About the Artist
Biography: Name: Vernon C. Smith (Rujatti) Age: 27 Hometown: Amarillo, Texas Label: Pyrophonic

Born November 22, 1973 Rujatti has been working hard since 1989. He began his carrier with Maz Kunfuzun, an Amarillo based rap group in 1991. After four years with the group, Rujatti left MK and hip-hop for six years. Instead of rap he opted to settle down and start a family. He became a police officer for his home town, but the bug for beats and rhymes soon returned. Tired of the rigmarole of demo shopping, Rujatti joined forces with Robert Dodich. The two opened Pyrophonic Records in September of 2000. "Drop Dead Gorgeous" is his first debut, and his first effort since 1994. "I had to really dust off the cobwebs. After 806, everything started to come back to me", says Rujatti. "There are three things I've always wanted to be, a dad, a cop, and a rapper. Two out of three ain't bad, but damn I want it all".

Product Description

An aspiring young artist from the panhandle of Texas was searching for a way to break into the professional world of music but discovered there were few resources in his area.

Rujatti's debut album is there first project togheter. Drop dead serious, drop dead real, drop dead hardcore, and simply Drop Dead Gorgeous.

5 out of 5 stars Buy it, you won't be sorry.......2007-06-27

Love this CD. You can play it all the way through, but I'd recommend fast-forwarding after the last song because there is another song hidden.

Can't really say the band is innovative but if you like hardcore/screamo/whatevercore pick this up. Keyboards are taking over the scene and you'll find a lot of bands going this route.

5 out of 5 stars Pretty Awesome.......2007-03-08

I listened to only a couple of GDD's songs on the internet, and I thought they were amazing. I had to have the cd right away, so I ordered it, and haven't stop listening to it since I got it. Great screaming, and instrument parts are very well mixed. I recommend cranking up the bass to get the feel of all the raging double bass drum.

3 out of 5 stars Some okay scene-music i ended up really likeing........2007-03-04

I found out about 'Drop Dead, Gorgous' from one of my friends on myspace. The song of theirs called "Daniel, wheres the boat?" was her current song at the time, and it sounded strangly interesting to me.
No one might even understand this but me, but the singer sounded to me like a little kid who was sincerly angry, and screamed like a baby crying its head off. Regardless of how comical that might sound, it didnt totally turn me off. Something about it just made me interested. Another thing that it reminded me of is that for some strange reason i kept thinking it sounded like it belonged on some anime movie soundtrack or something.

Anyways...i found out theres some decent piano playing in segments of some of the songs.
I think that what finally hooked me in a way, to want to take the risk and buy the cd. I liked how they use piano sound becouse it gives their sound a little bit of depth.

The guitar riffs have some meloncholic/tragic sound to them, in some of the songs. i could describe it as a sound that has some'dark despair',without sounding too dramatic. But its nothing complex or vastly deep. Those sounding guitar riffs are brief and repetative, but i bring it up becouse they sorta hit a chord with me, emotionally, and i didnt expect that. But that was VERY SLIGHT.

Besides being kinda impressed with that, when i heard the first song "Dressed For Friend Requests"...when the lead singer sings the lyrics....
"...We're going nowhere fast" ...
That part gave me genuine chills, it actually had a bit of a power to it that gave me an emotional response. Nothing major, but i was like "...gosh"

It wasnt bad. And one thing i liked about most of the songs is that they are short. Its easier for me to listen to this kinda music when its about 2 minutes or so, a song.

So i enjoyed this cd...and considering its their first full length album, i think they did a decent job. I liked it, for real.

A lot of bands have potential, like these kinds. But i hope perhaps they do great things in the future.

Next time ,i would like to hear more complex and deeper piano arrangments.
And more genuine dark despret emotions conveyed in the singers choruses and also the guitar work. If they can make a handfull of very memorable songs, that would be just great.

This is one of the rare times i go and get a album like this, and take a risk with my hard earned money....but i actually like this album, "In Vogue", so it was money well spent. Though its nothing life changing lol, Im real glad i bought this album.

5 out of 5 stars Absolutley Amazing.......2006-07-31

Literally, there isn't much more to say about it. Although, yes, these guys are a big part of the "Fashioncore" scene that is very highlited these days, they are still amazing.

5 out of 5 stars One or Five?.......2006-07-17

Before reviewing this album I was stuck between one of two different possible ratings. There was five stars, and then there was one. Both ratings are feasable, and if you are looking for a solid review, every single on posted here is accurate.

Drop Dead, Gorgeous are recycled hash, and just about the most intense thing I've ever heard at the same time. Frankly, the more broadened your music base is, the more you'll enjoy this band. Although originality is always a factor at this day in age, being able to toss in a CD with some of the most rivetting (although repetative) breakdowns just feels right. I've been consistently enjoying this album for months on end, not because it speaks to me or any of that nonsense, but because it's blatantly amazing in its own way. The scream has to be one of my favourites throughout the genre (so I suppose you can disregard the "constipated baby" comment).

Each track has only a tinge of differentiation between the next, although every time you hear a breakdown in one of the tracks, you'll be able to depict the difference no matter how generic they appear to one another.

My personal favourite tracks (top 3, in order from best to worst) are as follows:

-Well, I never
-Marietta
-In Vogue

The top two can be switched depending on my mood.

All in all? If you like tons of types of music, and there comes a day when there's just nothing with enough energy that's really doing you any good, throw in "In Vogue" by Drop Dead, Gorgeous and just enjoy the bloody CD.

5 out of 5 stars Drop Dead Gorgeous Soundtrack does NOT Drop Dead!.......2001-07-21

This is a review for the Drop Dead Gorgeous soundtrack. This movie, along with the soundtrack, came out in 1999. I loved the movie and when watching it, there were lots of scenes where I was like " This is a really cool song! " Little did I know, 2 years later on July 17th 2001, the soundtrack would be mine!

