5 out of 5 stars Gravity Kills' First.......2007-02-19

Well, where do I start. This is Gravity Kills' first release and I must say it's their best. I had, for the longest time, had a tough time deciding on what was better "Perversion" or the "Self-Titled". Both are great but I feel the first has a much darker atmospheric style. The whole album seems to flow in and out until you reach your destination of the end. Even the opener "Forward" sets the tone, preparing you for what's to come. I don't think there is one below average track on this cd. My favorites from the release are probably "Guilty", "Here", "Inside", and "Hold". Here's the ratings...

2. Guilty - 10/10
3. Blame - 10/10
4. Down - 10/10
5. Here - 10/10
6. Enough - 10/10
7. Inside - 10/10
8. Goodbye - 8.5/10
9. Never - 10/10
10. Last - 10/10
11. Hold - 10/10

Overall: 98% A

It's a really good start for a pretty good band. I'm suprised they didn't get more popular than they did. The whole album is awesome. My only complaint would be that the track "Inside" is too short. Also, I would strongly disagree that this band is a ripoff of other Industrial acts like Nine Inch Nails just because of how different it sounds. The vocals make it unique and the fact that it never slows down and gives you a more sad side like with NIN's "Pretty Hate Machine". It's just much more angry unlike NIN which has a sad and angry side. Both are great though, and have plenty to offer. Anyone who enjoys acts like Filter, Nine Inch Nails, or even Ministry should check this out.

4 out of 5 stars Dunno why everyone's so down on this one.......2005-11-20

I think Gravity Kills gets unfairly dumped on just because they happened to get famous after NIN and Skinny Puppy. Quite frankly, I don't know what it is you wouldn't like about this CD if you liked all those other ones. OK, so it's not the most original thing on the planet, but so what? It's fun to listen to, and that's honestly all I ask. Maybe others demand some kind of earth-shattering experince, but I think that's just being unreasonable.

There are some slight dragging moments in here, but overall it's a solid, if conventional, idustrial rock production. If "breaking the mold" is what you want, then maybe stay away, but its by no means a bad album.

1 out of 5 stars Few FEW catchy parts, but mostly generic..........2005-05-13

I'm finding it hard to believe that this received a 4.5 cumulative review. Now I generally love this kind of music; I am a huge NIN, Skinny Puppy, and somewhat of a KMFDM and Stabbing Westward fan. This is just so lifeless, and by-the-numbers though and you really can tell listening to it. Take the lyrics for "Guilty" for instance (one of the higher points of the album). "1 and 1 and 1 make three. 1 and 1 why can't you see. Im killing you, you're killing me" Don't kill me if those aren't the exact lyrics but whatever, just generic uninteresting stuff. There's a reason you can buy this used for what was it....$1.94? OH and you can get there follow up (i think it was the follow up) "Perversion" for one cent!! Yes that's right one f**king cent. There's a little guilty pleasure to be found on here with (i didn't mean to do that) "Guilty" and "Enough" almost shows some promise. Everything else is predictable garbage with the same disco beat to all of it. I don't like being harsh on CDs I own, since I did buy the thing after all, and I did try to give it a fair chance. Some deserve it though. I'll sell you my copy for a quarter if you want it.

5 out of 5 stars their best work!.......2005-03-11

I bought all three albums from here because i saved a bunch of money and I've been meaning to get their cd's for years. Their first is my favorite but they are all good. The first one is so innovative for its time 96 I think.

5 out of 5 stars The First and the Best!!!.......2005-02-04

This cd kicks! The band started in '94 and this came out in '96, and I still listen to it alot. It's just a great album. Now, I consider myself to be a rock/metal type of guy, so this is about as close as I get to "BigBass/Techno/Pop/HipHop" kinda stuff... but I just gotta make an excep. for these guys. It's rock that can also appeal to your dance side, so just the hard-core people won't like it. Other than that it's all good; same with their other two or three albums after this one. All summer long, I love to roll-up at a stoplight with this stuff blasting! haha... GK forever!!!
...sorry to see you guys go:(

