Free Music Review: Weak Material Worsened Only By Poor Sound Production
Hit: 1 Stars
I raged with Living Color and they created the material that allowed me to do that. After 10 years, I turn them on again to find a missed attempt at creative expression, an off-the-mark CD designed to strike chords that the band apparently can no longer touch.A disappointing outing that the band undoubtedly tried to cover up through applying a tinny, garage sound to the overall production. The album sounds like it was generated in someone's bathroom. If I had originally wanted to listen to the messages the band wanted to inbibe in the album--assuming that there really are any such messages in an album with 2 covers considering the depth and breadth of experience this band has--all such desire evaporated as I tested my home sound sytem to make sure that it hadn't malfunctioned with the playing of this CD. Not so--evidently Living Color was looking for something "fresh" with this sound approach--in reality, it was stale and took the edge off of the biting guitars, thumping drums and raucous lyrics I expected to hear.
A message to Living Color--tell me that you haven't lost that craeativity, that ability to mix music with message, funk with hard rock. Better yet, sweep this garbage under the rug and try again--just don't take 10 years this time, ok?
