5 out of 5 stars Unbelievably awesome!!!!.......2007-07-09

I'm not one who is much for metalcore, as I like the likes of Wintersun, Nevermore, Opeth, Antestor, and Amon Amarth, and such. In fact I was a bit hesitant to get this one, but I really love this album. I even like the screams, which normally I wouldn't. Powerful, melodic, heavy, catchy, and virtuosic. Every song has a solo, many of which are longer and relatively fast. The only downside is it is short, only 39 minutes. Other than that, perfect.

So get it!!!

5 out of 5 stars Unbelievably powerful.......2007-06-17

This band is simply amazing and the best you can get in this genre. Every song on here is well-constructed from the mind-blowing guitar solos from Oli Herbert to Phil's vocals which have an enormous range. The thing about this band is that they are indeed very heavy but in my opinion it seems like every song has a sad mood to it and it is that mood that makes you want to listen over and over again. A great example of realizing this is on "Whispers(I Hear Your)" on the bridge where the guitar plays really heavy and then puts in a soft chord. As for the songs, my review for each is as follows:

1. This Calling 10/10
-Love this song it can be interpreted in so many ways and you can also easily relate it to yourself. The heavy parts are amazing with how Phil's deep screaming harmonizes perfectly with the head-banging guitar.

2. Not Alone 10/10
-A really emotional track that makes you think about the power of love and how it can heal sadness.

3. It Dwells In Me 9/10
-I thought this song is very good like the others however I didn't really see it as a standout track as it represents a theme presented throughout the album.

4. We Stand 10/10
-I love this song. The way I intrepret it is that people with anger in their hearts are often the ones whom have to stand up to the world and be strong. Cool bridge on this song as well.

5. Whispers(I Hear Your) 10/10
-In my opinion, the verse in this song is the best heavy verse in this entire album especially on account of the anticipation of the riff to come in after the acoustic intro.

6. The Weak Willed 7/10
-Personally, I'm not into Death Metal. Although, I like the acoustic parts.

7.Six 10/10
-I first heard this song on Guitar Hero 2 which is where I started to listening to All That Remains(Thank god for that). The bridge on here is irresistable the song would be completely out of place without it. The intro/outro is astonishing.

8.Become The Catalyst 10/10
-Amazing song about having passion and getting rid of the fear of losing that passion hence;("Let the fire consume me.") The chorus is really catchy and my favorite part is "I pound the walls; I shake the cage!"

9.The Air That I Breathe 10/10
-I thought it was a little odd that the two songs about failure were right after one another, but this song is really catchy. Great melodic guitar solo in this one.

10. Empty Inside 10/10
-If you don't like this song something is wrong with you! Probably my most favorite track on the cd.

11. Indictment 10/10
-The beginning riff reminds me of something from Slayer, which is obviously a good thing. To that single riff, I head-bang I never have before. The bridge gives me goosebumps. I love the guitar solo because it is more of a crazy solo rather than a melodic-type solo which is what most of the album is like.

^^Pick Up This Album^^

4 out of 5 stars It's hard, it's soft, it's hard again!.......2007-06-15

I like their screaming, I like their guitars and drums. The chorus parts can get a little corny sounding at times, but I think a little variety helps give them an edge over all the sound-alikes there are out there. I love the guy that has the low scream on "The Weak Willed", its like the grim reaper yelling in your ear! I just think it sounds crazy. I love the double bass kick in the first verse of "This Calling". There's definitely some good stuff on here, it's worth a listen. If you want all screaming lyrics go elsewhere. The singing in some choruses is similar to Hoobastank's album "The Reason". The screaming is awesome, I like their vocals and Unearth's.

