Brad Paisley's previous release, Mud on the Tires, was the sort of landmark album nearly every artist has difficulty topping. Not so this time. On Time Well Wasted, Paisley's voice--never overwhelmed by overmixed instruments (a problem dogging many current vocalists)--remains keenly focused. There's quality material in abundance, heavy on originals and delightfully quirky bonus tracks. The album's first hit, Paisley's self-penned "Alcohol," has the potential to become a lasting anthem in a genre where booze songs long ago became an art form. Guy Clark's "Out in the Parkin' Lot," a duet with Alan Jackson, sounds more organic, less contrived than most Music Row pairings. The same applies to "When I Get Where I'm Going," a spiritual duet with Dolly Parton. As in the past, Paisley's country-jazz Telecaster prowess (phemonenal on the dazzling instrumental "Time Warp") remains remarkable, as does his insistence that his sidemen get ample space to shine. Such assets set Paisley apart, as does his ability to make real creativity commercially successful in a Nashville concerned mainly with the latter. --Rich Kienzle

Another Fine Piece of Music for Your Collection.......2007-07-19

This is a very diverse CD with some great music that should be a welcome addition to anyone's music collection. Brad's unique sense of humor always comes through in his music and make his CDs fun to listen to. A nice mix of the fun and serious lyrics that keep you listening over and over. Another great piece of work by Mr. Paisley.
If you have not seen him in concert it is a real treat - he is a master musician and his wonderful sense of humor makes your concert experience a fun one.

Bright Paisley.......2007-06-24

When I first saw Brad Paisley I thought he was a hayseed singer with a hat too big for his head. That was though until he opened his mouth and sang. He has a warm honey voice that throughly enjoyable to listen to. This CD is varied with ballads, up-tempo to humorous. His funny songs are a favorite of mine. I don't think anyone will be disappointed in this CD

"If, after hearing my songs," Lehrer says in this disc's liner notes, "just one human being is inspired to say something nasty to a friend, or perhaps strike a loved one, it will all have been worth the while." Makes him sound like a modern punk, eh? Not so, though. Lehrer, ever the king of jolly vitriol, recorded these still potent parodies in the '50s--and the best of them, "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park," "The Masochism Tango," and "The Elements" (which joins science with Gilbert & Sullivan) remain both nasty and striking. Musically, Lehrer comes across like a demented Cole Porter, wrapping sophisticated, showy tunes around his acerbic jokes. Lyrically, he's a clear forebear to folks like Phil Ochs and Barry Crimmins, who also cloak their commentary in comedy. --Michael Ruby

The dawning of a great social wit.......2007-05-25

Tom Lehrer is a bit of late find for me. But having discovered his bountiful vineyard, I am drinking him down to the dregs.

Lehrer's brand of knowing, culturally-savvy and savage wit are are on moderate display in this collection. There are the classics ("Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" and "The Elements"), plenty of little-known but sparkling gems, but a weak piece or two ("Bright College Days" and "She's My Girl") that have little to say. Lehrer's wit is dry and self-deprecatory, and his music is best when it lampoons the excesses of his age or when it hilariously upends a cherished piece of culture. "Oedipus Rex" is a terrific piece that presumes (rightly, as far as it late-1950s audience went) a certain familiarity with the classics. The leering repeated tag line about the king "who REALLY loved his mother" is still eyebrow-archingly naughty today. "It Makes a Fellow Proud to be a Soldier" is Lehrer's reflection on the odd set of misfits, morons and maniacs whom he met on a stint in the Army. "We Will All Go Together When We Go," one of the more topical of his works, could be considered a pre-antiwar song, putting a comic face on the global annihilation promised by "The Bomb." With lines like, "When the air becomes uraneous, we will all go simultaneous," Lehrer shows how nuclear war, for all its ability to terrify, is fundamentally ludicrous and perhaps worthy of opposition.

Other pieces have less topical import, but showcase Lehrer's piano virtuosity. After shredding the value of banal folk tunes like "Clementine," Lehrer demonstrates how the old standard would have been played by Cole Porter, Mozart and one of the "cool" composers of the Beat era. While he is at it, he conveys his own unfortunate bias against modern music. Poised as he is on the cusp of the decline of classical music and the advent of rock, Lehrer is none too respectful of the new genre, sneeringly referring to it as "childrens' music." Even in 1959, this sentiment met with subdued laughter and only polite applause. At age 30, Lehrer's musical heros (Gilbert and Sullivan, among them) were quickly becoming irrelevant, and he can appear as a bit of a fusty dinosaur. But never mind that. For every knock-out punch that doesn't connect, there are ten that do. "Masochism Tango" is still freakish, nearly 40 years after it was written. The writer of "The last time I needed twenty stitches to sew up the gash, that you made with your lash" is no homebody, by the standards of his time or of our own.

