Classic Album Review: Various Artists | Family Values Tour ’98

This soundtrack to the metal megatour has plenty of bang (& bands) for the buck.

This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):

 


Family values may not be in the offing, but you will get plenty of value for your entertainment dollar with this multi-band live CD from last fall’s heavy metal megatour.

The 66-minute outing has 21 tracks from seven acts — Incubus, Orgy, Limp Bizkit, Ice Cube, Rammstein, DJ C-Minus and headliners Korn. Sure, with the exception of Cube’s explosive gangsta rap and Rammstein’s Teutonic boom, it can be tough to tell the rest of these rap-metal funkateers from one another. But for fans, that just means more bang for the buck.