2 out of 5 stars why do so many people like this?? .......2007-05-17

I dont know what to say about this band. I know that they're becoming pretty big but i cannot figure out why. This cd is the same cookiecutter over produced sh** that is ruining the repuatation of a great genre of music. Between the repetitive song style, the girly vocals and a lack of originality, this cd isn't even worth the time it takes to listen to it, unless you want to hear the same lame unoriginal song 11 times. I guess if you like cheesy a** copycat metalcore then its a good buy. If you dont feel like wasting your money look elsewhere. From A Second Story Window's Delenda or Nights Like These' The Faithless (I know i know victory sucks but oh well) are a good place to start if your looking to buy some cds. Oh im not 13 either im just sick of signing in.

5 out of 5 stars Shadows Fall Ain't S#@T!.......2007-05-10

Of course you can't really write a review without mentioning SF, (given the history of the two bands) but give me a break, I simple can't stand Brian AT ALL. Dude sounds cheap and forgettable, as do his backing vocalists that couldn't write a catchy riff if their life depended on it. SF are nothing, I stepped in a pile of Dog crap and thought of them the other day.

ALL THAT REMAINS on the other hand are far from the pile I mentioned. I find that at anygiven time of the day, I have riffs running through my head from this new release. Not to mention that production wise this is the heaviest by far, not really too much different from the last release but it is HEAVIER-(somehow.)

As a guitarist, (which is a huge part of my beef with SF - cause again they SUCK) I find All That Remains to be on the top of their game. And the material is just honest. The stories are real and true to life, but then again SF could be, but I fall asleep before they ever get to their point.

There isn't one song on this disc that I don't love, but 1 - 2 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 9 & 11 are my favs, the rest are just my second favs.

SF is a history lesson Phil and ATR are present and FUTURE.

Amazon.com

If there's one thing film producers and record executives like more than Success, it's Success: Part 2. Thus when Ridley Scott's high-tech sword 'n' sandal epic scored both Golden Globe wins and Academy Award nods for Best Film and Best Score, it was a sure bet that another volume of Hans Zimmer's and Lisa Gerrard's music for the film couldn't be far behind. Though not exactly leftovers, the tracks here sometimes point to the fact that there wasn't enough fresh material to fill this volume out, hence we get some remixed cues, a handful of familiar music with dramatic dialog excerpts edited and superimposed (or misplaced, with decidedly mixed results), and even a beat-heavy, dance-club mix of "Now We Are Free." With a little over half an hour of entirely fresh material and some souvenir dialog snippets over the rest, there's enough here to please Gladiator die-hards. Also of note: guitarist Heitor Pereira's flamenco-flavored flourishes are better showcased throughout; and "The Gladiator Waltz" serves up one of Zimmer's original synth demos (with a dash of Russell Crowe dialog up front)--a dramatic amp-up of Holst's "Mars, the Bringer of War" that's a prime example of the composer's state-of-the-art digital orchestral conjuring. --Jerry McCulley

5 out of 5 stars Essential.......2006-12-30

One of those pivotal soundtracks. Unfortunately, there is dialogue over a few of the tracks, but it is well worth sitting or fast-forwarding through. There is a duduk (the sound used for that thing Mr. Tumnus plays in 'Narnia'), and I have fallen in love with it. There is the use of a female voice (Lisa Gerrard) wailing in another language, which had become something of a trend ('Troy', 'Munich', 'Narnia' again, and many others). "Now We Are Free" is the kind of song that first intrigues you, then entraps you, and then takes you on an emotional ride. The soundtrack is intensely bittersweet, exciting ("The Gladiator Waltz"--yes, you're supposed to giggle--Hans did!), and just very consumable. If you were impressed by movie--and I haven't run into anybody yet who wasn't--then consider this soundtrack an equivalent of that experience, but audio.

