This isn't so much a music CD as it is a Story told with music; so there is prose mixed in with verse. The album concept is different than anything I've heard before, but the music isn't so much, if that makes sense. Pray for me, Tomorrow, Girl with golden eyes, Life is Beautiful, and Courtesy Call are favorites of mine.

I usually like my music A LOT heavier and faster, but I dabble in some rock every now and then. It takes something unique to catch my ear though - the songwriting has to really stand out. Sixx:A.M. has done that. VERY catchy songs with great melodies and riffs. The vocalist shows a lot of different variations on his singing and does a great job relating emotion in the songs. I was surprised at how much I like this cd and hope they keep writing songs together. I even gave the new Motley Crue a try, but it bored me.

The entire cd is amazing. From the haunting opening track X-mas and all the way though it is a journey in itself. What the amazon review says couldn't be more off.

I have been a huge fan of Nikki and the Crue since back in the day. I have to say this album is an incredible experience. The music and the lyrics bind so tightly, they pull you in to Nikki's life (and death) in 1986-87. When you listen to the album you almost feel dirty and by the end, you are resurrected as Nikki was. I recommend this album without any hesitation.

I have listened to A LOT of music in my life and I have rarely heard anything that grabbed my attention as quickly as this soundtrack did. There isn't anything about it that is lacking. The lyrics are amazing and are supported by some incredible music. There is a curious mix of rock, classical and carnival that totally works! Thanks to Sixx:A.M. for putting this soundtrack together and intense blessings to Nikki Sixx! If he didn't have a Life After Death none of us would be able to share this experience with him! If you haven't done it yet, check out 'The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star'. Reading that will bring more clarity to the music and the sales of both benefit and awesome charity - Running Wild in the Night.

This cd is just as good as the book. It's like he summerized the book, and put it into amazing music. It's depressing, but it's real.
