The Diplo remix of Gold Lion on this album is tooooooooooooo tight. Really, so good. Well worth the $$.

4 out of 5 stars Gold Lion.......2006-03-28

First single off the new album "Show Your Bones" is amazing. Guitars and vocals are a bit more produced than "Fever to Tell," but they still maintain that edgy YYY sound. The two remixes by Diplo and Nick Zinner make this a great purchase for any fan as well!

Big Dumb Face has created a big, dumb record--intentionally so. Limp Bizkit guitarist Wes Borland's side project is so self-indulgent it's almost endearing. Almost. From the GWAR-meets-Cannibal Corpse death-metal attack of "Burgalveist" to the "Bonanza"-theme feel of "Duke Lion" to the Martian-style vocals of "Kali is the Sweet Hog," Borland, who apparently plays all the CD's instruments, is goofy rather than clever. While vaguely reminiscent of a side project from Primus bassist/musical genius Les Claypool or something from Mr. Bungle, Big Dumb Face lacks stellar musicianship or redeeming moments of brilliance or true humor. Yet it's also quite clear Borland intends this to be merely an amusing, wacked-out aural freak-out--the disc ends with a nearly 20-minute oddball opus featuring lengthy moments of nothing but doors opening or footsteps, and, at minute 11, a really bad drum solo. While Bizkit fans may eat this up, to quote Spinal Tap, "There's a fine line between clever and stupid," and Big Dumb Face falls squarely on the stupid side. --Katherine Turman

What else is there to say.


This album is a joke. The only reason Wes put this out was to prove a point:

If I drop a duece into a cd case and put my name on it, it will sell.

And well the points been prov'n

I got this CD and it is pure sweetness. If you go to the BigDumbFace sight in interviews and read what guitar world said in Wes's 60 minutes, that really hits the nail on the head. There are so many layers to this CD that it is like a music supercomputer program ready to be sprang on the unsuspecting public. In a nutshell, there are three types of songs on here-insane awesome and strangely enough non-redudntant death metal that lyrically pokes fun at the "im more advanced than anyone else right now" mentality that death metal bands have, rock electronic-new wave songs, straight up new wave songs, and country tinged songs. Organ Splitter and Burglaveist boast head pounding double bass and guitar riffs that are pretty cool but masked under synths of some sorts. The song structures and the individual parts themselves are really cool and really different compared to the 99.9% of death metal that is completely stupid and stale. The more new-wave-y songs like Might P***s lazer and Kali is the Sweethog are really funny lyrically and are and have lots of cool sonic goodies and ear candy. Every song on this CD is really good, and more importantly, really different from one another. I love how Wes just takes jab after jab at the three big things today-Death Meta, New Wave, and Country. Rebel is such a great stab at the "ya'll wanna faight?" mentality that certian southereners have that have unfortunately become the sterotype of the southern man, but Wes isn't outright calling all southerners renecks-after all, him and the rest of LB are from the south.

and by the way, Wes (along with Josh Freese on drums ill betcha a squillion dollars its him behind the kid) recorded a new Big Dumb Face song last last year that is absolutely incredible. It is called Darkness Becomes and is available in one of the 13 or so news posts on his Wes.Borland.net but NOT ON THIS CD OR ANY OTHER CD OUT THERE-IT IS AVAILABLE AS LEGAL AS WELL AS FREE DOWNLOAD ONLY!!!

DOWNLOAD IT!!!!!1 holy hell!!! This song is an 8 minute speed metal freakout with arguably Wes's best playing it. You get it all in that song-the awesome acoustic opener, the huge monsterous thrash metal riffs, this insane and unstable solo, more insane riffs, a bass breakdown, a piano/hooror movie sample breakdown, another insane solo that is almost Petrucci-like and has Wes going nuts with shred-arpeggios and ends in a brilliant whammy bar/note bend that is such an incredibly climactic ending to the solo.(to offset the first solo that resembles faux satanic metal weiners slayer). Then it goes back into the thrash metal and groove metal riffs to finish the song off. It is without a doubt one of the top 5 best songs in Thrash metal (even tho Wes's vox are pro-toolsed way low to make fun of/imitate the death metal voice) and if you are the kind of person who can listen to a song way beyond the singing like myself then youll love it.

All in all, BDF is awesome insane headphone music that makes fun of every lame genre that is big today (except whatever you would classify Outkast's "hey ya" as, or then again, maybe it does that too in Kali is the Sweethod. hmmm) This is great funny music that is made really well and the CD is REALLY diverse. None of the songs sound like repeats of prior or upcoming ones and it is just sweet.