5 out of 5 stars HANS ZIMMER IS THE GREATEST PRESENT DAY COMPOSER!!!.......2005-10-23

I HAVE TO SAY HANS ZIMMER IS THE GREATEST OF HIS ERA. I HAVE PURCHASED ALMOST ALL OF HIS MAJOR SCORES FROM RAIN MAN, CRIMSON TIDE, GLADIATOR, AND EVEN THE LATEST BATMAN AND I KNOW I HAVE PLENTY OF MORE THAT COULD BE LISTED. I FIRST WAS WEIRY ABOUT BUYING THE SECOND SCORE TO GLADIATOR THINKING IT WOULD BE JUST LIKE THE FIRST ONE. IT IS AWESOME AND JUST AS GOOD OR BETTER, IF YOU ARE A TRUE ZIMMER FAN YOU HAVE TO ADD THIS TO YOUR COLLECTION. I HOPE HE KEEPS MAKING MUSIC FOR YEARS TO COME.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent Extention!.......2005-10-22

Gladiator may be the best middle eastern score ever written. The Duduk was incredible!

The first CD was amazing as well, however, I believe this disc to have a few advantages.

First of all, "The Gladiator Waltz." This song TOTALLY improves upon "The Battle" from disc 1. The original stopped way before the new track. The synth sounds are very good, and don't take away from the beauty at all!

Another highlight is "Homecoming" this is a sad, angry song that will have your blood pumping. If you've seen the movie, you remember the scene where Maximus escapes execution, and rides home like a mad man, only to find his wife and son Crucified. A truly angry and intense song.

"Secrets" is a sneaky evil track, portraying the violent insanity of Commodus.

I have mentioned the highlights, but all the rest are great too! A must have CD, even if you own the first!

4 out of 5 stars beautiful music.......2005-07-28

This is just what the title says: more great(beautiful) music from the motion picture, including some "spiced-up" remixes. This album also features sound clips from the movie. Listening to it will make you think you're in Rome again.

2 out of 5 stars Disappointing companion to the Oscar nominated score........2005-05-28

The original score for Gladiator was a grand triumph for composer Hans Zimmer. Unfortunatly, this cd follows a trend during the latter half of the 1990's. When you have a successful score cd, follow it up with a cd full of dialogue, demo tracks and occassional new music. That is what this cd is full off. I expected more of the great music from the movie, instead I was disappointed bitterly.

4 out of 5 stars What the hell happened?.......2006-08-07

I dont get it. I just dont get it. This album should have been the one to break All That Remains out from the underground, but it doesnt. They still remained one of the metalcore scene's lesser known bands, and Phil Labonte's old band, Shadows Fall, outsold them, 10 to 1.
Whoever slept on this album has no idea what they missed. The Riffs are heavy, the vocals pissed and nasty, the lyrics angry and sorrrowfull at the same time, every thing that has come to characterize the metalcore scene, but still, this band went unnoticed. OPEN YOUR EARS PEOPLE!!! Stop listening to second rate bands, and pick up this album, and Their new one, "The Fall Of IDEALs" and be prepared to be blown away!

4 out of 5 stars Good album - All That Remains displays emense potential to be a force within metal.......2006-05-03

There seems to be much debate as of recent over the use of the term "metalcore" in describing numerous bands sharing a sound within that particular genre. There appears to be some growing animosity between those who embrace the genre (and the label attached to it) and those who believe the more extreme metalcore bands are better described as thrash/speed metal. For the purposes of simplicity, I'll refer to All That Remains as a metalcore band in my review, as they display many elements characteristic of the genre in their most recent album "This Darkened Heart."

With "This Darkened Heart," All That Remains manages to deliver a powerful album displaying some innovative songwriting ability, as well as some fairly catchy songs. However, make no mistake about it, despite the catchy nature of some of the songs, "This Darkened Heart" is brutal album delivered with an in-genre intensity matched only by the likes of metalcore giants Lamb of God and Killswitch Engage. The highlights of the album include:

(a) The vocals. Clearly, Philip Labonte's vocals are the stand-out feature of "This Darkened Heart." Labonte sings with an intensity that comes from a place that I imagine would make most people cringe in fear. Far from the typical metalcore scream, his vocal style resembles a more guttural growl (without ever approaching the styling of death metal vocals). Perhaps most impressive, is the fact that Labonte doesn't appear to be "trying too hard" when he is singing/screaming. Rather, his screams appear to be unforced and natural, which is an unusual quality within the metalcore genre, as many vocalists sound as though they are tearing through their vocal cords as they force the most extreme screams within their ability (not that I mind this, I rather like it, but I have my concerns for their longevity as singers, as their vocal cords are undoubtedly sustaining heavy damage). Nonetheless, the vocals serve to lift "This Darkened Heart" above the level of a mediocre album. In addition, Labonte's voice allows All That Remains to retain an element of distinctiveness in their sound, allowing them to be distinguishable from other similar bands.

