The Star of a Story I Love So Well!!!!!!!!.......2007-01-12

This man has surely proven he has the skills. Prince recognizes his skills so you know...Beyond glitz and glamour, Quest just brings it! Heatwave's Star of a Story is a rare gem and my new favorite song. Roy Ayres, Isley Brothers, Bill Whithers - I can't even explain it. You gotta have this CD for your quiet, romantic, champagne, candle lit nights. Perfect music to get lost in with your baby. WOW!

One of the best compliations EVER made!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2004-09-15

Fantastic.......2006-11-15

This cd is amazing! I love every song on it and I love how poppy and dancy it is. It's the perfect music to listen to in your car or in the shower or just anywhere.

The best songs on the album are Walk Me Home and We're So Loud.

They're fun and so cute. The music just wants to make you smile.

MAKING ENEMIES IS GOOD - 3.5 Stars.......2006-05-14

I Backyard Babies tornano dopo il successo di "Total 13", e lo fanno con un disco che viene ritenuto agrodolce.
Questo "Making Enemies Is Good" si presenta con 13 tracce inaugurate dal geniale opener "I love to roll", un brano energico, rapido e "tamarro" quanto serve per inaugurare il ritorno in scena dei rocker svedesi.
Si prosegue con "Payback", una delle composizioni pi? riuscite dell'intera produzione per approdare al singolo "Brand New Hate", il i cui chorus da il titolo all'album. Traccia vincente, adrenalinica, melodica quanto serve e decisamente catchy.
Successivamente, abbiamo il primo dei due brani "atipici" di MEIG: "Colours", la quale assieme a "Painkiller" ci dona una versione dei BYB inedita fino ad ora; rallentati, singhiozzanti, questi due pezzi sono quanto di meglio ci possa offrire questo album.
"Star War", cantata interamente dal chitarrista Dregen scorre senza intoppi in tutta la sua energia e ci conduce fino a "The Clash", il secondo singolo estratto dal disco. Punk rock, pop-punk, rock n' roll... Molte sono state le etichette di genere affibbiate a questo brano, ma credo che il termine "perfetto" gli si addica decisamente meglio! Perfetto ? infatti il secondo singolo in tutta la sua struttura e nella tessitura vocale.
Si prosegue con "The Kids Are Right" e "Ex-Files", ottimi brani nella loro diversit? ed infine arriviamo ai due nei che compongono questo Making Enemies Is Good: "Too Tough To Make Some Friends" e "Bigger W/A Trigger" hanno l'aspetto sonoro di due fillers. Insomma, non lasciano il segno e fanno concludere il disco in lieve caduta.
Ma come mai allora solo 3.5 stelle? Beh, perch? dopo la poderosa e dirompente energia di "Total 13", inevitabilmente sarebbe stata dura partorire un disco all'altezza.
Per carit?, i BYB vanno considerati come una band in costante evoluzione, mai stagnanti sul "loro" genere, ma "Making Enemies Is Good" ha una marcia in meno rispetto al suo predecessore.

total let down.......2004-06-06

Huge disappointment after Total 13 and Safety Pins. The band merely go through the motions and there are only a couple of decent tracks until the amazing Painkiller- the best song they've ever done.

Swedish Punks Love To Roll.......2002-01-18

I love bands that can't quite fit into a category, and I was happy to be introduced to Backyard Babies by some musician friends of mine. While supposedly punk rockers, these guys can really ROLL in ways that you won't hear too often from more "standard" punk acts, and their musical chops are impressive. They've got an excellent drummer in Peder Carlsson, who has a lot of funk for a punk - see the sly groove he delivers in "Ex-Files" for example. Lead guitarist Dregen ignores the minimalism that is supposed to be the "rule" among American and British punks, and delivers a barrage of metallic and heavy rock licks that really brighten up this band's sound.

One weakness on this album is a slight lack of focus in the songwriting department, as the band is obviously trying to stretch out their sound into new territory. A few songs, especially "Heaven 2.9," stray way too far into pop and merely sound like watered-down Blink 182. Attempts at serious epics like "Colours" and "Painkiller" are delivered with precision but are not entirely believable. But these are just a few missteps, and the album is saved by the full-blast fun-loving rockers that are surely this band's strength. Favorites include "I Love To Roll," "Star War," and "Too Tough to Make Some Friends."

Note: If you dig Backyard Babies, check out their more metallic compatriots and cronies the Hellacopters, who have also featured Dregen on a few albums.

Rock'n'roll is back again!!!!.......2001-09-23

This album makes me remember the real rock'n'roll bands like Johnny Thunders and The Heartbreakers,New York Dolls,Ramones,Dead Boys.If you got the money don't think just buy it.Try to listen the songs like I love to roll,Heaven 2.9,Payback,Painkiller(Tyla's here).That's all!!

Almost Total 13.......2001-08-23

If you like the Backyard Babies, you're gonna like this album. That being said, it did have to grow on me a little. I don't think that it just hits you over the head the way Total 13 does. The first 2 tracks are killer and there are great melodies to be found on other tunes. Some of the songs are a little more experimental and less aggressive than Total 13. Overall, a good effort and it's great to see killer rock and roll still grooving.

Best Band Around.......2005-11-30

This cd begins with a punch with I Love To Roll & ends with 3 Wise Monkeys still punching you til the end! There is also a song written with Babies by Tyla of Dogs D'Amour called Painkiller. Very very sad song but very Tyla. Then there is Brand New Hate Ginger of Wildhearts help write, one of my faves. The songs like Ex-Files, Demonic Side & Heaven 2.9 are my favourites. But I also love P.O.P. & Payback, the way that song starts oh sexy little Nicke Borg, you go boy. The whole cd is just excellent! Not a disappointment among the bunch. You will hear when you buy it. This cd has lots of kick so be prepared to be rocked. If you like Social Distortion, Hanoi Rocks & Ramones come get this baby!
