| 1. Angels
Nothing's left here but the sun
The human race is on the run
The ancient gods should have told
The earth has never felt this old
Countdown has begun
Apocalypse has got a son
Angels
Flying over the land of blood
Angels
Warriors that Heaven forgot

На мой взгляд, один из самых худших альбомов 2007 года. Альбом в очередной раз продолжил тенденцию предыдущих дисков данной группы. Поиском нового звучания здесь и не попахивает. Песни на альбоме практически ничем друг от друга не отличаются, все они, на мой взгляд, монотонные и скучные без намёка на энергию и драйв. Спорить не буду, что на альбоме действительно прекрасный звук, но по-настоящему хитовых песен, которые встречались на предыдущих альбомах The 69 Eyes, на новом студийнике просто нет. В голову закрадываются дурные мысли по поводу того, неужели музыканты выпустили альбом ради коммерческой выгоды. Прослушал альбом два раза и, честное слово, зря убил два часа из своей и без того тошной жизни. |

То, что на альбоме нет песен, сопоставимых с хитами прошлых альбомов - это, к сожалению факт. Диск "Angels" продолжает, а точнее доводит до абсурда линию заигрывания с рок-н-роллом (не за горами баки а-ля Элвис). Может, конечно, продавать за бугром подобное шапито и выгодно, но любителей готик-рок-метала, помнящих еще нашумевшие "Blessed Be" и "Paris Kills", подобным кругляшом хельсинские вампиры порадуют вряд ли. И это не какое-то опрометчивое высказывание - я заимел диск более полугода назад, за это время многократно его слушал и неизменно плевался. Собственно нельзя назвать этот провал таким уж неожиданным - планка, на мой взгляд, была понижена уже на прошлом альбоме 2004-го "Devils". Не то чтобы он получился провальным, просто заметно слабее двух предыдущих (прежде всего это касается хитовой составляющей). Ну а на нынешнем "Angels" - апофеоз! Обязательно послушайте, а еще лучше почитайте текста песен "Rocker", "Los Angeles" и вам самим все станет ясно. Из ярких пятен могу отметить лишь действительно сильную "Ghost" (спасибо ребятам из Apocalyptica) и классный гитарный проигрыш в куплете "Never Say Die". Вся остальная музыка - блеклый самоплагиат и деградация. Особым оптимистам советую посмотреть еще клипы "Never Say Die" и "Perfect Skin": тут последние сомнения должны отпасть - группа на всех парах несется в америкоcкую эмтивишную клоаку. А ведь класная была группа... P.S. Кстати, тот факт, что это всего вторая рецензия почти за год существования CD, лишний раз подтверждает его низкую художественную ценность. |

«Вся концепция нашего нового диска крутится вокруг Штатов, он пропитан американским духом. Но не заморачивайтесь на общей идее альбома - это просто хорошая рок-н-ролльная пластинка с горячей голливудской девушкой на обложке» (Юрки об альбоме «Angels» в одном из интервью).
Послушала новую работу The 69 Eyes. Все вроде бы есть, и та же голливудская красавица на обложке, и музыка, которую можно назвать рок-н-роллом, но... Пластинка целиком посвящена Америке, что видно и по тематике текстов и по звучанию, но вот искренности и некого шарма песням явно недостает. По сравнению с теми песнями, которые The 69 Eyes писали раньше, данные треки намного слабее. Если группа хотела данным творением покорить Штаты, то затея явно провалилась, да и концепция альбома выбрана не очень неудачно.
Подробнее о песнях. «Never Say Die» (2) запомнилась средненьким музыкальным оформлением и таким же текстом, неплохие мелодии в песнях «The Ghost» (4) и «Star of Fate» (7). Трек «Perfect Skin», на мой взгляд, рассчитан на публику и ничем особым не выделяется. Это все, что я могу отметить, поскольку остальные песни не то что не впечатлили, а скорее разочаровали.
К сожалению, альбом «Angels» получился не «хорошей рок-н-ролльной пластинкой», а набором безликих и далеко не блестящих музыкальных произведений, а сама группа сделала шаг назад. |

