Foiled Again...

Blue October re-relesed their album Foiled. And to be honest...I have no idea what to think about it. The original release was amazing and they didn't do too much to it this time around. They added a rerecording of "Calling You" (Which I find to be inferior to the original) and two remixes of "X Amount of Words" Any one who knows me would expect me to be uber excited about this. I'm a huge remix nerd and "X Amount of Words" is one of my favorite Blue October songs. But both remixes (one by the legendary Paul Oakenfold) fall short of the original. So is there any reason to consider buying the re-release if you already own the original. Yes, there is one. They included a disk called "Teach Your Baby Well Live" which documents the Blue October experience live. Now this disk will not turn the music world on its ear but it does showcase of well Blue October performs live. If you don't own Foiled already this is a great purchase. If your already lucky enough to own a copy save your cash and get a copy of their new album Approaching Normal
