4.0 out of 5 stars 'Doll Domination' Review, September 23, 2008

The Pussycat Doll's second album, 'Doll Domination', is a decent follw-up album. I don't think it really lives up to the hype or even the title, though. With a title like 'Doll Domination' I expect each track to be really good, radio friendly and just mind blowingly good. Yet, some tracks are just okay while others come off as nothing more than a purr and are timid.

The Good: PCD is at their best on songs where they are singing something upbeat and being a bit provocative. Some of the best tracks on the album are 'Magic', 'Elevator', 'Whatchamacallit' and 'When I Grow Up' because they're fun and dance/pop orientated and very entertaining. I enjoyed these songs because they weren't what you hear on the radio and have the same production of some of the group's best songs from their previous release.

The Bad: There are a few things that kept this from being a five-star release. First, yet again we're faced with Nicole (the lead doll) pretty much being featured throughout the album. I can only hear and pick out her voice on most tracks. This was something of a let down because on the special edition, we are treated to the other members of the group having songs they're featured on and, to no one's surprise, they can sing as well! Yet, this CD is more 'Nicole Scherzinger feat. The Pussycat Dolls' than anything else. This probably contributes to some songs simply not standing out from the others. Second complaint is that while the slow songs are okay, on this album, they simply sound like B-side tracks. There was something off about the production and that excitement and edge captured in the upbeat songs are just lost when the tempo is slowed. Every song isn't good. Probably, I'd say this is an average dance/pop album and not all the songs vibe and go well together. There was more than one or two tracks that sounded like B-sides to me with a lack of spirit and effort.

In all, it's a good album, but could be better. I enjoyed the dance and up-beat tracks, would have appreciated hearing some other voices featured on the songs, but otherwise, better than a lot of other CDs released in this genre. Check it out.

5.0 out of 5 stars Meant for it's audience, September 30, 2008

To those who are reading these comments, note that this type of music isn't for everyone. If you are curious why their music sounds this way I suggest you first take some time to do a little research. This album is very catchy and fun, meant to be fresh and young. I believe someone further down the comment list will tell you that in the song, "When I Grow Up" the word "boobies" is brought up in the song. This is false information, she says "groupies". Other than that I found the album interesting, some songs seemed repetitive, but there were variences in style as well like the song "In Person" Coming from this source, and album with this many tracks is a deal at $2.99. I would recommend it if your a fan, and if you want some light hearted poppy cool music.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best albums of 2008, January 3, 2009

This is in my opinion a very good album. I bought it because of 'out of this club' but there are other great songs-the mid tempo stuff that will make great singles too. Reminds me of some nice songs by Atomic Kitten.
Great album!
