Why'd they break up?.......2007-02-20

There are few bands that compare, FenixTX rocks hardcore. This CD is well worth the buy.

tex/mex blink 182.......2004-10-26

This album isn't awful and it is not hardcore punk album by any means but it is a sugary sweet punk album that is actually better than blink 182. Lechuza is a better album this album sounds sort of bland like New found glory, good charlotte or simple plan and Blink themselves who actually opened the flood gates to these little super poppy-punk bands. Pop- punk has always existed since the 70's (Buzzcocks, Dickies, Undertones) it's just that some bands can pull it off (Green day, descendents,vandals) and some bands can't. This is an ok release and probably one of the better from this particular genre. best songs: "surf song", "speechless" , "G.B.O.H."

I give it no stars, actually... it blows........2003-09-22

Look, this CD, though banal and ill-conceived like a debut CD, is not... get that through your heads. These charming gentlemen were the band River Fenix, and had releases since 96... anyways, this is a terrible CD, uninventive, clichéd and down right scary... I'm just amazed that they could go from this trite sack of power pop punk garbage to the even more abominable and insipid neo-emo now on the radio with their latest release...

GREAT FOR POP PUNK.......2003-05-30

I'd expect people who listen to Nofx or BR to have the intelligence of knowing not to touch this CD. But for those pop punkers out there, this CD might be for you.

All My Fault, Minimum Wage and Jolly Green Dumbass are great songs. The Surf Song has got the be the worst song I've ever heard tho. So some you might like, some you might not.

Remember, their second one is better, and they have broken up.

P.S.: I gave this 4 star b/c of the Surf Song. It is really THAT bad, even for a pop punker.

Certainly not what youd expect..........2003-05-23

"The only difference is that Fenix,Tx has one more guitar than blink and Travis (and Scott) are/were better drummers then the drummer for Fenix,Tx." your high you obviously haven't heard lechuza damon was/is one of the best drummers ever... travis is a great drummer and i wouldn't have busted your balls if you had only said travis but scott was horrid."

They're Back.......2007-03-07

One of the best bands ever has finally returned. I could listen to this CD for hours and not get bored. They have the classics, as well as a few new ones. If you haven't heard Fenix TX, then given them a try, I don't know how you couldn't like them.

Tired of pop-punk.......2004-10-26

Fenix Tx changed their lineup around and grew up a little and turned out what i think was the best rock album of 2001. That pop-punk stuff got old quick so these guys turned out an effectively intense follow up to their self-titled debut. I'm sure they got tired of the comparisons to blink 182 so they decided to go a different way which to me it works. I saw them live four times and twice it was for their Lechuza tour and they kicked major ass. This album is just an amazing rock record. For all you pop-punk fans there are only like 2 songs that even remnotely sound like their first album. Best songs: "something bad is gonna happen" ,"katie w.", "abba zabba" and "a song for everyone".

* Has got to be my Favourite CD *.......2004-05-09

I love this album so much. I can't beleive how much I was missing out on. I downloaded it about...1 month ago, and have been playing it all the time, and I haven't got bored.

It's a lot better than their debut album. I mean, Surf Song, what the hell is that?? Seriously. It's not big, it's not clever, it just sucks. I think on this album there are no low points, and every song is good :)

They have the same sort of sound as Blink, but just sound more grown up. The lead singer has an amazing strong voice, and the guitars on it are so good.

My favourite songs are:

Threesome - it's so catchy, I've been singing it all the time. It has really good words, which are easy to understand. I think that's good because you can sing along better :) The only way it can be improved is by making it longer. Come ON Fenix, you're only giving us 2 and a half minutes here!

Tearjerker - Not really that much to say. It's such a sweet song with great words that are really heartfelt.

Abba Zabba - This never used to be one of my favourites, but now I can't get enough of it! I love the intro, it sounds just like The Strokes who are another of my favourite bands. It has great words and a really catchy chorus.

El Borracho - This is the last song on the album, and is a fantastic way to finish it. It's a really slow, almost ballad song, which such beautiful words. The intro is great, and the instruments are just...wow. The lead singers voice is so suited to this, and he sings in a really low, passionate way.

I love this album, and it is definitely worth having :) xx

whatever happened to these guys?.......2004-05-06

Their first album was better than any Blink album, and this one was just a kick ass F'n album. This was like the soundtrack for the summer of 2001 for me...It was awesome!!Saw em' at warped tour. They got a new guitarist which added some harder elements to the band, and their songwriting is superb...I guess they didn't want to be dubbed as the kings of Bubble-punk...Well, whether they like it or not, they are the pop-punk kings and as soon as they disappeared there was an idiot uprising...Please get your asses back in the throne and RULE!!!!

Best CD ever.......2004-05-04

Some people might not agree with me. But personally this is my all time favorite cd. I bought it the day it was released for $6.99 and on the first listen loved some songs thought some were ok. But boy did it grow on me. The placement of all the songs on the cd, the diversity, heck even the song titles are fantastic. Plus there is no silence on the whole cd. each song segways into another than totally goes to a new place. I'm still very bitter they broke up because if this is what they release for a "sophomore" album than what could they have done?

