2 out of 5 stars Where's the growth?   July 3, 2008

This Album is OK and would otherwise deserve 3 stars, but I felt like I had to back it down to 2; I was excited to see a new album and thought wow it will be interesting to see how the 52's incorporate some flavors from today into their music. Sadly I did not hear anything new. It's like this album is a bunch of tracks they did back in the 80's that never made the album so they threw them all together and released them today....

If you're a fan, you need to own this CD. It's pure fun! Hard to sit still when you're listening to it - just what we have come to expect from the B-52's!

Glad to have these folks back. Lots of good sounds, but the CD was just missing that extra something to put it up to the 4 or 5 stars. The voices still are on track. The sound was missing some high end treble to me... or maybe my 43 year old ears are off.

This is the best B-52s in years.....reminds me of their first works. Very upbeat, better than most music coming out at this time.

Wow. If there's such a thing as a fountain of youth, the B-52s have found it. This album perfectly exhibits the ideal attitude for a twisted world like ours. Although their last release was almost 2 decades ago, this album is far from a hacked-up reunion effort. This is the real deal. Like them or not, the B-52s are fun, fabulous, and wicked smart, with a dead-on philosophy on the current state of things. If it weren't for a few awkward moments in songs like Eyes Wide Open and Love in the Year 3000, this would be a 5-star album. The first track cuts to the core like a Ginsu knife (remember those?), Ultraviolet is nothing short of ultra-fabulous, and Juliet of the Spirits may just be one of the finest songs of the decade. Bravo, guys and gals... let's keep this party going!
