5.0 out of 5 starsThe most fun CD I own--awesome to listen to cranked UP!!
By Matt on September 9, 2001
Format: Audio CD
This CD is so cool in every respect. The songs are well written and fun to listen to (see "When I'm President"). The musicianship on this record is incredible--it's no wonder Eddie Van Halen chose Gary Cherone to be the (short lived) vocalist for Van Halen. As for Nuno Bettencourt, I think he's a very underrated guitar player. Maybe not underrated, but unknown? At least I rarely ever hear about him, and I'm a guitar player. Check out the intro to "He Man Woman Hater," called "Flight of the Wounded Bumble Bee" (and YES, Nuno *did* play that, contrary to what another reviewer said...that was *not* Dweezil Zappa. He played on a different song.).
The recording quality of this CD is great. It's how every metal/hard rock CD should sound. The guitars aren't all muddy and washed out. They're loud, but clear, and you can still hear the vocals and everything else over them. Sounds GREAT cranked up. Extreme's best album without a doubt.

5.0 out of 5 starsblew me away
By Eduardo N. Carrillo on March 26, 2003
Format: Audio CD
Toward the late '80s I was getting very disillusioned with all this glam rock. Everyone sounded the same. Then Extreme came along. I bought this cd for More Than Words, but was extremely surprised by what I heard. Normally, it takes a while for a cd to grow on me; to hear the music; to look more closely at the lyrics. Not so with Pornograffitti! Immediately with the opening song, Decadence Dance, and all throughout I was totally blown away by how original and exciting this band was. Nuno is a guitar wizard, guitar god, guitar genius and every other superlative you can think of. Their vocal harmonies are amazing , Gary's lyrics are very creative and poetic at times, and Nuno's guitar work and solos are breath-taking. This is just an amazing cd on all levels. It revived my interest in music and continues to be my all time favorite work by Nuno Bettencourt. I would recommend this to any and every rock fan.

4.0 out of 5 starsStunningly accomplished.
By Karl John Krumrey IV on January 28, 2000
Format: Audio CD
In every era of music, there's those bands that just have talent coming out their orifices, yet somehow slip through the cracks of the mainstream audience. Extreme is this era's underrated wonder. Sadly they are categorized by their two mainstream hits (from this album) 'More than Words' and 'Hole Hearted'. While they're both great songs, lord, there's so much more to this band.
From the power-chord kickoff of Decadent Dance, the listener knows that their proverbial a**es are about to be kicked for an hour. Aside from the occasional ballad, this album rocks out without a shred of filler. Cherone finally settles into a comfortable Freddie Mercury-ish vocal style that suits him and the music perfectly. Nuno's guitar playing is kicked into high octane from their debut album, it's more well-timed, restrained, yet way out of the league of 95% of the musical population. The rhythm section is at their best on this recording, as well.
This album's only shortcoming is that it loses it's momentum towards the end. Suzi (Wants her all day What?) seems to be a filler song, and 'When I First Kissed You', while certainly loungey, loose, and different, won't appeal to everyone. It picks up again with Nuno's blistering 'Flight of the Wounded Bumblebee' guitar interlude, and the final three songs are more masterpeices.
Pornograffiti is the album to start with when looking into this sadly overlooked group. Their best was yet to come, though.

5.0 out of 5 starsThe peak of a talented band
By John Alapick on February 14, 2015
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
Pornograffiti showed Extreme at their peak. A step forward from their fine debut, Pornograffiti showed the talented band pulling out all the stops. Extreme were categorized as a hair metal band, a claim that is off the mark as they were way more ambitious. Most know the band for their gigantic hits "More Than Words" and "Hole Hearted" but they are so much more. "More Than Words" hit #1 and for good reason. It's a beautiful song. A modern classic. "Hole Hearted" was the campfire singalong of the era. However, Extreme were no two hit wonder. One listen to Pornograffiti or their followup album, Three Sides to Every Story, will spell that argument quick. "Song for Love" is a powerful anthem that was nearly as memorable as the hits and was actually closer in spirit to Queen (Brian May positively compared his band to Extreme after Freddie Mercury passed) than the hair metal of the day while "When I First Kissed You" is a cool lounge jazz song that the band pull off with ease. From this point, it's mostly funk-metal and hard rock but every track here has a chorus or arrangement that is very catchy as evidenced on the album rock hits "Decadence Dance" and "Get the Funk Out", the anthems "Li'l Jack Horny", "Suzi (Wants All Her Day What?)", and "Money (In God We Trust)", and the heavier "It ('s a Monster)" and the title track. Nuno Bettencourt, whose guitar work is stellar throughout, also plays a sick version of "Flight of the Bumblebee" that leads into "He Man Woman Hater" that shows his immense chops. All told, in the so called hair metal band era, this is one of the truly must own albums of the time.

4.0 out of 5 starsLess than timeless, but effective.
By Matthew on October 14, 2014
Format: Audio CD
In the late 1980s, something got into the water supply and convinced top forty radio to take on the big issues. Personally, I can't figure out a pop environment full of toy soldiers pondering another day in paradise - even Axl Rose was compelled to question the civility of war - but that's just the way it was. Nirvana is often credited with breaking down this sort of preaching, but such mainstream acts as U2 and Genesis had already figured out how to sharpen such things with sarcasm several months before Nevermind hit the shelves. This is the long ago, far away world that spawned Pornograffitti.

Gary "Van Halen III Never Happened" Cherone and faithful shredder/backing vox Nuno Bettencourt give away the game with the first killer hook - dance into the decadence! - and stay with it throughout the album. It's a pretty simple trick, but it put Extreme near the top of their dying genre as far as intelligence goes. That won't spare you, the listener of 2014, from filing this under "guilty pleasures" as the whole thing was dated on arrival, but it was enough to get them designated an art-pop outfit. How ridiculous is Florence Welch going to look in five years...but I digress.

The music has a couple more tricks up its sleeve than the lyrics. While it's all still mostly verse-chorus-verse, Bettencourt's guitar stunts never lose the melody and sometimes engage in some interesting call-and-response with Cherone. Several songs play around with surprising arrangements: you're probably familiar with the country-pop of "Hole Hearted" from two decades of radio play, but there's a lounge number (self-deprecating but not sarcastic) and an ear-wormy bit of white boy funk waiting to be heard again.Read more ›
