The penultimate collection ..........2006-12-07
I have always had a weak spot for (good, or maybe even intelligent) science fiction/fantasy and film music, especially its way of evoking mystery, grandure and wide open spaces. Call it a weakness if you want. But it was maybe really kick started off, for as far as I can remember, with Star Trek. But especially Star Trek II, III and IV - essentially a trilogy - because of their very romantic but very warm, human core, set on the broadest canvasses of unlimited and mysterious outer space. But then there was the music for adding that essential extra dimension of emotion and atmosphere. I am happy that much of the music on this album is from the Star Trek series and films, often equaling or sometimes even outclassing the original recordings.
This kind of music (for the movies) should be seen as an art on its own rights with its own merits and qualities. As such, the musical sequences on these CD's are a beautifully played cross section of some of the most evoking orchestral music for science fiction/fantasy film ever created. And I very much like the nicely blended, wide and deep orchestral soundpicture with enough reverberation to evoke a sense of wide open spaces.
I am quite thrilled by tracks like the evocative music from Dune, truly transporting one to the vastly sands of Arrakis (the music is wonderful, but to my great regret I think the movie itself is a flawed masterpiece at best, alas.). And then there is the very different, goofy music for Ghostbusters (memories of childhood), the spoofy but electrifying music from Mars Attacks (lovingly parodist music, this, with not a little touch of irony) and the happily adventurous, forward driving Theme from Galaxy Quest ('Never give up, never surrender!'), now also used for the internet-based fan-series Star Trek: The Hidden Frontier. On the other side of the spectrum we have the atmospheric music for Enemy Mine (an underestimated 'little' movie), the Theme from The Right Stuff (actually science FACT, not fiction, this film, just like Apollo 13, of course), the eerily attractive music for Species, the original End Title for Alien (not used in the theatrical version of the movie, where it was replaced by music from howard Hanson's Second Symphony), the exquisitely exotic music for Stargate, the sweet and warmly sympathetic, beautifully re-orchestrated, theme for Starman, the title cue for Star Trek: TOS (much more melodiously played than the original! If only a series nowadays could continue to be as thought provoking and as original as Star Trek was during its launch, fourty years ago ...) and a truly overpowering End Titles Suite from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. I especially like the thrillingly grandiloquent rendition here of the music for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. And how nice it is to hear the (thematic) similarities between James Horner's music for The Wrath of Khan, his great break-through as a film music composer, and his (two years) earlier music for Battle Beyond the Stars (which did indeed help him earn the job for writing the music for Star Trek II) ...
But on the 'down side', if one is looking for - for example - the gorgeously expansively played End Titles from Cocoon, it is not included here: one has to acquire the album that 'kicked it all off', so to say, namely 'Space and Beyond', also on Silva Screen. I was very pleased also with the inclusion on that album of some of the music from the series Star Trek: The Next Generation, namely where one of the characters, Tasha Yar, in one of the episodes (Skin of Evil) is saying goodbye to her crewmmates: sweetly sentimental and simple music which I have always wanted to own on CD. I guess that a few cues from the other two sequals ('Alien Invasion: Space and Beyond II' and 'Space3: Beyond the Final Frontier') didn't make it onto this 4 CD collection-album as well, but I guess that it would be the 'better part of the bargain' to opt to buy this 'The Science Fiction Album' instead of buying all three albums separately. Well, of course it is for yourself to ultimately decide what you really want ;-)
If I were to nitpick (which is not easy with such a marvellous project as this one), then I would say that while all music is performed with magnificent grandure and with style, some of it is not performed as crisply and as technically 'on the spot' as some of the original recordings: ensemble is a little slack and the playing somewhat stilted sometimes, losing some of the edge and the originality of the writing. ET and Star Wars spring to mind, but then the soundtracks for Star Wars are traditionally recorded with the magnificent London Symphony Orchestra, conducted by maestro John Williams himself, and these superior recordings (especially the ones for Episode I, II and III) can't really be bettered, IMHO. Likewise for the music from Star Trek: The Motion Picture, I believe that in the end one really has to resort to the ultimate reference, namely the original recording (which is true in many other instances of 'original recordings'), and then the 20th anniversay colector's edition of this soundtrack on Columbia/Legacy (truly unmissable, this veritable classic of sci-fi/film music soundtracks!).
But all in all this 4CD-collection amounts to probably being the penultimate high quality sci-fi music album collection (I certainly know of no other project that comes as close quality as well as quantity wise), with some of the most memorable musical moments from classic to modern sci-fi/fantasy film captured in lavish orchestrations.
Collection-wise: five *stars*. Playing: generally four *stars*, sometimes more. The recording quality: five *stars*. The music (qualified on its own merits as film music) and its (re)orchestrations: generally five *stars*. In the end this is all highly recommended, and certainly not to be missed by science fiction and fantasy film music fans. Klaatu barada nikto.

