5.0 out of 5 stars WTF?, December 7, 2003

By 

Nick (Round Rock, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Replicants (Audio CD)

This album shreds! Who gives a crap if they're covers? The opening track has been stuck in my head for at least a month now, and is far better than the original (which I still love mind you; but like a previous reviewer stated: Tool kicked ass on No Quarter, so why can't these guys kick ass?). The guitar effects are very remniscent of Orgy..... only good. The synthasizer really adds an effect to say the least. This isn't a cover band, this is a band in itself, and though Paul D'Amour is overshadowed by his previous band Tool, he is a great musician and has a great voice as heard on the last track which is a Pink Floyd cover. Also check out his band Lusk. This album is good, and if nothing else should be given a listen at least once.
(oh; and for all you die-hard posterboy Maynard freaks; he's on here too.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Bought on a whim, and glad I did!, November 3, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Replicants (Audio CD)

This album has become one of my favorite "Hmmmm, this will probably suck, but I'll give it a try" I have ever purchased. The selection of songs, given an industrial/rock interpretation, cover an interesting span of music (including some fairly obscure songs). Immediatly I was drawn into the CD when the familiar yet refurbished version of the Cars' "Just What I Needed" started and the "extra" drum beats and keyboards kicked in. The cover of "Destination Unknown" with its narrative is ultra-cool , and just the fact that a (fantastic) cover of "Are Friends Electric" is on the CD is a treat. I highly recommend this CD to others who like well done covers as a fresh take on good music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Originally purchased for Maynard song, but love it!, January 6, 2000

I bought this CD because I am a fan of Tool. I didn't know what to expect from the other songs on this CD, but after listening to it a few times through, you begin to wiggle your bum to it which proves it's a good album.
