4.0 out of 5 stars Not their best, but..., Mar 18 2004
By 
This review is from: Boi-ngo (Audio CD)
... but Elfman makes up vocally and lyrically.
Home Again-4.5 out of 5-The only reason I gave this such a great rating is because of the music. The music really sounds good on this song.

Where Do All My Friends Go-4 out of 5-I really love the way this song begins, a capella. Sounds really good. Elfman is a really great singer.

Elevator Man-4.5 out of 5-This one, also, has good music. A good dance song.

New Generation-4 out of 5-This song is good. I really love the chorus. The vocals and the trumpets in it. Great one.

We Close Our Eyes-4.5 out of 5-A suprisingly good song by OB. Really doesn't sound like them, but it's good. I can imagine this song playing over the credits or during a prom scene in an 80's movie.

Not My Slave-4 out of 5-Another good dance song.

My Life-3.5 out of 5-Not my personal favorite off the album(that would be Where Do All My Friends Go), but it's okay.

Outrageous-4 out of 5-Good music. I really like the chorus.

Pain-4 out of 5-Good music. Great vocals by Elfman. The fiddle sounds great.

When I bought this album, I was expecting more from it, because I had gotten Only A Lad first, and was a little disappointed when I listened to it. But, it's still an okay listen.

I've been a huge fan of this unique and wonderfully talented band since the late 80's. My review for this album would read the same for all their albums... BUY IT NOW!!! Spend the money and get everything you can!!!! Oingo Boingo can do no wrong!!

4.0 out of 5 stars shorter name, still a great band, Nov 23 2003
By 
M. Tefer "matt" (MN, United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Boi-ngo (Audio CD)
Many will find this album to be disappointing when compared to Oingo Boingo's last album, Dead Man's Party.

Upon deeper inspection they were still very much the same in sound although lyrically, they may be slightly less jokey. From my perspective, this is where Oingo Boingo grew into a less commercialized band who desired more of a limited audience. This may be due to their shortened name which some may have mistaken for an entirely different band.

The songs are less memerable than their previous stuff but they kept some good material.

We Close Our Eyes sounds surprising like the Moody Blues.

Pain sounds like something Depeche Mode used for their song Personal Jesus with the sawing / breathing effect.

Home Again is an uplifting and gradually expansive synthesized feast.
The rest of the album may not appeal as much to some but it's nice to see someone other than U2 was creating great music back in 87.
