[T]he gloriously melodic, pop-rock sheen of the best moments in this follow-up collection are going to leave lots of Hole fans puzzled. But don't be misled. Courtney Love may be embracing power pop, but she hasn't gone soft. Versace gown and all, she's still got a fiery rock 'n'roll heart. --\nThe Los Angeles Times\n\n[Courtney Love] sounds less razor-edged, more anonymous. From start to almost finish,\nCelebrity Skin is dogged by that same sense of vacillation and rootlessness. It's the sound of a returning hero who attempts to act as if nothing's changed--when, in fact, everything has, including the hero.... [I]ts rough edges sanded down, [this is] a singularly dispiriting experience. It's the music business' take on the current climate of celebrity makeover; aural plastic surgery. --\nEntertainment Weekly\n\n\nAmazon.ca\n\n\nWhen last we saw Courtney Love, she was performing on the silver screen and posing for Versace, a far cry from her formative days stumbling across stages wearing ripped thrift-store clothing. But Love's Hollywood transformation is just the latest in her crusade for adoration, whatever the environment. And\nCelebrity Skin is just the latest manifestation of that obsession. Instead of screaming in rage over a muscular din of power chords, Love sings in a restrained, melodic alto voice; the band matches the euphony with rhythms and hooks that draw from such mainstream acts as Fleetwood Mac, the Go-Go's, and, of course, Smashing Pumpkins, whose frontman, Billy Corgan, co-wrote five songs. What makes\nCelebrity Skin more than another good rock album, however, is Love's lyrics, which remain confessional and scathing, addressing such topics as physical abuse (\"Hit So Hard\"), drugs (\"Use Once and Destroy\"), the music industry (\"Awful\", \"Boys on the Radio\"), and her late husband's suicide (\"Reasons to Be Beautiful\"). If nothing else,\nCelebrity Skin is proof to all the skeptics that superstars have feelings, too.\n--Jon Wiederhorn\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 720642516423\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 0720642516423\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Audio CD\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eItem Condition:\u003c\/b\u003e UsedVeryGood\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ID Shop.ca","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45932502450210,"sku":"9R-S3NB-8ZXF","price":3.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0889\/9428\/3554\/files\/51rdDkhHXZL.jpg?v=1783578016","url":"https:\/\/kastor.club\/products\/hole-celebrity-skin-cd-used","provider":"Kastor","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