In the wake of Nine Inch Nails' ascent to superstardom, a gaggle of bands usurped at least seven of Trent Reznor's nine inches and crafted catchy electronic metal songs that festered with brooding angst. One of the best of these groups was Gravity Kills, which balanced melody, noise, and grooveability in equal parts. But the band's second disc, Perversion, lacks the immediacy, dynamics, and hooks of their self-titled debut. The songs are constructed in the same mechanized dance framework, but they don't build and dip in intensity, and they rarely create any atmosphere but radio-static overload. There are a few exceptions. "Wanted" shifts from a jaggedly lumbering surge to a buzz-saw grind, and "Disintegrate" features some compelling drum & bass beats and a pretty decent chorus. Overall, however, Gravity Kills have slipped from their perch and are now nearly indistinguishable from any other bar band with samplers. --Jon Wiederhorn

5 out of 5 stars Gravity Kills' Sophomore Release.......2007-02-19

Well, they did it. For a Second release Gravity Kills still manages to make another amazing album. For the awhile I had the hardest time deciding on which was better; the first or the second. It ended up being the first just because of the overall greatness. I seems to be that the first has a little more of a sludgy slow feel to it and the second is a bit more fast paced. The second, however, has a couple of better tracks than the first has to offer. Some of my favorites from the album are "Falling", "Crashing", "Drown", and "Alive". Here's my track ratings...

1. Falling - 10/10
2. If - 10/10
3. Crashing - 10/10
4. Drown - 10/10
5. Alive - 10/10
6. Wanted - 9.5/10
7. Always - 10/10
8. One - 9/10
9. Disintegrate - 10/10
10. Belief (To Rust) - 9/10

Overall: 97% A

Overall for a second release it doesn't disappoint. I don't think it flows as well as the first one does but with tracks like "Alive" and "Crashing" it definatly gives the first a run for its money. Anyone who enjoyed the first or just loves a good dose of Industrial Metal should give this a shot. You actually might like what you hear.

4 out of 5 stars Not as good as the first, but solid........2005-09-27

I know, I told you in early 2002 that it was great. But at that time I was also like 14 or 15. In years to come, I've listened to this again in occasion, and I realize that it is not really the wonderful album I though it was. Oh, and now since I'm 18 I've heard so many other albums that things put it in perspective.

But also, what many forget is that music is in fact subjective. That's why bands like this have a fan base. What the band lacks is made up for in good overall songs. Contrary to popular belief, I think people will compare anything angry that has keyboards to NIN, no matter how it sounds. The first time, it was partly faulted in production, which was done by the same guy who produced "PHM". This, the second GK album, while not perfect does have its moments.

Sadly, you can sort of hear a lack of edginess, which can be blamed on the record label, TVT, which is why they left after this album. It's definitely got its moments. I like the more electronic tracks on the album. Particuarly with "Alive", which is really edgy, with heavy bass and drum. While the drums were simple, the song turned out to be a pretty good one. "Disintegrate" has a repetitive yet addictive synth riff. It makes the song, as does the verse beat. It also ends on a great note. While not really electronic, I particuarly do enjoy the rhythm of "Belief (to Rust)", which shows that some of the lyrics here are really great. It also surprisingly ends with some chimes.

Some songs are in typical Gravity Kills formula, so if you wanted some of what you heard the first time around, there is some of that. "Drown" and "One" are good examples of this. Neither track is particularly spectacular. However, it does show a metal side to the band. Just don't expect any guitar solos or anything in Gravity Kills.

But what makes it great is that while it's not completely talented, the songs themselves were written well enough and some of the members did show some talent. Doug Firley had some great keyboard lines and synth riffs while Jeff Scheel was a great singer, and in spite occasionally sounding like Trent when getting nasal, he was rather unique. As for the other two members, they don't get involved enough with their instruments, but I do like a lot of the drumming anyway. Although I still absolutely love the first album, this one is good but has some tracks that don't stand out quite as much. If you like what you know from Gravity Kills, I recommend it. If you don't, I can't guarantee that you'll like it.

4 out of 5 stars Good for a 2nd..........2005-02-04

This one wasn't quite as good as their first one, but it still rocks none the less. It's still the same stuff, just mixed up a bit more here and there. I LOVE "falling" and "alive". There's a few other good ones on here too. Oh! and the song "crashing" is deff one of the bands best! Buy this one and rock on!!!

