ESPN Presents X Games, Vol. 1 - Music From The Edge

Really enjoy this CD. 2nd time buying it.

great record!

First CD I ever owned. Probably listened to this 200 times. I remember we didn't even have a CD player at the time. Bought this disc and then had to get a CD player. Memories! Great music too!

Good!

I have had it for years, but it is a gread cd and I am buying it again to download without any skipping. If you like alternative and some metal without the dumb low voice singing. This cd is good.Also, check out Escape from L.A. soundtrack. That was good for a soundtrack too for it's time. A little heavier probably.

I haven't heard this one in a while, but upon listening to it, it has a lot of great songs that did not get a lot airplay (at least mainstream airplay). Songs like "Guilty" and "Only One" are great little time capsules to the early 90's alt scene. "Paranoid" was also a well done cover by Megadeth, giving a new take on the Black Sabbath classic.

That's a weird title, you might think. But just listen to the end of "Are You Gonna Go My Way" by Lenny Kravitz. The original version ends with a drum and guitar hit. On this album, the hit is provided by Sepultura with their jungle-drumming and it sounds so cool! The album is full of fun little things like this that fans of the original -structure songs will appreciate (or despise, I guess). But hey, if you want the studio-recorded endings to the songs, you might want to buy the individual albums, because there are a lot of great bands on this album. For you people that like 80's pop, there is a VERY different version of Soft Cell's "Tainted Love." It doesn't have that electronic beeping in it though. Overall, this is a pretty heavy album and isn't for everyone. But for those who appreciate creative noise-making, you'd be hard-pressed to find a better compilation.
