Amazon.com The album title aptly defines the former Motley Crüe drummer's chaotic, highly public personal and musical life. Yet Lee, seemingly ever optimistic, continues to grow and expand musically-and while some of his modern stylings may not be to the liking of old-school Crüe fans, Never a Dull Moment has many honest, memorable moments. The drummer-turned-guitarist (and frontman's) first "solo" album was with rapper Tilo and Lee's Methods of Mayhem band; Never a Dull Moment is much more rock and much more solo, which, ultimately, is a good thing. It's a sort-of mix of Linkin Park and Nickelback--leaning more toward the latter--and Lee melds modern rock with moments of gentleness and the occasional electronic and rap-influenced aggro cut, such as the punky "Face to Face." Though Lee's workable, slightly gruff voice may be one of the disc's weakest elements, the full, ultramelodic choruses on midtempo songs, such as the lovely "Ashamed" (with guest vocals from Deftones singer Chino Moreno), are in cool contrast to balls-out rockers like "Higher." Lee's messages, music, and songs are heartfelt and carefully crafted, and despite Lee's musical baggage, Never a Dull Moment provides many gratifying moments for an open-minded listener. --Katherine Turman Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsNever A Dull Moment.....On this Album kingofrock379 | New York | 11/16/2002 (5 out of 5 stars) "When Tommy Lee left Motley Crue he was heavily criticized for his new musical adventures that he embarked on with Methods of Mayhem, though I liked the album not many did, after he was finished with the touring cycle of the album he went home and reevaluated his career and decided to disband MOM and put out a solo album, and here it is: Never A Dull Moment, not that i need to give the inspiration for the title. What this album does is take elements from Motley Crue and Methods of Mayhem and combine them, so the songs are more rock but there still is the techno/rap element to them. This album unlike the MOM cd also has some excellent ballads such as Why It Is, Ashamed (the new single), and Blue featuring Mike Einziger and Brandon Boyd of Incubus, these songs show that Tommy Lee can actually sing and write songs. The album opens with Afterglow which is a midtempo rock song, great vocals and music. Next song, Hold Me Down, was the first single off the album and actually recieved airplay before radio abandoned the album. There are also some really heavy moments on the album such as Sunday, Higher, and Body Architects, which sound amazing, that's definately what Tommy should be doing, making hard rock songs. The one low point of the album is his version of Fame by David Bowie, I honestly don't know what he was thinking with this one, there's actually not one redeeming quality about the song. Face to Face is another uptempo metal song, personally I think it's about Kid Rock but i don't know for sure. The last song on the album is People So Strange, one of my favorites, great rhythm to it, great vocals, very catchy. The album closes with Mr. S$#@y, which is just an answering machine message from a 'disgruntled' man...haha, but all in all this album is definately worth the money, Tommy really shines, weather it's on guitar, drums, his vocals, or songwriting, it is an all around strong album that i think is essential to any music fan." Great CD, Better than I expected. James Rosenthal | Wyoming, MN USA | 05/25/2002 (4 out of 5 stars) "When I heard Tommy Lee's new single "Hold Me Down" a few months ago I was eager for this CD to come out. I was dissapointed when I heard that this would be coming out on his solo album and not on a Methods of Mayhem album but I bought this CD a couple days ago and thought that it would be good. It met my expectations. He has great slow songs such as "Ashamed" which is one of the true highlights of the album. Another great slow song he has on here is "Blue" which is an great tribute to his father who passed away. Of course there's songs for the heavy metal fans which are great also. "Body Architects" is a great track which is meant to be performed live. One of the more amusing tracks is a remake of David Bowe's "Fame" which sounds a lot different from the original but I thought that Tommy Lee did a great job molding it into his style. Overall I give this CD 4 out of 5 stars because although this CD is really good some of the harder tracks get a little tiring to listen to after awhile. Also even though that this album was good I thought that his Methods of Mayhem album was better."
