Braindead [1993] Dvd ~ Elizabeth Moody
splatter...everywhere, 12 Sep 2007 right then if you dont like splatter and truck loads of gore all over the place avoid this film....if you have a weak stomach or are upset easily aviod this film....if on the other hand you do like the above and you havent seen this film then buy it right now!! this film has got enough gore to fuel 30 hostels!!!!! and in a pleasant change its actually very,very good!!! a cracking script with some wicked one liners and fantastic direction by the mighty peter jackson. if you are only aware of peter jackson from the rings films then step very carefully with checking this out as it is quite a change of pace and style!! but as out and out splatterfests go this is easily one of the best ever made! death metal

				Regular Urban Survivors Terrorvision
perfect, 6 Sep 2007 this is one of the best albums released in the 90's, hell its probably one of my fave albums of all time. because there isnt a single bad song on this album....nope nothing not a single part out of place. everything is perfect. the songs are fantastic pop rock with a knowing nod to their more metallic roots. it had a big album to compare to and i think it does an exceptional job of equalling and surpassing its predecessor. plus you gotta love the bond theme running through to whole just to remind you that we arent to take it too seriously!!! death metal
				Good to Go Terrorvision
and out with a bang, 6 Sep 2007 so then the final studio album from surely bradfords favourite sons of rock. is it any good? well i think a resounding yes is the answer. all the boxes are ticked for a cracking TV album....foolish artwork? yes silly song titles? yes(goldmine jamjar anyone?) and the best bit.....amazingly catchy headbangy,dancy,jump around and singalong out loud songs? oh hell yes!!!! the songs veer from silly and bouncy(d'ya wanna go faster,alone and fists of fury) through to indiesque pop rock(sometimes id like to kill her and unhappy millionaire) and they even through in a nice slow one too(from out of nothing). throughout the songs are great,the riffs are great and very catchy and tony does only what tony wright can do!!!!!! i love this album and i think it is only pipped to the top spot by the mighty regular urban survivors as TV's best work. well worth chucking a couple of bucks at!! death metal
				Legion of Flames Zimmers Hole
utter nonsense, 29 Aug 2007 this album is very,very,very,very,very silly. yes it really is that silly and it is a very good thing too! in a nice change away from all the seriousness of metal this an album about how great metal is and how much fun it can be at the same time. featuring members from unit:187 and strapping young lad unsurprisingly the music awesome and with a production from devin townsend the sound is impeccable. what they do so well is take your favourite metal songs and bands and turn them into very funny homages to them. the mighty "evil robots" with its cracking line "napster,napster wheres the cash that ive been after" awesome!!!!!!!!! great riffs that we already know and love twisted into great new forms for us to love again!!!! go get some now i promise you wont be disappointed!! death metal
				Echo Park Feeder
the breaker, 29 Aug 2007 this is the album where feeder went from indie rock also rans to festival headliners!!! the reason....."buck rogers" its that simple.....it is a song that grant had been threatening to write for years....the one that finally snagged the radio and a whole new set of adoring fans with it. yes it is relentlessly simplistic....but the best songs usually are....the trick is making it stay in your head....and that is where this album scores big points...easily the most accessable and the catchiest thing that feeder has released...the songs everywhere have got great guitar melodies and huge choruses. grants lyrics went a bit odd on this album but he still manages to squeeze a few good ones in here and there. the magic of this album is that it managed to combine a fantastic new sounding band with the style of some of the older songs, witness "oxygen" that could have easily sat on polythene and the great quirky pop that is "piece by piece" that feels like a yesterday went too soon track. a cracking little record and the one that brought them to the masses death metal
				Swim: Re-Surfaced Feeder
cracking, 29 Aug 2007 this little mini album is great. the songs a re a;ot simpler than what was to come owning much more to a punky/grunge mish mash. all the pieces are in place for what was to come though....great melodies and catchy hooks all over the place. stereo world will become one of your favourite songs....ever....fact!!! yes they do sound immature in comparison....but well they are old songs written by a band finding their feet....most other bands would still be releasing their demo at this stage in their career but feeder had gottne themselves signed and have done almost all of their growing up in the public eye. i love this album as its very close in style to polythene and alot faster and heavier than what was to come. i would say its essential for the completist but not for the passing fan if you are new to feeder through pushing the senses try the other stuff before this!!! its a million miles away from where they are now death metal
				Comfort in Sound Feeder
5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: the last good one, 29 Aug 2007 here feeder really take the foot off the gas and recorded a mini masterpiece you get the feeling that grant is using music as therapy on this one to recover form the passing of jon lee....the downside being that usually the best music comes from the most negative of feelings. its a shame that it took the death of someone close to bring out such maturity and beautiful songwriting from feeder. the songs on this album are alot slower and quieter than all the previous efforts and is where feeder started to lose some of their core fanbase who felt they were drifting away from their original sound but for me this is an album that they had to make and they fluffed it with the next dismal release. but still the songs on this one are just majestic,towering peices of stadium filling sing along glory. my personal faves being moonshine and the appropriately titled comfort in sound that pretty much sums up the whole album. give it a try its a beautifully tragic masterpiece death metal
				Yesterday Went Too Soon Feeder
good second album, 29 Aug 2007 so then feeder did slow down a little for this one. the overall feel of this album is a little more indie than the slightly noisier sounds of the previous album. the production is a little lighter putting more emphasis on grants fantastic voice and lowerin the guitars in the mix. the songwriting has moved on aswell....drifting to a poppier feel with an even greater emphasis on the melodies. there is still some bite in the band as shown on "amnesia" and "pictures of perfect youth"....but even these faster songs are held together by monster choruses!!!! the real change is in the greater use of atmospherics and the acoustic guitar. the songs are more introverted and reflective than the previous album. i would say that this is a better follow up purchase for later fans than polythene as it is closer in style to what you already like.