The Ulllllltimate Sci-Fi Music Collection.......2005-10-23
The moment I ripped off the shrink-wrap and popped it into my cd player was a moment of great trepidation. Believe me when I tell that I've seen my fair share of sub-par orchestral recording in my lifetime. Very often they are in those big super-packs of music, and suffer from poor direction, improper mastering, and sometime even pathetic orchestration (or worse yet have something sounding like a cheap synthesizer and a kazoo in place of a full orchestra). I needn't have worried though. This sucker is fantastic.
Many people who are not audiophiles will probably miss the point of this cd collection. It is not the original versions of the pieces. It is re-orchestrations, mostly by the phenomenal Prague Symphony Orchestra. Many of these themes didn't sound all that hot in there original versions because they were low budget films or were not recorded in high-fidelity. Here they are given the full treatment, mastered with the most loving care imaginable. Often the version found in these cds is SUPERIOR to the original.
Remember the theme from 2001: A Space Odyssey? Of course you do. But how many times have you heard a cheap imitation of the original version from the movie, starting too low in volume and ending too high (and missing the essential pipe-organ that gives it that extra oomph)? Well, this first track in the entire collection is not only everything it should be instrumental and timing-wise, but it also has been oh-so-carefully adjusted during the mastering process so that at no time is the music either too low or too high in volume (surely a benchmark for every other recording ever to be made of the piece).
Or what about the theme from the (at-the-time) uber-creepy The Black Hole? The orchestration of this piece of music goes from tiumphant to terrifying and back again, with a splendor and cleanness that I CERTAINLY don't remember being in the original recording.
Then there's the new version of the theme from Independence Day, complete with a violin solo, a far more electrifying ending climax, and a chorus so thunderous that you feel like applauding at the end. Simply indescribable. Kind of like the MIND-BLOWING rendition of the theme from The Last Star Fighter. This has been one of my favorite themes for a long time now, but I've never heard it played like this. I think the original version of the theme is something like 1 minute long, but this new version doesn't just fade out (HAHAHAHA!!!!) THIS version is THREE minutes long, goes through the main theme THREE times, with the final strains being so triumphant and joyous I could not help but feel an electrifying charge the first dozen or so times (come to think of it, I still feel that way). This is superior to the original in EVERY way. AWESOME.
And let's not forget the incredible new rendition of Stargate with it's heavy use of clarinets (for Egyptian effect!) and a triumphant new ending (completely lacking the chanting from the original version. This version is so different that for the first minute it is very hard to tell that it is in fact Stargate. But then the main theme kicks in, and then you get this incredible flute solo for my favorite part of theme (the whole thing is played slower, but arguably more powerfully than the original). My goodness. At first I found the thing so different I didn't like it. But then I listened to it again. And again. And again.
I could go on and on, talking about the fantastic new rendition of Moon Raker, the ear-popping Battlestar Galactica, the classic Star Trek (First Contact has a minute or two of the theme from Star Trek:The Motion Picture before going into the main theme), or the sweet renditions of music from the Star Wars movies (or the music from E.T.).
I have to mention though that this collection was not picked based merely on what people want, or on what is popular. No, the people who made it obviously thought a GOOD music collection was better than a popular one. That's why you get a heartbreakingly beautiful theme from A.I. instead of the main theme. It's why you get music from movies that you probably never gave a second thought to the music (because the movie was lousy). It's why you get Armageddon, Judge Dredd, and Robocop (who would have guessed their music was so COOL when there was all that crazy action and bad-acting going on on-screen).
I said it before and I'll say it again. This cd-set was mastered with tender-loving-care, and it shows BIG-TIME. High-fidelity the likes of which I have not seen since the days when cds were brand-new in the world. Dolby Surround. Perfectly balanced. BEAUTIUFL orchestrations. About the only thing that makes me scratch my head is the weird sound-effect tracks (Oooookay.....). Other than that, it's PERFECT. Obviously they could not include every sci-fi theme ever (no one can), but this collection is REALLY GOOD. A lot of great themes that got away (forgotten gems :), new versions of old favorites, and under-appreciated classics aplenty, but ALWAYS the full and complete versions with nothing cut-out (the theme from Dune is quite extended).
If you love movie music (and sci-fi movie music in particular) you MUST buy this awesome collection). It is not the original recordings. Almost always the new ones are better (if they aren't better they're just equal). This is what you have been waiting for. I for one am going to be buying quite a few cds from this company in the future. Give your ears the treat they deserve. Buy it NOW.

