5.0 out of 5 stars Jonesing to hear this, January 23, 2005

By	Paul Kendall "Paul" (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

Simply the best Jesus Jones release, as well as one of the better power pop/dance CDs of the previous decade.

Liquidizer outshines its more mainstream followup Doubt and challenging Perverse. Raw and wonderously underproduced, Mike Edwards and the band seem to just flow better.

"Move Mountains" is an absolute kicker. The wah wahs of "What's Going On?" are addictive. Another screamer of a track is "What Would You Know?", gotta love the siren. Catchy samples propel "Info Freako" and the reggae feeling to "Too Much to Learn" makes it a winner.

Liquidizer comes in at a clean 4.5 stars, I'll round up for sentimental reasons.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite release of 1990, August 20, 2009

By	kabalabonga - See all my reviews

Raw, muscular, and aggressively paced, "Liquidizer" was a revelation upon its stateside release. Sure, most of the songs are cut in either the pattern of "Move Mountains" or "Never Enough", but that doesn't spoil the fun; the sampling (to me a lot more cohesive than given credit for by some reviewers who have negative feedback to give about this CD) keeps the songs intriguing even after 19 years of listening. Other standouts include "Too Much to Learn", "Bring It On Down", and "Broken Bones", but every track has its own magic. Forget about "Doubt", primed to be radio-friendly on a generic A&R fashion; at least Mike Edwards got to make the record he wanted to make right out of the gate.

4.0 out of 5 stars Jesus Jones' debut, April 12, 2003

By	chris banez lim "Crutchead" (Philippines) - See all my reviews

This us edition by Nettwerk records of Jesus Jones' debut album from 1990... contains two other tracks : "Broken Bones" and "I Dont Want That Kind of Love" which are also not found in the Japanese special edition cd. JESUS JONES came out at the same time when grunge music had began making it's wave in the music industries main circles. The group broke out into the circuit with an incredible mixture of Rock, Pop, Thrash, and Techno bringing a fresh noise in the dawning of another era in the phases of Music's history. Somewhat profane and yet with the intelligence that is not present amongst ludicrous wanna-be-heavy wannabe's- this album blasts out with tracks such as "Move Mountains", "Never Enough", "Song 13", and the hard breaking "Bring It On Down". Oh and btw, don't forget "info Freako".
A great piece of a first album for one to witness coming out from the band.