3 out of 5 stars hmmmmm.... i guess.......2004-01-22

Well, if your like me you probably heard their first radio hit song.... (guilty).... and if like me you probably liked it. since then i havent heard from them nor purchased a cd. So i thought id give them a try.... I have to agree they sound very...i mean very similiar to NIN.... nothing wrong with that. But the music gets repetitive, id have to say the best song on this album is the last one.... Belief(to rust). But only because its very deifferent than the rest. If your in a rock out mood, then this cd is the answer, if your more into creativeness, then perhaps you should listen to something else.... all in all its a cd i can listen to, a few times get tired of it, and never play it again until im angry or drunk.

5 out of 5 stars Gravity Kills Rocks.......2003-06-10

What you got here is failure to recognize good music. People try and compare bands these days to just about anything. The truth is this band went from their first album, which popped out three good singles which both hit TV and dance clubs. This band crossed two of musics most popular sounds and created one heavy hitting sound. From Mortal Kombat to TBS promos this band got through on their first and didnt disappoint on their second. Instead of trying to copy something, they built on what they started from. Making some of the guitars heavier and more dominant, while keeping the vocals and mixing where they should be and taking the beats to a newer level. This is a great album and one of the greatest follow-ups in music.

4 out of 5 stars Good Single.......2002-09-29

This is a pretty good single if you ask me. It has 11 tracks (which is pretty generous for a single) most of them are remixes for Guilty and then there is a couple instrumentals for those remixes and then there is the demo version of Goodbye and a remix for it aswell. If your a Gravity Kills fan then you should definitley check this out.

5 out of 5 stars I like them, I hope they have more stuff.......2000-08-08

I like their techno-rock sound and they are like Stabbing Westward, Filter and NIN, and I like how they sound different every time.

4 out of 5 stars A really cool-sounding Techno-Dance song EP!.......2000-01-29

I first heard of Gravity Kills in early 1996, when this song "Guilty" was being played on a local alternative rock station. It took a few listens before it started to grow on me some more, but I had no interest in buying the group's full-length self-titled album just yet. Now, I've got this awesome rockin' EP with the regular version and 8 remixes of "Guilty", and it also includes another great track "Goodbye" (the demo version and one remix) which I had heard from the "Mortal Kombat" soundtrack. All in all, I've decided to just keep this slammin' CD and maybe in the future, branch outward into further Gravity Kills material. But for now, this would be the absolute perfect album for blasting at high volume from your car stereo in the inner cities, man! I also recommended KMFDM and Rammstein, by the way. But that's a story for another time...

5 out of 5 stars Guilty is the funkiest song!!!.......1999-06-13

Gravity Kills' third album finds the Missouri-based group striking a perfect balance between rock, metal, and industrial, all the while staying within pop-leaning song structures. Strident rhythms, unrelenting intensity, and processed vocals à la Ministry and Nine Inch Nails are the order of the day, though straight-ahead songs like "Love Sex and Money" display surprisingly few technical bells and whistles despite production by Martin Atkins (Pigface, Ministry). "Fifteen Minutes" (of shame, rather than fame) is catchy and lyrically astute. Jeff Scheel's passionate vocals and keen lyrics elevate even average songs--and there are a few scattered about Superstarved. The standouts include the rousing "One Thing," a fairly true-to-the-original cover of Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," the tortured title track, and the edgy "Wide Awake." These musicians may not be groundbreakers, but Superstarved is an assured outing by a talented quartet. --Katherine Turman

5 out of 5 stars One of the Best Albums I Have........2006-11-08

First off I wanna know why do people always compare this band to NIN cause I don't think they sound anything alike,I mean you can tell it's two differant people singing and NIN music is...well I guess a little heavier, now Gravity Kills and Sister Machine Gun well lets just say I can't tell witch band is witch or if it's gravity kills lead singer(can't think of his name) or sister machine gun's lead singer(again,can't think of his name),and they play they same type of music.

Now on to the actual review of the album,
like my title this is one of my best albums in my cd collection. I have all 5 albums and the MK album, thats how I found out about this band,as soon as I heard the Goodbye demo I was hooked. I bought this album and just like all the rest of the gk albums I don't think theres a song on it that I hate, I think every song is great. its one of my most listened to albums, every time I go some where in my car this album is in the player about 70 % of the time.I hated to here that this was going to be their last album cause I really like listining to gk and whis they wouldn't of broke up.