(b) The songwriting. "This Darkened Heart" displays a fairly amazing degree of songwriting ability. In addition, All That Remains prove that they are indeed excellent musicians. Though I wouldn't quite place the songwriting on "This Darkened Heart" on the level of "Ascendency" by Trivium, it is nonetheless an excellent album. Furthermore, "This Darkened Heart" seems to hint that even better albums lie ahead for All That Remains.

(c) The overall sound of the album. It should come as no surprise that the sound of the album is somewhat reminiscent of other metalcore bands in terms of its sound (i.e., guitar sound). However, the production is solid, and the musicianship is of a high quality. This is not an album that is repetitive, nor is it one that the listener will likely become bored with.

Despite being a good album, "This Darkened Heart" does have its flaws. Perhaps most noteworthy (and this is ironic giving Labonte's excellent abilities as a vocalist), is the fact that there are moments in the album where the vocals are absolutely horrid. The most notable of this occurs on "Focus Shall Not Fail" where Labonte abandons his deep and powerful guttural vocal style that seems to come so natural in favor of a more high- pitched scream/squeal that is almost painful to hear. It is unclear to me exactly why this vocal style was utilized here, as every other aspect of the song is brilliant (especially the clear vocals which make up the song's chorus). It is during this lone moment in the album that I am left with the thought that "this song sounds generic" (i.e., like any "typical" metalcore band). The only other flaw that I found on the album is an inconsistent quality in the songwriting. Despite having excellent songs, "This Darkened Heart" has its share of songs that the listener will likely skip over.

Overall, this is an essential album to own if you are a fan of metalcore (or thrash/speed metal if you prefer). In addition, I feel confident that All That Remains will continue to grow and expand, and will likely be one of the bands standing once the metalcore genre has faded in popularity.

4 out of 5 stars This is metal, no question about it.......2006-03-26

I have to make something clear. Breakdowns do not mean metalcore. They are an essential part of metalcore, but metal bands do them too. With that said, This Darkened Heart is a full fledged metal album. From the acoustic bit that opens the album, to the thrashy title track at the end, it contains buzzsaw riffs, tight drumming, and well-crafted soloing. A big reason this band is passed off as metalcore is because of the vocals. They do resemble that metalcore style, but the music speaks for itself. If you like straight-up metal, do yourself a favor and buy this record.

5 out of 5 stars THIS IS METAL!!!.......2006-02-13

I wish people would stop using the term metalcore to describe this band. I don't care what anybody say's be it fans or the band itself. This is METAL in all of it's glory. metalcore is what I use to describe bands that couldn't hold these guys guitar picks. They use all of the great metal atmosphere from bands before them, early Slayer, and Max lead Sepultura! just to name acouple. A friend of mine who lived in Washington D.C. was raving about these guys and when he came back he let me listen to this album and instantly I became a huge fan!!!

5 out of 5 stars One of the best .......2006-02-07

This is a great album. Melodic, crushing riffage mixed with nice acoustic guitars and piano segments making it feel like a concept album. This band is WAY better then shadows fall.

Remenicent of the college rock days with groups like better than ezra, the gin blossoms, and the nixons, Stereo fuse has a great sound that takes me back to those days, but with a updated kick. This album does include a version of Everything, their hit from their first self titled album in 2002, and also contains many other great tracks. A great sound, easy to preview the songs here on amazon, which hooked me to buy it. So check it out, great lyrics, great melodies.

