4 out of 5 stars Starts Off Excellent...Ends Okay With Some Dud Melodies.......2006-02-07

Before having bought this album, I had seen the music videos for PINCUSHION, WORLD OF SWIRL, and BREAKAWAY. I loved all three of those songs. So I bought the album, hoping that I would hear more like them. However, it didn't turn out to be all that I hoped for. Here's what I can say:

PINCUSHION--Great rock song, with some very cool drum beats that compliment the guitar sound coming with them. Very good tune, fantastic song. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

BREAKAWAY--This song is slow rock, but I find it very meaningful, and the singing has very strong emotion in it. However, the guitar solos sounded better in the music video than in the actual song. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

WORLD OF SWIRL--I would say that this addictive song ties with BREAKAWAY for best on the album. Once again, Dusty Hill proves his great taste in what songs he chooses to sing. Excellent song. Featuring vocals by Dusty Hill, Billy Gibbons, and Frank Beard.

FUZZBOX VOODOO--The singing featured in this song isn't quite like anything you've heard from ZZ Top yet. I would probably consider it bad if it didn't work so well with the tune. The tune saves it, and transforms the final product into a very good song. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

GIRL IN A T-SHIRT--The worst song yet on the album. This time, the singing doesn't blend with the tune, the tune isn't that great, the guitar sound is cracking, and there's an odd ringing noise in the background the whole time. One song definately worth skipping. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, and Frank Beard.

ANTENNA HEAD--This song starts out pretty good, but ends up going on too long with some extremely unnecessarilly long guitar solos. Would be a very good song if the patterns in the beginning of the song were kept throughout the whole song. Featuring vocals by Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons.

PCH--This song is quite good, even though I haven't listened to it in a while. It starts out sounding a bit dull, but once you've gotten to the chorus, you'll really start to enjoy the song. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

CHERRY RED--This song is a bit better than GIRL IN A T-SHIRT, but nothing besides that. I can't say what exactly makes it so, but I certainly found myself not enjoying it last time I listened to it. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

COVER YOUR RIG--This song is along the same lines as BREAKAWAY, but I find it way too long. Also, the guitar solos in this song just don't have the same meaningfullness that BREAKAWAY does, nor do the singing or lyrics. But it's still an okay song. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill.

LIZARD LIFE--This is also a pretty long song, but this time it's rock, so I don't mind. Overall, it's pretty good. Not amazing, but a good choice of song to listen to whenever you feel like it. Featuring vocals by Billy Gibbons, Dusty Hill, and Frank Beard.

DEAL GOIN' DOWN--The cheerful entry to this song would make one almost classify this song as pop music. But as soon as Dusty Hill's rough voice enters the song, it turns into ZZ Top rock. Good lyrics and enunciation. Featuring vocals by Dusty Hill and Billy Gibbons.

5 out of 5 stars A Must for ZZ Top fans.......2004-08-25

All I can say is that it is sold out, unavailable, where ever you try to find it. Even on the ZZ Top website. Some reviewers may say it is just so-so, old hat...but fans say otherwise.

5 out of 5 stars This is one of my favorite albums by ZZ Top.......2004-05-14

Antenna has to be one of ZZ Tops, top five albums of all time and its one of my personal favorites. Billy Gibbons guitar is so amazing here, its better then usual. The songs are great in the ZZ Top fashion, and its not all 80's tchno and MTV friendly crap either, its just good old American rock and roll.

Antenna has some powerful songs to work with. 'Antenna Head' being the best song on the album, its got a killer solo great feel and an all around great sound everything just fits together really well. It has to be one of the bands all time best songs, or at least in my openion anyways. 'Cherry Red' is annother great song, its one of the better tracks. Its has a really cool groove to it. Really nice. 'Pincushion' is a great song as well, and one of the best opening tracks I have ever heard. 'FuzzBox Voodoo' is a cool song and as you might have guessed Billy Gibbons uses a lot of FuzzBox in his guitar playing. The album ends with 'Deal Goin Down' and all I have to say is that is the perfect song to end the album.

All the other songs on the album are great, well they are better then great but those are the songs you will be listening to over and over and ovevr again. Pick up this awsome album!