3 out of 5 stars NIN is terrible..........2005-07-25

Gravity Kills doesn't sound like that horrible band that Trent Reznor created. The only thing that they have in common is they use effects in the music. I've heard this Gravity Kills album and the first one but haven't heard the second one (so I can't comment on that albums similarites to NIN) but both were good rock CDs. This CD isn't amazing and doesn't break any new ground or anything but at least its an enjoyable sound that I revisit every now and then. This is basically a decent CD for when you want something new to listen to.

5 out of 5 stars Five Stars All The Way!.......2005-02-04

This album friggin' rocks. It's about as close to modern-rock as the band ever got, not that the thumping bass and kicks weren't good in their earlier stuff, but this is just a bit less "club". It still holds true to the guitar and vocal style of the band, and out of the dozen or so tracks, i'd say there's at least 7 or 8 that kick ass! And, even though all their other stuff set the tone for the band, I would still say that the song "One Thing" has to be the BEST one the guys ever recorded! (that's right, better than Guilty) You got to have this one to round off your collection... a MUST have!

5 out of 5 stars gk's last and best..........2003-04-30

Throughout the course of their career, Gravity Kills always took a lot of heat for whatever people wanted to dis them about. And they worked hard for everything they did. It culminated in "Superstarved," their last CD, which showed real growth from the band in pretty much all facets of their music.

Pretty much all of the musical aspects on the album sound a bit less polished and glossed over than the unremarkably sterile Perversion. The band makes a serious statement from the first snare shot and power chord of the album on the very traditionally industrial-sounding "love sex and money." It might be a simple progression but they pull it off expertly and with a lot of flourish. When I first heard the scream that closed the chorus I knew the album was going to be all I expected it to be. And Gravity Kills sticks with their basic guitar + drums + keyboards + scream formula for pretty much the whole album, stopping here and there to try something a little different or pick up a different influence. The standouts also include: "fifteen minutes," with very catchy guitars throughout, strong programming and a very powerful chorus; "forget your name," where Duddenhoffer and Firley create a fragmented wall of sound as the bridge of the song and Scheel's carefully honed scream seems to break character for a tiny moment, and you can hear a little bit of pain in there... "breakdown," with catchy drums and a guitar riff building a strong verse, with some of Scheel's best lyrics on the album; "one thing," the logical first single - the song feels very full and well-rounded, and it's got a lot of pop crunch to it; the fractured interpretation of "personal jesus" where Duddenhoffer picks up an acoustic and Firley proceeds to warp the sounds into some melody floating from a futuristic desert; "suffocate," a complex rampage of keyboards and drums punctuated with great stop-and-go guitar riffs and another of Scheel's best efforts on the album. finally, the title track, "superstarved" sees the band breaking the most new ground on the album, moving from a barely pulsating verse into a drum and bass-influenced chorus thrown into a blender with vocal distortion and Duddenhoffer's trademark guitars. The post-chorus and coda of the song has to be some of the best sounding vocals Jeff Scheel has ever done, and oddly some of the most beautifully vicious music Gravity Kills ever produced.

To be honest, Scheel still sings about some pretty dumb and bland stuff now and then, but I challenge you to find an industrial vocalist nowadays who doesn't. That's probably the only downside to the album - each song has good melody and good hooks, something regained from the self-titled debut, but unlike Perversion and Gravity Kills, Superstarved lets each song sound a little different than all the others. The album is very radio-friendly, but received little attention due to the problems the band had with the Sanctuary label. Unfortunately, these problems eventually caused the band to split in January of 2003 and the members to move onto different projects.

Although I'm sad to see them go, Superstarved is a fitting finale for Gravity Kills - they went out fighting with energy in their instruments and the unquenchable fire still stuck in Scheel's throat. This is their best album and should be a must-own for any industrial fan.

2 out of 5 stars Same old, same old.......2002-10-03

When Gravity Kills' first album came out, I was all over it. I played it on my radio show, and I also played it at home. It is a good example of industrial rock, and if the lyrics were a bit silly, the music was good enough, and new enough, that I could let it slide. Gravity Kills' first album was part of the initial onslaught of industrial rock, and the singles were gobbled up by the Hollywood machine for use in soundtracks.

