Product Description

Amazon.co.uk review

Though the mainstream might have all but abandoned Alanis Morrissette since her mid-90s breakthrough as the MTV grunge generation’s Madonna, she has forged on with a handful of albums of a reasonably steely consistency. Although even kindly ears would recognise her output since Jagged Little Pill as reduced strength versions of that celebrated album. Its slightly convoluted follow up, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, remains her most intriguing if long-winded work, and with her most recent record (2004’s So Called Chaos) more or less finding peace with itself--filing down the angsty internal dialogues and sounding almost content even at its loudest points--the future seemed to be heading on a downward spiral. But talk about an about turn. With Flavours Of Entanglement the bronco is very much bucking once more, often causing whiplash-inducing stylistic swerves. "Citizen Of The Planet" opens the album, erupting out of eastern strings and a sequenced underlay with blunt, compressed guitars and thumping beats, sweeping through desolate plains previously inhabited by nu-metal fantasists Evanescence. The dark tension is upheld through the robotic techno of "Straightjacket" and dark string-laden drum ‘n’ bass of "Moratorium". Landing amid the lonely Tori Amos balladry of "Not As We", Texas-pop of "In Praise Of The Vulnerable Man" and more typical Alanis fare of "Underneath", this is an often unsettlingly mixed bag achieving varying levels of success, but it is also probably her most emotionally satisfying work for a decade. --James Berry


CD Description

Canadian songstress Alanis Morissette became a global sensation with 1995's 'Jagged Little Pill', one of the biggest selling records of the decade. Thirteen years on and 'Flavors Of Entanglement' shows that Morissette has lost none of her appeal. Relationships are dismantled by angst ridden energy and lyrics, while beautiful ballads blend in seamlessly and electronics are occasionally found alongside the trademark guitars and pianos. Singles include 'Underneath'. Second disccontains bonus tracks.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mostly brilliant. Unmistakably Alanis., 29 Jun 2008
By Steven Chapman "steve_142" - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
I'd kept an eye out for this release for a while as I've always been a fan of Alanis' unique sound. I quickly changed my order from the standard release to the "DeLuxe" edition as soon as I'd noticed that it existed as I always tend to go for 2-disc releases of albums if they seem good value.

I'm so glad I did, because the second disc, although relatively brief, has a couple of stand-out tracks that are real 5-star items in their own right. For them to feature on a bonus CD instead of the main disc was a pleasant although slightly puzzling discovery. The two tracks I'm referring to are "Orchid" and "Madness". Both are totally stunning in my opinion and I could listen to them over and over. "Orchid" has a harmonious sound with a pleasant flowing nature, tied in by a curious bass line that just seems to fit perfectly. "Madness" is perhaps my favourite track on the entire double disc. It is both gentle and powerful with well-used piano aspects and a quiet, simple drum beat.

Back to the main disc, there are several stand-out tracks for me, namely: "Underneath"; "Moratorium"; "Torch" and "Tapes". Of these tracks "Moratorium" seems perhaps the most far-removed from what I believed Alanis' safe-zone to be, being quite a quick rythmic beat and quite a dark and synthesized sound overall, but it works very well. "Torch" is a track that has parts of it that make your spine tingle if you're in the mood for it, really quite enthusing stuff. "Tapes" perhaps sits alongside "Madness" and "Orchid" as favourite tracks overall. Well lyricised and well-paced to suit the nuances of Alanis' vocals.

The two tracks I felt least-worthy of being on the album were both closing tracks on the discs, namely "Incomplete" and "On the Tequila". Neither seemed to follow the flow of the rest of the disc, coming across as almost randomly cheerful and bright in comparison to the thoughtfulness and intricateness of the rest of the two discs.

But on the whole, who am I to complain? As long as Alanis continues to make beautiful music, so I will continue to listen.

Highly recommended (and make sure you get the 2-disc, not the 1-disc release).

4.0 out of 5 stars "Great stuff", Alanis!, 26 Feb 2009
By S. REYNOLDS (WORCESTER, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I just love this album, all 16 tracks on both CDs of the Deluxe version! Listened to it in the car today and it simply took hold of me. Yes, I know she (still) comes across as a bitter and damaged woman at times, but you can't have songs of pure loveliness without any depth I'm afraid - no pain, no gain! And as for "Torch" ... absolutely gorgeous, yes plus lovely and deep.

I think Alanis's voice is unique, I love her accent, vocal range and power, what more can I say (no I'm not in love with her!)?

5.0 out of 5 stars d0nalds gold star for alanis, 14 Dec 2008
By P. Smith (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i have to say how amazing this album is.it kinda annoys me how people judge everything alanis does by 'jagged little pill'.what artist wants to re-do themselves over and over.the point of writing new music,,is to make it NEW!.so if youre looking for a re-hash of JLP then i would'nt bother with this CD.This is my second favourite alanis album (after supposed former infatuation junkie) because it's completely raw and nerve ends still tingling..like a cut thats still wet or something.well,apart from the tequila song.
