Customer Reviews:

Great CD.. Just not the 'toys your used to..........2006-05-18

Listen with an open mind, and ENJOY! Especially Monster Man and Share the Kill. this cd is a gem...

One of their best albums! If not, the best!.......2006-01-11

I've been a fan of these guys since their first album, having grown up in Austin, Texas where the band practiced and played all those years. I really like each album for different reasons but this album seemed to take it up a notch and poise them a bit more for the future at the same time. I think it was their most professional effort to date and was showing the right signs of a band that was putting out their 4th album.

It seems cliche' now to say this but if it had been marketted better they would've gone very big on this album. Who knows what would've came next? I saw these guys many many many times at the Back Room in Austin and probably a couple of other places. They always put on a great live show! And it was never too much money either. Ah! The good ol' days!

Overall, this is my favorite album bar none. I think it shows their overall abilities. I still love everything else they did but this really impressed me.

Favorite songs: Share The Kill, Cure The Sane, The Numb, Take Me Swiftly, Transmission, Better To Die, New Anger, Monster Man and Live The Lie.

You want broken ground ..or not?.......2005-07-28

All the time I hear complaints about "New Ground NOT being Broken" in the world of hard rock/metal. Well folks, this IS grond breaking and if given a chance to sink in...it very good! I dare any metal/alternative head to give it a listen.

Heavy stuff.......2004-03-15

This swan song studio album from DT was a very different affair.
Bass player Mike Watson had left and vocalist Jason McMaster took over his place. The song here are harder and more industrialized. That would propably be a bad thing for most fans, but I must admit that their songwriting is still up to par. This is a very good album, but perhaps not a DT album like you know them.
1. Share The Kill - Blew my mind first time I heard it. Very heavy, but man what killer song. Gets the blood pumping. Great.
2. Cure The Sane - Grungy. Great chorus and groovy riffing.
3. The Numb - In your face riffing. Heavy music. Melodic vocal. Good tune.
4. Take Me Swiftly - The repetitive vocal line makes this song so cool. The riff. Perfect.
5. Heard It All - A slow song. Great all the way through.
6. Transmission - Another slow one. This is one great song. The melody lines are so amazing. This one gets to the brain. A little lame lyrics though.
7. Words On The Wall - Aggresive metal song. Not bad, not my fav,
8. Better To Die - One of the best on the album. More like old school DT.
9. Down Inside - the weakest track on the album. Has that distinctive grunge moaning. And the chorus never takes of either.
10. New Anger - Starts of perfect. Aggresive and great. The problem comes with the chorus. It seems like they tried to do something unexpected with the chorus, and in my book they don't succeed. This could have been an amazing song. Seems unfinished.
11. Monster Man - Heaviest song ever. They are outsabbathing Black Sabbath. Great stuff.
12. To Live The Lie - The winner on the album. This epic-like rocker. You should get the album for this track alone.
13. Mom & Dad - A short little ditty. Muddy slide guitar with vocals sounding like its sung through a phone. Very cool.

Buy this only if you concider yourself open minded.
If you're into the other DT albums, this one will sound different but it's really equally good.

What the H*LL happened to Dangerous Toys????????.......2004-01-21

Someone has kidnapped Dangerous Toys and replaced them with some industrial/grunge/techno band!!!!! Nothing like the good old stuff from Teas'n to Pissed. I was disappointed track after track. A total waste of money, BEWARE!
