| Professional Review: |
| It's hard to believe that this is the debut CD created by award-winning performance-art sensations the Blue Man Group, whose off-the-wall and high-tech, highly percussive show has been an off-Broadway hit since the beginning of its uninterrupted run in 1991. This CD is not a soundtrack; while some pieces appear in the show, they are presented here with extra instruments, performers, and recently developed instruments. In addition to making abstract paintings by pouring paint onto kettledrums then bashing on them until the color pours onto an awaiting canvas, the Blue Man Group make their own instruments out of unexpected, often very simple materials. Creations used to make this record include air poles, the big drum, the PVC instrument, the backpack tubulum, and the drum wall (no, David van Tieghem is not a member of the group). Those homemade instruments notwithstanding (which are most striking visually anyway), the heavily rhythmic nature of the music, combined with the guitar as a focal element, reminds one of early-to-mid-1980s art-rock. The opening salvo--a two-minute number--starts off subtle and pleasing enough, with slowly building layers of percussive sound and overlapping soundtrack-y guitar lines vaguely reminiscent of Ennio Morricone, the great soundtrack composer that everyone rips off. The entire disc will highly satisfy the faithful and serve as intriguing background music for everyone else. --Mike McGonigal |

Written on January 5, 2007 Summary: Audio by Blue Man Group This is a great CD to play when working on mindless, boring jobs. It keeps your motor reving.  Written on January 1, 2007 Summary: Amazing I bought the Audio CD and DVD-A and the DVD-A 5.1 is amazing. I sat down and listened to the whole thing 2 times in a row, enjoyed every bit. The surround mastering is incredible, the air sticks and everything make you feel like you are literally surrounded by the blue men on stage. If I could crank up my stereo anymore I couldnt tell the difference between live and this recording, besides me being on stage instead of in the audience. The quality is superb. Written on November 14, 2006 Summary: Blue Man Audio If you are looking for something fun and different, you've found it. Refreshing, new sounds with alot of sizzle. Written on November 10, 2006 Summary: Not quite like being there, but a good substitute This CD is the best choice if your simply looking to hear the music from the show. Even without the visuals of the show, the music is great to listen to. Written on November 2, 2006 Summary: jumpin' And when I say jumpin', I mean what I'm doing in my kitchen while this CD is playing. I've seen the show twice, and it's like a drug that I just want again and again. But this is the next best thing. The show is so good, but the music creates such images in my mind that I don't miss it as much. My kids dance to it with me and my wife, and we all just groove to the beat. I can't help but think that BMG reminds methat I live in a cyberpunk novel, and the music gives me a soundtrack for the day. I love this. |
