I'm always looking for different types of shampoos/conditioners every few months and somehow ran into this one. I can't say it made my hair smoother or shinier, but it did help me de-tangle my hair... so it pretty much worked like any other cheap conditioner. Very nice smell though.  Rise Above: 24 Black Flag Songs to Benefit the West Memphis Three $11.98 Okay, not everybody is in agreement about the West Memphis Three. I don't see one iota of actual evidence that proves they're guilty. That said, I'm here to review the music on this CD, not go on about my opinon. Black Flag was of course a great band for a good 5 or 6 years. Their last material was dire (witness 'Annihilate This Week'; nothing can make that song good folks, not to my ears). The best covers on here partly belong to Henry Rollins himself, he of the classic Damaged. Never mind his self-congratulatory liners, when given the right material, he's awesome here. My War in particular is fantastic, maybe better than the original; the version of Slip it In with Inger Lorre of the Nymphs is also fantastic, with the lyrics ringing clearer than ever before in their meaning. Rise Above, with Chuck D. (who I don't hear on it, except the intro!) is incredible, and best of all, is the great Keith Morris, of both Circle Jerks fame (Group Sex being the best hardcore punk album ever made), and also the original singer of Black Flag, on their finest moment, the Nervous Breakdown E.P. His re-recording of Nervous Breakdown is just F-----g INCREDIBLE. Worth it for that alone. The others? Well, Police Story by Ice-T is quite good, surprisngly for me (never a fan of his), and um... there's not much else, which is why I gave this three stars. Lemmy's version of Thirsty and Miserable is fair, and of course all Motorhead completists must have this I guess. Ryan Adam's Nervous Breakdown ("bonus track" --???) is nowhere near Keith Morris's, but it's fair. The lyrics of Jealous Again are much clearer her as done by Nick Oliveri, but it's not a great version; I'll take the Everything Went Black version by Dez as the best one. Most of these covers aren't that good, I give it three stars for the few truly incredible ones. Interesting to hear Hank Williams III doing No values, but not any good either. Iggy Pop tops them all in terms of sheer awfulness with his version of Fix Me, which has to be heard in all completion to see what a joke it, like he, is. Pathetic. That all said, the songs on here that ARE done well are SO great, it's worth having if you're a Black Flag fan at all. And if you believe they're innocent, well, there ya go... I've definitely heard Worse benefit albums! By FAR. |
