Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

One of techno's prime trendsetters, Moby flashed surprising rock chops on the Joy Division tribute Means to an End in 1995. Here he abandons the dance floor completely for a convincing stroll through a multitude of guitar-based styles. "Come on Baby" is the man's idea of trad rock, "Someone to Love" explodes like the best hardcore, and "Face It" is a swelling progressive epic. Animal Rights also includes Moby's ode to his roots, a cover of Mission of Burma's "That's When I Reach for My Revolver". --Jeff Bateman


CD Description

The two guitar-based, pseudo-hardcore punk songs on EVERYTHING IS WRONG whetted Moby's appetite for destruction enough to yield ANIMAL RIGHTS, an album that is chock-full of guitars. Although ANIMAL RIGHTS is book-ended by two melancholy acoustic guitar and violin duets ("Now I Let it Go" and "LoveSong for My Mother"), the rest of the record contains the kind of raucous and loud music Moby made with the obscure punk band the Vatican Commandos. Fans of Moby's ambient work might not find this record as appealing as those who favour Moby's aggressive side. However, it might be hard for anyone to resist the hard soloing on songs like the Prince-meets-Minor Threat thrash-fest "Come on Baby" or the slam-fests that are "Someone to Love", "Heavy Flow", and "You". "Soft" and "Say it's All Mine" bring the pace down for a few moments to allow those slam-dancing in their bedrooms to rest for a moment. "Face it" could almost pass for a Black Sabbath cover. The excellent "That's When I Reach for My Revolver" is a Mission of Burma cover.

3.0 out of 5 stars Moby's Schizoid Album, 9 Jan 2003
By Martin A Hogan "Marty From SF" (San Francisco, CA. (Hercules)) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Animal Rights (Audio CD)
This album is for the true Moby fan. It's very good, but stretches the limits in both directions with no middle ground.

Half of the tracks are frantic, near punk as Moby screams to a frenzied beat. The rest of the songs are mellow, relaxed and hypnotic. The best of these is the Eno-esque, "A Season In Hell". The remake of "That's When I Reach For My Revolver" is a great rock and roll number - and the only one like it on the album. Moby brings out the violin on "Love Song For My Mom" (literally) and it's hard to tell if it's synthesized or real. The best song (IMO) on the album is "Living", simply a pleasant song and worth the price of the entire CD.

I could have done without all the pontificating in the liner notes and the pleading message, "please listen to Animal Rights in its entirety at least once", however nice a gesture it was. It's the music that really counts here. Moby seems to have been unsure which direction to take here, but just a few of the songs make it worth the listen.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not everybody's cup of tea, 14 Mar 2005
By John David Charles Hilton "Creative spark...." (Redcliffe, Bristol United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Moby goes punk. Sort of. This is, mostly, a collection of great, abrasive rock songs. It is difficult to see quite where it fits into the Moby canon, but who cares when the music is this good. Obviously inspired, at least in part, by Joy Division, it is an album that I return to often. Just to add to the confusion the first CD is bookended by gentle, viola accompanied instrumentals and the second CD is an effective foray into quite mood music. Not everybody liked Moby leaving dance music so far behind on this album, but I discovered him via this record and I still play it regularly. I recommend it to any rock fan and to open minded fans of Play and 18 who would like to hear something a bit different from Moby.

4.0 out of 5 stars Animal Rights, 15 Jun 2005
By F. Quinn "lady_safia" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Animal Rights (Audio CD)
I am quite recently a fan of Moby and find his music, not only very good but him as a person a very interesting and unique artist for his views which show he is actually a person of some depth there - not some empty headed person. His apparent intelligence makes it not so surprising that he is a good musician.

Animal Rights is very good and different from the other stuff I have heard. (admittedly only really heard usic from his albums Play and 18). The first and last track are very peaceful and calming, very different from all that inbetween which has a very different style. Very loud and quite a bit of screaming. Hmm, I'm not sure of the genre you would put this under... metal?

I prefer Play and 18 to this album but still a really good album. My favourite tracks are Now Let it Go and Love Song for my Mum.

This is to prove Moby wasn't always a man whose talent extends only as far as lifting old blues samples and grafting them onto bland corporate coffee-table music. Read more