First Love.......2007-03-04

After thirty years without Gato, I've returned to my first love. "Fenix" was all the rage on college campuses in 1972. It's the first jazz album I ever listened to. I'm not sure why Gato has been shut out of the jazz canon. I find very few written sources mentioning his music. I gather that the reduction of his music to a "smooth formula" in pursuit of large sales after his success with "Last Tango in Paris" did not endear him to the jazz intelligentsia. Nevertheless, "Fenix" is "high octane" before Gato's fall from grace. The crass commercialism that followed can almost be forgiven when listening to this very "wicked" music!

The Cat, before he went "smooth"!.......2007-02-20

Gato's first US recordings were with leaders of the N.Y. "free jazz" avant garde in the late '60's, (Don Cherry, Carla Bley) and his use of "screech" tones in the high end of his horn's range concealed an essentially romantic conception. By "Phenix" he had gotten more comfortable in bringing Latin American concepts, and instrumentation into his music; on Phenix, he flirts with electric instruments (guitar, bass, and Fender Rhodes piano) as well.

The result is intense, yet, in places, almost too "pretty" for an avant garde player. Within a couple of years, after a group of albums for Impulse in Latin America, and the "Last tango" soundtrack, he'd suddenly gone "smooth". But that was later...

Their upcoming release Purple Reign in Blood was recorded live and features all their hits, some amazing covers and a band produced video for the song Katie W.Fenix TX's previous releases both performed exceptionally well without a major breakthrough radio hit.Lechuza, releases in 2001 over 150,000 US sales SoundscanFenix TX released in 1999 over 225,000 US sales SoundscanTheir high energy pop punk sound has put them at the forefront of the genre since the first single Everything's My Fault became a radio anthem. At the height of their success, while touring for the Lechuza release that garnered the classics, Threesome and Pheobe Cates, Fenix TX called it quits.Their absence from the pop punk presence has been missed and the much discussed break-up taken on mythical proportions on the internet. Re-united and reinvigorated, the band returns with a non stop rapid fire pup punk assault!

Kick Ass Live Performances!!!!.......2005-11-12

An essential album for Fenix TX fans. Fenix TX's high energy is brought to life on stage. Awesome versions of classic songs like "Pheobe Cates," "Tear Jerker" and "Threesome." Fenix TX's covers of CCR's "Fortunate Son" and Bowie's "Major Tom" are a rare treat. Highly suggested! Fenix TX fans and fans of the pop-punk genre will be stoked!

After Jaco, Carles to me is the most musical bassist and mandolinist existing on the planet> He is so intense and expressive that it always makes my skin turn to goose bumps. He will always be the most inspiring bassist, and I will always try to learn his style and message.

false advertising.......2006-07-14

don't get me wrong, this is a great song. but there's only the one song here. the album version of threesome. the product description says there's a live version of threesome and a live version of a song for everyone. plus the video for threesome. this is misleading and i am very disappointed. i have the album lechuza, where this song comes from, so i basically just wasted $2.50 plus $2.50 for shipping for one song i already have.

A must have for the Riverfenix/Fenix*TX completist.......2006-04-27

The live versions of Threesome and A Song For Everyone from the Astoria (London, 2002) are great, high energy, but sound a bit muddy (Purple Reign has much better sound quality). The video quality is very good. This is a UK release.

Absolutely a Must Have.......2003-12-13

This is one of a kind CD, full of emotions and very inspiring. Daniela demonstrates why she is one of the most acclaimed and enduring Latin-American pop singers. She is among the best in the business. It will be very easy to notice the quality of her work the minute you open the CD. If this is your first Daniela Romo CD (like in my case) you will start looking for her previous music just to find that her previous work is as outstaning as this latest release.

She really shines and her maturity and sensibility are in every aspect of this album. You will feel the need to have this CD within easy reach.

... Simply you must have it!

I didn't expect to get such a wonderful present..........2003-11-04

Daniela is at her best now... This CD is really worth buying... She puts everything into it...

She is a real angel... I like to have all her CDs within easy reach...

Trust me and buy it...

Daniela is super cool!!!.......2003-04-27

Daniela Romo is a woman whose music is thought to only be ballads ,but she proves everyone wrong,and as such,for this musical deliacacy ,she is teamed with Loris Ceroni(producer of OV7)The best here are as such:"Te quiero mi amor"(full of pop finesse)"Las heridas"(the best ballad here)and three of her greatest hits redone to sound more modern(De mi enamorate,Quiero amanecer con alguien,and,Non miglio voici la luna),if you like dance music then this offering is most definetely you....,

EN GRAN REGRESO DE DANIELA.......2001-05-28

Daniela ha logrado plasmar en AVE FENIX su estilo, clasico que siempre ha caracterizado a Daniela. Un ritmo muy italiano, muy porp y moderno.

Ave Fenix representa el trabajo de mas de un año de trabajo, donde ella misma el la compositora de los temas.

Incluye las nuevas versiones de los que muchos han asegurado han sido dentro de sus éxitos, los 3 mejores temas de su carrera. YO NO TE PIDO LA LUNA, DE MI ENAMORATE Y QUIERO AMANECER CON ALGUIEN.

Hoy sus fans tienen la oportunidad de tener en casa el MEJOR disco de Daniela.
