Allison and Catherine Pierce are from Alabama, they're sisters, they're rather attractive, one of them is supposedly (as of this writing) dating someone from the Strokes, and as kids they were both "accomplished" ballerinas. Together they make some pretty fine, artsy pop with provocative lyrics vaguely in the vein of Regina Spektor. Thirteen Tales is the first album the duo has made with their own say-so; their earlier records were pleasant if innocuous, slicked-up folk. There's a dramatic flair to their country-inflected orchestral New Wave folk-pop. With its doubled-up and contemporary-sounding pop vocal style, the macabre "Secrets" sounds like the soundtrack to a Tim Burton movie with words written by Dame Darcy, as sung by half the members of the Pussycat Dolls. If anything, they're a little too ambitious on their third album. With each track assigned its own stylistic variation (however slight), the album is scattered as a whole. But this is definitely a super entertaining duo, one to watch out for. --Mike McGonigal

Thirteen tales of love and revenge.......2007-07-15

I am a new fan of The Pierces, a sister act. I have read a lot of good reviews about the group The Pierces which got my attention. I was curious to hear their music. I recently picked up their latest cd THIRTEEN TALES OF LOVE AND REVENGE. I am absolutely hooked. The music is catchy and a lot of fun to listen too. I guess I would describe their music as indie pop. The lyrics are as quirky and playful as their music is. The group uses a lot of interesting instruments on through out the album like the glockenspiel, Hawaiian lap steel, slide whistle, sitar, and autoharp which you wouldn't hear on your typical pop album. THIRTEEN TALES OF LOVE AND REVENGE is anything but your typical pop album. The lyrics are laced with bitterness and anger over relationships that went sour. The sisters' vocals reminds me a bit of Gwen Stefani (like on "Lights Up"), Alanis Morrisette, and Fiona Apple but for the most part they have their own style of singing. I usually am not fond of when music critics fawn over certain artists because they tend to not live up to their hype but this is not the case with The Pierces. The critics were spot on with this talented duo.

Perfect suggestion by amazon.com.......2007-05-23

I had never heard of the Pierces before and came across this album on amazon.com, it was listed as a suggestion for me based on my previous likes and purchases. I have to say, what a great way to find out about them! It fits my eclectic taste perfectly, it is sometimes sweet, has tongue-in-cheek humor and conveys many different moods. These girls are amazing, I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

Awesome CD.......2007-05-13

Awesome CD! Highly recommended! And if it weren't for Amazon, I wouldn't have it because it's not available in stores in my area.

Great CD.......2007-05-13

Love this. I listen to it all the time. I heard about it from a magazine and bought it on a whim.

Shockingly good!.......2007-05-09

The newest album of The Pierces called "Thirteen Tales of Love and Revenge" is chocolat for the ears! Their lyrics are funny, bold and kinky in an innocent-school-girl kind of way. It is like the novel "Special Topics in Calamity Physics" by Marisha Pessl put into music! Shockingly good!

King Diamond's 1987 concept album, Abigail, is generally considered to be King Diamond's most significant release. Though 15 years have lapsed between its release and its sequel's appearance, it appears not that much has changed. Abigail II: The Revenge, features the kind of heavy yet catchy melodies, intriguing tempo changes, and grinding riffs that mark much of the band's catalog, with creepy mood music and Diamond's notorious shrieks added to the mix to fit the horror theme. The driving "Miriam" twists from chugging riffs into a sweeping melody. The keyboard-driven "Broken Glass" boasts nice goth touches, while "Slippery Stairs" borders on speed metal. At times, gestures toward advancing the plot undermine the music, and Diamond's demonic-growl-to-falsetto range remains an acquired taste, but musically the band has never sounded stronger. --Gail Flug

Album Description

The story continues with the doomed saga of the family La Fey, a cold-blooded tale of revenge from the master storyteller. Metal Blade Records. 2002.

king diamond delivers again.......2007-03-31

well the king delivers again on abaigal 2, not being quiet as good as the first abaigal, then again why make part 2 sound the same as part 1 that wouldn't have made no sense, so i say the king did an excellent job on this album with the lyrics and music, theres only one disappointment with the cd and thats kings high notes, hes not singing much on the high notes like he did on the first abaigal. other than that it's a great album. take no chance just listen to it.

