GOOD LITTLE EP OF REMIXED KORN SONGS

THIS 5-TRACK CD [WHICH IS CARRIED ONLY IN BEST BUY LOCATIONS] IS A LITTLE COLLECTION OF REMIXED KORN SONGS. THE REMIXES ARE GOOD. THE BEST REMIX IS THE REMIX TO ''GOT THE LIFE''. WORTH CHECKING OUT IF YOU'RE A FAN OF KORN.

Mixed Bag

Whether or not you need Korn's "All Mixed Up" release really depends on how much you follow the band. If you collect their imports and various other releases, and plan to continue, you will most likely scoop up all the material on here elsewhere. However, if you are a Korn fan on a budget, and aren't interested in tracking down all of their minor releases, "All Mixed Up" is a worthwhile purchase. Originally released as a bonus disc for Korn's 1999 album "Issues" is Australia, "All Mixed Up" is a four song collection consisting of three remixes, one live performance and one unreleased studio track. The radio remix of "A.D.I.D.A.S." starts it off. We've all heard this version, it's the same as in the music video (and if you actually have a station that plays it, you heard it on the radio). It's a pretty useless addition. The Dub Pistols remix of "Good God" is definitely not up to par. There are probably more remixes for "Good God" than any other Korn song, and most of them are better than this. The Josh Abraham remix of "Got The Life," however, is probably the best I've heard of the song and is pretty hard to find (appearing only on the out of print "Falling Away From Me (2)" import single). The live performance of "Twist/Chi" is taken from the "Family Values '98" CD and chances are you already own that disc, but it is still a great performance. Finally, the last song, "Jingle Balls," Korn's second Christmas song, actually sounds nothing like Korn. Very interesting to hear, and it is probably worth buying this EP alone for. So there you have it. As I stated before, this release isn't really neccessary for completists, as you can find all this stuff anywhere else, but if you don't plan on scouting out all things Korn, this is a good, wallet-friendly place to stop.

Pretty good

This is a good EP, but it's not very good, but it's definatly not a bad EP. Here's a run-down of the songs:



1. A.D.I.D.A.S. (Radio Edit)-2/5-I hate this version. But the dirty version ownz!!!

2. Good God (Dub Pistols Mix)-1/5-OMG! What the hell happened? Good God is an awesome song, but this song sucks!

3. Got the Life (Josh Abraham Remix)-4/5-Wow! A good remix!!!! The song is the same vocally, but the guitars, basses and drums are replaced with techno beats.

4. Twist/Chi (Live)-4/5-If you own the Family Values Tour '98 CD you should know this song.

5. Jingle Balls-6/5-Seriously, this is the real reason to buy this thing!!!

Bottom line:It's a good EP.
