Cult Curio.......2006-09-18
For collectability value, this disc is a notch-above compilations that rehash songs that you already have... as far as I know, this is the only place to hear these updated versions, with makes for a zero-overlap with your prexisting collection. Some clarification is necessary... this isn't updating in the radical overhaul IMAGINOS "Astronomy" sense... these are mostly faithful to the originals with variations in the instrumentation... an extended solo here or there, slightly different arrangements in the keyboards, newly sung vocals. In a sense, it can almost be seen as a "live in studio" type deal, minus the crowds and between-song banter.
BOC fanatics will get a kick out of hearing different variations of their favorite tunes. The tracklisting has all the major hits, some live favorites ("Me 262") and some minor surprises as well "(Harvester of Eyes" makes a nice unexpected appereance). In that regard, this set is accurated titled... you get both the classics, and the cult in one package.
Worth it for die-hards... newbies should proceed directly to the best BOC compilation available, WORKSHOP OF THE TELESCOPES or, if you're feeling particularly adventurous, the studio albums themselves. Hopefully you'll get there eventually.

It's not BAD; it just somewhat misses the point........2004-10-25
PROS:
Has some of the best Cult songs
Has TV versions of Don't Fear the Reaper and Godzilla
Vocals and instruments sound somewhat better
CONS:
Misses some of the good ones by BOC
Has some pretty lame ones for a Best Of album
Not a very good introducing album
Better Best Of's by BOC out there!
"Cult Classic" Misses The Point.......2004-10-02
Why?.......2004-08-20
Another thing that bothers me, and it doesn't bother me THAT BAD, is that they get some of the writing credits wrong, not giving Al Bouchard credit for writing "This Aint The Summer Of Love", not giving Joe Bouchard credit for helping write "O.D.'D" and inserting Donald Roeser's name for both songs. ( I don't know, maybe the original writing credits were incorrect!) Then again, you'll only notice these indiscrepencies if you've studied the writing credits as closely as I have!
One thing I DO like is the T.V. mixes of "Don't Fear" and "Godzilla" that come at the end of the CD. Both of these just have the music and backing vocals, so YOU can finally be the singer of some of your favorite B.O.C. songs!
The overall performances aren't that bad, but I really recommend you go elsewhere for most of these songs!
Pretty Good for a compilation...........2004-04-23
Also, not to quibble or anything, but "Harvest Moon" is absent. Written 3-4 years prior to the release of "Classics" one would think it would be in the line up.
Also, the album art is courtesy of Melne Murphey (formerly Melne Gregmar).
Good stuff even if it is the umpteen gazillionth "Best of" release.

FYI.......2006-07-02
the lyrics: when i first listened to it, i thought they were a bit elementary and unintelligent. but again, upon further listening, a cutting sarcasm becomes painfully apparent. furthermore, i found out that this album was pretty much a tongue in cheek offering of typical teenage angst, and the band has pretty much said that if you are serious about this moron, you're a moron. this album was made to make fun of such individuals.
if you like this, also check out the new spitfire album "self help".

NO ONES GETTING OUT ALIVE
DRUGS DRUGS DRUGS
GO FIGHT KILL!
Okay on paper it sounds kinda silly but when you hear it on rekid, they are pretty sweet. How come Ferret doesn't put anything out on vinyl, come on guys I thought you were hardcore!
OK album... just ok........2005-03-30
Great technicality, weak lyrics..........2005-01-23
So if you are a fan of technical hardcore and metalcore and can get past decent vocals and mediocre lyrics, you will definitely appreciate Cult Classic.
Does this hurt you?.......2004-11-20
If you've ever felt self-destructive, If you've ever seen the inside of a holding cell or a psyche ward, If you are more than just a little anti-social,
Then you will appreciate this CD.
1. OD (3/5) - Decent opening track, a little dramatic.
2. Get your Gun (5/5) - Rapid and toothsome, should have been the opening track in my opinion.
3. The Joy Decoys are Coming (5/5)- Great track, starts fast then immediately drops the tempo and the bass kicks hard. Lyrics are about corruption, and they are artistic and venomous.
4. Suicide Soundtrack (5/5) - GO FIGHT KILL GO FIGHT KILL GO FIGHT KILL GO FIGHT KILL
5. Life Support (2/5) - IMO the weakest track on the album. The chorus is still really cool though.
6. Dead America (4/5) - ominous and dangerous, slower than the tracks so far.
7. Sinning by your Side (6/5) - Awesome song, captures the fervor and insanity of dysfunctional romance.
8. Nymphoteens (6/5) - Starts out with just a beat and distorted vocals, builds quickly and explodes, chorus is harmonious but still very very dark.
9. Human Pollen (4/5) - slow and dreary like an amphetamine hangover but with a nice distorted beat in the background
10. Lie.Fake.Money-Make. (4/5) - tempo switches up a little too much for me, still one of the best tracks on the album.
11. Florescent Sunshine (5/5) - Unbelievable. Lyrics are about society and how your job and bank account defines who you are. Intense and desperate and cynical.
12. No one's getting out alive (3/5) - Fast and intense but not particularly memorable.
13. The Mannequin Campaign (6/5) -This is the mannequin campaign/this is the shock value refrain/for the drug addicts (yeah)/and the stoned fanatics (yeah, drugs. drugs drugs drugs drugs....) This track will make your blood move.
14. My Black Hole Girl (3/5) - Slow track. Lyrics about being decieved by a lover and turning numb.
15. Untitled (6/5) - Another instant classic. Song is about paranoid violent state of mind in America today. Lyrics - The antichrist is coming/to kill your young/load your firearms/because security/is a warm, warm gun/
16. You're my Fix (5/5) - Awesome slow track, great way to end the album. Lyrics are about stalking a girl, referred to as Ms. Doe.
If you like angry music, buy this. You will not be disappointed.

A sonic treat for your ears and imagination.......2007-03-22
The only "complaint" I have with the recording is that some of the tracks have "space chatter" in them...which is fine except you have to turn the volume WAAAAY up to hear it; if you're not fast enough to turn it back down before the music continues, you'll either have an earache for a few days of a couple of blown woofers.
As an aside, I first heard of Amin Bhatia when I purchased a keyboard synthesizer decades ago and it had, as a demo file, Bhatia's rendition of "Flight of the Bumble Bee" by Nikolay Rimsky-Korsakov; it was great!

Hey Pak -- Keep Dancing and Don't Speak!.......2005-05-18
This album, on the other hand, is the most god awful piece of trash that I have ever let touch my CD player. Why would anyone in their right mind let this be released??? I would rather stand over my kitchen sink and listen to the garbage disposal for an hour, than listen to Pakelika try to rap. And they market this as "real hip hop"??? Pakelika has no flow, nothing to say, and the production on this album is pathetic.
Ladies and gentlemen, there is a reason that Pakelika doesn't rap on any KMK albums -- he sucks, flat out. I sold this CD to Record Exchange the weekend after I got it and probably would have smashed it in the parking lot if they didn't give me a whopping 50 cents for it. I'll always be down with the krown, but c'mon Subnoize -- stop releasing bulls### like this!!