21st century son of a bitch
Speaking with the mouth of a whore
Riding with the horsemen of four
Countdown has begun
Apocalypse has got a son
Angels
Flying over the land of blood
Angels
Warriors that Heaven forgot
Angels
Didn't come here for you and me
Angels
Why did you leave us her in misery
2. Never Say Die
I guess you're seeking salvation
Nothing but damnation
Left for you
If you choose the wrong direction
It's a brand new feeling
Sacrificial healing
Like a U-turn out of the blue
Once you're strong enough to face it
Though I'm standing by your side
I feel so lonely I could cry
Never say die
Leave me alone in the night
Keep me away from the light
Razorblade cuts the line
Never say never say die
Are you escaping the dreaming
A life without meaning
Left for you
If you choose the wrong addiction
Let me tell you a story
Without a blaze of glory
The darkest days are through
Once you taste my love you'll make it
Though I'm standing by your side
I feel so lonely I could cry
Never say die
Leave me alone in the night
Keep me away from the light
Razorblade cuts the line
Never say never say die
Leave me alone in the night
Keep me away from the light
Razorblade cuts the line
Never say never say die
Though I'm standing by your side
I feel so lonely I could cry
If I could feel my heart tonight
Never say never say die
3. Rocker
Gods gave a sinner a second chance
"You've got the blues but you can't have a romance"
Ain't mucha sinner baby not a saint
The ghost of Elvis told me how to get the girls faint
I'm going down
Down the line
I'm a rocker yeah
Baby I'm a rocker
That's right
I'm a rocker yeah
A goddamn rocker yeah
That's fine
Gotta get you rockin' babe shaking your hips
Got a license to kiss gonna burn your lips
What you wanna woman is what you gonna get
We gonna rock all night until we drop dead
I'm going down
Down the line
I'm a rocker yeah
Baby I'm a rocker
That's right
I'm a rocker yeah
A goddamn rocker yeah
That's fine
I'm a rocker yeah
Baby I'm a rocker
That's right