Lehrer loosened up quite a bit between this offering and the later "That Was the Week That Was," where his political wit and insight were most fully developed. Yet this collection is quite worthwhile in its own way, featuring Lehrer's tight lyrics and musical versatility. Hearing the reaction of the audience is definitely a plus. It's fun to hear what made a 1959 audience howl -- even jokes that are obvious and lame by today's standards were evidently quite fresh a half-century ago.

When this recording hit the streets, Tom Lehrer's short career had yet to peak, and his best output was still ahead of him. Pity that voices like his have been so rare. Happy are we who can appreciate, and perhaps hope to emulate, his style and outlook!

AN evening wasted with Tom Lehrer.......2006-08-14

An evening wasted, no - an album wasted - ALL these songs can be got on "Songs and more Songs by Lehrer, plus 10 or more freebies. Total waste!

Life is skittles and life is beer........2006-05-01

Tom Lehrer was the most brilliant song satirist of the 20th century. This live album features the same songs that were on his studio album "More of Tom Lehrer". But this album arguably is better than that one, since you get to hear Lehrer's introductions to the songs, as well as the audience reactions. Anyway, this is a very funny album, and it's a "must get" for fans of musical comedy.

Lehrer is hilarious!.......2005-12-30

This CD is hilarious! How can you possibly deny the genius of tunes like "Poisoning Pigeons in the Park" ("When they see us coming the birdies all try and hide, but they still go for peanuts when coated with cyanide"...) or "The Elements" (the periodic table set to Gilbert and Sullivan, as you probably know by now). Lehrer's black humor and commentary always makes me laugh when I pop this disc into my player, and as an added bonus, this is a live disc, so we are treated to Lehrer's monologues as well as his songs, which are usually just as funny as his songs, if not more so. Highlights include the story of Dr. Samuel Gall, inventor of the gallbladder, and a bit about his friend Henry ("He spelled his name H-E-N-3-R-Y. The 3 was silent, you see"...)who wrote novels ("about a young necrophiliac who finally achieved his boyhood ambition by becoming coroner").
Even though these tunes were written in 1959, they haven't dated, and still remain as fresh and funny today as they were 46 years ago. If you enjoy black humor, and like to laugh, what are you waiting for? Buy this, and/or any other album by Tom Lehrer, today!

Quality always holds up........2004-07-16

One reason why the great songs of Tom Lehrer hold up after all these decades is that some of the issues they cover have not gone away. The Cold War may be over, but the weapons remain. And anyway there are other ways Armegeddon may arrive. Misunderstanding between the sexes will never vanish.

But I think the real reason Tom Lehrer's "An Evening Wasted..." has held up so well for so long is that his humor and craft are top quality. We still read Mark Twain's acerbic satires. Will Rogers is still an American icon, while others have come and gone. And in the tradition of Twain and Rogers, Lehrer, while commenting on contemporary conditions, takes them and twists them in a way that is nothing short of brilliant. And, without realizing it, has given us a better understanding of his times, while making us laugh (or weep) at ours.

Forget all that heavy stuff: this is just a darned funny collection!

Catchier than ebola on a plane...........2007-06-10

A day after I saw these girls live in Minneapolis... I know I will be a life long fan. Brilliance is not a strong enough adjective to describe this trio of 60's Motown throwback polka-dotted daisies. Song after song they bring back a style that could use new era resurrection. Catchy songs that seem simple and yet have been crafted perfectly to fish fans of young and old. These girls are not your average hipster indie band. They are radio ready and have yet to crack it outside the UK. They are primed to take over... They are the Pipettes.

They're just here to make you dance, not to make you think.......2007-06-08

Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me is a buoyant four-song precursor to The Pipettes' upcoming US album simply titled We Are The Pipettes, due to hit our shores on August 28th, which was released last year overseas to great critical acclaim, and even greater public support, which is just what The Pipettes want.

"We're not fussy indie snobs. Our main objective is mass appeal. We just don't fit in with the current pop mainstream, but that's because somewhere along the line, a misconception has occurred that makes people think pop can't be made by people like us, that manufactured pop is the only kind of pop there is. That's wrong. We need to fix that," says Rose, one of the three Pipette singers.

And that seems to be exactly what they're doing. Somehow, The Pipettes, that's Rosay, Gwenno, and RiotBecki to you, with their backup band The Cassettes, has managed to rejuvenate peppy 60's pop music, while at the same time injecting it with a strong sense of modernism, as well as a hip indie rock side that somehow comes through amidst the bubblegum pop and polka-dotted dresses. They've been called a hipper Spice Girls, and while the comparison is clever I'd say they're more of a grown up Atomic Kitten or even a female Weezer, with short, sweet songs set to uptempo beats.

With no song on the EP reaching the three minute mark, The Pipettes make it clear that they're here to throw out some catchy tunes and harmonies and then move on. As true members of the ADHD generation, the Pipettes aren't asking their audience to have a longer attention span than they have. Taking the stage like a new line of Polka-Dot Barbie Dolls, these girls seem to have a knowing, winking attitude towards the audience, letting everyone know that they're in on the joke, although joke may be too strong of a word. The Pipettes are definitely a serious, dedicated band, striving to make quality music, but they're just here to make you dance, not to make you think.

