Crystal Method's Legion of Boom lives up to its title, dropping blasts of thumping samples, catchy riffs, and dependable grooves. But as with previous records like 2001's Tweekend, a chaotic, industrial darkness lurks around the edges that has little in common with the sheen of commercial dance. Many still compare Ken Jordan and Scott Kirkland to the Chemical Brothers and their Big Beat, arena-pleaser cousins. But Boom sounds more like Nitzer Ebb in a good mood, or an angst-free Front 242. The duo has invited another batch of touchy-feely artists to contribute, like those noted softies Wes Borland and John Garcia, formerly of Limp Bizkit and Kyuss, respectively. Don't think for a second they aren't all having a blast, mixing in big, dumb hair metal with abandon. Most fun of all is the boost singer/actress Milla Jovovich gives to "I Know It's You," weaving her tweaked voice through a forest of tangled keyboards. With its bombastic techno-jams, Legion of Boom definitely makes for a tasty party record. Just keep the lights down as low as the bass end if you really want to capture the mood. --Matthew Cooke

Entertaining.......2007-05-05

found the entire CD pretty good,tho the second half being more of the Method I prefer.

Crystal strikes GOLD.......2005-12-26

Now, I am familiar with a few of The Crystal Method's older works but not all of them. I've always kind of admired them from afar sort of afraid to jump right in and give them the "GO AHEAD" signal. They have always produced body rocking head bobbing beats that make you want to get up and dance or just hum along to the tune all day long. This album was the one that got me hooked.

I can play this c.d. from track #1 all the way through without skipping a song and not loosing the good vibes that I feel. Whether I'm doing housework, studying, playing video games or just getting ready for a night out on the town you cannot deny the incredible production that this album represents. I will reccommend this to anyone who wants to get into this kind of music or who just wants to know The Crystal Method more. They are on a different plane than Fatboy Slim and in my opinion, a much greater one.

Better than the Chemical Brothers, but not Fatboy Slim.......2005-12-03

I pretty much hated this C.D. the first couple times I listened to it, but the wondrous track "Born Too Slow" kept convincing me again and again to give it another chance until at last I began to appreciate the music. Most of the tunes on Legion of Boom sample rhythms or vocal excerpts, and do this in an electronica fashion that is reminiscent of the Chemical Brothers, yet is significantly more catchy and fun to listen to. One of the more prominent melodies, "The American Way", features a violin pattern, some random guy saying "Tis the American Way", a bit of rap, and a strange noise that sounds like a hoarse monkey hooting. Then there is the spectacular song "Born Too Slow", which originally drew me to this album after I heard it on a Need For Speed videogame. This track includes an electric guitar rhythm, a good set of vocals, and a couple of mystic electronic noises which add greatly to the splendor. Ever since I found about Fatboy Slim, I've fallen in love with this genre, and The Crystal Method is a vital part of it! I would highly recommend this album to all Elecrronica fans, for it has an admirable sense of beat and the band is good at sampling.

TCM: LOB.......2005-11-12

The negative reviews of LOB are encouraging me to pick up all other TCM records that I don't have.

I remember liking whatever TCM song I heard on the radio. When I came across Legion of Boom at my local public library... yes, my public library, I borrowed the CD and loved it from first listen. "American Way" is the only song I'm ever tempted to skip over...

I think this is an excellent record.

only for TCM diehards.......2005-09-11

The reviews for this album are all over the spectrum. But here's the deal-LOB is an attempt to appeal to a broader audience. "Born Too Slow" is a made for MTV 3 minute pop song with hard rock overtones. "American Way", while a decent track in its own right, is as much hip hop as anything. Those of you that are looking for the same sound you got on Vegas and Tweekend will find it with "Acetone", "Bound Too Long" and to a less extent "Realizer."

When I listen to Vegas, I get the sense that TCM worked really hard with a medium budget to produce some groundbreaking music.

Tweekend is a slightly different style, but it still has plenty of aural complexity and exhibits good attention to detail. And while not as novel as Vegas, it is an excellent album.