[....]

On the the CD: There are 23 tracks, 8 of which are just clips from 9-21 seconds long. That means there are 15 " real " tracks.

I bought this for the song " Pressure Man " by The Feelers, Track 6, 4:30. This song is absolutely BRILLIANT. It is the song used when Kirsten Dunst is performing during the pageant, tap dancing. It has the best beat, good lyrics, and it will motivate you.

I wanted the song when Kirsten Dunst was dancing down the street ... a 10-20 second scene, and I didn't think it was on this. But it is! Number 20. Devils Triangle performed by Primitive Radio Gods, 2:06.

It's not over yet. Oh my. I listen to the WHOLE ALBUM, like right now writing this review, Im listening to Pressure Man. Number One by Lifeboy, Track 2, 2:57 is great, too. As well as She by Sunday Suit, track 3, 2:50, Lost Picasso by Hot Sauce Johnson, track 13, 3:13, and the Original Score RULES. It seems like such a new age song and so many instruments. It is track 18, 2:36, and composed by Mark Mothersbaugh.

Anyways, I hope I have helped you guys out there who want more info about the album. [Others]really only say how good Number One by Lifeboy is, and thats it. There is SO much more to this album, you can just fall asleep to this loving every song.

Thanks for reading! -Alex S.

PS: Listen to track 23, Last Laugh. It's 21 seconds long and a clip from the movie where one of the actresses, the one who's brother is Peter, says to the judges " You Know, the retards pants are open. " She starts lauhging on and on and snorting. IT WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH! I just keep listening to it! Hysterical!

Bye!

5 out of 5 stars Not all good, but the ones that are are *excellent*.......2000-09-29

I've watched this movie quite a few times, and was always thinking of buying the soundtrack. Now, I don't like all the songs, but the ones that are on there that I like make it worth buying, because you can't get them anywhere else! The best, in my opinion: Girl That's Hip (Tim Carroll), Young American (Everything), She (Sunday Suit), and of course, Number One (Lifeboy). Ironically, the song Number One is #2 on the CD (because of a silly clip from the movie). Anyway, those songs are really great and I think it's worth it just for those four.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent!.......2000-03-06

This is an awesome CD, i recomend it really highly! I love the little things inbetween too. GO BUY IT! KIRSTEN RULES!

4 out of 5 stars Sunday Suit blew me AWAY!.......2000-01-12

Hey, what can i say...where is sunday suit? Why is SIRE records just sitting on them? Radio friendly 3 minute pop tune. Absolutely gorgeous and you can preview the track! (#3)

3 out of 5 stars Joan Jett makes this CD.......1999-08-14

Joan's cover of "Love is All Around" isn't as good as Husker Du's or Swagger's but it's pretty great nonetheless and is pretty much the only thing that makes the soundtrack worth buying.

5 out of 5 stars And now a Review from someone who has heard the Album.......2006-02-20

I'm furious the first person didn't even actually put any information about the album, which leads me to doubt the reviwer even heard it.

Out of the gate Drop Dead Gorgeous charges with a driving guitar lines and vocals. The first track (so far my favorite) makes you wish that you were at one of their live shows thrashing about in a bit that they no doubtly create. The intensity caries through the album up until the final second of the last song, 12 minutes later.

The only downside to this album (as JUST stated) is that the album is 12 minutes long. However, the quality of the music makes up for the lack of length. Once this band produces a full length, it will be amazing.

This album is for fans of Norma Jean, Botch, As Cities Burn, Circle Takes the Square, Every Time I die, Poison the Well, etc. This band not once brushes the generes that would be lumped with Dashboard Confessional and various spin offs. Drop Dead Gorgeous is an EP full of hardcore first swinging music.

1 out of 5 stars Ballsacks 'R Us.......2006-02-09

Please do not purchase this album. After all, the sticker on the front that Rise Records chose to include reads "the break-up album of the year." Come on, Dashboard Confessional and New Found Glory seem to have already gained that title.

If you're an idiot, you think emo is still an actual adjective, you are a guy that wears the tightest pants on the planet, you sit on MySpace all the time and take pictures of yourself, you call yourself "scene," or you like bands that are sponsored by hair salons, then by all means, feel free to pick up this monstrosity.

    Album Description

    Drop Dead, Gorgeous are an intense, screamy post-hardcore band hailing from Denver, Colorado whose eldest member clocks in at the ripe age of 21. The band has been together for two+ years, and are catching on like wildfire due to their unique sound. Lots of bands are playing music that's heavier than a slab of granite, but Drop Dead, Gorgeous like to keep things interesting and unpredictable, thanks to their use of keyboards and pianos, which give their album plenty of rich dynamics. The album is dissonant, but melodies are omnipresent. The keyboards set DD,G apart from the oversaturated, overcrowded, dime-a-dozen pack. Their indie LP on Rise Records has sold over 30,000 since its release in May 2006.

    5 out of 5 stars Glampire Is Sound original.......2002-12-29

    What can I say but Galmpire...Glampire is sooooooooo original and very very underlooked by the mainstream record companys. To the big record Co's you are all crazy for passing this band by, but they have made it without you all anyway so smell on that one. The sound is so smooth and the vocals are killer, its hard to compair Glampire to another band for they are a sound all of there own. So buy buy buy and did i mention buy there cd's? Play them loud so others can hear it help spread the awesome sound / group of the Glampire.

    5 out of 5 stars AMAZING ALBUM.......2002-07-30

    This is definitly a great choice for the person who loves creative music, well written verses and instrumental sounds that you will not tire of. This cd will be a #1 choice of mine for years to come. Glampire sure knows how to hit you in the heart and soul and his songs make you wonder if he is reading your mind.