In these days of the crossover, it is hardly surprising to find two great opera singers making a foray into numbers from Broadway musicals by such composers as Cole Porter, Stephen Sondheim, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. What's remarkable is that they seem completely at home in this music. Both say they grew up listening to it, and indeed they approach these songs with no less care and seriousness than they'd give the most demanding operatic arias, and without a trace of condescension. However, their vocal, expressive, and interpretive styles are very different, both in the solos and the duets. Terfel projects assertive manliness, tender, intimate affection, and rollicking humor without external effects, using only his incomparably sonorous voice and powerful personality. His diction is impeccably clear, and though he has sometimes let his theatrical flair spill over into Schubert songs, he is the soul of simplicity here. This is in stark contrast to Fleming's tendency to exaggerate colors and dynamics and to turn sentiment into sentimentality. Moreover, though she claims a background as a jazz singer, her "crooning" sounds artificial and unnatural. However, her top notes, culminating in a triumphant high C at the end of the final number, ring gloriously. Her voice glows and shimmers with irresistible luster, soaring from seductive whispers to thrilling climaxes. The program features a great variety of love songs, and includes an antiwar protest (from Beautiful Game), a celebration of the American dream (from Ragtime), and a rousing fun piece (from The Music Man). Unfortunately, even the best songs are marred by thoroughly corny arrangements. Listeners will find their own favorites, but the real "stars" on this record are the two singers. --Edith Eisler

Customer Reviews:

Delightful .......2006-07-24

I truly enjoy Terfel's vocal talent and found it to be well suited for this genre. Fleming's impeccable soprano voice is a bit overpowering for this style of music. (I own this CD)

A Master Class in Singing.......2006-06-20

This CD is a must-have for any person interested in the singing art. Ms. Fleming and Mr. Terfel gives new light to these Musical Theatre classics. Their fine vocalism in the musical theatre genre coupled with the depth of musicality and dramatic phrasing in each of the selections is truly a breath of fresh air. This recording is indeed a Master Class!

Bryn is swell, but the bombast is annoying.......2006-05-03

Love Bryn Terfel, the finest bass-baritone in Opera. Love Renee Fleming's luscious soprano. But the arrangements! Kettle drums and bombast and bang, bang, bang! Once Renee starts swooping, things go downhill, with little redemption.

It starts out beautifully. "Not While I'm Around" has never sounded more intimate to me than Terfel's caressing pianissimo. Fleming's "Moonglow" is stunningly good. Terfel makes a medley out of "I Don't Remember You and Sometimes a Day Goes By" that makes you want to cheer, and Fleming does a lovely Sondheim medley as well. Bryn sings "Stars" and makes me long for him in Les Mis. And then...things tend to go downhill. The bombast takes over and gets to you - it overwhelms two of the biggest voices now recording. Then Fleming begins to swoop and scoop, over-coloring and often coming off as simply self-indulgent, reminding one of a kid who makes a point of putting his face in a camera shot.

I don't mind Bryn as Prof. Harold Hill - I frankly think the Welsh accent is kinda cute - and it doesn't bother me on "Wheels of Dream," either, but Fleming seems to have lost her mind on that great song, and rather than indulging her, it would have simply been better left off the album. Ditto "All that Wasted Time" which is pretty much unlistenable. Ms. Fleming needs to stop thinking she is a jazz singer.

The four stars are because this album does contain some truly GLORIOUS moments, particularly in the duets, and in Terfel's solo's which are warm and memorable. Without him, the kettle drums and Fleming's self-indulgence would have made the whole endeavor unbearable.

Surprisingly Fine Crossover from Fleming and Terfel.......2006-04-18

Bryn Terfel and Renee Fleming are two of the most acclaimed opera singers of our day. But the musical theatre fan who puts on their Broadway CD, RENEE AND BRYN: UNDER THE STARS, expecting to hear a carelessly compiled hodgepodge of songs sung by voices ill-suited to them is in for a big surprise, beginning with the first phrases of the duo's warmly sung "Not While I'm Around" from SWEENEY TODD. True, these singers' beautiful voices have greater power and range than even the best of the Broadway stars', but this is an asset in these songs, most of which are either semi-operatic in nature or call (like THE MUSIC MAN's "Seventy-Six Trombones") for such an outsize personality as Terfel's. Fleming's sensuous and tonally gorgeous rendition of "Moonfall" from THE MYSTERY OF EDWIN DROOD can be placed among her very finest recordings, operatic and otherwise. And Terfel is ideally suited to both "Pretty Women" from SWEENEY TODD and "Stars" from LES MISERABLES; few if any Broadway Javerts could match the impact of his "This I swear by the stars!" Kander and Ebb's "I Don't Remember You" and "Sometimes a Day Goes By" make a perfect medley here, as do Sondheim's "I Wish I Could Forget You" and "Loving You" from PASSION. And though I don't care for the Andrew Lloyd Webber selections (ersatz Puccini) or the Jason Robert Brown one (which sounds too much like a pop song), Terfel and Fleming's singing of them is beyond reproach. The program ends with a bang: a rendition of "Wheels of a Dream" worthy to stand beside the now-classic one by Brian Stokes Mitchell and Audra McDonald on the original cast album of RAGTIME. Welshman Terfel's natural accent is noticeable here; but if one imagines him as, say, an Irish immigrant married to an African-American woman (as Fleming here sounds uncannily like McDonald or like Leontyne Price) his accent is appropriate and his voicing of the "bridge" section ("Oh Sarah, it's more than promises/Sarah, it must be true...") especially moving. Fleming's ecstatic final high note makes one want to applaud and cheer, both for the song and for the successful "crossover" effort.

