Blue Man Group |

This is undoubtedly one of
the coolest cds I've ever heard. Although the style is nothing like anything
I really listen to, the Blue Man Group CD is just captivating. If anyone
has ever seen them perform either live or on TV, listening to the CD gives
the same kind of feeling. You're not really sure what's going on, but
you like it anyway. The Complex has a slew of guest musicians including
Dave Matthews, Tracy Bonham, Peter Moore and Josh Haden to name a few.
The Blue Man Group uses unconventional instruments and melodies to put
their signature on The Complex. It goes without saying that this album
defies classification. It is definitely not a metal album but worth it
for those metalheads who would like to expand their horizons. I guess
if you wanted to try and classify it, you could combine ethnic Hungarian
music with funk, jazz, ambient, and rock. There is no way to describe
this album except for by its title alone, "The Complex.