5 out of 5 stars Beautiful!!!!beautifully weird! lol.......2005-06-30

(you have to be a wes fan to like this album)
being a limp bizkit fan, and a wes borland fan i was expecting this album to be very heavy, and with human vocals (lol) < it is without a doubt a very weird album, but it was only meant to be a joke album.
I can not recomend this album to anyone unless you are a wes borland fan.
this CD takes a very long time to grow on you.
the vocals in this cd are very unusual because wes borland sings with a weird alien like voice throughout the album.
this CD is like watching a cheezy sciencefiction movie on tv, but it's more of an artistic/experimental album.
the best song on this cd is "right in here" because it's the first song on the CD that actually has limp bizkit like guitar.
i was realy expecting a "Boiler"(

5 out of 5 stars Strangely Wonderful.......2005-02-19

I can never seem to recommend this ablum to people without sounding really, really stupid. Which is truly sad, because this album deserves to be listened to. To me, it is without a doubt, one of the most enjoyable album's I've ever heard. I never really enjoyed limp bizkit, other than their early stage performances, I just can't seem to get into the whole, rap-metal thing. I think it's sad that many people who wanted to hear this album, desired to do so because of their admiration for limp bizkit, with is almost a guarantee they would hate it. This is more for people who enjoy music that requires a basic knowledge of how music is created, and can appreciate not only the music as a whole, but also each individual part that is required to create it. It is definitely strange, and if you try to take it too seriously you will, without a doubt, be completely lost to it's purpose. Some will say what purpose could this cd possibly have? To that I could have only one answer - to entertain - and it should be the answer to that question when asked about any cd, but sadly that can no longer be said about much of todays music, that is clearly only created to make a profit. I don't necessairly have a problem with music created for profit, some of it still has the side effect of being entertaining, I just think it's sad that a cd like Duke Lion Fights The Terror! will go so largely unappreciated and it's pure entertainment value will be unrecognized to the majority of the world.

5 out of 5 stars This album is very.... Borland........2005-02-04

It's nice to see Wes come out with perhaps one of my favorite albums of all time. Wes may not be the best guitarist around, but he is one of the few guitarists with 'natural talent' per se. A real artist -- Not technical, just amazingly creative, and that's what makes him so awesome and respectable. Limp Bizkit may have been a bad band, but Borland stood out and made them worthwhile.

This album seems to have been inspired by Ween, and I'm sure Wes wouldn't deny that. It's different, though -- It's unique, and not an imitation. It's really a nice hurrah for the 'fun' genre of music.

Varying from novelty deathmetal tracks that are sexual innuendo's, and munchkin-voiced experimental tracks with witty, and sometimes silly lyrics, there's really nothing about this album to dislike.

Of course, the main reason I adore this album is because it's weird -- Weird in a lovable, giggly, creative way. As 'dumb' as this album may be, it's really artsy when you come down to it!

Of course, for all the reasons I love this CD, there's someone whom hates the CD for all those same reasons. Some people don't like things to be too unfamiliar, and while that's understandable, they're also the same people whom rate down this album.

I digress, though -- To each their own, right? If you like to have fun in a childish, lighthearted way, this album will probably have a special spot in your CD collection.

      Lion, the band perhaps best known for performing the theme song to The Transformers: The Movie - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack, seemed to be operating on cruise control with their third album, 1989's Trouble in Angel City. It's a decent enough hard rock/heavy metal album, but there's not really anything going on here that you couldn't hear on the band's previous album Dangerous Attraction (Cd). I wasn't expecting anything revolutionary, but there should be something about each individual album that stands out. Look at what Dokken (probably the closest comparison to Lion's style) was releasing at the time. Tooth and Nail and Under Lock and Key were noticeably different albums, each with its own unique character. I just don't see that with Trouble in Angel City.

      I hate to sound like I'm trashing the album, since it is a perfectly good release. Kal Swan's vocals are solid, and Doug Aldrich's guitar work is impressive as always. I just wish they could have gotten a bit more creative.

      Trouble in Angel City was the final release by Swan, Aldrich, & company as Lion. The guys would later return as the more straightforward hard rock band Bad Moon Rising.

      It would be nice if the band/label/powers-that-be could reissue this album. The original version is as hard to find as it is expensive, meaning some of us have had to resort to, shall we say, "less than authentic" versions in order to hear the album.