BREATHTAKING VOCAL MAGNIFICENCE~BRAVO!!!.......2004-10-11

So captivating are these incredible singers in the glorious live concert "Under The Stars" creating an unforgettable musical masterpiece of epic proportions that is so moving and great to watch that I ran out and purchased this studio recorded Compact Disc the next day!! The brilliance of the live broadcast carried over into the recording studio capturing Renee and Bryn at the peak of their incredible powers emotionally and vocally making them the most effective crossover artists since the great Barbara Cook who like Miss Cook sing with emotion that is accurate for this type of material which is usually not the case with classical voices. Renee Fleming sings with genuine passion and stirring emotions and her timing is absolutely flawless and this lady has alot of soul and the Torrie Zito arranged "Moonfall" is a stunning masterpiece that clearly illustrates this. A dazzling medley each show both singers in glorious peak form with Bryn splendid in the enchanting "I Don't Remember You/Sometimes A Day Goes By" and Renee spellbinding and haunting in the gorgeous "I Wish I Could Forget You/Loving You" which will make anyone who loves a great voice fall in love with this amazingly gifted singer. "Stars" features a commanding performance from Bryn that raises the roof and this is so refreshing and inspired in these musically tired times!!! This superb showcase is full of wonderfully exciting performances which are capable of making people feel again and this is what is sorely needed in music today and BRAVO to Bryn Terfel and the gorgeous Renee Fleming for achieving this with complete artistic brilliance. Captivating duets fill this wonderous collection and never have classics such as "Not While I'm Around" or "All I Ask Of You" been sung more brilliantly than here. Renee is magical with "Hello, Young Lovers" while Bryn is commanding and winning with "Pretty Women". Renee's stunning "All The Wasted Time" is a vocal and emotional tour-de-force that is like a wild roller-coaster ride that you won't want to end as this is one of the most riveting songs that I have ever heard from a Broadway score and this certainly must be the definitive performance of this great song. This lady can really really sing and this is some deeply serious singing~WOW!!! Gorgeous together again in the beautiful "How Could I Ever Know" which is hair-raising and wonderfully soulful and sophisicated together in Cole Porter's "So In Love". A grand finale by these two awesome vocal wonders lives up to expectations being a complete blowout vocal festival and they definitely do not disappoint here!!! "Wheels Of A Dream" is mesmerizing and soars to magnificent heights with Bryn and Renee in peak form singing to the skies and hitting notes that I swear I have never heard before~BRAVO!!!!!!! You are both magically inspired and simply put as good as it gets!!!! Highly recommended if you love two awesome vocal wonders at their absolute peak in a magnificent beautifully orchestrated setting!!! Thank you Bryn & Renee...

Elegant Indeed.......2007-04-16

Ten years ago today was the release of INXS's last studio recording with the late Michael Hutchence. The band had come full circle as they spent years and years making great albums and all leading up to what can be defined as their ultimate masterpiece. INXS always became more refined with every album, while their passion for playing upbeat rock music with a relentless drive is even more founded on Elegantly Wasted. Also not missing are songs filled with just as much passion and poignancy as the music. And Micheal Hutchence continues to sing with vocals that sounded more sharp and emotional than ever. When you listen to these songs now, you can detect how he sang with an unmarked intensity as if there was no tomorrow.

