Jinx
(more) »rank: 155211by: Quarashi
: :Iceland's answer to Limp Bizkit, Korn, and Linkin Park, Quarashi's rock-rap-industrial hybrid usually makes for bad rap and even worse rock, but the mix works on Jinx for reasons unknown. The group's Fred Durst rap-metal shtick ('Stick 'Em Up,' 'Weirdo') is a bit tired, but its Beastie Boys-style eclecticism ('Mr. Jinx,' 'Baseline') flips a catchy cornucopia of horn, guitar, and xylophone samples. Certainly, when Quarashi pull out all of their experimental stops on 'Tarfur,' a percussion-heavy funk track that's recorded in Icelandic, or 'Dive In,' a techno ballad crooned by the band's jack-of-all-trades Hössi Olafsson, the results are fun. Move over Björk and ...

Woodstock 1999
(more) »rank: 152709by: Various Artists
: :Should Epic Records be blamed or thanked for splitting this massive collection into separate segments for the tie-die set and the moshing crowd? Isn't Woodstock about merging musical styles into one love fest? Well, here we have the red disc, which offers a relentless attack from metal- and punk-influenced bands such as Offspring, Lit, and Limp Bizkit. The opening track is a huge, roaring version of Korn's 'Blind,' and the disc closes with warnings about the fire that ended the festival, as the Red Hot Chili Peppers burst into Jimi Hendrix's 'Fire.' Rage Against the Machine's 'Bulls on Parade,' Buckcherry's AC/DC-influenced 'Lit Up,' ...

Meteora
(more) »rank: 208017by: Linkin Park
:Album Description:2003 follow-up to the eight-times-platinum in the US debut, Hybrid Theory, promises to be one of the biggest albums of the year. Enhanced CD packaged in a digipak. WB. :Linkin Park’s second studio effort (not counting the 2002 remix album Reanimation) overflows with glossy production values and Big Rock oomph, fully embracing the pop instincts of their Hybrid Theory debut. For many, Theory sounded inexcusably corporate, from its too-timely rap-rock sound to the long list of product endorsements included in the liner notes. Meteora will only amplify those complaints, but this album is actually truer to the band’s nature. It’s still impossible ...
