More southern influenced sludge from the COC-Crowbar-Pantera connection. I like NOLA better, but this one ain’t bad.

Their second was just as good as their first, but even on a major label, no support = no sales. Too bad. More quality hard rock that hardly anyone will hear.

Review:
Disturbed goes back to their first two albums to create their third. It has the harder edge of The Sickness while drawing upon the melody that Believe brought to the table. The interesting 80’s cover song returns as well, this time with Genesis’ ‘Land of Confusion’, which I always liked, so I dig the cover also. The lyrics seem to be more straightforward and political than in the past. Musically, you can be sure this sounds exactly like you’d think a Disturbed album should sound like, and that’s not a bad thing.

Review:
The sophomore effort was pretty good, but not nearly as good as The Sickness was. This one had more melody, and was certainly radio friendly, but seemed to lack the harder edge that The Sickness had. Still a decent album to rock out to.

Depeche Mode – 1998 – The Singles 86>98

<p><b>Review:</b><br />
<br />
I found out that I knew a lot more Depeche Mode songs than I thought I did when my sister first bought this, and I enjoyed it so much that I found it for cheap, and bought it for myself. Since then, I’ve actually listened to it quite a bit.<br /></p>

<p><b>Review:</b><br />
<br />
May as well complete the singles collection. I had 96-98 first, but wanted the whole set. I don’t know nearly as many songs on this one as I do on the following collection.<br /></p>

Review:
It’s pop for the tween set, but he has some soul influences in there, and the guy can actually sing. Tiff heard of him because “I Don’t Wanna Be” is the theme song to One Tree Hill, and she checked it out from there. He has his chops live also.
Sold as a 2-CD set, Stripped is the entire Chariot album redone with different arrangements, along with a cover of Sam Cooke’s ‘A Change Is Gonna Come’.