A True Masterpiece.......2006-07-28

This cd, Elegantly Wasted, along with Michael Hutchence's posthumously released solo cd, are my all-time favorite albums. I own back-up copies of each because I am truly addicted to the sounds and lyrics of both. Each is haunting, sophisticated, funky, heartfelt, and intensely soulful. It is not an exaggeration to say that both the Elegantly Wasted (EW) cd and Michael's solo cd have had a deeply profound effect on me. This is not fluff! This is the culmination, the pinnacle of matured talent and creativity. Each track of both cd's is amazing and so full of meaning. Of particular note on the EW cd are the tracks: "I'm Just a Man," "Don't Lose Your Head," "She Is Rising," and "Building Bridges." Michael Hutchence was such an exceptional artist - definitely one of the best frontmen ever. He was an incredible poet with a beautifully strong and soulful voice, as well as, an incomparably thrilling performer. I am so grateful to have all of Michael's cd's (with INXS and solo), and EW and his solo cd's are the best. It is more than a tragedy that Hutch's last two masterpieces have not been lauded to the heights that they deserve. As much as I love his other albums with INXS (e.g., Kick, X, Listen Like Thieves, The Swing, and Shabooh Shoobah), I think EW surpasses them. Like some of the previous reviewers, I agree that EW is among the most underrated and it and Michael's solo cd deserve recognition for their brilliance.

Michael Hutchence is gone but this album lives on!.......2005-12-10

Inxs are back in the spotlight with RockStar: Inxs. Yada yada yada...

However, the most talented member of the band (IMO) is no longer with us.

This release captures some of the best Inxs songs ever recorded.

"Don't Lose Your Head" is such a catchy and poppy song. However, it has very deep lyrics that someone could spend days thinking about. I know I have. Imagine the music of John Mellencamp's "Jack and Diane" meets the lyrics of Hutch. Then you have about a 80% idea of how awesome this track is. Nothing I could say could do it justice.

"Searching" is a song that isn't very catchy the first time you hear it. However, it will grow on you quickly. It is a VERY amazing song. The lyrics make you wonder what state of mind, Michael was in during this time.

"Elegantly Wasted" is the title track and it has a different style to it. It doesn't really sound like anything Inxs have done before (IMO.) This isn't a bad thing though. The song has a great hook and once again, Michael's lyrics and voice shine.

Also I would say check out "Girl On Fire" because is catchy if you give it a chance.

Michael Hutchence may be gone. To some Inxs are gone with him. However, this album hopefully will remind people how talented Michael Hutchence was, and how great Inxs were back in 1997.

i know people have free speech and i don't condem them people for saying that this is inxs worst album but you must be joking this is not their worst album this is a fantastic heavier sounding inxs in my opipion inxs grew up when they recorded this album it still has the dance beats but it's got heavier riffs and fantastic lyrics and songs that you remember weeks after i cannot fault this album it's my favorite
in second place kick and third listen like thieves
a great last album from the real inxs not the phoney tribute band they are now...god bless hutchence

A disappointing album from a great band.......2005-11-08

To preface: I am a longtime fan of INXS and own everything from Listen Like Thieves to Elegantly Wasted. Elegantly Wasted is, in my opinion, almost worse than Full Moon, Dirty Hearts. Actually, I will definitively say it IS worse. There are the gems Show Me (Cherry Baby) and Elegantly Wasted, the title track, but the album quickly runs out of gas, runs together, and seems uniformly tepid, like lukewarm water. It doesn't rock the way INXS usually rocks. It attempts to experiment like some of the earlier projects successfully did, only unsuccessfully. There aren't the hooks or the tunes to redeem it. This is disappointing because I am a fan and I want to give the band an open ear and not condemn their work. But this album, unfortunately, stinks.

If you've ever seen INXS' Live Baby Live concert or listened to any album from 1985's Listen Like Thieves to 1992's Welcome to Wherever You Are, you probably concur that INXS was (and is, thanks to their newfound popularity with the Rockstar INXS TV show) a band capable of a great sound and a load of great songs. For instance, the entire playlist around 1991 was one great song after another. It was the pinnacle of the band's career. Michael's stage performance oozed with charisma and sexiness, Andrew's (and Michael's) songwriting was top notch, the band's arrangements were tight and good. And then something happened.

Fan reaction to X was much more tepid than to Kick, although X still sold fairly well. The band embarked on a successful tour. Around this time, grunge became huge in the global musical consciousness, and by the time of Welcome to Wherever You Are in 1992, the INXS sound was out-of-style. But ironically, that album contains some of the band's most diverse, greatest work.

INXS is releasing a new album soon with their new lead singer, J.D. I hope, and am confident, that it will be a return to greatness for the band. I believe that they can still crank out bitchin' tunes once again.

Smooth Up in Ya.......2007-04-18

Let it be known and acknowledged throughout the realm that this is a good album. It resonates with debauchery, slumming, and general otherwise occupations pursued while drinking. It's easy to look at this band's song titles and think that this is all, yet Jizzy and co. place a stamp of adventure and peril on living on the wild side and the slippery slide of booze becomes a mantra, yet one chanted beneath the winsome altar of Dionysus. ':
This is probably their most "fun" album. Let's Rumble" reeks of barbed wire and oil spills; the songs are heavy and true to Thor. "I'm Not Happy" is a daft mix of liquid thunder and poignant melodic malaise.
"Wasted in America" is a look back at the boys on top of the world and the seemingly good times that resonated onto vinyl/cassette/etc..
Love/ Hate was/is much better than the average metal band of the late 80's and should be given a second look by the Rolling Stone crowd and their ilk. If you belong to this Men's Health demigod group, contrite yourself with three straight listens of "Wasted in America" and a devoted drink of at least six Budweisers (Zinfandel and Syrah acceptable). Then apply yourself to the prescribed regimen of 200 ab crunches- though they'll seem insignificant at this point, given the jokerish majesty that is "Wasted in America". All hail the king- and the joker!