Uninspired music from the King.......2006-11-15

Wow, I cannot believe that so many people have called this a great KD album.....believe me when I say it is not! I am a big KD fan, and love most of his work, except this album. King focuses too much on the lyrics and the story, leaving the music in the background, with no memorable hooks or riffs, throughout the album I feel as if king is reading a book with music supporting him....this is what distinguishes his albums, the music. Abigail and Conspiracy where great because the story supported the music, not the other way around.

Buy this cd at your own risk...I did, and it was a big dissapointment.

While Not As Good As The Original, Abigail 2 Deserves Attention........2006-04-18

There is only one reason why I gave this 4 stars. THe album as a whole is great, but the last 2 or so songs are a bit pointless in some ways.

Ok, this album is a sequel to the amazing Abigail, one of the best albums in metal history. Musically, it's different than the original. If you're expecting the same thing as the first release, then you'll be surprised. This is nothing like Abigail other than the characters in it. You have to take into consideration that the main reason this was release was because so many fans requested it from King, so I think it's only respectful to give it a try. While not a bad album by any means, it is dragged down by a few 'weaker' tracks. This time around, the story is much more detailed than the original. Abigal is back, and it is time to exact her revenge on the person that tried to kill her insider of her mother years ago. The plot constantly unravels before you, showing Abigail as she drifts deeper and deeper into madness from her obsessions of vengeance. A big let down on this album is how 'uninspired some of the lyrics can be. There are a few songs that would better off not being on the album. Musically, there is no disappointment. It's a different approach, lot's of sound effects, keyboards, haunting cries and wicked female laughter in the background. The best song on the album in my opinion is "Slippery Stairs", with amazing solos by both Mike Wead and Andy LaRocque, some of which from Mike Wead sound so fast it's a wonder his strings didn't catch fire as he was recording them. All in all, this album is pretty damn good despite a few 'weak' tracks at the end. Though it could certainly have been better, it could just as easily been worse. Still, it's one of the few solid metal albums to be released in the 2000's that doesn't involve any 'nu-metal' qualities to it. If you're a fan of King Diamond, or just a fan of good metal in general, do yourself a favor and pick this title up.

He Is Still the King! .......2005-07-26

I'll begin with a brief rundown of where I stand. I share the common opinion that 'Abigail,' 'Them,' and 'Conspiracy' are the best. I think the healthy runnerups were 'Spiders' Lullabye' and 'The Graveyard.' For those of you who gave this record low ratings, I'm guessing you were expecting the same magic of 'Abigail.' I'll go so far as to say the 1st 'Abigail' was probably one of the closest things Mr. Diamond did to a perfect record. (Where story and music are concerned) We have to remember though that Mr. Diamond DID NOT originally plan to make this record. (Else it would have been made a lot sooner after the first 'Abigail.') Rather, he did it because so many of his fans wanted it. So, being that Mr. Diamond did it mostly in response to us, we do owe the record a chance. All of that said, onto the subject at hand. Andy La Rocque and Mike Wead may not get the attention that Jim Hendrix, Steve Vai, or Eddie Van Halen get. In my opinion, this is proof that being popular doesn't mean you're better than someone who is more obscure. The return of Hal Patino on bass is most welcome. While one will probably notice a musical difference between this new record and the original 'Abigail,' there is still a notable effort to hold on to the fine qualities of the 80s. (A trait sadly given up by Metallica and others.) King's vocals are top notch as almost always. If his impact of horror was slipping on 'Voodoo,' it more than recovered with this album. Without ruining the story, I will say 'Spare This Life' is a great opening with King's famous growls; the music and sound effects on 'Storm' are well done; the wording on 'Mansion In Sorrow' is captivating; 'Slippery Stairs' has some nice riffs; 'Broken Glass' could have been written by Edgar Allen Poe; (The keyboards are the perfect touch.) If I say much more, I will probably ruin the story, and I'd rather not do that to you. But it will suffice to say that in the spirit of King Diamond, revenge DOES NOT LEAD to a happy ending. (I think Hollywood still needs to figure this out, but we won't go there.) I know some people complained about 'recycled riffs,' but let's be fair. No matter how good a writer is, there will come a point in his career where it's either bring back some old ideas or risk having nothing at all. (Look at how the animated Batman series brought back some ideas from the 60s Adam West series.) All in all, if you are expecting the same magic of the 1st 'Abigail,' then you are probably setting yourself up for a disappointment. IF, on the other hand, you are willing to accept that King Diamond made this record in response to our request for it, that King's vocals are in tip top shape, that Andy La Rocque and Mike Wead may have been in better shape, but are still in great shape, that the great bass work of Hal Patino is back, and that King Diamond NEVER, REPEAT NEVER abandoned his style when Metallica and several others DID, then BY ALL MEANS, pick this record up. King Diamond may not get the applause that Metallica, Jim Hendrix, Britney Spears, Eddie Van Halen, and several others get. BUT, ask yourself: 'Who consistently made record after record that DID NOT drop in quality?' 'Who held onto his style while others looked for quick hits?' 'Who stayed true to himself and never sold out?' If your answer is King Diamond, then get this record.