4 out of 5 stars Well............2004-04-30

I must say that Antenna is growing on me, but I also
must say that...of all ZZ Top albums I've heard, this
one is the weakest. Pincushion is cool, but I prefer
the Sin-Pusher version on XXX. Antenna Head is fun...
but not in the great category. The CD, in my opinion,
has one fantastic track, and that is the song that could
save your life: Cover Your Rig...an ode to safe sex.
That song is excellent slow blues in the best ZZ tradition.
So I would recommend this CD to ZZ fanatics, just don't have too high hopes for it.

5 out of 5 stars Very Good album.......2003-12-03

5 out of 5 stars Not new, but not a re-issue.......2005-01-28

Every rock guitarist on the planet should own this cd - along with EVERY release by Be Bop Deluxe, for that matter. With the possible exception of Drastic Plastic, every single one of Be Bop Deluxe's studio albums is a 5-star masterpiece, as is this "live in the studio" release. How groups like Fleetwood Mac and Boston sold millions of albums in the 70's while fabulous groups like Be Bop Deluxe and The Sensational Alex Harvey Band went virtually unnoticed will always be a mystery to me. This is simply some of the classiest rock guitar music ever. YESMAN is not quite correct in calling this a re-issue of Radioland, however. Read this from Bill Nelson's own website - NOTE: This is NOT a new release of previously unheard performances, neither is it a true re-issue. Hux purchased the rights to the tapes used for the Radioland BBC Radio 1 Live In Concert CD, which was released in 1994 and has been out of print for several years. The general consensus about Radioland is that the sound quality was inferior and not worth the money. Tremulous Antenna uses the same master tapes, but the sound has been VASTLY IMPROVED! All of the complaints about Radioland are addressed in this release. Give it a listen and you'll be happily surprised.


4 out of 5 stars Tremulous Antenna delivers!.......2004-09-17

In many ways, this is probably a better live album than the more commercially successful "Live in the Air Age". This recording covers the breadth of BBD, from modest beginnings (Axe Victim) to the much lamented demise after "Drastic Plastic". The material from "Plastic" is especially welcome, since it is not repeated in any other live recording. "Superenigmatix", while not an especially engaging piece, is nonetheless important in showing how Bill Nelson was drifting away from BBD and experimenting with Punk sensibilities. "Islands of the Dead" is dead-on vintage BBD and "Panic in the World" showed us all that Bill Nelson could rock as hard as anyone (try getting this hook out of your head!). The recording is raw and unpolished, including a minor Bill Nelson flub at the beginning of "Life in the Air Age". Yet this quality is oddly endearing and utterly listenable. It is also curious to note that this live version of "Sister Seagull" is missing that wonderful guitar riff that made this a trademark BBD tune. The version on "Tramcar to Tomorrow" is much more engaging. The rest of the material is covered for the most part on on "Live in the Air Age", but how could you get tired of classic BBD? After all, each live performance contains unique nuances that are wonderful to explore and compare to that of other recordings. If you love Be Bop Deluxe, you will not be disappointed. Even if you are not a fan, the brilliant songwriting, unforgettable hooks and searing guitar will leave you wanting more. Happy listening!

5 out of 5 stars Tremulous Antenna Delivers Be-Bop Deluxe First Rate.......2003-01-09

I could compare my experience to a perceived time-travel with all the bells and whistles. I had the opportunity to see Be-Bop Deluxe in Phoenix,1977 Sunburst Finish album. The live performance was unlike any I've experienced until this came along. I had forgotten my complete impression and it all came back. Whether or not you've seen them live, you will be moved by the incredible precision. This is studio work, on tour. Moreover, this band was on a time-travel through the years and is in a good "chrono-position" today. I am also pleased beyond any expectation with the sound quality in these almost-forgotten BBC live recordings. As a Bill Nelson Futurama jamma', I feel most qualified to share my opinion and further, to have all but one or two releases from pre-post BBD, this is a jewel.

    Album Description

    "2005's Best Noise Pop Discovery. Kids, here is the group you've been waiting for." -- SF WEEKLY

    San Francisco-based supergroup Still Flyin' was assembled in late 2004 by Sean Rawls. What began as a lighthearted nod to good times soon became a juggernaut that no one in the band expected, and before long the group had become a San Francisco phenomenon. Of course, it doesn't hurt that the band counts members of Track Star, Aislers Set, Ladybug Transistor, Love Is All, Maserati, and Red Pony Clock amongst it's rotating collective. Za Cloud is the second EP in a thematic series that started with Time Wrinkle, and like the first it's filled with indie-pop and twee jams gone rocksteady.

