Superchick - Reinvention

Artist: Superchick

Album: Reinvention

Release Date: 4/20/10

Label: Inpop Records

Sometimes I wonder if remixes are really worth it, let alone a whole remix album. Superchick just happen to prove me wrong with the release of their newest, entitled Reinvention. A fun mix of some of the band's biggest hits are included, along with an additional three new tracks.

A bit more rock is thrown into the first two songs, "Cross The Line" and "Rock What You Got," changing them into high energy tracks that seem to surpass the originals by a bit. The electronic driven remixes of "Karaoke Superstars" and "Bowling Ball" come off as the most fun of the bunch. Of the three new tracks, "Let It Roll" comes off as the best and is sung completely by bassist Matt Dally. The song "Still Here" seems like just a typical Superchick song, but "With You" surpasses that. A solo venture by Tricia Brock and an acoustic guitar, it comes off as a nice ballad to close off the wide mix of songs.

Rating: 7/10 Superchick does a good job with their remix album entitled Reinvention. Offering up three new songs, the highlight comes with "Let It Roll," which is easily the best track on the album. Reinvention comes off as an above standard remix album, actually giving a better feel to some of the songs and not destroying the originals.
