Buckcherry


Buckcherry restored my faith in good old fashion RNR!. I wore out my first 2 copies and am on my third.


hear the groundwork being laid for their future success with this collection of impactful music
Who can forget the jarring opening riffs out the balls-to-the wall party anthem "Lit Up?" I still turn the radio up every time this one kicks off on the radio. The Good
Despite the fact this release is an obvious cash-in, it's still the album that put Buckcherry on the map and allowed them a little bit of recognition for a while. "Crushed" is also just as in-your-face and raw as it's predecessor. "Check Your Head" starts off like one of those poignant ballads with acoustic guitars under smooth vocals. The pace picks up as vocalist Josh Todd gets into how your life could be worse.

Buckcherry infuses some bluesy tones and virtuoso style soloing into "Dirty Mind. " When this album came out back in 1999, the rock power ballad was pretty much dead. "For the Movies" took me right back to that time with it's slow, emotional verses, and powerful choruses. Even though the lyrical content has been done ad nauseam, the musical arrangement still moves me. "Borderline" also has a blues swagger to it that compliments Todd's cock-sure delivery perfectly. Guitarist Keith Nelson puts his wah-wah pedal to good use on "Get Back. "

The bonus DVD included gives you all of Buckcherry's videos that were released for the album; "Lit Up," "For the Movies," "Check Your Head," and "Dead Again. " In addition to that, three live performances from the Viper Room, as well as an alternate version of "For the Movies. " But that's not all. 2 unreleased audio tracks, "Late Nights in Voodoo" and "Flashback 69," and a live version of "Lit Up" from Woodstock '99 are also included.

The Bad
And for the third and final time. . . it's a cash in. The band probably won't see a dime.

The Verdict
Buckcherry's debut is a long way from the melodic and smoothed over sounds of their latest album 15, but still a piece of their hard rock history. Even though the group has come a long way from their humble beginnings, you can still hear the groundwork being laid for their future success with this collection of impactful music.


buckcherry
this album is amust for any buckerry fan and the dvds are an added bonus FANTASTIC.


buckcherry 1st reissue
Packaging is pretty much the same, my only complaint is that they should have put some bonus tracks on the cd, there's a couple on the dvd. I love these guys, great reissue with a dvd If you have the first album already you'll still want this for the dvd, which has there video's + some live stuff.