Not as good as their first release!.......2006-04-23

I was expecting some rockin tracks like "Rock Queen" on this one but it's not really here. This album is also (too produced). Its ok but their first CD is better.

Hard Rock Funk Stew.......2004-10-05

These cats never hit it big because they were just too damn hip for the masses to grasp. It's an odd mix of GNR & The Chili Peppers, sort of a hard rock funk stew. Jizzy Pearl does sound a lot like Axl but has a beatnik vibe that makes him unique. Title cut hits hard with droning melodic guitars and Jizzy's Alice Cooper like snarl. Spit and Yucca Man lock in to relentless grooves. This band was obviously tight as hell when they made this record. Don't know much about Skid, but the dude could write, and not just good riffs- check out the lyrics on Social Sidewinder. Fave is Miss America- perfect blend of slick 80's rock with skeptical lyrics and a hint of grunge. For what it's worth, all of this bands' records are solid. Also, check out Jizzy Pearl's website- www.jizzypearl.com. This guy is funny as hell and very intelligent. His latest solo record Just A Boy(available only on his website) is five stars in my humble opinion.

Slamming, unique metal band you should check out.......2003-10-15

Love/Hate were certainly an enigma in the early 90's - as most pop metal bands were trying to do the Bon Jovi thing with slick ballads and cheesy rockers (some decent, such as Danger Danger, some awful, such as Trixter), Love/Hate basically did the Guns N' Roses thing but a little heavier and less accessible. Gutteral, sleazy "pop" metal that is a direct descendent of Shout At The Devil and Appetite For Destruction, but with more humor and musical tricks injected into the songs. Every player is firing on all cylinders, the guitar tone and solos are heavy but not always obvious or expected, and vocalist Jizzy Pearl's screech is one of the better examples of typical 80's metal. I read a review once that called this the 2nd best metal album of the 90's, and I wouldn't be too quick to disagree. Wasted In America was a great effort from a sadly unnoticed band that deserved to be a major player, I guess they never had a sappy enough ballad to break them through to the masses. Nearly every tune on here is a keeper, and last but not least, you can probably find it fairly cheap.

Best Tracks:
"Wasted In America" - Straight up driving rock with great guitar.
"Spit" - Queen-like vocals on the intro always crack me up, they make lyrics like 'Throbbing, pulsating, gyrating, hyperventilating' sound angelic. After that it's a slamming GNR meets Chili Peppers-type tune.
"Yucca Man" - Who knows what this is about, but it's heavy and the musicianship is great.
"Happy Hour" - Way left of center lyrics go hand in hand with this odd timed beat, all the time changes and musical/lyrical quirks make this as artsy and proggy as heavy Crimson or Rush.
"Tranquilizer" - Beautiful intro is deceptive, kicks into metal around 1 minute. Great song, love the guitar all the way through.
"Dont F*** With Me" - The band's odd sense of humor pops up, this is a charming and hilariously catchy sing along - a childish and essential rant that is 10000 times better than "Get In The Ring" or any other hateful tracks for it's sense of humor.

Extraordinary Ska Band!.......2006-06-22

Easily one of the best ska bands to date and are actually still touring and producing tunes. This album really showcases how damn good these musicians are. The 1st track, "Wasted Days" is a damn killer way to open up things. It really sets the mood throughout the rest of the album. Every track on this album is consistently good. I find myself either nodding along, shoulder groovin, skankin, or singing off key to the lyrics. Incredible musicans and Vic's voice is buttah. Buy This!

Fav tracks: Wasted Days, Old Days, Midnight Rendezvous

really GOOD........2006-06-07

this is just an amazing album. i haven't gone 2 days without listening to at least one of the songs on it since i got it a few weeks ago. i can't really say enough good things about the album, so i'll just say go buy it and groove on to the groovy goodness.

groovy rocksteady beats.......2006-05-10

I don't think this is the best offering from The Slackers, but they're such an amazing band that this definetly still merits five stars. I really like the title track, "Walking On," "Midnight Rendezvous," "Wanted Dead or Alive," "Please Decide," "Easy" and "Dave's Friend," but most of the tracks are really good. Good variety of sound, it's pretty solid all around but I liked Redlight better.

Old school reggae jams..........2004-11-24

The Slackers are the perfect cure for the mess of punk/ska/crappo bands out there now. They sure do it right.

This album is very remeniscent of old reggae and dub classics. You can hear the Lee Perry and the Bob Marley in this album. Along with incorporating that old school flavor, on songs like (my personal favorite) "The Nurse", they manage to fuse just enough new school punk into the mix so it sounds like something new and fresh. I'm very excited about this band and they are on Hellcat Records too which is badass.

