Title: An island of hope in a sea of musical diarrhea Review: One can only hope that it won't be another 12 years between "Strays" and the next release from JA. Where they were one mighty alt-rock gods, they are now giving notice to all the... "nu-metal" vets like Bizkit and Linkin that there is a better way to rock. There is more to music than just attitude, although Ferell & company have plenty to go 'round.From start to finish this is a tight disc. "Just Because" is guaranteed to get you moving, "Price" runs the gamut from high to low and the most underrated track on the disc is the title track "Strays". It slowly builds before delivering a sonic boom."Strays" shares the boom and crash of "Nothing's Shocking" but the arty side of "Ritual" makes it's presence felt from time to time. This should be on your "Have to get right now!!!!" list if you have even a passing interest in JA. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Lightweight fluff, self-promoting Review: Almost against my better judgment I bought this book in electronic form from Amazon. Do NOT be misled by the five star ratings (written by Ferrazzi pals?). The book is fluff. It is all Ferrazzi, all the time. Frankly despite all his unseemly horn-blowing, I still don't know what he ever accomplished that should impress me.Bottom line: save your cash. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Amazingly Soothing! Review: I absolutely love this album. I use it in my Montessori classroom to help children fall asleep at nap time and it works like magic. The slow falling and rising help bring about a calm state of mind and body! Breathing automatically becomes slower and deeper, facilitating rest and renewal. All the cares of the morning slip away. Peaceful and soothing for everyone. I literally wore out a CD playing it every day and bought a new one. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: Yeah, bad idea... Review: I love Tool, they are by far my favorite band. After buying and liking the string tribute I thought this albumn might be a good idea. Nope. This albumn just plain ... While I support the idea of covering Tool's music I don't support people who have little musical talent trying to do so. I'm serious, some of the songs made me laugh out loud. Aenima was particulary horrid. Most of the others wern't too far off either. The rendition of Stinkfist is acceptable, I liked hearing a female voice covering Maynard. Other than this song and perhaps Prison Sex the rest bite. So save your money, if you are rabid tool fan like me you will most likely not appreciate the desecration of their music.
