5.0 out of 5 stars I very rarely put up 5 stars, December 23, 1999

This review is from: Cocoon Crash (Audio CD)

K's choice is the only band i know that is so Ying Yang, Hot and Cold, Man and Woman, Good and Evil at the same time. Let me explain, they are melodious and exquisite in all that they play and sing, sometimes under the form of an electrical and powerful song (Hide, Everything for free), sometimes under the form of a simple ballad (20 000 seconds, God in my bed), or even an accoustic but still rythmic song (In your room, If you're not scared). Their lyrics mean something, for a change, the harmonies in each songs are outstanding. To sum up, this band really illustrates Alanis Morissette's hand in my pocket : they're made of contradictions, they are complex, and this album is the one that shows it the most. If you want an album that is a real sample of what they are, this is the one, then you can buy -Paradise in me-, the edgiest of their 3 albums, or -The Great subconscious club-, the more accoustic and the funniest, or you can wait for their fourth ep, due next spring...

4.0 out of 5 stars K's Choice (should be anyone's), May 28, 2000

This review is from: Cocoon Crash (Audio CD)

I first heard this band through "Not an Addict," paid attention, and forgot them. Then I heard the gorgeous single "Virgin State of Mind" on the Buffy TV soundtrack, and went out instantly and bought all the K's Choice I could find.

This album is for those who like a hint of sweetness with their edge -- Sarah's voice still sounds a little ragged, but in a wonderful "I survived last night" kind of way. The songs are melodic and as upbeat as those on "Paradise in Me" were grim. I've become a fan of the band, and highly recommend this as the first purchase for those seeking to get to know them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Original, talented and great song writers, May 17, 2000

This review is from: Cocoon Crash (Audio CD)

Maybe its a family thing but Sarah and Gert have a natural ability to write songs together! and what results! This album is much less raw than Paradise in me. There is a certain element of Maturity. The first song I ever heard was Not an Addict which had both originality and crunch. While on holiday (isn't it always the way!)I heard Everything for Free and instanly recognised Sarah's voice. I bought the album straight away as this song completely wowed me. The video was also cool.

The album has a mixture of hard rocking anthems coupled with acoutic guitars and ballads. Believe is an unbeleivable song! As is In your room and Winners. The acoustic songs: 20,000 seconds, Quiet little place and Now is mine are all delightful. As is the power of Cocoon crash and Hide.

I thought the choice in singles could have been better but the first 2, (Believe and Everything for Free) are two of my favourite K's Choice songs.

K's Choice have indeed matured without the need to sell out like so many before. Still a fans band, we can be treated to the varied greatness to this, and in my opinion, their best album. and the artwork's pretty too!

Definitely worth the purchase, I cant really compare them to another band as they are so orginal. As are their 3 studio albums, each has a different sound and character. A sign of a great band!
