2.0 out of 5 stars I must be the only one..., August 4, 2001

By	Anthony J. Venezia (Cleveland, OH United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

... who was EXTREMELY disappointed in this single. I'm a HUGE fan of Orgy, I've been following them since 'Candyass' came out. I got this puppy used for ..., and that should have been an indication of how badly the previous owner wanted to get rid of it.

The first mix, the Hardnox Mix, is probably one of the best songs on the CD, which is why it's probably the first track. Very beat-heavy with good atmospherics, it's a slowed down version of the original. Track two, P.Q.M.'s Cracker Beat Radio Pass, is a VERY hip-hop version of Stitches that sticks to the original lyrics almost word for word, no restructuring or anything. Not great. The third mix, DJ Dan's mix, made me take two stars off this CD. DJ Dan should be dragged in the street, shot, and stripped of his DJ card. It drones on for 8 1/2 painful minutes, and to this day I can't tell that it's a remix of Stitches, let alone anything else.

P.Q.M.'s Amped Up Dub [with Vocals] isn't music. It's my CD skipping on the words "so precious" over a droning beat for 8:15. I'm losing faith in P.Q.M. by this point. Oh yeah, the CD just lost two more stars. Apparently P.Q.M.'s Cracker Beat Pass might be longer than the Radio version, but other than that, I can't tell a difference. Wow. Track 6, the Smack My Stitch Up Extended Mix, now this is good. It starts off with a slow beat and heavy guitars, and is a REAL dark aggro hip-hop mix. It's appreance saves what would have been a terrible CD, and gets it back up to a whopping two stars.

Dissention only makes one appearance, so don't be tricked by the "Stitches/Dissention" name of this CD, it's Stitches +1. Guess what? The first half is darn near identical to the original; it only changes up when the chorus of "Don't waste your f***ing time" appears, which has been reworded to "Don't waste your precious", and slowed down a bit. It sounds cool, but "Don't waste your precious time"? Come on.

Oh yeah, the video for 'Stitches' is also on here. I wasn't impressed. Overall, this is a terrible buy for your money, only buy this if you are the most die-hard of Orgy fans, have this urge to see the 'Stitches' video, or you can get it for a ... or ... like I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent solid single / video / remixes, July 28, 2001

By	Geoffrey Johnson "sitebender" (Lake Villa, IL United States) - See all my reviews

First off this is the most solid single I have ever seen, because of the amount of remixes, the song, and the CD Extra that comes with it complete with a video of Stitches. There are six remixes of Stitches on here and one remix of Dissension. The band explores new remixing methods in this single, such as having a DJ / turntablist for the DJ Dan remix, and they even have Dave "the rave" Oglivie remixing on this single (Dave is one of the better remixers on Earth). The only downfall is that in the middle the CD drags with some repetitive dance remixes, but at least there is more original remixes than not. The single is worth getting just for the video, because where else can you see it full screen quality? The video features unique special effects, such as the band playing in front of the camera, while it is playing in the background in an incredible mechanical glass box! Worth a see!

5.0 out of 5 stars Real Good., February 12, 2000

By	Amir Tajakin (Los Angeles, California) - See all my reviews

I like incubus (they have a DJ) and techno metal music. So when I heard track 6 on stitches, i got real excited. I bought it a day later, and wow. what a single. it has the stitches video, dissention, and six versions of stitches. some were a little boring, but in the end it was good. They have a DJ in no. 6 and it sounds real cool, cuz they dont have one in their band. buy the push it cd single from static x its cool too.