    The fourth album from Cave In finds the Massachusetts-based hardcore innovators streaking away from their former orbit at fantastic speed. The band's earlier albums marked them out as a kind of psychedelic Slayer. Antenna is a leap into a newly expansive, effects-laden sound that borrows from acts as alien to the hardcore spirit as Radiohead and Chicago post-rock champions Tortoise. Frontman Stephen Brodsky's high, clear voice rides above the gigantic sheets of sound thrown out on the feedback-strewn "Stained Silver" and "Breath of Water." The album's epic centerpiece is "Seafrost"--a nine-minute piece with distorted, lurking bass lines, a prog-influence arrangement, and a final three-minute descent into a beautiful, celestial wash of sound. A truly remarkable progression, and a great album to boot--Antenna is the work of a band that's constantly moving forward. --Louis Pattison

    5 out of 5 stars Don't pass this one by!!!.......2006-11-29

    This is one of those CDs where, every time I pop it in, I get almost immediately ANGRY that this band is not HUGE, while so many other, thoroughly undeserving bands are! There are some OUTSTANGING songs on here, which alone are worth the price of admission: Beautiful Son, Joy Opposites, and Youth Overrided come immediately to mind as nothing short of stunning. But in it's entirety, it's just a well-put-together, well written, well produced batch of songs from a very talented band. It doesn't seem like they stayed on a major label after this one, but that's a shame, becuase they SO deserve to be heard! Buy this!!

    1 out of 5 stars WHAT THE HECK??.......2006-09-16

    This CD has poor production quality, boring song construction, waaaay too repetitive on almost every song. Even the alt-radio song "Inspire" is mediocre at best. This CD sounds like a bunch of 20 somethings goofing around in a basement rather than playing music people would pay to hear. I did not hear anything heavy-metal-ish about this album, nor did I hear any elements of progressive-rock. I totally don't get why everybody loves this album...except me.

    5 out of 5 stars One of my favorite all-time albums.......2006-08-02

    WHen I was a teenager (Jr. High and High School-ish), I loved music. Every single day I came home and listened to the same basic rotation of albums; Nirvana "Nevermind," Smashing Pumpkins "Siamese Dream," Radiohead "The Bends," Toad the Wet Sprocket "Dulcinea," etc. 20 CDs was all I needed. Age has made me somewhat jaded; I now own around 500 albums and very, very few give me the same rush I used to feel when listening to the same album over and over. In 2003, from virtually out of nowhere, Cave In's "Antenna" had that extremely rare mix of melodic, edgy rock that has kept me listening fairly regularly for 3 years straight.

    Hardcore fans hate this record, because it sounds commercial, though it never really was. Even the catchier tunes (the album's 3 singles: Inspire, Anchor, Penny Racer) were a bit too obtuse for regular radio play. A few fans even use the dreaded words "sell out." Me, I don't care about any of that. I just like good music, which "Antenna" has in spades. Of course, considering Cave In's metal background, this album is quite surprising, even if you followed the band's last couple of albums (the brilliant "Jupiter" and the fantastic "Tides of Tomorrow") began the band's voyage into quasi-commercialism.

    As for the album itself, "Antenna" does not make a single misstep. Not one. All 12 songs are rediculously well-written, guitar crunching, Thom Yorke-esque choir boy vocals (Oops! There's that comparison again), prog, punk, pop, perfect collection of songs. "Lost in the Air" is simply gorgeous. "Stained Silver" has enough fist-pumping, epinepherine-rushing power to cause a heart attack. And the Brit-poppy ballad "Beautiful Son" and the lengthy prog-suite "Seafrost" are two of the best back-to-back tracks ever released on album format. Though I'm admittedly biased, this is in my top 25 albums of all-time. The album sits surprisingly well next to the lofty company of bands like Radiohead, Wilco, My Morning Jacket, etc. The best album released in 2003.

    Overall: 10 out of 10.

    5 out of 5 stars Underrated.......2006-03-03

    I highly recommend this for anyone burnt out on all the emo/punk/pop/core/whatever clone bands out there, this will restore your faith in rock and roll.
    Magnetic and at once grandiose and unassuming, Cave In dream and wander the cosmic planes w/a somewhat unique clarity and cogniscant in-the-moment presence of being that suggests a centeredness and restraint which is startling.
    Lyrically, they are simple and poignant without being cheesy or preachy; rather, their simple poetry works in inconspicuous synergy with the music.
    Sonically and verbally, Cave In masterfully create an atmosphere which draws the listener into a dreamworld, yet they do it with a tempered and tactful restraint that actually heightens the crest and momentum of it's emotional relevance. Focusedly and unflinchingly ethereal and dreamy, while un-selfconcious.

