	METALEATER.COM - Album Reviews - Kick Axe - Kick Axe IV
		KICK AXE is arguably one of Canada's finest hard rock acts from the 80's era.
		Having been a KICK AXE fan in the '80s, I remember being somewhat disappointed when they disbanded, and I had always hoped that there would be some sort of a reunion at some point.
		However, the rest of the album is pretty much a lot of the same kind of slow to mid-paced average-sounding material, which really did not grab me as much as the other songs.

	Kick out the Jams - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kick Out the Jams was the first album by Detroit protopunkers MC5, released in 1969.
		Its title track was covered by The Presidents of the United States on their eponymous debut album in 1995, and by Rage Against the Machine on their album Renegades (2000) The song was also covered by Jeff Buckley and released on his post humous Legacy Edition of Grace on the bonus CD of unreleased song.
		The album, along with fellow Detroit band the Stooges' first two albums, was so ahead of its time that it could not be classified under any genre until after the punk movement traced its lineage back to it.

	METALLIAN - Kick Axe
		The album, replacing singer George Criston with Gary Langen who is bassist Victor's brother, sounds closer to Billy Squier circa the Don't Say No album than a bonafide heavy metal outing.
		In general, the new Kick Axe album has no bad songs, but could have benefited from a culling of tracks from the album's fourteen to ten and a slightly more toned guitar sound.
		The album targets the sound espoused by the softer side of Iron Maiden, Queensrÿche, Billy Squier and Rush and, the title track and album's name notwithstanding, pours over songs with a heavy rock bent.

	MC5: Kick out the Jams - PopMatters Music Review
		Kick out the Jams is eight songs, comprising 40 minutes that embody all that was the late 1960s: Rebellion, anarchy, psychedelia, sex, drugs, and of course aggressive rock 'n' roll.
		The song is somewhat incongruent with the rest of the album, but it is an appropriate reminder of what the MC5 and many of their contemporaries were all about: expansion of the mind through the power of music.
		It is one of those rare albums that captured the essence of a moment; a set of songs meant to be played loud and proud.

	Amazon.co.uk: Kick: Music: INXS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
		The rest of Kick, especially the strutting "Guns in the Sky" and the groovy "Wild Life", is of similar quality; all of it is marked by the band's Stones-y guitars and angular, funk-tinged rhythms.
		Okay, this album's omnipresence (it produced no less than five charting singles out of 12 songs) on radio and television for over a year and a half--alongside singer Michael Hutchence's mass media anointment as THE premier rock and roll sex symbol of the late '80s--makes it difficult to hear KICK as simply an album.
		INXS never seemed to be able to reproduce the quality of "Kick" on later albums, but this record remains one of the high points of commercial rock music from the 1980's.

		The album was a platinum seller, but marked a change in the Zeppelin sound as straightforward, guitar-based jams such as "Nobody's Fault But Mine" had replaced the intricate arrangements of previous albums.
		The soundtrack album of the film had some songs missing and some added compared to the film, and some songs are different cuts from the three nights the band performed at Madison Square Garden.
		The soundtrack is not generally considered a great live album, but it would remain the only official live document of the band until the eventual release of the BBC Sessions in 1997.

	Metal News - Kick Axe To Release First Album Since 1986 ( Metal Underground . com )
		Kick Axe, one of the best and most successful heavy rock bands to burst out of Canada in the 1980s, returns with "Kick Axe IV," their first album of new material in 18 years.
		Kick Axe was still not entirely happy with its lineup, and national advertisements resulted in Milwaukee native George Criston earning the lead vocalist slot, and he relocated to Vancouver in 1982.
		Awareness of Kick Axe never waned: the first two albums were reissued on CD to brisk sales and positive reviews; copies of 'Rock The World' have sold on eBay for $150 (U.S. dollars); and several fan-created web sites have been started, including one in the Czech Republic (www.kickaxe.wz.cz).

