More Harm Than Good

"This album disappointed me greatly. I felt that each remix detracted from the original. I think a remix should either improve on the original or transform the original into something new and captivating, which is just not happening on this album. The one exception is "Posed To Death" (remix by The Calculators). The interweaving male and female vocals complement eachother beautifully. Unfortunately, the rest of the album is monotonous, shallow and poorly composed."
More Bang for the Buck

"Danse Macabre was a great cd but the remixes just had more zing if you're into pushing your subs to their fullest. It's more of an ear candy release. It's like.. "lets take the Faint and turn the songs into something that would be a good soundtrack for a nightclub scene in some action flick". Danse Macabre is more for my indoor listening pleasure and the remixes are for the car when I like to rattle windows as I drive by. Just two different ways to enjoy the Faint."
Worth checking out...

"Don't go by the negative reviews from the others. This is a definitely a great remix set from The Faint from their Danse Macabre album of a couple of years ago. All of the remixes are top notch with my favorite being Glass Danse remixed by Paul Oakenfold. The Conductor remixed by Thin White Duke is another wonderful remix taking the original and making it very club friendly. My other 2 favorite remixes on here are Agenda Suicide by Jagz Kooner and Your Retro Career by Ursula 1000. Overall though every single remix on here are good. Definitely worth it if you are into remixes or electronica.
