Wow!
| This 2 disc set has a great collection of songs. I love it! I think the second disc would have to be my favorite CD out of the set, but no matter what, you're not going to regret this purchase :) |

Maniac Solid Album
|
Globe has always been a strong driving force in Japanese POP culture....they are responsible for forming and influencing some of the biggest POP names in Japanese music. With the legendary TK fronting this band, along with Keiko's amazing vocals through tone and interpretation, and Marc's eccentric flair, rapping and language abilities, this group is just solid. I think many people were worried after they released their Lights and Lights 2 albums. Many lost faith in this group. Though they wre still releasing some great singles, the albums were short and lacked that special uniqueness that made Globe so special. I wasn;t too bothered. A few good songs on a CD was enough to keep me a believer. Keiko's voice is so mesmerizing and unique. She can convey a lot in the tone of her voice....and their songs, usually always written by TK, are usually very interesting and entertaining. If you liked Globe's older stuff, pre-Lights CDs, then you'll surely love this album. Listen to it a few times, and I am sure you will get addicted to various songs. In my opinion, Globe has found the middle ground between POP, trance, rock, and mainstream....while still being creative. I enjoyed this CD when I first got it, but have to admit I enjoy it more now after now hearing it for a few months. Which is whyy I felt compelled to write this review. This is a great value --1 album, 2 CDs, great music. I only hated one track, Appreciate, which is all in English, with Keiko talking....her accent is not very good, there is only one real beat throughout the song....I think of it as an intermission break...usually I fast forward past this track. Other than that, a real score!! |

Maniac's just as Great as any other Globe album!
Maniac's just as Great as any other Globe album!
| Given Globes previous release habits, I was REALLY surprised to find out that this album was going to be released so soon after Globe 2. After listening to it, though, it kind of makes sense. In a way, this album is to Globe 2 what Lights 2 was to Lights. But then, you cant really name the album Globe 2 2 =P. What I mean by that is the songs on here sound very much like theyre in the same vein as the ones on Globe 2, just that theyre, for the most part, toned down a bit. Theyre not quite as dreamlike as the ones on Lights 2, but theyre quieter, more contemplative. You can also feel TKs work a lot more on this album, especially on Please Dont Give Up. With the exception of a gew songs, though, it seems like Globe also went even more into their original sound than they did on Globe 2, which I enjoyed a lot. One thing that bothered me, though, was that the preview MV for Soldier posted on their website must have been for a single version or something, because the part of the song that was posted isnt on this version at all. I was also taken back a little bit by Appreciate, a sort of beat-nick meets techno track that was all in English. When I saw the English in the lyrics book, I assumed Marc would be singing it, but its Keiko. And even Keiko knows shes not the best at English; I would have preferred Marc on this track. As for the second disc, I LOVE the band versions of Judgment and Lost. If Globe decided to pursue that sound on future works, I certainly wouldnt complain. To me, these versions are even better than their originals. The rest of the second disc was sort of a toss-up for me since I had 4 of the songs already from Cyber X, KCO, and Experience. For those without these albums, though, they certainly picked great songs to feature. I kind of wish they would have put the full version of Cosmic Dream on, but thats ok. The TK tracks on here are particularly dream-like in quality, especially To Solid Snake and it kind of caught me off guard. Favorites (from the original album) were Please Dont Give Up (in this song, TK does an interesting thing by providing the background instruments in the first chorus as orchestral instruments, then changing to electric guitar the second time around), Why Why Tell Me Why, Orbit, Tokyo, and Simplove. |