If you've heard anything about these guys, pick up this cd first. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

Not bad, but not their best........2003-06-21

After listening to "The Question" 100+ times, I desperately needed to find more Slackers. So I went to the store hoping to find "Redlight" (since I've heard a few great songs from it) but bought this and Hepcat's "Right on Time" (another beautiful album) instead. When I first listened to it, I actually hated most of it (except a handful of songs), thinking it wasn't nearly as good as "The Question." Then, I listened to it a couple more times and grew to appreciate it by itself, and realized trying to compare it is a bad idea, since a band's music should change and evolve.

Wasted Days starts off with the killer title track, one of the few I liked from the start. It features Vic's best vocal on the album and a kickass bassline. The next song Henderson Swamp, took some getting used to (what is that instrument in the intro??) but it's now one of my favorites. Next comes Please Decide, featuring Marq on vocals and is reminiscent of the swing/ska of "Sarah" and ends with a gospel chorus. Pets of the World had a kind of dub/reggae feel to it with lots of echo effects and contains some toasting from DJ Mush One (aka former trumpeter Jeremy Mushlin). Dave's Friend is probably the strongest song lyrically, with nice slide guitar a lyrics about looking out for your friends.

So This Is the Night sounds like a "Question" retread (albeit a good one). "Made Up My Mind" breaks some new ground as the only ska song I've heard to feature violin, which adds alot to the haunting melody. After the inane, rather pointless Sermon, the album gets back on track with The Nurse, a fun live favourite with odd lyrics (someone tell me what exactly it's about) and a bouncing rhythm. Old Days has a great 1+ minute intro (good sax from Dave Hillyard) and classic lyrics. Midnight Rendezvous may be the best song on the album, and possibly the best they've ever done. It's a soulful Drifters-esque track, sung wonderfully by trombonist Glen Pine. Tales of the Mongoose is a cool instrumental with a great title, Easy is quality, and the album 'ends' with Walking On, a very unmemorable track. After a strange break, the album comes back with "Wanted Dead or Alive," a good Bon Jovi cover, and my other favorite on the disc: "Information Error," a 6 minute dub-flavored masterpiece (also featured on Hellcat's third Give 'em the Boot sampler).

While this is a very good album, I'd say get The Question and Redlight first. Also, if you like The Slackers' sound, get all of Hepcat's albums, too. And the Stubborn All-Stars. Recommended.

well..........2006-09-09

sketchy as whether this is worth the buy or not.the first 10 songs are the real wasted youth. then after that is the next 7", which sounds totally different, largly due to the fact theres a different singer, the way it is with hardcore in general if u change the singer uve pretty much changed the identity of the band. also the first part sounds like classic thrashy socal punk. but the 7" is more crossover/metal. and only the first two songs on it are good. the fact that the greater part of the 7" sucks and the lp seems so short. i definatly wouldnt have bought this new, $6 is a good price

classic So-Cal punk rock.......2006-08-26

Wasted Youth were a pretty big deal in southern california
back in the early 80's hardcore punk scene playing many gigs
with such legends as Black Flag, Fear and the Circle Jerks.
The first half of the cd is the classic Reagan's In album
from 1981, which musically reminds me off the Circle Jerks
'Group Sex' lp as well as other bands from that era like the
Adolescents and T.S.O.L..The second half of this cd contains
Wasted Youth's second album that was released sometime in the
mid 80's. This album sounds tottaly differnent with only one
original member left in the band. Musically this sounds like
later Circle Jerks or S.N.F.U.and is not nearly as good as
'Reagan's In' wich makes the cd well worth the buy.

Well Kept Secret.......2005-10-16

Great early 80s Hardcore Punk from LA. Think old Circle Jerks and you won't be far off. This disc comprises two LPs. The second has some metal influence and is a bit forgettable. Again, think Cirlce Jerks. Good overall though.

Reagans In.......2004-01-21

Wasted youth were a part of the LA hardcore punk scene.They should of gotten more and they diserved more recognition just like other great hardcore bands.This record would of gotten a 5 but the "get out of my yard" lp just wasn't all that good . There was only one original member left when this lp was recorded for all i know....
Get this album for reagans in and listen to true LA hardcore.

Album Description

Boston's most notorious sons, Blood For Blood, return to action with the final studio recording of their infamous career. Since their inception, Blood For Blood has been breaking bottles, smashing tables and brawling their way through any barrier that society has managed to build in their path by spreading their anti-societal messages across the country and around the world. Their `white-trash working man' ethics and `no holds barred' attitude have garnered Blood For Blood a following that is among the most fanatical and dedicated of any fanbase in the music scene today. In a scene currently lacking in old-fashioned angry hardcore, Blood For Blood stands where legends Sheer Terror and Killing Time once reigned. With "Outlaw Anthems", Blood For Blood has delivered their most forthright, disparaging and truly disturbing work to date. Available on cd only.

