Cons: -
Vegas is a great album to listen to if you are at all interested in electronic music. Released in 1998 by the Crystal Method, Vegas has helped secure electronic music a place in pop culture today.

The Crystal Method: Vegas: Sex, Drugs, And Techno

by kjell1979 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Dec 21 '07
Pros: pretty good from start to finish, rhythmic, deep themes and beats
Cons: too commercialized
I arrived late to the music scene. I was one of the last of my friends to get a CD player, and I rarely played cassette tapes unless it was something weird or juvenile. It wasn't until I was a freshman in college before I really began to develop a sense ...

Vegas can make this child get busy anyday

by Girl_Goddess , Aug 06 '00
Pros: Moving music, Great Beats
Cons: None!
I bought Vegas because I didn't own any other electronica CD's and I liked the two or three tracks I'd heard at a friend's party. The music's upbeat, energetic, and absolutely amazing. The only way to do justice to this CD is to review it...

Viva Vegas!

by Action_Snark , Nov 13 '00
Pros: airy grooves in some places, crunchy beats elsewhere
Cons: some songs sound alike
The Crystal Method is one of the all time greatest names in Techno today.
Their flagship release, Vegas, serves up some very tasty grooves. A majority of the 'Crystal Sound' can be defined as a sort of spacey techno-funk. However, the downbeat...

Funky tunes for the ages.

by indiefargo , Mar 04 '00
Pros: Great tunes anyone would enjoy.
Cons: Might be too light for those hard core ravers
The Crystal Method has created an album for anyone who likes a good beat, and Vegas is it. Vegas combines radical techno beats with complex rhythm sequences to form the ultimate in today's electronic music. I have never heard an album so interwoven...

I Kept Hope Alive

by beast003 , Aug 29 '01
Pros: For a while, Vegas was the shining light for American techno. Fantastic.
Cons: Not for all tastes. Also, the album is certainly no more than 4 great tracks.
For those of you who haven't seen me around for a million years, I'm back just for the heck of it. I decided to review, in no particular order, some randomly selected albums of the 90's that have held on to their spots in my CD case. This is the first...

Why cant you trip Like I do?

by dazey , Nov 13 '99
Pros: the whole album is worth listening to
Cons: putting it on repeat is still a bad idea.
Crystal Method was long ago introduced to me by some then friends at a party.... I will remember that night forever.. for one reason.. Crystal Method became like a major turning point in my life. Up until then I pretty much hated electronic music (aka...

The Best Album, Ever.

by DjNub , Dec 27 '99
Pros: Everything.
Cons: Probably have to spend 17 bucks to listen to.
The first track of the Crystal Method's album, "Trip Like I Do" is a microcosm of the whole album. Erratic drum accents; ambient keyboards; repetitive, fast moving treble-synth parts and throbbing bass echo back and forth through excellent...

Good as it gets

by jgoldner , Nov 07 '99
Pros: Music is great (isn't that we came for)
Cons: No lyrics to sing along with (maybe that's a plus after all)
The crystal method has probably, by now, made its way into your subconcious. You just didn't know it.

Crystal method's most notable work, "Vegas" has been smoothly smeared over pop culture since it first came out. Notably, the single...

The Best Electronica Tunes Yet

by resree , Dec 14 '99
Pros: The entire album. Great beat. Excellent for any party or dance.
Cons: Jaded - I did not like this song as much as the others, but it is still good.
A long time ago, I was new to techno/electronica/etc. Then I heard "Get Busy Child" by Crystal Method and was hooked. Their music is extremely well done. Every time I listen to them, I want to either chill for awhile or dance my butt off....

Vegas Rocks, without the BS

by paypaldamon , Jul 12 '00
Pros: High-energy
Cons: Not enough on the album and no other albums
Not too long ago, I dismissed most electronic music as not being worthy. Over the past two years this has changed dramatically and this is one of the "bands" that I feel most accurately classifies this art form as being legitimate.

Great Sounds Hardcore

by geo99 , Feb 11 '00
Pros: GROUND Breaking Bass
Cons: NONE
I have purchased this album when I heard the single that really got so much radio play out here in L.A. I just had to see what the hype was about and you guessed , the Ground Breaking Bass Beats mixed with some cool housing grooves has made it Top on...

"I say this to you".....Get this album

by selachii , Dec 09 '99
Pros: Just a great record
Cons: we need a follow up album
I am amazed I still listen to this album almost two years after I bought it. I have never met anyone who had listened to the crystal method who did not like them. This album is good from start to finish. It has more than enough good songs. Most of the...

Take a Trip with Crystal Method

by puppetmaster , Dec 20 '99
Pros: loaded with hit songs, destined to be a classic
Cons: that you haven't purchased it yet
This is one of the most excellent techno/electronic CD’s ever recorded. The first song, “Can You Trip Like I Do”, was in the big hit film, Spawn from a few summer’s ago. And remember that catchy Mazda television commercial with the satellite dishes and...
