5.0 out of 5 stars Beware Of The Alien Nation!, April 2, 2006
By Joy Elizabeth Teets (Fairfax, VA USA) - See all my reviews
Just sample that Alien Nation track and tell me that it isn't rock/metal! This is REAL rock people! The music itself for Alien Nation totally kicks ass and the melody is mind blowing!

No Pain No Gain is another awesome rocker where everything just comes together perfectly! This is awesome metal here!

Ship Of Fools is another masterpiece which features an Opera singer!

I love all Scorpions albums and this is no exception! All these songs are just as good as all their other stuff! Awesome lyrics, awesome melodies, just awesome music!

The whole CD is rock and it's worth it for the Alien Nation song alone which has one of the most awesome guitar solos and hooks ever! Any Scorpions fan needs this CD in their collection, it's a must have!

3.0 out of 5 stars An OK scorps effort, July 28, 1999
By Michael J Harrington (Phoenix, Arizona USA) - See all my reviews
OK - Scorpions have been around forever, but it seems that heavy metal years equate to more than the likes of 'Rolling Stones' years! Give em a break!! There are some strong songs on this, although I must admit that it is not as good as 'Crazy World'. Forget the 80's Scorps - they are finding their way in the awfully confused 90's, where if you are not alterna-trash or thrash, you get lost. As a loyal fan since 'In Trance', I still give this a thumbs up to Klaus and the gang. Their piledriving sound still makes me feel good, and hey, what more does one need when it comes to poppin on a hard rock CD? Room for some new ideas (OH, bring back the HM creativity of Lovedrive, pleez) - yes. But not a CD to miss if you still like the icons that are SCORPIONS.

3.0 out of 5 stars No pain,no gain..., December 17, 1999
By Bete Noire (Vancouver, Canada) - See all my reviews
The last good Scorpions album in the nineties,'Face the Heat'is a mixed bag of great heavy and melodic tunes we've come to expect from this legendary band and weaker tracks-especially in terms of corny lyrics-but compared to their most recent output this album really shines.After this work,the Scorpions have decided to drop their sting,it seems.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Great Scorpions CD!