	Saigon Kick
		Saigon Kick's debut album is the first showcase of the considerable songwriting skills of Jason Bieler, distinctive vocal range of Matt Kramer, powerful riffs, tight rhythm section, harmonies, and musical diversity.
		The album begins with the tribal rhythms of the "Intro" which leads into the heavy, riff and synth driven "Russian Girl", an infectious number with good bass work in the chorus and passionate lyrics, followed by "Killing Ground", a heavy but somewhat generic and stale riff-rocker.
		Elsewhere, the chorus of "Nearer" is a nice anthemic breather to close the album off on, and the hard pop of "Solitary Jerk" has a cool refrain with interesting keyboard embellishments.

	CD Review: Kick Axe - IV (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
		Kick Axe 2004 is very melodic hard rock with no weak points, catchy guitar riffs and melodies, the production is great, sound is impressive.
		To compare Kick Axe 2004 with previous three albums I think this album is on the same quality level as 1984 "Vices".
		This album is NOT a paltry stab at former glory as most bands might try to pull off with girl-chasing hooks, party party ditties, meaningless drivel, 4/4 timing, drum synth, 50% power ballad content, filler filler filler and a 5-string guitar...

	The Kick -- Press (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
		Next up comes the band's radio single "North Is Up", a song that reveals the rock side of the Kick and also gives a glimpse at the influence that bands like Pearl Jam had on the band.
		The Kick show of some of their punk rock roots as well, with an explosive cover of the Dead Boys song "Sonic Reducer".
		I look forward to hearing more from the Kick in the future, but until then I expect this album to be in heavy rotation for many days to come.

	The Daily Vault Album Reviews : Kick Out The Jams
		Originally released in 1969, "this album of songs is a microcosm of the times that spawned it," according to singer Rob Tyner.
		The band kicks, with a violently loud psychedelic assault that is primal metal thunder with a dash of avant-jazz, highlighted by the distorted dual guitar madness of Wayne Kramer and Fred "Sonic" Smith.
		Kick Out The Jams is an important historical document, since the MC5 were also alleged inspirations for many punk combos.

		The first album by the 90's incarnation of Crimson was Thrak, which featured the talents of Robert Fripp and Adrian Belew on guitars, Trey Gunn and Tony Levin on stick and Bill Bruford and Pat Mastelotto on drums.
		Keeping with the sci-fi bent of the first album, "Hope" is sort of a rock opera sung by a laser lighthouse keeper, the "loneliest creature in the universe" because he's the last left of his race after an interplanetary war.
		The Organisation album is even more rare than the first two Kraftwek albums, which are usually seen as a double LP repackage with a cover photo of an oscilloscope display.

		EvilSponge: Album: The Kick and the Snare by The Deathray Davies
		The Kick and the Snare begins with The Fall Fashions, which is filled with the jangly guitars and garage-y rhythm that characterize The Deathray Davies' music.
		Some of the combination may be due to the time the band took producing this album, which gives it a warm cohesive tone.

	The Daily Vault Album Reviews : Kick
		While INXS had made a name for themselves in the States prior to the release of this album, it was Kick that catapaulted them into superstardom -- and over a decade later, it's still very tasty.
		It also proved to be the beginning of the end of the glory days for the band; their follow-up release X would only spawn one top 10 hit in "Suicide Blonde," and their fates continued to spiral downward from there -- in some cases, undeservedly so.
		It's truly a shame that INXS was never able to match the success they enjoyed with Kick -- there's a good reason why this album is considered the best of their career, and is definitely worth investing in.

	White Rose Movement - Kick : album review
		Both Deborah Carne and Speed lack the "fuck-you" arrogance in their delivery, leaving a pair of eighties new-wave refugees rescued from the pound but then left to fend for themselves in the cruel naughties, without even a new coat to protect them from the cold.
		And remember, a Human League song is for life, not just for your debut album.
		When Kick lands its blows, and it lands them more often than not, it's a ballsy, hedonistic rush.

	The Official Kick Axe Fan Site-Vices
		Kick Axe's debut album Vices was a milestone in the history of Canadian heavy metal, capturing a more contemporary feel than their peers Helix while offering a batch of solidly written and exuberantly performed songs.
		Kick Axe was definetely one of the better metal bands to come out of the early '80s.
		KICK AXE seemed to have had every element to be one of the few Canadian bands to truly strike it big here in the states, and yet it didn't.

