Bush - Deconstructed

Odder than odd, this remix album removes much of what listeners closely associate as being what Bush is about (pop-Nirvana clones) and turns the focus onto the then-expected electronica craze. "Everything Zen" is remixed twice and given audibly different treatments. The Derek DeLarge mix, in particular, barely keeps the song in place. The emphasis on so much drums and bass from a band not known for their rhythmic abilities (Bush excel with the stop-and-start, not the keep-on-groovin') creates an entirely new group--one which ironically should appeal to folks who never cared in the first place. Not a bad experiment. --Rob O'Connor
