Editorial Review:

Album Description:
Jewel case version with 8-page booklet.

Amazon.com:
It happens only two tracks in: Just when you're re-acquainting yourself with Simon Le Bon's sexy whine and settling in for a disc full of digestible, modernized new wave, Red Carpet Massacre takes a turn toward the Timberlake-like. By the time you reach track eight, the sizzling instrumental 'Tricked Out,' the effect is so pronounced you can't be sure whose chocolate got into whose peanut butter. But you do know this, and with more certainty than you once placed in the power of the 'Hungry Like the Wolf' video to get you through your teen-age day: Massacre is one hot record. Timbaland, the brilliant knob-twister behind Timberlake's FutureSex/Love Sounds, as well as his protegé, Danja, imbue it with buoyancy and way-past-midnight moodiness; on a couple of tracks, most notably 'Skin Divers,' which includes a short rap verse, Timbaland pitches in on vocals, and on a couple of others, he taps Timberlake to help out. That the contributions of that tag-team of hitmakers take nothing away from the tightness and characteristic chic of the band--that they enhance the hypnotic sheen of Duran Duran, rather than subjugate it--makes a certain sense. After all, if Timberlake brought sexy back, it had probably only been missing since Duran Duran's mid-80s heyday. --Tammy La Gorce

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Duran Duran album I was always hoping they would record.
I always had very mixed feelings about Duran Duran. They were the ultimate 80's band, and I HATE 80's music. But if you look back, they've done some rather classy songs along the way during their long career. Admittedly, for me, they've been few and far between, but I do think that the following songs deserve some respect: Planet Earth, Save A Prayer, Notorious, Skin Trade, I Don't Want Your Love, All She Wants Is, Ordinary World, Come Undone, Someone Else Not Me, Pop Trash. And pretty much every song off Red Carpet Massacre. I don't care that much for the title track, but the majority of the other songs are of a very high standard, my favorites being: The Timbaland productions Night Runner, Skin Divers, and Tempted, as well as Falling Down (their best ballad since Ordinary World), Box O' Honey and She's Too Much (seemingly about Simon Le Bon's daughter).



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Be sure to pick this one up!
I honestly feel this is one of duran durans top 3 albums. Right up there with Rio & The Wedding Album..... Astronaut was excellent as well. All 12 tracks on this disc are solid. Tons of harmony,solid beats & typical strong lyrics & melody from Le Bon. Wish there was a little more guitar on the disc although Falling Down has some nice guitar work on it. As far as pop albums go this is a top notch effort. Very worth yof 4 stars. My favorite tracks are The Valley, Tempted, Shes too much, & Dirty Great Monster.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - You need your ears washing out!
You 'so called Duran Duran fans' need your ears washing out! This is a good album! Some DD fans siad the same about Pop Trash and Medazzaland, and they are good albums. I like this a lot better than the wedding Album. Give it a chance. 5 stars easy!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Red carpet massacre
A message to DD from a very long time fan, act your age, please. This album is RUBBISH !!!!!!