Cube's Most Successful Selling Album (Rating: 7 out of 10- -3.5 stars).......2007-01-26
This was considered Ice Cube's most sold album. His biggest hit song "It Was A Good Day" still gets a lot of rotation on the radio, and is still dope to listen to as well. Cube was still in his political stance though. It wasn't as heavy as "Death Certificate" and "Amerikka's Most Wanted". Around this time people might have been calling him a racist, but he was out trying to prove otherwise. If you hear the inserts that are on this album ("I'm Scared") you can hear some of the opinions that people had towards him about what he was saying.
Now for the music itself, it's overall dope. There are a some tracks that easilly became some stadouts. As popular as "It Was A Good Day" was, people forgot that "Wicked" was another single (and I think it was the first), featured Don Gorgon. "We Had To Tear This _______ Up" is another track that I found interesting, and Cube showing off his hatred towards what was going on around that time. The origonal version of "Check Ya Self" is also a hot track that featured Das Efx, which I find to be better than the remix.
This album is flawed though. I find a few tracks that fall under skip material here. "Whos Got The Camera" is one of them. Another one would be the weak sounding "Dirty Mack". Another one I didn't have the feel for was "Gangsta's Fairytale 2".
And if you purchased this after 2003, you get a few bonus tracks. You receive the radio edit of "Check Ya Self (remix)" a single that was just as popular as "It Was A Good Day". The remix to "It Was A Good Day" just didn't work in my opinion and falls under skip material. "24 With An L" and "U Ain't Gonna Take My Life" are some good tracks in addition to this album. All of these tracks would also appear on the "Bootlegs And B-Sides" album.
Overall, this is a dope album. It showcased Cube's anger with issues that were going on around that time back in the 90's. This is a good album to have in any hip hop collection, although I don't find it to be good as everyone is saying. There are good tracks on here, but I also find a lot of skippable tracks here as well. When it comes to the remastered albums Cube has had between 1990-1993, "The Predator" is his highest selling album, but in my opinion, I also find it to be his weakest out of the group. Don't hesitate to pick this up though. You probably will have a different opinion that I have.

It's true that Cube's third solo album lacked the righteous fury and sonic assault of AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted and the visionary social scope of Death Certificate, but calling it his third-best album is hardly a consolation prize. It remains the last great album that Cube released before giving in to his gangsta-god complex on later efforts. From a political point of view, Cube doesn't bring a whole lot of new ideas to the plate, but musically the album sounds as good as ever with its dark and aggressive beats. Cypress Hill's DJ Muggs lays down some thick, rolling bass lines for "We Had to Tear This Muthaf---er Up," while DJ Pooh jacks a smooth '70s soul loop from the Isley Brothers for "It Was a Good Day," leaving Cube himself to handle the beats on songs such as "When Will They Shoot," with its stomping beat and flinty edge. --Oliver WangCustomer Reviews:

The best Gothenburg has to offer.......2006-04-05
Soilwork has often been overshadowed by fellow Swedish death metal juggernaut In Flames, but their ability to put out consistently mind-blowing albums has brought them to the forefront of the international metal scene. Seeing them live is second to none, but they're great in the studio as well, and this album really showcases that. This is one of my favorite albums of all time, staying true to the essence of heavy metal while bringing an upbeat, exhilarating style to the table. Every metal fan needs to own this album, period.
Soilwork's best album.......2006-03-07