5 out of 5 stars This is a MUST-HAVE!.......2006-07-03

When this band first started, they were...how do I put it? They were a joke. They were just having fun, playing around, that sort of thing. They didn't seem very serious about what they were doing. This album, All That Remains, changes everything. It shows just how much they've improved and evolved, and... It rocks! The songs are all pretty great. I try to choose one as a favorite but (as corny as this is going to sound) they all have this special place in my heart, lol! I can say that the best three songs on there are All That Remains, The Way I Am, and Wanderlust. I can't go one day without listening to at least one of those songs. Chris Jericho has amazing vocal skills. His voice is just awesome, which surprises me. He's always been just a wrestler to me --my favorite wrestler, but just a wrestler-- and then I listened to this and realized just how talented he is! I could go on all day about how fantastic this cd is, but who really wants to read that? I'll just end it with this. This cd is AWESOME, so if you don't have it now, GET IT! As for me, I'm gonna SPREAD THE FOZZPEL and anxiously wait around anticipating their next CD!

5 out of 5 stars FOZZY! (Yes, there singer is a wrestler).......2005-09-17

When Fozzy put out there first cd it took people by surprise. A singing wrestler! Most people thought it was just a gimmick to get money and cd sales. People listened to it and gave it a chance, and they realized that Chris Jericho could actually sing!

Fozzy released there second cd " Happenstance ". Yes, it was covers of other band's songs. But a few songs was Fozzy's own material. Fozzy finished off the cd with an AMAZING cover of Iron Maiden's " Where Eagles Dare ".

And here we are. There third cd: All That Remains. So how is this one you ask? No covers. Yes you heard me right, NO COVERS! It's all Fozzy's own songs. Chris Jericho's vocals are some of the best I've ever heard. Who expected the guy we see on Monday Night Raw every week to be so good at singing hard rock?! The singing blew me away, I couldn't believe it.

There is much more than singing though. After all, Chris isn't the only one in the band. Let's move on to their guitarist Rich Ward. He is perfect for the band. Head banging guitar riffs that mix perfectlly with the drums. I seriously believe he could be the next Kirk Hammett.

The bass on this cd is excellent. Not much more to add to that. It's perfect.

Overall, if you're looking for a great hard rock/metal cd, then this is definently the one. And Chris Jericho fans. If you've never heard him sing then you have to pick up a copy of All That Remains and hear for yourself, just how amazing he is.

What are you still thinking about it for? GET UP AND ORDER THIS RIGHT NOW! Yes, I see you taking out your credit card....yes you're about to order it......(3 days later). You: " YEAH I GOT MY FOZZY CD! WOW THAT GUY ON AMAZON WAS TELLING THE TRUTH! THIS CD IS AMAZING!"

5 out of 5 stars Some mouths should stay closed...and some fingers, bound .......2005-06-22

The reason this band sounds like Shadows Fall is because the lead singer, Phil Labonte, happens to be the former lead singer of Shadows Fall. The reason this band reminds you of Killswitch Engage is because they have the same producer,Adam Dutkiewicz. Now, as for insulting the musical content of All That Remains, you underestimate very heavily the skills of Ollie Herbert as a guitarist, who is on par, in comparison of musical knowledge and skill repertoire, with people like Buckethead and Paul Gilbert. Before you decide to vent your own frustrations with what you ineptly dub nu metal, get your facts straight. Nu metal was the crunch bands who were allowed only to be puppets of corporations, no solos, no real guitar work, just lots of chugging rhythms, dumb, violent lyrics and a saleable image. Of those bands, only Slipknot stepped out of the shadow of their record label, finally, on the Subliminal Verses, which is still very polished and mainstream. And you're right, Killswitch Engage may have existed before All That Remains, but I have a feeling Ollie Herbert has been trying to make a name for himself with his guitar skills for quite some years, and finally found a band to do it with, when All That Remains formed in 1998, with Phil Labonte still singing with Shadows Fall, as well. For reference, I suggest you listen to Ollie's Betcha' Can't Play This from Guitar World (someone help me with the month. '04), and take note of what he says about the riff's construction. He is much more musically grounded than people who go on stage knowing what it sounds like only after they play it. Also, before you make vociferous, snap judgments about bands, only hearing what Amazon offers you through their fish-tanked sound clips, which make almost every metal band indistinguishable from another, I suggest you go out and buy a record other than Killswitch Engage, who you seem to be enamored with, worshipping them as the gods of all things metal. You may want to start with Frank Zappa's "Them or Us," Steve Vai's "Passion and Warfare," or Death's "Human." As for legitimacy, All That Remains is a gem of a find in a minefield of metal that can be zombifying in its similarity. The only thing that justifies their label as a hardcore band is Phil Labonte's singing and reputation.

