5.0 out of 5 stars Cyber Soul, August 31, 2002

By 

Guy Forks (Californication) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Artificial Intelligence (Audio CD)

This is where soul meets machines, & rock meets electronics (rocktronics?), in a very tasty stew which combines a wide range of influences into something distinctly new. Imagine the offspring of Jane's Addiction and Prince, then you're getting close to the spirit of this new trio.
Songs run from their ode to booty -"Bottoms Up"- and the screaming "Alien Sex" to the joyful "Laughter" or the mysteriously moving "The Whales". This album runs deep.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another Realm......., December 13, 2002

By 

Alien Sex Fiend (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Artificial Intelligence (Audio CD)

Okay, so I admit it...I'm pretty snobby about the music I listen to. And I must add that I have been rather bored and frustrated with most new music. It all sounds the same; I was very ready for something new.

I did not even remotely know what to expect from a electronic/rock band, WHATSOEVER, but keeping an open mind, I popped in the debut record from L.A.'s A.I. I thought, surely this could not be pulled off. But about halfway through the first song, my skepticism had completely melted away...track one, "Bottoms Up", immediately caught my attention and reeled me in. It was interesting musically, had texture, and featured elements of funk that could not be ignored. The following track, "One Man's War", hosted a sensual ferocity, the smooooooth vocals taking you to another (dreamy) realm in the verses, and snapping you back to reality in the chorus.

Then we get to "Alien Sex". This seems to be the star track of the record, and rightfully so. The colorful blend of humorous lyrics and a funky, driving sound almost make you feel as if YOU are in outer space. Followed up by the very pretty, very sensual "Soul Rescue", by this point I was extremely hooked. Being a big fan of diversity, before the record was even halfway over, I had already pushed the repeat button.

If you haven't heard this band, take a chance and buy the cd. You certainly get your money's worth.

My favorite tracks: the fun rambunctious "Alien Sex", "Soul Rescue", the melodic, pretty "Say You'll Stay", and "She Says".

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome sound!, October 7, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Artificial Intelligence (Audio CD)

These guys have an awesome sound. I bought this cd after I saw them play live in L.A. with Money Mark and am definitely glad I bought the cd. The beats, rythms and lyrics are so fun. Alien Sex is the best! Everyone should get this cd, it's worth it.