Pretty much an all around awesome album! Even though nothing entirely new is offered, since fellow musicians such as ATG, In Flames and Dark Tranquillity having already laid much of the ground work for the genre. Yet Soilwork was able to make incredible album on all accounts.
- Stunning musicianship, especially the guitar duo Peter and Ola, both are even flashier on this release then on Natural Born Chaos, (The other album that I have by them.) Also, Vocalist Byron (Aka Speed) has on of the best voices the genre has to offer. Besides his powerful raspy growl he has a great singing voice (This is apparently the first album he introduced the clean-channel vocals...) I also like how they are used more sparingly on this album (As opposed to N.B.C.) Drumming is actually quite varied and he offers a bit more than the traditional beats expected by the genre. The Bass provides a great wall of sound though it, in itself, is quite standard. And last are the Keys which are used appropriately to further thicken the bands wall the sound.
- Fantastic song writing, in fact, there is not one bad song on this album. Tracks like: Needlefeast and Shadowchild are par with anything written by any of the Melodic Death greats I mentioned above, truth is, every single song on this disk is listenable and each really brings its own artistic merit.
Like I had said earlier this album doesn't really break any ground in the genre, but it was par, if not exceeded the genre standards. Basically, it just kicks a lot if ass. (Similar to what Unearth's - Oncoming Storm was to Metal-core)
Favorite Songs: A Predator's Portrait, Shadowchild, Bastard Chain and Needlefeast.
-4.5 Stars.

Possibly the best Soilwork album of all time........2006-01-03
Compared to the other three of their albums I have, A Predator's Portrait puts them all to shame. The guitar harmonies are incredible. Bjorn's vocals are incredible. His transitions from screams to melodic vocals are wonderful. Well placed melodic choruses really give this album personality.
If you like bands like In Flames, Mnemic, At The Gates, Dark Tranquilty, etc, go pick this up along with ALL of their other albums.
Side note: If you like Soilwork and all the above mentioned bands, check out Illdisposed, Dew-Scented, and Sybreed.

Product Description
2006 Release. The group Hectic Watermelon is the fresh expression of guitarist-composer, John Czajkowski, and the band's new album, The Great American Road Trip, reveals the entire groups passion for delivering a delightfully nuanced sonic smorgasbord. Czajkowski formed the power trio with musical partners Darren DeBree and Harley Magsino on drums and bass to deliver an album of new music that still reflects classic sensibilities. The legendary fusion pioneer, Jerry Goodman, joins the lineup on electric violin and is featured on 9 of the 11 tracks. Additional guests include Brian Kahanek, Scott Lerner, and Kevin Freeby who all play on one track each. Experiencing the debut album, The Great American Road Trip, the listener is treated to a nostalgic retrospective that draws from the American jazz-rock tradition of the past four decades with an ambitious new compositional direction. Czajkowski relates, 'My aim has been to write and record an album that has more dimension than an instrumental rock guitar album. I have wanted to try to create a rich collection of music unified by a group of musicians playing material that attempts to build bridges between both high- and low-status types of music. I love all these types of music equally and they are inseparably rooted in both who I am as an American musician and music lover.' The resulting album is a palette of deep compositions that draw idioms ranging from classical, jazz and fusion to progressive rock, bluegrass, and metal.

Product Description
Bostons HELL WITHIN is an aggressive, street-tough metal/hardcore outfit, one part SLAYER, one part HATEBREED, all parts honest. Originally formed in 1998 under the name TWYTCH, the powerhouse immediately created a huge buzz in the New England metal scene, sharing the stage with established acts such as SHADOWS FALL, HAT EBRE ED, SWORN ENEMY , DI S TURBED, CANDIRIA a n d DI E CAS T . TWYTCH released its self-titled debut album in 2001, followed by the Hatred EP in 2003; both releases increased the outfits profile in the region. After extensive touring throughout New England and the East Coast, TWYTCH started fresh by changing its name and sound. Newly titled HELL WITHIN and complemented by a more brutal, technical, and abrasive direction, it wasnt long before LIFEFORCE RECORDS signed the band. HELL WITHINs second album and Lifeforce debut, Asylum Of The Human Predator,wa s recorded with John Ellis at Prism Sound Studio (TRIBE OF JUDAH, GODSMACK), mixed by highly acclaimed Zeuss (HATEBREED, SHADOWS FALL) and mastered by Alan Douches (GOD FORBID, UNEARTH). Asylum Of The Human Predator appeals to a spectrum of metal and hardcore, somewhere between death, thrash and hardcore. Be prepared to be crushed.Customer Reviews:

Not just "Another" metal band.......2005-08-30
Great album, in my opinion, a must own for any true fan, or just someone looking for a great album to add to there collection.
P.S.
If by some chance you can get one of the Limited Edition discs with a DVD (First Pressing only)look for me in the moshpit during the video for Self Inflicted Silence (Big red haired guy in a Marilyn Manson shirt). The Video was filmed in 2003 (while the band was still known as Twytch) at the Locobazooka Festival at the Fitchburg Airport in Fitchburg, Mass.
Yay! More lame metalcore!.......2005-07-29

In its heyday, the criminally underrated Accept could blister and burn with the best of 'em. "Fast As a Shark" was a classic precursor to thrash, and Balls to the Wall was '80s metal at its most outrageous. But the group's umpteenth outing, Predator, is a bit disappointing. Maybe vocalist Udo Dirkschneider has just mellowed with age (What is he now, 60?), but Accept is now playing the kind of bluesy, melody-laden tunes it once rallied against. Okay, songs like "Hard Attack" and "Crucified" still rage with fury, but elsewhere the band sounds too much like ZZ Top and The Cult for comfort. --Jon WiederhornAlbum Description
European edition of the veteran German metal acts latest. $2 lower than the Japanese pressing, but the catch is that it doesn't have the Japanese bonus track. 12 TRX: 1)Hard Attack 7)Predator 2)Crossroads 8)Crucified 3)Making Me Scream 9)Take Out The Crime 4)Diggin' In The Dirt 10)Don't Give A DamnCustomer Reviews:
OK, But Nowhere Near As Good As Their Previous Releases.......2002-12-12
I love the opening track "Hard Attack", it's a real hard rocking a#s kicker! It has the great gang vocals of classic Accept and rocks on in the AC/DC or Krokus sounding style. Unfortunately the rest of the album does not come close to being as good.
The next track "Crossroads" is the next best track with Udo and bassist Peter Baltes sharing the vocals.
Others which are ok are "Lay It Down" and "It Ain't Over Yet" on which Peter sings lead vocals (he sounds like a cross between Paul DiAnno & Gene Simmons), and another couple of rockers with Udo again - "Don't Give A Damn" and "Run Through The Night". However even these are nothing outstanding.
The rest of the tracks are just fillers which should not have been put on an album. I think that they would have been better off holding the release of this album until they put some more better songs on it to give it more consistency. To me it sounds like a band who have lost direction and are about to go their separate ways.
If you wanto to get into Accept, check out albums like "Balls To The Wall", "Restless & Wild", "Metal Heart" & "Russian Roulette".
I don't think this album is worth getting (despite the great opening track) unless you are like me and want to complete your Accept collection. Thankfully Udo has gone on to release far better albums with his new band.
2.5 stars for this one I reckon.
A must for any Accept fan!.......2000-05-22

Suitable Name For Such Excellent Music.......2007-02-20
Just a small taste of blood.......2006-02-04
This cd is pretty damn good, I am very impressed with it. It reminds me of from a second story window meets dying fetus. Taste of Blood really made a powerful statement with predator. it's a very strong "debut" even though it's not really a debut cd, just for tribunal. Cd packs a mean punch, and the live shows are even better. There is something for everyone, breakdowns and some gnarly shredding. Do yourself a favor and pick up this great cd. It's very impressive, especially since these guys are still really young. Look for them in your area, and take notice, they are the future of the death metal and hardcore fusion.
This Band Will Go Places.......2005-08-16
For as small as Tribunal Records is, their band roster is just becoming increasingly more brutal and talented. Such is the case with their latest release by The Taste Of Blood entitled Predator. The Taste Of Blood sounds like Glass Casket, without the constant repetition, better vocals, heavier and far more chaotic.
The Taste Of Blood haven't really done anything new on Predator, they've just done it better, with far better guttural vocals then most metalcore bands can muster. The only qualm encountered with the vocals is the lack of high screams to match the gutturals instead using a more typical hardcore midrange growl. The music aspect of the band is incredibly heavy with quite a few squeals and unrelentingly brutal breakdowns playfully spliced in.
If you're a fan of metalcore and are tired of all the whining and keyboards, The Taste Of Blood is well worth your time.