    I know this all sounds pompous and pretentious on paper, but it's true. This is a great album.

    3 out of 5 stars It's no Jupiter........2006-02-03

    With "Until Your Heart Stops", Cave In created one of the best metal experiences one can hope for. With "Jupiter", they changed their style completely, but still created something even more amazing. It was clear at this point they were a band to be reckoned with. Now, following up these two mammoth releases was no mean feat to begin with, but despite that, I was still pretty disappointed with this album.

    Stylistically, it more or less continues with the more melodic style of "Jupiter", but unfortunately it lacks the creative and unpredictable songwriting that made that album so great. This one is mostly just full of banal, lackluster songs, many of which are highly repititious, or largely forgettable. Now, there are a few decent tracks here, such as "Stained Silver", "Anchor", Inspire", and "Beautiful Son", but then you have songs like the extremely long-winded "Seafrost", the startlingly dry "Breath of Water", and the painfully repititious "Lost in the Air". The musicianship is still decent (particularly the drumming), but without good songwriting, what's the point? Even Steve's vocals, which are usually amazing, are very often dry and uninspired.

    Believe me, I take no pleasure whatsover in being so critical of this album. I'm not putting it down for being "commercial" (whether or not something is commercial is of no concern to me whatsoever), and I'm certainly not opposed to a change in direction (otherwise I wouldn't have liked "Jupiter" either). I just felt this album was disappointingly weak, especially for a band who is obviously capable of much much more. I really hope they turn it around for the next album. I don't really recommend this one, unless you're a completist, and feel like you must have every single thing in their catalogue. I mean, it's not horrible by any means, but otherwise, go for "Jupiter" instead.

    Maybe is not his best work, because for me Poison and Rush are amazing albums, but this is an example of good tracks, always mellancollic, with a acid sense of humor, only comprehensible for the european audience. There are ballads and dance songs "très bien chantées". A hope see him very soon in barcelona in concert!!

    1 out of 5 stars Warning: this CD is a mental health hazard.......2005-09-27

    Wow, I just bought this album and I'm really surprised with my strong reactions to it .... I really think I hate it ... a lot. I first recently bought Jay-Jay's 'Tattoo' CD and really enjoy it and can sincerely recommend it, but with this one I feel like I've been somehow tricked into buying a bad joke. It's almost 'something' but it's grip is incredibly tenuous and it threatens to slide into the giant abyss of utter tedious and monotonous crap ... the entire way through the CD. I can appreciate the obscure and difficult to define genre that Jay-Jay Johanson inhabits but really this one is pushing it. It reminds me of what i hated about the early eighties. Listen well to someone else's copy before you put out for this one ... you might get more satisfaction buying your own crappy casio keyboard. I think you need to have spent a really severe Swedish winter snowed in with no sensory stimulation for six months to be inspired by this one. Yeah, I'm listening to it again and it's just making me feel angry and irritable.I really hope I regret writing this harsh review, but at this point I really don't think I could get through a third play of this CD without smashing it to smithereens and using the razor sharp little shards to slash my wrists.

    5 out of 5 stars Re-invented.......2004-01-31

    With every new release of a Jay-Jay album, comes an entirely new sound. Obviously moving more into an electronic, techno sound, many of the melodies feel like they could be layed out onto the beats and moods of the last album. Replace those old dusty drums and the scratchy vinyl hiss from "Poison" with a cleaner electronic beat, and you've got "Antenna". An additional dash of jay jay flavor on top, makes this album well worth the purchase.

    Album Description

    This CD contains the first two LPs recorded by Billy Price and the Keystone Rhythm Band in 1979 and 1981 respectively.

    4 out of 5 stars Price Is Right.......2002-05-28

    Being a native of Pittsburgh, I'm fond of local artists, but Billy outshines them all. I lost my original copy from 1989, and I finally bought a new copy last year. Even after 12 years, it still stirs my soul to listen to the resonating tones of Billy Price and the Keystone Rhythm Band...

