Some Kind of Fantastic.......2007-07-20

Some Kind of Strange was an excellent album. It has a goth/vampire mood music feel to it and that is exactly what I got it for. It is a good album and I plan to get others by this group.

Pretty good...but repetitive........2007-04-18

Let me start off by saying that Collide is a truly amazing band. Their release "Chasing the Ghost" was beyond anything I've ever heard before. I've had it for about a year now, and still I can listen to the whole album in one session without getting the slightest bit bored with it. I would definitely suggest "Chasing the Ghost" for those of you who are new to Collide.

Now for this album: It wasn't horrible. "Crushed" is very a catchy song with an atmosphere of subtle vengefulness to it. "Euphoria" is also another amazing song that has a nice sultry and down-tempo, shoe-gazing type of feel to it sided with an electronic edge. The song seems very mellow at first, but around the third repeat of the chorus it picks up a bit and really climaxes, leaving you completely hypnotized with the song's ending.
The rest of the album isn't bad either and has its high and low points like any other album. After the first two songs, the rest of its tracks pretty much maintain one constant tempo, which is undoubtedly part of Collide's magic, but can get a bit monotonous after awhile. I guess the listener's own preferences would play a part in whether or not they can tolerate some slight monotony. I must say though, the down tempo feel really creates a carthartic atmosphere.
There are some other good songs to this album too, such as "Tempted" and "Slither Thing" which takes on a different and almost unexpected feel...and a few other, also.

Overall this album was pretty good...not Collide's best....but certainly not horrible. I'd only suggest it to those who have already been exposed to Collide, however. Chasing the Ghost would have to be the suggested album for those just discovering this band.

Very Atmospheric (feels like being somewhere both beautiful and dark).......2007-04-13

Some Kind of Strange is a mesmerizing. Collide are very successful at creating atmospheric music that is slow and beautiful. Music of this kind can often get repetitive and cause the listener to lose interest. Collide avoids this pitfall. This album is captivating.

Some of my personal favorites include:

"Euphoria", "Somewhere", "Slither Thing", "Complicated"

Also, "Vortex" (A double disc Collide remix album) is definitely worth checking out. It is probably one of the most interesting remix albums I have ever heard.

Beyond good.......2007-04-13

I visited a friend of mine i hadn't seen since october, and she immediatly began raving about some CD's i had given her. I realized then that I myself had been listening to Collide since beginning of october and have not stopped since i got "chasing the ghost"

The music of collide is sensual and energetic and is just beyond anything that music today has to offer. The maturity of sound and lyrics is in scope with stuff from Nine Inch Nails.

Recently i began buying other albums by this phenomenal group and Some Kind of Strange has captivated me. Euphoria is one of the best songs on the album but its not the only thing it has to offer.

Describing the sound and energy isn't enough, it can only be experianced.

Some Kind of Strange -- Inspiration divine!.......2007-04-13

To those familiar with the band it's no surprise to find the haunting vibes within each and every song. This Cd absolutely has to be one of the most inspiring of all the Cd's I own. In fact, one of the songs on the Cd actually sparked an inspiration..an idea for a novel actually. It's not completed at this time, but I remember hearing the song and the story instantly coming to life..as if the lyrics had been written with the main character in mind. There is simply so much personality in Collide's music, and Some Kind of Strange is a mover---meaning, you simply can't just listen to the cd without feeling.. something.

The best so far.......2005-08-02

Tommy T returns with slew of friends to make the Distortion Chamber the best Diverje disc yet. Joining Tommy this round are Josh Wood (The Mercy Cage), Vince Pujol (E.S.R.), Xon (Boundless/Symbiont), and Justin Cameron (Lexincrypt)-just to name a few. if you have any experience with these bands, you will love this record and clearly see the various artists influences (If you haven't heard them, look for them at DSBP records). This is the heaviest Diverje disc to date, and therfore my fav. Best tracks are #5 -You Pleasure (Harsh), #6 -I walk alone, and #7 No time for compromise. However, many other tracks are also good. You will find something for all electro fans. Heavily distorted vox and synths, great programming and pummeling beats, and a few danceble club tracks. I give it only 4 stars b/c I am a fan of lyrics (yes, even in industrial music) and while I love the message in Tommy's lyrics, sometimes they just don't work. All in all, great disc, their best yet. 15 tracks - 74 minutes of harsh electro/industrial. Shows that even record label presidents can make great music.
