MA¶tley CrA¼e - Supersonic and Demonic Relics

Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) paper sleeve pressing. Universal. 2008. Album Description

For the diehards, and maybe the casual fans

Supersonic & Demonic Relics (1999). Not to be confused with SUPERSONIC RELICS (also 1999) while having the same tracks, it is a "clean" or "edited" version of this album.

This album is basically a combination of 1991's DECADE OF DECADENCE and 1994's (although I may be mistaken on the year) QUARTERNARY, with some extra tracks added in for good measure. Keep in mind, this is not a greatest hits album, but a collection of B-sides and rarities. One reviewer put it best when they said it was the "best of the b-sides" or something to that effect. It pretty much is. Is it worth picking up? Yes, partly because it's extremely hard to find QUARTERNARY these days, and also, it's got some pretty good songs on it too. If you do happen to own both the aforementioned albums then there isn't much point to owning this...except for collectors. Casual fans aren't likely to dig this, but they should give it a shot anyway.

Some tracks you should check: "Bittersuite", "So Good, So Bad", "Sinners and Saints" and the odd but cool "Mood Ring", which shows you what it's like to be drunk in the studio with the Crue. A good album to own. 11/15 January 14, 2005

RANDY CASTILLO?

The person that reviewed this CD and stated that "Randy is on" on this CD seems to be confused... this album was released well before Randy was in the band (signed-on for New Tattoo) and many were recorded YEARS before the album was actually compiled.

This CD could most accurately be described as a "Best of B-sides"... many of these are Crue recordings that have surfaced previously on Crue albums (i.e. Decade of Decadence).

This album is most fitting for only hardcore Crue fans that do not already own this material on other releases or bootlegs. December 22, 2000

crue rocks the world

"MONSTEROUS"&"SAY YEAH"are good songs for audience participation.These songs are a lot of fun and "PLANET BOOM"is the bomb.Each album since this one,has gotten better and better.It's too bad all the original members are not still together,but as long as Vince is on vocals it usually sounds like true Motley Crue! Tommy is Awesome and he should be there!but we have to give props where props is due Randy Costello is a great drummer and he has worked with the best!(Ozzy)etc. For those who didn't like this album and say Motley can't do it without Tommy-realize that Tommy is on THIS album.

GIVE ME A BREAK

I don't know about anyone else, but I am really sick of NIKKI re-re-releasing all of this old music. It's more than obvious that Vince should be given control of this chaotic band. November 1, 1999