	MC5 Kick Out The Jams
		Clearly this notion of violent, total youth revolution and takeover is an idea whose time has come - which speaks not well for the idea but ill for the time.
		Well, the album is out now and we can all judge for ourselves.
		The difference here, the difference which will sell several hundred thousand copies of this album, is in the hype, the thick overlay of teenage-revolution and total-energy-thing which conceals these scrapyard vistas of clichés and ugly noise.

		This morning I woke with the idea of naming the new SloMo album "A Yawn Interrupted By Pain: An Ironic Emo Album" but once I got into the flow of the day and smelled the reality I fell back to the old "Horses for Courses" title which, incidentally, will be available next Thursday.
		In SloMo news, the new album is nearing the final stages.
		Based on their 5-song EP Hortatory Examinations, Slomo Rabbit Kick are putting forth another way, an alternative to the workaday world.

	RevelationZ Magazine - Album Review - Kick Axe - Rock the World
		These two albums were made available years ago through the magic of the CD re-release, but the third album, shrouded in mystery due to its rarity and high price tag when found, is often forgotten.
		The album opens with the unsavory title track which is a boring rock anthem at its core.
		Luckily the album improves drastically after this is out of the way and the guys seem to be more open to experimentation.

	Amazon.com: Kick: Music: INXS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-22)
		Instead of the often smothering layers of sound that were the calling card of most of their prior albums, the band stripped the sound down to its bare bones.
		I think this album is worth 5 stars because it has such a strong line up of songs-very few albums can match it, song for song.
		Having had this album and Listen Like Thieves on cassette at one time, and having read the track listings for Listen Like Thieves recently, I'm leaning on saying that Kick is INXS SECOND best album, with Listen Like Thieves being their best.

		In the studio he was able to prove that he wouldn't lose that enticing magic that easily won over what seemed to be everyone within earshot of his performance.
		It is hard to choose just which song is the best on "Kick The Can" because Graham has made it difficult by giving us so many to chose from on this CD.
		Kick the can kicks ass!his music takes me back to a better place and time.A must have for anyones collection!Cant wait for more.Ive recomended it to all my friends.

	Matt Kramer's Saigon Kick webpage
		Saigon Kick's first album, the self-titled disc with the fl and white cover, came out in 1991 and the band toured mercilessly, opening for acts such as Cheap Trick and King's X as they travelled the globe.
		Saigon Kick has always had a very distinctive guitar sound, but Jason doesn't use the same set–up on any of these songs except "Nearer." While Jason decided to release this under the Saigon Kick name is beyond me, unless he just wanted the money built–in fans would supply.
		Once this song kicks in, it is easy to tell how poor the production and sound of the rest of the album is since this song is far louder and fuller sounding than the rest of the album.

		When Saigon Kick was originally introduced to me, I mistakenly placed them in the ranks of other acts that thrived within the 80s/90s rock scene.
		Within the ranks of their works is a little bit of everything, from the angst and rage felt by legions of walking through their mundane lives to the heartfelt adoration that seeing someone close to you so often brings about.
		It is these lilies of the field they've planted throughout albums I would highly recommend (The Lizard, Water, Devil in the details) that keep me listening, something they showcase in even this, their earliest work.

	INXS : Kick - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Where the follow-ups to "What You Need" made barely a ripple on the pop charts, Kick spun off four Top Ten singles, including the band's only American number one, "Need You Tonight." Kick crystallized all of the band's influences -- Stones-y rock & roll, pop, funk, contemporary dance-pop -- into a cool, stylish dance/rock hybrid.
		More than that, really, Kick is an impeccably crafted pop tour de force, the band succeeding at everything they try.
		Even without the band's sense of style, the flawless songcraft is intoxicating, and it's what makes Kick one of the best mainstream pop albums of the '80s.

		I have your other 3 albums on vinyl but i realy think this is your best album till date(and i am the one that always think the 80s albums of a band are always better).
		And after another listenings to the album I think that Kick Axe IV is really strong album, worth purchasing.
		To compare Kick Axe 2004 with previous three albums I think this album is on the same quality level as 1984 "Vices" (which is my favourite).