A FANTASTIC ALBUM!! A FANTASTIC GHOST STORY!!!!!!.......2005-02-09

King Diamond has managed to once again put a a really TERRIFIC album!!! The songwriting and the guitar work are AMAZING!!(they ALWAYS are though!!)A GREAT follow-up to the original 1987 release(which is MY Personal favorite!!) This album is BEST heard with headphones(there are alot sound effects to add to the SPOOKY atmosphere of the album)This is one of those albums that gets BETTER each time you listen to it!! The production on this CD is great!! If your a BIG King Diamond fan,I don't think you'll be dissapointed in this purchase.

Listen with Earphones and Be Astounded.......2007-03-12

As I've said in other reviews of music, I don't know the technicalities, but I know what I like. Wynton Marsalis has never failed to delight and, truth be told, I use "In Gabriel's Garden" as background music in the office and to fall asleep to. As smooth or smoother than any trumpet player I've ever heard, and his "Moto Perpetuo" is simply unbelievable.

He rounds out my four favorite classical musicians: Itzhak Perlman, Earl Wild, David Russell, and Wynton Marsalis. How would you like to see all four on stage? A pipe dream: I can't even get tickets to any one of them unless I know four years in advance that they're going to be in town.

Btw, "Classical Wynton" is my all-time favorite Marsalis album.

I have one wish, and can't forgive PBS for not doing this: Wynton had a program for kids about jazz, and after "its run," they never brought it back. I think it should be required in all schools.

Sweet baroque trumpet music!.......2005-10-01

It was the first disc that acquaints me with this trumpeter 2 years ago and i was suprised by that the disc brought me more than i ever dared expect from it, probably the artist is not active enough like a professional classical specialist to establish an impression to me as a classical artist from which I would like to expect more and more but this one is stunningly wonderful classical cd,although its sound quality is not preferable to me:the orchestre sounds too timid,afterall the trumpeter Mr Marsalis does not fail in retain my interest in the disc.well I cannot say more for trumpet is a complete musically stranger to me.if there are more classical trumpet music discs coming up.I would look forward to this name.

Praising The Most High Through The Clarion Voice.......2003-07-18

...a lowly servant heralding the return of The King...

...perhaps at the fringe society-wise, but nevertheless a clarion voice in praise of The Most High...

...stunning and spiritually invigorating...

Wonderful Wynton.......2001-12-15

Wynton Marsalis is a superb musician. His style is bright, pure and exuberant, but he has a tendency to go a little overboard sometimes. In this CD that tendency is particularly evident in his rendition of Bach's Brandenburg Concerto. However, his playing is terribly moving and charismatic and he brings a vitality to these pieces that is seldom present in other performers' interpretations. The repertoire is very varied and the English Chamber Orchestra provide wonderful accompaniment. These versions may be a little flamboyant sometimes, but they are great nonetheless, and Wynton's masterful playing is always worth listening. Very few people can express the sheer joy of making music as intensely as Mr. Marsalis; his renditions of Jeremiah Clarke's works are absolutely marvellous.