Jesus I'm a goddamn rocker
That's fine
I made a deal with the Devil that I can't change
No no not any more
I made a deal with the Devil that I can't change
No no not any more
No no not any more
Have mercy in me now
4. Ghost
I've been around in the runaway places
I've seen them all where the angels bleed
I've lost and found all your traces
I guess I tried for the reason you loved me
Until you find out
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to find
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to mind
There's no-one home tonight
Ghost
What comes around the fall embraces
And seals it all till the winter's deep
What's been love the pain replaces
I guess I lied for the reason you loved me
Until you find out
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to find
So hard to be there when you need me
When you try not to mind
There's no-one home tonight
5. Perfect Skin
You've got a perfect skin,
With a Devil's grin.
Say hello to the pretty eyes,
Say hello to the deadliest lies.
You've got the looks, baby, I could die.
You've got the looks.
You've got a murder style.
(First Sin)
You can't keep me waiting forever, baby.
(Who's in perfect skin?)
It's getting hot
Who's gonna rescue me?
(Nothing in)
You've got a perfect skin,
With a Devil's grin.
Say hello to the pretty eyes,
Say hello perfect alibis.
You shake your hips, baby, I could die.
You shake your hips,
You've got an L.A. style
(First Sin)
You can't keep me waiting forever, baby.
(Who's in perfect skin?)
It's getting hot
Who's gonna rescue me?
(Nothing in)
You've got a perfect skin,
With a Devil's grin.
You've got a perfect skin,
Eyes like sin.
Jenna.
Paris.
Jessica.
Marilyn,
Jayne,
Madonna.
You've got the looks, baby, I could die.
You've got the looks.
You've got a murder style.
(First Sin)
You can't keep me waiting forever, baby.
(Who's in perfect skin?)
It's getting hot
Who's gonna rescue me?
(Nothing in)
It's OK, that's alright now,
But I ain't gonna burn in flames.
Let it go now.
Let it go now.
(First Sin)
You can't keep me waiting forever, baby.
(Who's in perfect skin?)
It's getting hot
Who's gonna rescue me?
(Nothing in)
You've got a perfect skin.
You've got a perfect skin,
With a Devil's grin.
Perfect skin,
With a Devil's grin.
Perfect skin.
With a Devil's grin.
Perfect skin.
6. Wings & Hearts
Hey hey babe when did you disappear
Hey hey babe where did you go from here
Did you hear it calling your name
Did you feel it burning in your veins
Hey hey baby where did you go with the rain
I saw a storm in her eyes
A thousands lives
And she danced on danced on like on fire
Wings & hearts
Two sides of evil
That's what you are
Angels wings and devil's heart
Voodoo got you
You got the voodoo
Wings & hearts
Two sides of evil
That's what you are
Devil's wings and angel heart
Voodoo got you
You got the voodoo
Hey hey babe why did you disappear
Hey hey babe why did you come back here
Did you hear me calling your name
Did you feel me burning in your veins
Hey hey baby why did you go with the rain
I saw a storm in her eyes
A thousands lives
And she danced on danced on like on fire
Wings & hearts
Two sides of evil
That's what you are
Angels wings and devil's heart
Voodoo got you
You got the voodoo
Wings & hearts
Two sides of evil
That's what you are
Devil's wings and angel heart
Voodoo got you
You got the voodoo
7. Star Of Fate
As I seal your lips
With a good-night's kiss, my love
I feel that I'd miss
That longing deep inside my heart
But I have to go
Before the morning grows too old now
The second star from the right
Is the one I use as my guiding light
Tonight I cast my spell
And I wish upon a star
Star of fate keeps me moving along
Follow that dream of my heart
As I seal your lips
With a good-bye kiss, my love
It's been hit and miss
Hurting deep inside my heart
But I have to go
Before we grow too old now
That second start from the right
Is the one always shining there by my side
Every night I cast my spell
And I wish upon a star
Star of fate keeps me moving along
Follow that dream of my heart
8. Los Angeles
Some say money
Some say a dream
Some get laid on the silver screen
What does faith mean
In the world on the Sunset down
Some say money
Some say fame
Some get a losing hand in the game
What does grace mean
In this world where the guns dies young
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Run away with me
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Fallen angels on their knees
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Take a chance with me
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
I still love you - Los Angeles
Some say money
Some say dames
Some get sold without the names
What does faith mean
In the world on the Sunset down
Show me honey
No fuckin' shame
Show me your innocence in vain
What does grace mean
In the world where the love dies young
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Run away with me
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Fallen angels on their knees
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
Take a chance with me
Crash'n'burn'n'bleed
I still love you - Los Angeles
9. In My Name
Through these eyes I've seen so much of pain
And through these eyes I've seen blood staining the rain
Written in the prophecy is my name
If you wanna follow me
It's not all game
(In my name)
Shall I come back again
(In my name)
Shall I come back in the end
In these times of war and fame
And in these times love goes down the drain
Written in the prophecy is the name
Somebody comes for you and me
It's not all game
(In my name)
Shall you cast out devils
(In my name)
Shall you take up serpents
(In my name)
Shall you speak with new tongues
(In my name)
Shall you be forgiven
In this world
In this ol' world
In this world
The road is my name
(In my name)
Shall you cast out devils
(In my name)
Shall you take up serpents
(In my name)
Shall you speak with new tongues
(In my name)
Shall you be forgiven
In my name
10. Shadow Of Your Love
Ride on a white horse
Northern man
Under the bluest skies
Reflection in your eyes
Got no fear
Wisdom on your side
Still you gotta ride
Like for the last day of your life
Out of darkness I command
This desolation land
Eclipse shines above
Like a shadow of your love
Talk to the mountain
Talk to the moon
Tell all the children
Freedom rides with you
African sunset
World without end
When you feel like hunted
Death looks like a friend
Out of darkness I command
This desolation land
Eclipse shines above
Like a shadow of your love
11. Frankenhooker
When the moon is full and shining bright
Cold wind blowing inside
I've got chills something just ain't right
Baby it's you tonight
I've seen it all coming in my dreams
A thousands nightmares torturing me
I never though there's a killing in me
It's you or me tonight
I ain't looking for no head
From some fucking living dead
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
Got no class graveyard strutter
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
Down to kill tonight
Through the frozen ground, ice and snow
You finally found your way back home
I've got tell you something you don't know
Baby you're dead all right
I woke up into my own scream
A thousand zombie girls running after me
I never thought I could feel this lonely baby
I need your love tonight
But I ain't looking for no head
From some fucking living dead
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
Got no class graveyard strutter
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
Down to kill tonight
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
Got no class graveyard strutter
Dirty ass Frankenhooker
I don't need your love tonight
YOU SUCK!
