With The Sinister Urge, Rob Zombie again wraps his rasp around a thunderous blend of heavy grooves powered by human and electronic drums. Creepy touches of theremin and keyboards add goth accents, while the clever arrangements adorn melodies that are irresistibly catchy yet plenty aggressive. The lyrics are set firmly in a horror realm; with titles such as "House of 1000 Corpses" and "Scum of the Earth," one wouldn't anticipate tender love songs. Zombie scatters about sound bites from monster movies for good measure--an apt touch, but with the album clocking in at less than 40 minutes, there's a bit too much filler. Still, with highlights such as "Bring Her Down" with its spine- tingling orchestration, the hard-driving "Dead Girl Superstar" (featuring Slayer guitarist Kerry King), and "Feel So Numb," Zombie generates much genuine excitement. --Gail Flug

3.0 out of 5 stars What to expect from the Clean Version, January 17, 2003

By	Gabriel Saraco (Wantagh, NY United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is an interesting Edited CD, mainly because none of the actual lyrics have been edited. There wasn't originally any cursing on this CD to begin with (except for a brief sample that says "shake your...proper," which has been left in). There WAS originally some nudity in the packaging, which has been blurred out in this version.

So the only actual editing in this CD takes place in the packaging. This seems really odd... but remember, the Parental Advisory labels read "Explicit CONTENT," not "Explicit Lyrics" - so it kind of makes sense.

By	"gorillazfan249" (Maysville, KY) - See all my reviews

I didn't know how good this was going to be, but when I popped it in to my CD player, I was glad I bought it. I love it so much. It starts out hard and never really quits. i love this kind of music and I think it is a must-have for anyone.