Darn Good Trumpet Playing.......2001-11-11

Okay, I'll admit Mr. Marsalis may have taken some liberties with the music and made it a little more "flashy," shall we say. However, this IS Wynton Marsalis, and as long he continues to play impeccably on all his albums (this one being no exception), he can do whatever he darn well pleases as far as I'm concerned.

On this recording, Wynton Marsalis produces music from an instrument from which it is difficult for most other trumpet players to get any kind of respectable sound. His mastery of the piccolo trumpet is nothing short of remarkable, to say the least. If you've ever tried to play one, after hearing this you will gain a much deeper appreciation for the man's seemingly limitless talent and potential with both piccolo and regular trumpets.

Yes, piccolo trumpet means some high notes, so if high notes bother you, maybe you should shy away from this one and pick out another one of Mr. Marsalis' spectacular albums.

Conclusion: Why four stars instead of five? Mostly because of the liberties taken with the music. Still unbelievable trumpet playing - worth the price just for that.

Take a fine organist, a crack brass ensemble, bathe in wide-ranging, vivid sound, and you've got a recipe for an exciting disc. That's what Telarc has done in this recording of a live concert by the Empire Brass Quintet in effective arrangements of Baroque favorites and rarities. It may seem odd to hear a Handel Violin Sonata or a Telemann Trio Sonata played by a brass-organ combo, but it works thanks to clever arrangements and superb playing. A highlight here is the Largo of the Handel work, where marvelous horn and trombone solos enhance its beauties. And of course, such favorites as Jeremiah Clarke's Trumpet Voluntary and the Prince of Denmark's March join Campra's stately Rigaudon and other stirring processional pieces. The SACD version adds another level of air and bite, but the CD layer of this hybrid disc is demonstration quality too. --Dan Davis

Kula is back!.......2007-07-06

So here is the totally unexpected return from Kula Shaker, who reformed last year.
Definitely a solid EP- Revenge of the King is a great song, and Troubodor is a Kula classic (very Rubber Soul Beatles sounding). Dictator of the Free World is a demo version of the lead single off 2007's full-length "Strangefolk", this version being slower and not a "full". And Six Feet Down is an average song, reminds me of Zeppelin (not to mention some lyrics that come straight from Physical Graffiti's "In My Time of Dying").
Finally, and contrary to what Amazon says of above, is a live version of Govinda (NOT Grateful When You're Dead) from a Japanese radio session.

Contains lyrics in both English and Japanese. Cool artwork. Worthy pickup for any Kula Shaker fan- anyone new to the group should check out 1996's "k" and this year's "Strangefolk" first.

God bless Kula shaker.......2007-05-29

Revenge of the king is a solid new release from a band that split too early in their career. Its good to have them back once again. The album has an anti-bush undercurrent flowing throughout the album. The only song that truly reminds of "vintage" kula shaker is Troubador which is a fantastic song. Musically the quartet has expanded their sound from the pschedelic trimmings of previous offerings but don't worry their is plenty of organ to keep fans satisifed.
The title track Revenge of The King starts with the classic shaker swagger and defintely proves they are back witha vengence. Dictator of the free world is more interesting lyrically than musically but the chorus is a not so subtle jab at the commander in chief. Troubador my personal favorite track off of the e.p. Is a pleasing mix of dylan and beatles and is a true highlight in the groups entire cataloge.six feet down is the albums biggest departure for the group sounding more like soundgarden than the doors. Imagine sound garden with a bizzare gospel twist. All in all Revenge of The King is a fantastic release that should not be over looked. The forthcoming full length album "Strangefolk" will be a great change for the current diluted musical landscape. Kula Shaker reigns once again!

A MUST BUY!!!.......2001-03-03

If I had to choose one CD to spend a month locked in isolation with, this would be the one. Its varied but it flows well together. It's restive and soothing. The quality is beyond excellent!!! At the price, anyone is a fool not to own it, and give it lavishly as gifts. Its gorgeous, lush and fabulous! Everyone that hears it in our home, falls in love with it!

Great music, Excellent Value!.......2000-07-26

Rarely can one buy so much good music for so little. This compilation features almost 80 minutes of high quality music.