Speeding on in harmonic minor and diminished fury,

5 out of 5 stars Talent And Heart.......2005-03-04

All that remains is one of the best in metal/hardcore scene today. They may not be as big as some other bands but they definitly have the talent and drive to back it up. Ive seen them live about 4 times now and they sound just as good live as they do on their albums. This album is brutally mind blowing from start to finish. If you liked "This Darkened Heart" Then your going to want to pick this one up beacuse its just as great.

Favorite Tracks 1 & 3

5 out of 5 stars Great album.......2004-10-12

This is a very good album. I almost wish I had heard this before "This Darkened Heart". This album has a more raw feel to it. Less production trying to clean up the sound, which I like. I think both albums are great, but TDH sounds almost like they blended with Killswitch Engage (makes sense, seeing as how TDH was recorded and produced by Killswitch's guitarist, who also produces KE's stuff). This album definately has a more old school metal/grindcore feel to it. Either way I feel ATR is one of the best newer metal bands out there.

5 out of 5 stars Great Cd!.......2003-12-20

Yah, this cd definatly felt like someone hit me in the back of the head with a baseball bat. It definatly comes at you hard and fast, both I like! If your into the heavy scene youll like this. Mike (Drummer) Comes into my work every so often. Only met him once but now that ive heard what they can do, I cant wait to meet him again.

    Album Description

    The four works on this newly remastered CD are eloquent testimony to Harry Partch's aesthetic of corporeality. The music he composed for The Dreamer That Remains, for Rotate the Body in All Its Planes, for Windsong, and for Water! Water!, was intended as only one component in the total artistic experience. In these works music joins with drama, with film, with dance, even with gymnastics, as integral parts of the composer's vision.

    "The eloquent and affecting The Dreamer That Remains (1972) was Partch's last work. It was commissioned by the patroness Betty Freeman for her film on Partch which was directed by Stephen Pouliot. Rotate the Body in All Its Planes (1961) was a spin-off of the "Tumble On" sequence in Partch's large-scale theatre piece Revelation in the Courthouse Park. It was premiered at the National Collegiate Gymnasts Championship in 1961. Windsong (1958) was also written for film, the soundtrack to a film by Madeline Tourtelot in which Partch saw the Greek myth of Daphne and Apollo. (A later version of the work was named Daphne of the Dunes). Finally, somewhat akin to a Broadway musical, Water! Water! (1961) is perhaps Partch's most lively and lighthearted work. It pokes fun at many targets, especially the rush of audiences for water at the interval; thus the subtitle: "An Intermission with Prologues and Epilogues.

    5 out of 5 stars Is this worth a buy?.......2005-10-28

    Definitely, yes. If you liked the Zak Stevens version of Savatage, then you will most certainly enjoy Circle II Circle. I actually like Zak in Circle II Circle more than Savatage; the songs just seem to better fit his voice and style. Now we just need Jon Oliva to release something new with Savatage (not another concept album, though).

    But I digress. If you like Circle II Circle you should own the All That Remains EP. Sure there are two versions of the title track and In This Life is also available on The Middle of Nowhere. But the two new songs, Strung Out and Shadows, are excellent tracks. There is no filler here. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