HARDCORE SUX!!!.......2004-03-24

THIS BAND IS TERRIBLE!!! I had to sit through them live when they were opening for the dropkick murphys. The guitars suck the lyrics are crappy and they have a crappy singer. It amazed me that people like these guys actually got a record label. Old school hardcore punk like this is crap. I recommend u dont waste the time on ur computer to download this stuff.

Blood for Blood, Jersey Hardcore at its best........2002-07-18

I have to say that out of all the hardcore that I've listened to in my time Blood for Blood in one of the most influencial bands that I've heard. There lyrics speak of the hidden life of the people kicked out, beatin in, and forced to live on the street. This able, like all others, has all of those explicitly true lyrics. If they still played shows I would be the first one on line to get tickets, and the first one in the building to see them. By far, one of the best albums of all time, five stars in my book.

Not for the rich kid that thinks he's hard!!.......2001-05-16

Hardcore music with hardcore lyrics, WhiteTrashRob and Budha bring it and they bring it hard!! No other hardcore band comes close to BFB's intensity/insanity. Deffinately not for the rich kid that thinks he's hard....As WhiteTrashRob says "Why don't you go white-wash your fence or clean your daddy's car or somtin' like that you F@ckin nerd!..." Spoken like a true Hoody!

WASTED YOUTH IN YOUR FACE!.......2001-05-02

For starters, Blood for Blood definatley reigns as one of the top hardcore bands in my collection. Starting with "Spit my last breath" onto the good ole "Enemy" 7"...and finally concluding with "revenge...", and "livin'...", "Wasted Youth Brew" contains unreleased demo versions of classics from spit my last breath, about four cover songs, a live set, and a creepy intro. Not to mention the fact that its BLOOD FOR BLOOD! This is an album definaltley worth buying, and about the live set...It sounds great! Lyrics that are as powerful and borderline psychotic (and extremley deep) as a Texas Chainsaw Massacre movie, catchy oi! style riffs, and a presence that will blow all the other "angry" bands out of the water!

pioneers of Boston hardcore.......2007-06-18

Chris Doherty, Chuck Stilphen, Glen Stilphen, Walter Gustafson, Brian Betzger at their best. CD is a bit watered down with extra material, covers and raw tracks. The original 8 song LP vinyl released in 1986 packed a punch with the best 8 songs. Alcohol and Skate to Hell are the stand outs. True pioneers of hardcore.

Best CD Evah!.......2006-06-02

Yes, this is your fathers hardcore. Get schooled by this Boston band, no one does it better. And they nevah sold out. So bring it!

Not another wasted night.......2005-02-20

I remember when this album originally came out (back in the vinyl-only days!), it took the scene over by storm. "Alcohol" was blasted from every punk radio show and every punk party for months. This is the record that made Gang Green "big", and for good reason.
Gang Green always played 1,000 miles an hour, but on this record, they slowed down a bit and added some crunch. After this record, they made "OU812", which was pretty good, but then they decided to sober up and lost that Gang Green edge. Although Chris D was always the founding member and leader, the numerous line-up changes took their toll after this record. So this record is Gang Green at it's best... fast, aggressive, drunk, and slightly goofy.
The good thing about the CD is the added tracks that didn't come on the first issue vinyl. The "Voices Carry" EP is included, as well as some older songs that never made it onto records or was on limited 7"ers.
Buy this and fill your head with some of the best punk ever done!

SK8 Punk at it's finest!.......2004-08-16

Skateboards, Beer, Parties, Girls...Count me in!!!! This is the best Gang Green album ever. If you are lucky enough to have ever seen these guys live you know what I'm talking about. I had the pleasure of seeing them in the 80's at the Cameo Theatre in Miami Beach. I was in New York a few months ago and freaked out when I saw they were playing at CBGB's. I had Chris sign "Skate To Hell" on my old school Factory 13 skateboard! I was so stoked. He was the coolest guy and the show was rad! This album always gets my blood pumping. Buy it and you'll want to go skate some curbs and do a boneless or two... then drink some beer. This album RULES!

HIGH OCTANE DRINKAGE PUNK FOR YOU PLEASURE.......2001-12-19

well kicking it up boston style is our own gang green .a punk/hardcore/speedcore band that matches no other either in the great punk or the amount of booze these guys can drink in one sitting.this is a compleation of sorts of some of there classics that have carrried this band threw every keg party over the last 2 decades.with the classic "alcohol" to the hangerover driven "another wasted night" .this album is a must buy for any punk that has never been to a keg party and not survived.these guys lived there anthems of beer and fun to the extreme.just one of the great punk bands of skating partying and having as much fun that is possible.also if you dig this one try to find some there other out of print realises such as "YOU GOT IT".AND 18144U2.so if you like your punk with some party values this is not an album to miss out on!!!!!