This truly is essential!.......1999-10-23

What a brilliant idea from one of our leading record companies! On this disc, they have assembled a programme of highlights from their vast collection of choral, vocal, orchestral, and solo instrumental music that is very satisfying. As with most CDs of this sort, it is a case of some tracks not appealing as much as others- I for instance am a lover of choral music so the gorgeous renditions of Stanford's "Magnificat" by St. Paul's Cathedral Choir or John Sheppard's divine motet "Libera Nos" by the Sixteen are obvious preferences of mine. However, whether you seek dyed-in-the-wool orchestral classics as Haydn's "Surprise" Symphony, less familiar works performed by period artists (such as "'E irei Madr'a Vigo" by ancient Spanish composer Martin Codax), or snippets of breathtaking instrumental solos (such as the rousing performance of Lefebure-Wely's "Sortie in E flat" which is sadly only an excerpt), this disc is bound to have something on it for you. And all of it is finely recorded.

A Purcell Sampler, or a Greatest Hits disk, if you prefer........2006-02-05

This is a compilation disk of Greatest Hits, as it were, of Henry Purcell recorded by various artists from 1953 (the Alfred Deller track) through the 1970s through 1994. The point of the disk was part of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the much to early death of this great composer and one of the great geniuses of music that England or Britain has ever produced. I have always been a devotee of his music and absolutely adore the way he set English. It is absolutely unique to him and so full of wonderful effects that create a greater whole than the music or words alone.

1995 was a year when we got to revel in everything Purcell. I was able to see a very delightful staging of "The Indian Queene" in London at the Barbican. It had narration, dancing, the singing, and wonderful playing. At the other portion of the concert, I enjoyed a performance of "Come, Ye Sons of Art" and other works by Hogwood et al. I was hoping to hear Kirkby, and she was billed. However, she was ill. Catherine Bott did a fine job as did John Bowman (both on this disk). Another counter-tenor I was so impressed with was Robin Blaze. I haven't heard much of him since, but he was terrific that night.

There are selections from his works for stage such as "King Arthur", "The Fairy Queen", Did and Aneas, and more. The disk also provides a selection of instrumental works, some sacred selections, and all the works are a delight. The track of "Come, Ye Sons of Art" is from 1953 and recorded by Alfred Deller. If you love the movement of historically informed performance, you do owe some debt to Deller. He was an early reviver of the counter-tenor voice and trying to create a style of performance that might be more appropriate and true to the music of earlier times. He helped bring about new interest in madricals, and other early music forms.

That Emma Kirkby sings on the disk is, of course, a delight for me. I have been captivated by her singing since I first heard her live in December 1980. We also get to delight in the singing of soprano Catherine Bott and counter-tenor John Bowman. All are led by the great Christopher Hogwood (except for the Deller track, obviously).

Among the best.......2005-05-11

I first caught wind of One King Down when I was in college, and went to a hardcore show at a local frat house. They were replacing a local band, 607, and boy did they do the job! I went out and bought Bloodlust Revenge. While at first, I was not used to the screaming at first(I had still affiliated most screaming with bad death metal), the riffs were there, and I remembered how Rob & the rest of the band tore it up. Intense. Where did today's metalcore grow out of? Bands like One King Down is your answer. Buy this album!

Ahhhh.....Memories.......2003-12-16

Wow......havent heard this in a LONG time......as in since it first came out. Im an old HC fan from the QE2 days and this is where i first saw OKD. Although im not sXe, I still thought the band rocked and this CD was killer. I say buy it or be brutalized.

There is no equal.......2003-07-16

One King Down may have been on Equal Vision Records, but in the hardcore world, there is no other album that is Equal to Bloodlust Revenge. Nothing equals its musicianship, its perfectly recorded sound, or its vocalist's abilities. No hardcore band compares to One King Down. Their perfection in musical arrangement is unique and unrivaled and will remain so for a long time. If you are a hardcore fan and do not have this album, you have been wasting the last 6 years of your life.

If you are vsxe buy this and love it.......2001-12-08

Took me a little bit to get used to. Now that I have, its one of my favorites. Lyrics like poetic earth crisis and heavy, metal-core music. You'll fingerpoint and spout vsxe philosophy every time you hear it. Which is good.

This is the best version ,of hardcore.......2001-05-27
