material. "Androgyny" (not included here) flirted with R'n'B, but "Cherry Lips/Go Baby Go" was exactly the kind of amalgam of styles that made the best Garbage great. On the other hand, the lack of immediacy made it a commercial drop-off from the first two albums. The band went on hiatus.
When 2005 rolled around, "Bleed Like Me" sounded like a return to form, even if that sound was no longer all too relevant. Still, the slamming "Why Do You Love Me" found Manson deliciously waffling back and forth between anger at the cheating boyfriend and the angst of the chorus "Why don't you love me? It's making me crazy!" Putting a pretty pout to the title track, Shirley Manson taunts us with "you should see my scars." Indeed, we get a band that sounded both battle weary and resilient.
This best of caps with a new song, "Tell Me Where it Hurts," which sounds hot. There is also a remix of "Bleed Like Me's" "It's All Over But The Crying," plus the soundtrack singles "#1 Crush" (Romeo & Juliet) and the James Bond "The World Is Not Enough." The disc does flesh out its running time, so I really can't gripe about songs I'd rather hear. But I will: "Bad Boyfriend" "Androgyny" and "Silence Is Golden." Other side, if you never picked up any Garbage albums, "Absolute Garbage" will fill in the hits for you.
Almost nails it.......2007-07-24
Nearly eighty minutes (the length allowed for a CD) "Absolute Garbage" is very generous, offering some of the band's best work. But even with eighteen tracks, this best-of misses the mark a bit.
The track list is fairly predictable. As the band's first two albums far out-sold the next two, this compilation is skewed in the direction of "Garbage" (1995) and "Version 2.0" (1998) and a little skimpy on selections from the underrated and appreciated "beautifulgarbage" (2001) and "Bleed Like Me" (2005). Therefore, some of the band's later-day singles like "Breaking up the Girl," "Androgyny" and "Sex is not the Enemy" are left by the way-side.
If you are a casual Garbage fan, this compilation is ideal, as it includes all the well-known hits from the band's commercial peak, so as a "greatest hits" the CD works. However, in terms of covering the band's entire career, this compilation leaves a little something to be desired. While "beautifulgarbage" and "Bleed Like Me" didn't have the sales of the first two, they were easily as good, and more of their singles should have been included here. Perhaps a two-CD anthology, with all the hits as well as essential album cuts would have been preferable.
Still, if you aren't really a Garbage fanatic and just want the hits, this CD should be what you're looking for. That said; if you like what you hear and have the money, all four Garbage albums are definitely worth owning. While Garbage might be a `singles band," each of their four studio albums stands-up on its own right, each with its own flavor, and the non-singles on those albums are excellent.
The new song, the melancholy "Tell Me Where it Hurts" sounds "grand," and wouldn't have sounded at all out of place on the Phil Specter-esque, "beautifulgarbage." It's disappointing, however, that the other new Garbage song "Betcha" is not included on this CD and you have to buy the "Tell Me Where it Hurts" single to get it. Hopefully someday Garbage will release a compilation album of all their b-sides and it will be available there.
Two other hits, "#1 Crush" from the "Romeo and Juliet" soundtrack (1996) and "The World is not enough" from the James Bond film of the same name (1999) are thrown in for good measure.

Telarc SACD Sampler: The Absolute Sound
Manufacturer: Telarc ProductGroup: Music Binding: Audio CD Similar Items:
ASIN: B000CRR3Q0 Release Date: 2006-01-24 |
Customer Reviews:
Good for what it is, however narrow........2006-11-09
Telarc is a particularly high quality label that supports SACD. They have a fine list of recordings that extends far beyond these chestnuts.
To appreciate this improvement you need to have a SACD player. So the best use of this disk is to bring it with you to different audio stores to audition their equipment. Over time it functions as a reference disk, or benchmark, as you compare different sound systems.
Because it has only bleeding hunks of well known classical music, it has little other value unless you are interested in classical music but have little experience of it. In that case it may serve as a sampler to lead you to buy complete recordings of these selections. But again you need the SACD player, which you may already have if you are a jazz or rock audiophile. Otherwise, pass it by.

Album Description
Like every musical genre these days, House is undergoing transformation. Internationally acclaimed producer and DJ, Julius Papp, leads this metamorphosis with his newest release, Loveslapped by Julius Papp. Julius presents three tracks, along side other Loveslap artists who believe House should be a musical journey containing all the emotions, feelings and elements of real life. Moving away from the common "colder" synth-based sounds long associated with the genre towards the integration of more live instruments and organic sounds, Julius purposefully tells a story with his song composition and selection.Building on his early musical influences from the 1970's when disco, soul and rock all coexisted on the same radio stations, Julius expanded his musical interests over the years to include everything from dance to old school funk to hip hop and jazz. With this eclectic culmination in mind, he developed a smoother edge, a deeply soulful soothing style of House that is captured in this new release.
Over the past decade, Julius has played radio, maintained packed residencies, and toured throughout the world. For this exciting new mixed CD, Julius drew exclusively from the Loveslap catalog and family of artists to create his realization of how it feels to be Loveslapped by Julius Papp.
Customer Reviews:
Julius Papp continues to inspire!.......2006-12-21
Julius Papp is the only person on both lists.
His vision is always out ahead and around the corner, never redundant or static.
If you talk to him ask him to call me before I sell the story surrounding his first ever commercial offering to the National Enquirer.
Just the story because I still enjoy the tape to this day.
I know the way to San Jose!

Master of love and groove.......2002-10-03
Still the master from back in the day.
Do you know the way to San Jose?
Daddy's all grown up now and aren't we proud?
You must get "Loveslapped" by Julius Papp.
Nothing else compares to this experience!
3.5 for deep house done right.......2002-08-20
Here, Papp again attaches himself to another American micro-label, Loveslap! Recordings, a family of a few highly talented individuals. He leads with his elegant guitar ballad "A Flower Blossoms," quickly trumped by the exquisitely backed vocals from Carrie on sweet love story "Adore" from Santillan, Gray and Brann. Vocal pieces and instrumentals are held in balance, with novel surprises (the French soul of "Belle et Bete") and occasional foray into jam band territory (the organic approach to "Rial".) Final nods go for the guitar-led groover "All I Do."
Except for some unwelcome keyboard interludes on "Azziza" and "Grace," Loveslapped is deep house done right, flowing together in a warm haze but with enough chops for the dance floor.

Customer Reviews:
Sounds like Hell (literally).......2002-01-31
The style moves from death-ambient to neo-martial to medieval folk. Sanctum's "[-]" is a relief from the heaviness, with a Switchblade Symphony style. Other tracks set you adrift in a cavern of shapeless noises, and you have to find your own way out. Hazard's "Who Blew Out The Northern Lights?" sounds like the song you might hear the minute after shooting yourself in the head.
One thing the ambient, hypnotic tracks have in common: you think you're getting bored, then you realize six minutes went by and you've hardly moved.
Disc 2 kicks off with an ambient noise assault (Brighter Death Now's "I Wish I Was A Litlle Girl"). Skip this and save yourself 9:37. The next track has a LITTLE more shape to it. MZ412's ritual piece "N.B.S. act I -Begravning" is a reminder that some of these bands have declared their...allegiance. The next several songs are in much the same vein. ...
The last song actually betrays a sense of humor (cheesy organ, old movie sample, goofy lyrics) more suited to a Rob Zombie release than this sampler.
"The Absolute Supper" is a great buy if you're into the styles mentioned above. If you're new to it, wait until about noon to play it the first time. If you play it in your car while driving at night, you'll feel a cold hand on your shoulder, moving towards your neck. Drive safely.
