Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Five years before the release of ANThology, Alien Ant Farm befriended Papa Roach, then fellow strugglers on the California club circuit. And so AAF wound up signing to Papa Roach's New Noise Records. AAF have furthermore strengthened their Roach connection by employing Jay Baumgardner, producer of their benefactors' Infest, to lend sheen to the noise. The result doesn't show a tremendous range, but is generally excellent, with sweeping, soaring guitars ("Whisper," "Stranded") and shuddering riffs ("Wish"), putting one in mind of a less disturbing version of Alice in Chains. Standouts include the opener, "Courage," led by Mike Cosgrove's off-kilter clatter and Dryden Mitchell's winding lyrics; a chopping, pleading cover of Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal"; and the revved up "Flesh and Bone." With the tense, Pearl Jam-like "Attitude," AAF attempt to change the mood and tempo, and one hopes they'll continue such sonic explorations. For now, ANThology is a palatable aperitif. --Dominic Wills

If you like the Smooth Criminal cover, you'll be disappointed by the rest of the album. Not a big fan of this band after hearing this album. They are creepily generic as if molded in an MTV laboratory somewhere in New York City. Just buy the MP3 single, and don't buy this album.

I found this cd in a cd changer I bought off ebay so I thought I would check it out. I had heard Smooth Criminal, Movies, and Attitude and knew they were pretty good but I was surprised how good the rest of the songs were. Whatever happened to these guys?

The best ever re-make of a Michael Jackson song! Band sounds tight and has rythm but this style of music tends to sound the same.

I dont understand everyone who is like "hey man, this isnt harcore enough. The only good song is Smooth Criminal. Michael Jackson's cd is better." Did you even listen to the other songs on the cd? and if your so hardcore why did you buy the CD in the first place. I enjoyed almost every song on Anthology. and truANT. And their new cd Up in the Attic which you can get on i tunes or buy on amazon end of june.

First off this is the album that got me into music period! I got it for my 13th birthday. Prior to this album. I barely listened to music at all. Smooth Criminal is an excellent cover of MJ's original from the bad album.
I ask that anyone who reads this review, please don't listen to the haters that write a one paragraph piece of crap review of this album. I can understand that some people won't like the album, but don't be a hater. People do think that AAF does bad music that is about ... Read More
