5.0 out of 5 stars the killer album of the year.........., December 19, 2001

By	Matthew Ostman (Dallas, Texas United States) - See all my reviews

Buy this album now. Do not hesitate. Definitely one of the best albums released this year. The Automator proves once again he is a musical pioneer putting together such a genius group of musicians for this album. Mike Patton can sing anything and sound good and proves it on every song he appears on. He has so much vocal range and uses every bit of it. His duets with Jennifer Charles are beautiful, seductive and very raunchy and their voices work so well with each other. Kid Koala lays down some phat samples mixing jazz, funk and just straight chill grooves and beats like a pro. This is the future of music ladies and gentlemen and these guys are at the forefront so pay attention. Everything that Dan The Automator and Mike Patton come out with are brilliant, in their own respective "genres" of music, and they both come together like a puzzle. I just can't say enough good things about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Where else have you heard this?, November 1, 2004

By	Kevin A. Koester "wonderboard" (Ann Arbor, Mi) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I grew up a metal head. Thoroughly. The first song I ever heard was by Megadeth. I have hated hip-hop and rap forever. I did not know that something like this was possible. This album has given me culture shock to a degree. I found this like most of you from Mike Patton lineage. This album really got me back into music. I was staunchly set in my ways. I like how some of the people day that it is satire or a joke. I'm not going to argue. My opinion differs though. This seems like something that happened when a bunch of people who really enjoyed what they were doing, got together, and decided that they were going to do what felt right to them. Not what would be funny. Or what would sell a million albums. This is music for music. Not music for profit.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most adventurous album of the year..., January 21, 2002

By	eightpointagenda "Sean" (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

..and quite possibly the most bizarre one at that. It should be known that any project that Dan The Automator has his hands on will be more than auditory pleasure, but also an adventure as well. Never settling for less, Dan always pushes his creativity to the limit. Lovage is the perfect exibition of this plain and simple fact.

A brilliant mix of trip-hop and lounge music, Lovage presents 15 tracks that attempt to create a very relaxed and yet very moving experience. All while trying to keep his joke running. The results are mixed but I still have to aploud his effort for something this creative. Especially in a year when so much comercial [stuff] slipped through the cracks onto mainstream radio. Musically, it stays within its set bounds but always remains adventurous, never presenting you with the same beats, samples, and vocals, which keeps the listening experience fresh. Speaking of vocals, it should be said that the vocals are the stand out here on the album. Between Mike Patton's overly dramatic stylings and Jennifer Charles soothing chill, the interplay between the two is downright perfect for this type of record.

The problem with this record is that not all of it is as compelling as the rest of it. But the fact that Dan Nakamura is still willing to challenge popular music and hip-hop shows that some people still care about artistic integrity. Plus there is some good stuff on the album too. Which makes it all worth while. Try it when everything else seems to have gone stale. Its its like taking a bite out of a fresh loaf.
