If the White Stripes are the new Led Zeppelin, The Whip is the
new New Order. --Wired.com

Best thing to happen to dance music. Mutilatingly brilliant. --nme

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing variety of songs, August 23, 2009

I didn't expect that I would get songs differing so much from each other in terms of fast/slow, electronic/instrumental. I'm used to Daft Punk being pretty much the same electronica all the way through.
I LOVE The Whip and what they have done here, the balance of syth sounds and instrumentals are balance perfectly throughout the entire cd. Can't wait for another release.

3.0 out of 5 stars Some uneccesary song versions and bad remixes., June 25, 2009

This review is from: X Marks Destination (Audio CD)

2 good songs 'Muzzle#1' and 'Blackout' are partially ruined in this CD. 'Muzzle#1' has an idiotic music change (comparing to music clip) when a singer sings "I'm moving for no one, the lights have started shining on in...". 'Blackout' is a complete different version from music clip. It's not bad, but my point is that the video version was so good that CD version does not sound well in comparison! 4 remixes sound cheap, I always skip them.

Overall, 'X Marks Destination' is good. Additional songs like 'Frustration' and 'Sirens' are as good or even better than 'Trash'.
