Very cool, very unusual March 25, 2002 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I found this album by accident at my local Sam Goody. It had one of my favorite artist's (Amy Brown) artwork all over it and one of my favorite bands (Rasputina) on it so I thought I'd give it a try. It is kind of difficult to describe this album at all. If you've ever listened to a Rasputina album then you have a general idea of what the songs on here are like. They all have a whimsical sort of feel to them, which is what I think they were going for. Some are soft and I would liken them to the soundtrack to a fantasy world that is full of bright colors and gentle faeries and the like. Some are full of metal and heavy techno influences but also have a sweet or melancholy quality to them. If these things do not attract you, but you are an Amy Brown fan, it may be worth it just for the booklet inside, which is about 13 or so illustrations by her accompanied by tiny little one or two paragraph stories written by Melora Creeger (singer of Rasputina) that are inspired by each of the songs and written in her familiar style. If you can find this CD and all of that sounds good to you I highly recommend it.
Worthwhile buy- maybe even twice March 19, 2004 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I recieved this cd as a gift over a year ago, and I still absolutely love it. I have a feeling it was bought for me because I was a Rasputina fan with nothing left to buy, (ha-ha) however the rest of the songs on this c.d. are just as epic and lovelyIt's absolutely beautiful in it's entirety. The most outstanding songs are "Hunter's Kiss" "Purr la Perla" and my ABSOLUTE favorite "O What a Dream it Was" by Future Bible Heroes. My cd is already starting to skip (from repetitious play) and- now this should tell you something- Im thinking of obtaining a REPLACEMENT copy! so yes nothing but glowing reviews for this cd.
Don't buy this album December 27, 2005 3 out of 20 found this review helpful
One word, terrible. I asked for Nosferatu's Rise (awesome) for christmas and my mom saw this album under the "users who bought this album also bought" category. Save yourself the agravation and pass this one. I feel like Ive been robbed because I put the time into listening to it. There are only two good songs on the album and one of them is all but ruined due to shabby recording quality. The rest either are ruined due to the recording quality, or have terrible lyrics and crappy music, or usualy both. Hunter's kiss is sung in the first person from the perspective of a deer that has just been shot. Stupid stupid stupid. If you want an album like this except better in every way buy the soundtrack to the Witchblade comics. You won't miss out on anything if you dont read them as I dont and still thought it was awesome. Common, Peter Steele is on it.
Stop Run and Find this CD!!! Dance or just listen April 10, 2002 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I love this cd!! I bought it online from Hottopic.com because of Rasputina but it turns out that my favorite track is #5 by a band I've never even heard of!! To describe Bitstream Dreams "Impossible Gardens" is hard. Very etheareal and sensual almost like a slow erotic dance. Miranda Sex Garden has a really nice song on here too. I'm happy that I purchased this cd!!!
Not as great as the cover looks. August 29, 2003 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
What first got my attention was the cover, and that Rasputina put it together. I like Rasputina but the other artists really weren't that great to me,nor are the songs.(Although Miranda Sex Garden is fairly good.)If your a Rasputina fan, I would definantly check out the other artists first to see if you like them. I know I won't make judgements on cd cover art anymore.
