Q: Amazing music from an amazing band! . Every track on this album is a standout.  An instant classic from a classic band.  The boys have never rocked harder, sang better, and grooved groovier.  I can't get this CD out of player.  I can't get the hooks out of my mind- I go to sleep at night humming one of the tunes, usually the Joseph Williams-sung chorus on "Bottom of Your Soul."  I absolutely loved the guest musicians on this record- James Pankow(Chicago)and Ian Anderson (Jethro Tull) especially.  I don't know if you can Call Steve Porcaro a "guest-musician," especially with artistic work with the overall sonic "canvas" and cool timbres he is able to evoke.  He is a genius. Why these guys can't get any radio airplay in the States anymore is beyond me.  They are so much better than all of the crap that comes out on the radio nowadays. I hope they tour the US hard for the next couple of years and win over old-fans and new converts.

Q: Save your money!!! . I wish amazon allowed giving "zero" stars to an album.    I bought my first John & Yoko album in 1969 ("Life with the Lions.") I got "ripped off," although I should have know better..  I was smart enough not to buy "Two Virgins" because of the bad reviews.  I bought "Life with the Lions" without reading any reviews, but I was young, naive, and a big Lennon fan.  Oh well!    The John & Yoko albums released before the breakup of the Beatles were all pretty much the same.  The chief instigator of these albums seems to be Yoko.  Her background in the "avant garde" and "conceptual art" is apparent in these albums.  The basic premise is: take a "concept" and run with it.  Keep running with it for as long as possible.  Let's hear John & Yoko call each other by their first names for a half-hour.  Let's produce feedback and screaming longer than one can normally tolerate.  After all, the big joke is that John Lennon's name is on this album... so even if the "concepts" are questionable and/or idiotic- lots of people will BUY this piece of vinyl because a Beatle has his name on the cover!!!    "The Wedding Album" was the BIGGEST rip-off I ever experienced as a Beatles fan and purchaser of all things Beatle.  When this album came out in 1969 it was priced HIGHER than a regular album because it was a big box!  The graphics for this product HAD to cost more than the recording costs.  The recording part of this project was interminable and amateurish.  Feel like hearing John & Yoko calling each other by their first names for a half hour?  Feel like hearing "home audio" of every inane bit of their "bed-in for peace?"  I sometimes think the most "conceptual" thing John & Yoko could've done with this project would have been giving the customer an EMPTY box!  It probably would've sounded better.      Buying the CD version of "The Wedding Album" seems bizarre.  The product was designed for vinyl and you lose so much graphic presentation in the CD format.  The only blessing in the CD version is the inclusion of three actual SONGS.  However, the three actual songs are Yoko's.  So maybe it's not that big a blessing after all.  All three tunes were B-sides to Plastic Ono Band singles.      I don't recommend buying ANY of John & Yoko's "conceptual" albums.  Do yourself a favor and make one of your own!!

Q: This is a really good CD . I liked the other BRMC albums a lot as well, but I think those had that quality where they were initially catchy and you loved it and thought it was the greatest thing ever, but after a few listens it got kinda tired...  Still good, but you'd think "oh yeah..."    Howl is the opposite.  It was OK the first time I listened to it, and I kinda liked it, but it didnt really dig it's claws into me.  For that reason it didn't get pulled out of the CD wallet all that often.  Then I put it in one day and thought "ya know, this is actually pretty good."   Then I started listening to it some more and thought "man, this is really, really good!"  Guess what?  Now I love it...  This is definitely a creeper CD, as in - it creeps up on you (yeah, that was a stoner analogy.)      I think "weight of the world" is the best song on the CD, but "howl" had really grown on me too - but I don't want to harp on the songs too much, this is an album as a whole.  Bands grow up and change, and I'm glad to see that BRMC has done it, and done it well.  They haven't lost their muse or gotten "softer" just to try something different -- they've grown and changed and their music shows it.  I remember my freshman year in college when Achtung Baby came out and there were people saying stuff like "boycott U2 cuz they're sellouts!" - not realizing that AB would be looked at as probably the most insightful, clever, and musically interesting album of their catalog.  That's what the backlash to Howl reminds me of -- shortsighted and not entirely accurate.      Yeah, people may fear change, and admittedly, some artists try it and look like complete idiots in the process (Chris Gaines, anyone...) but BRMC has actually grown, and if you liked their first 2 CD's I'd say give this one a shot.  It's really good - and I'm proud of 'em for making it.