Superstarved is more of the same. The result is a recycled morass. In the years that have passed since their last album, I'd have thought there would be some sort of growth, but what I hear instead is entropy. I would not be surprised if Gravity Kills continues to be used in movie soundtracks. They have that "edgy, angry, raw sound" that works perfectly in action movies or scenes where the protagonist is harbouring thoughts of jealous rage.

However, the music is no longer fresh, and what was once really cool has become generic. And now, I can no longer let the silly, shallow lyrics slide. "Forget Your Name" is probably the worst of the bunch, with lines like "Well I forget your name, but I love you. I forget your name, but I need you, too. I forget your name, I know you're feeling the same, I forget your name, but I want you, want you."

This Shatneresque repetition of simple phrases is used throughout the album. In "Enemy," I hear "I don't want to be your enemy. Never gonna be never gonna be your enemy. I don't want to be your enemy."

The icing on the cake is "15 Minutes". The hollering goes thusly: "I want my 15 minutes of shame. I want my 15 minutes, my 15 minutes of shame."

You got it, guys.

3 out of 5 stars A Decent Remix CD.......2002-09-29

This is basically a remix CD of Gravity Kills' debut album. While these remixes are done fairly well.. The originals are alot better. Probably my biggest gripe about this album is the fact that they only remix 5 songs on here.. which is only half of their debut album.. there is a couple remixes of each of the 5 songs.. this probably would have been more enjoyable if there were a remix of each song from the debut.. that way this wouldn't seem so repeatitive. But its worth getting if your a GK fan.

3 out of 5 stars Doesn't measure up.......2002-08-24

"Manipulated" is remixes solely from Gravity Kills' self-titled debut, so based upon the original album which the remixes were derived from, this remix disc simply does not stand up. The remixes are pure techno industrial and sound derived specifically for the techno industrial dance club but on simply a listeners level they don't capture the original sound of Gravity Kills' self-titled release.

While most of the songs on "Gravity Kills" flowed smoothly through a verse-chorus-verse structure and were firmly put together, many of the remixes on "Manipulated" sound choppy and over or under-produced. There tends to be too much repetition and not enough originality stemming from a majority of the mixes, which doesn't help the disc flow smoothly at all. Examples of the average mixing are Martin Atkins "White Light Remix" and unfortunately for such a great name in industrial, Al Jourgensen of Ministry's remix of "Enough".

That's not to say there aren't some bright spots on the album though. Critter's remix of "Enough" flows above the rest of the songs versions and both remixes of "Guilty" shine above the rest of the album, although the Juno Reactor remix is the better of the two and probably the best track on the album.

This disc is really for die-hard Gravity Kills fans looking to complete their collection and not for anyone new to the band as this will turn off most newcomers. If you want the real deal on Gravity Kills, shoot for the self-titled debut, arguably their best effort, and then "Perversion", which is slightly below the self-titled. Avoid "Manipulated" unless you want watered-down industrial dance music or you're a completist of the band.

5 out of 5 stars Great Remixes.......2002-03-06

*considering it is a remix album*

The remixes are quite different from one another and really qualify to be on the CD. Overall, it's a great addition to your Gravity Kills collection. Personally, if you have not heard any of their stuff, I'd buy on of their 'non-remix' albums first to get a better feel for the music. Don't get me wrong, I thoroughly enjoy this disc!

4 out of 5 stars Good cd.......2001-04-27

This cd was set up nicely. Although there's only 5 different songs total, there's enough versions of them to make a 13 track remix album that leaves you pretty satisfied. Of course people might complain about the two remixes of "Guilty", (their trendiest song), but I like what Juno Reactor did with track 12. The utilized every part of the song except for the catchy chorus, forcing the listeners to focus on all the other parts of the song, like the rad guitar, and the overall speed of the song. If you want the trendy portion of the song, you'll find more of it in track 13, so don't worry. The three versions of "Here" are very good, and the Martin Atkins mix of "Enough" is a good reason to buy the cd. I would recommend buying this cd before the originals. It's always fun to hear the remixes first and work backwards.