LOB is spotty-some songs seem like the TCM of old, but without quite the same level of effort. In general the songs that have the same style as the first two albums contain fewer sonic textures and are less complex, and thus for me, less satisfying to listen to again and again. Some songs are just blatant attempts to make TCM appeal to a broader range of listeners, even at the expense of releasing mediocre material. I hope the lukewarm reception LOB has gotten will persuade TCM to go back to basics and provide us with tracks that really demonstrate how creative they can be. I don't need every album to sound like Vegas, but I expect every album to have solidly crafted tracks from start to finish.

Summary: LOB is only for those that are willing to pay for an entire TCM album to obtain 2 or 3 worthwhile tracks.

Not the same.......2006-08-05

My daughter (now 4) grew up with the Australia version of the Hi-5 band. However, when looking back now, they prefer the US version more. Still entertaining, they just don't know the songs as well as the US ones. My son (2 1/2) doesn't care, he will jump and dance to anything!

Kids Music That Doesn't Annoy!.......2004-01-19

(Review as translated by Ella's dad) I'm 18 months old and love music, Hi5 are one of the very few children's groups that don't talk down to me. The style is bubble gum pop, not nursery ryhmes or overly simplistic la la and I love dancing to it, doing the actions and learning to clap in time.
Even my Mum and Dad (who are into stuff like Pearl Jam, The Vines, silverchair etc...) can listen to it without pulling their hair out and it saves their sanity on long drives up the coast.
This is only one of several of their albums and, like the Wiggles,there are a few videos/DVDs around too.
The music is skewed towards both girls and boys, with 3 girls and 2 guys in the group who sing individually and also as a group on different tracks. There are kareoke tracks at the end of the CD, which will be fun when I'm older, but for now this CD makes me happy and even seems to be teaching me something (hopefully not that Britanny Spears qualifies as decent music).

The Wonderful Wizards of Dub.......2000-03-31

Initially sold to me as "big beat", Boom Boom Satellites (named after a Sigue Sigue Sputnik track, apparently) are closer to sonic terrorists than anything to do with record label Skint's roster. Live drummer, guitarist (and part-time sample magician) and keyboards doesn't really tell half the story about just how loud they can be. The second CD in this album is a bunch of remixes, the best of which (and probably the best thing they've ever done) is the Wizard of Dub remix by the Dons of Quixote - searing black metal guitar riff over pounding beats and samples. Nothing cerebral, just wonderful, ear-bleeding fun.

BASS for only the Brave !!.......2002-07-04

This cd is a definite must for the BassHeads out there. It's a 2-disc compilation of some of the popular music stylists. But, be warned. The cd, while broken down into two, definite types of bass music, tends to lack direction. The flow is choppy and isn't smooth. If the producers had laid the track list differently, the cd might be more enjoyable. If you don't mind going from fast, to slow, to easy, back to fast, then to easy, and waaaay slow (you get the picture), this is the cd for you Bass heads.

brother bass.......2002-05-09

MAXIMUM BOOM VOL. 3 IS THE BEST BASS ALBUM NEXT TO THE PREVIOUS MAXIMUM BOOM ALBUMS. I'M A TRUE BASSHEAD. MY FAVORITE SONGS ON THE ALBUM IS VOCODER BASS, NU JACK, BELOW ZERO, NUMBERS, RICOCHET, QUAD INFINITUM, TRIPPIN ON THA BASS, AND SMOOTH N' LO. I LOVE BASS BECAUSE I CAN SING. I HAVE A VERY DEEP VOICE AND I SING BASS/BARITONE AND SOMETIMES WHEN I LISTEN TO THIS ALBUM, I COPY THE BASS TONES THAT'S BEING PUT OUT. YO, THIS MIAMI BASS GAME IS REAL AND I RECOMMEND ANYONE WHO LOVES THE MIAMI BASS, AS WELL AS THE DIRTY SOUTH BASS, TO BUY THIS ALBUM. I'LL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO THE RELEASE OF MAXIMUM BOOM VOL. 6. I LOVE THE SOUTH. MAN, THIS BASS GAME IS REAL!!!!

Ever been trying to have the best bass tunes around....well look no further because Max. has your eardrums covered. For BASS and a variety buy Maximum Boom For Your System Vol.3
