4.0 out of 5 stars This is (almost) perfection! January 28, 2010

By C. W. Fitch

Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase

Great set of tunes overall!
I know I've been looking everywhere for a lot of these songs long before this compilation came out, and I know that I'm probably not alone. There are a couple of tracks here that make downloading this comp worth it (not to mention the price), and there are plenty of others that will have you singing right along in the gym/car/house/etc.
I'm glad Jim Johnston expanded his horizons once again and got some real bands to help him make some good themes even better. Johnston's always been a Zen master of producing memorable entrance music for the most popular WWE stars, and he hit the mark again with this one. (He's done this before, of course, with "Forceable Entry" and "Wreckless Intent", and generally, it hasn't disappointed yet.) Many of the themes have a similarity to them as far as song structure, but the bands' contributions are what make each track unique. (Besides, on TV you're only going to hear the first minute or so of the songs anyway.) Story of the Year's take on Christian's theme is just the makeover that song needed, and is one of the best. Mutiny Within destroys Evan Bourne's theme as well, and just from the first few notes my adrenaline started flowing. It's an old-school-style heavy metal classic, complete with a blazing guitar solo in the middle. I've always liked Sheamus' theme; no matter what people may think about the wrestler, you have to admit the Celtic flavor spicing up the hard rock matches his persona perfectly. "Return the Hitman" and "Crank the Walls Down" are hidden gems, with Maylene and the Sons of Disaster adding some extra oomph to a grinding mash-up of Chris Jericho's and Big Show's themes.
Of course, as with every WWE Music compilation, not every track is a winner.... "Radio" is pretty forgettable (just like the Zack Ryder himself), and the Diva tracks are just as much candy as the divas they represent. If you like sugary dance grooves, they're right up your alley. And I'd have gladly traded Primo's reggaeton-ish theme for another; it sticks out like an infected appendage on a comp full of driving hard rock tunes.
WWE and Jim Johnston seem to really be stepping it up with their music production. Overall, this is a great compilation that showcases not only some of the WWE's bright new talent, but introduces the listener to some cool new bands in the process. It's one of the best collections overall that WWE has put out. The only thing that would've really put this collection over the top is if they had included the new theme songs from RAW (Nickelback's "Burn It to the Ground"), Smackdown (Divide the Day's "Let It Roll"), and WWE Superstars (Adelitas Way's "Invincible"), but they can all easily be found elsewhere on Amazon. Definitely worth picking up if you're a WWE fan or just looking for some new bands, especially at less than five bucks. Read more ›

I simply love James Johnstons work. I can sit and listen to his themes all day long. If you haven't started your collection yet maybe now is a good time to start!

4.0 out of 5 stars Best WWE Album Ever!!! July 5, 2010

By Jason

Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase

As a fan of WWE myself, I can honestly say this is the best album WWE has ever made, as every track has never been released before, and include the newest superstars to the business. I was really excited when I bought this, and I was not disappointed. Here's my opinion on each song:

1. It's a New Day: Now simply Ted DeBiase's theme after Legacy dissolved, this is an excellent choice to start the album off with. The song is also symbolic in this sense, as this album features "a new day" of young superstars. Even by itself, this theme is very good.
2. I am Perfection: Dolph's theme is pretty good. Not quite as good as Ted's, but still another good choice for this album.
3. I Came to Play: I was surprised at how much I liked Miz's theme better after hearing it on the album. I was also surprised at how long it is - almost 5 minutes! I definately appreciate this song more now after I've heard it by itself.
4. Just Close Your Eyes: One of the best songs on the album. Christian's theme has been released before, but not this version he's used since he returned to the WWE. It far surpasses the older version, and it is one of my favorites.
5. Return the Hitman: This one also surprised me. Every WWE fan has heard Bret Hart's theme before, so I wasn't expecting a whole lot out of this. I easily overlooked it. The theme has been modernized for when Bret returned to the WWE, and it sounds even better than before. Even though this is the longest song on the album at 5:37, it never starts getting redundant. I loved it.
6. Written in my Face: Once again, you appreciate it more now after just hearing it without seeing Sheamus use it as an entrance. Another great theme to listen to.
7.... Insatiable: Now I have nothing against the divas, but unfortunately for them, their themes pale in comparison to the other superstars. This one's just dance music. If you like that sort of thing, you'll probably like this one. It was so-so for me.
8. Domination: Not bad. I'm not big into rap, so I wasn't overly impressed. But if you're into it, it's not a bad song.
9. Born to Win: Very good. Fast-paced and up-beat. Sounds great on the album, especially the jet sounds!
10. Oh Puerto Rico: Probably the worst on the album. It's just not a very good theme to begin with, and it's very forgettable.
11. Radio: Ever since Zack Ryder got his new look and started using this theme, I wanted it on MP3, and now it's here. Before I bought the album, I read a few reviews saying that this song is "forgettable". Don't believe them. This song is one of the best on the album. I think what sets it apart is that it's so different from all the other themes. It would be a good song to work out to, as the lyrics bring an extra masculine vibe to it.
12. New Foundation: If Bret's theme was not on the album, I wouldn't mind this one. But after hearing Bret's theme only several minutes before this song, the tune starts getting old. They should have had one or the other on the album, because they are too similar to have both of them on here. Taken alone, it's a great entrance. But it's a little too much with the Hitman's theme already on the album.
13. You Can Look - But You Can't Touch: Again, more dance music from the divas. It's so-so.
14. Crank the Walls Down: This is the mix of Chris Jericho's and Big Show's themes when they were a tag team. It's a great way to end the album. And if their entrances were not hard rock enough, the fusion of both adds even harder rock to the entrance. This is awesome!

Taken as a whole, this album is the best one WWE as ever released, and I highly reccommend it. Just a few of the song on here, such as Zack Ryder's, Christian's, and Miz's, are worth the price. Buy this now!!! Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars A New Day Has Dawned In WWE January 28, 2010

By Nick Malfitano

Format:MP3 Music|Amazon Verified Purchase

WWE has done it again, releasing their latest compilation album of superstar entrance themes, "The Music Volume 10: A New Day". Overall, in my opinion this is WWE's best track list for an album ever, including the full entrance music for superstars such as The Miz, Dolph Ziggler, Sheamus, Zack Ryder, Legacy and plenty of others.

There is truly something on here that everyone could enjoy - reggaeton fans will enjoy "Oh Puerto Rico" used by Primo, dance fans will enjoy "You Can Look But You Can't Touch" used by the Bella Twins, and hard rockers will love "Crank The Walls Down", which was used by the tag team of Chris Jericho and The Big Show. There are several different types of genres and superstars represented in the track list, and picking this up for only $3.99 was an incredible deal. Take advantage of it while you can!

5.0 out of 5 stars WWE The Music Volume 10 They FInally Got It Right January 28, 2010

By Chad Roose

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase

This albums is just awesome. I love 90% of the tracks on here which I couldn't really say about most of the albums that the WWE has released in the past few years. Sheamus',Bret Hart's New Theme and Christian's theme stick out the most to me and they are truly great songs. This album is great for any wrestling fan to just listen to on the way to work or work out too! I highly recommend you buy it and not to mention it's so cheap!!!!! When's the last time you paid $3.99 at an Itunes store for a full 14 track album or $8.99 for a full album at a record store? Exactly!