    4 out of 5 stars Billy is the real thing.......2000-05-01

    Billy is like minor league baseball - no big saleries - no overpriced seats - no egotists !

    Billy plays because he loves what he does - it shows in every song he sings - crys - does.

    Go see him if you can ?

    4 out of 5 stars Thrilled To See 1979's 'Is It Over' on CD.......2000-03-02

    "Is It Over" covers soul tracks you may or may not have ever heard before. Billy Price is so true to the spirit of the genre, and so incapable of perfunctory delivery, that you listen to these cuts a few times and you feel like you don't need to go hunting for the "Ur" version. "They Found Me Guilty" is not as satisfying; the first nine tracks earn the four stars I'm giving.

    To Clarify...this album was first released in 1983 NOT 1993 Maybe the CD version first hit the stores in 1993, but the album is much older...and anyone living in Philadelphia that summer knows that Amore was all over the radio. MMR supported this band like no body's business...and rightfully so. Although later Hooters albums like Nervous Night (their big lable debut)and One Way Home had newer versions of many of the songs on Amore, in my opinion they pale in comparison. Amore just drips with the raw talent and energy that only a band on the "verge" can muster. Bazillian and Hyman knew they had something special going and they held nothing back in recording Amore. With John Lilly on lead guitar and Rob Miller on base, along with David U on drums, this was a great line-up. Definitely the heavy weight champ of the Philly bands around in the 80s, the Hooters, along with Robert Hazard, The A's, Beru Revue, Jelly Roll and a host of other bands made this a special time to turn on the radio. Now, if they could only release the original 45 versions of Fighting on the Same Side and All You Zombies. This pressing of Amore does contain Man in the Street...which if I am correct was the flipside to the Fightin on the Same Side 45.

    Dig around, a find this CD. One of the best albums of the 80s...even if it was only released in and around Philly.

    5 out of 5 stars Enchanted, powerful, throbbing noise.......2007-01-29

    With little lyrical distraction, and a Calla / Sonic Youth -like, atmospheric, instrumental bent, the Telescopes leave behind their often shoegaze stylings reminiscent of early My Bloody Valentine, and give us some ambient, often bass driven, band noise. These could be Sonic Youth extended endings outtakes. All in all, a moody soundtrack, perhaps good for some Chris Hinton style animation.

      Album Description

      The Wolfkings exist to throw fire in the face of anyone who believes that the eloquence and mystical nature of music has been lost. Like glimpses of hazy days and memories half-remembered and half-imagined, the songs of The Wolfkings offer up a collective window in which to view the less tangible aspects of life. The best of youth spent indoors, schooling himself in the books of the Age of Anxiety and the films of the Chamber Cinema, Michael Talbott emerged through blankets of snow and set about building a house of finery from the ground up. Together, Talbott and The Wolfkings make music that wouldn't sound out of place alongside such varied luminaries as Richard & Linda Thompson, latter-day Tindersticks, Meddle-era Pink Floyd, Beck's Sea Change, or early Leonard Cohen - essentially, anywhere music has been transformed from the urbane to the transcendental. But take a deep breath before you dive headfirst into this brambly briar, and beware of the surrounding teeth, because they can indeed bite - beware, for The Wolfkings ride tonight!

        Album Description

        "Sugar & Gold, a San Francisco combo made up of ex-members of Dura-Delinquent, sound perfectly at home slipped in beside selections by Call and Response and a tranquilized Tower of Power." -- SF BAY GUARDIAN

        Sugar & Gold take classic harmony-based songwriting and yacht rock and kick them into the twenty-first century with a healthy dose of Rick James and Young Americans-era David Bowie. With staccato guitar licks, a heavy bottom groove, and sultry female backing vocals, S&G put on a dynamic live show that never fails to get even the most uptight teasers out on the dance floor. Like contemporaries Scissor Sisters and Phoenix, Sugar & Gold reap the benefits of the last three decades in electronic and soul music, blending sampled beats, live drums, and an array of classic funk and electro instrumentation. With the little money they could scrape together, the members bought a van instead of a producer, toured the US, and ended up recording everywhere along the way--from lofts and basements in New York to living rooms and small studios in Los Angeles. The result is Crème, their eleven-song debut, which reflects the moods and characters of many neighborhoods across the country, blending them all into a harmonious whole by finding the common denominator. In a country that has been continually polarized by politics and economics, S&G finds that music is still the language of the soul and the greatest uniting force.
