2.0 poor | davezillaMP3 | July 26th 20 | Me: Hey Mom, can we have Linkin park?
Mom: No we have Linkin Park at home
Linkin Park at home
But hey, at least its an improvement from the debut. Still, it is proof Rivers pretty much has a
knack for making poor life choices

3.5 great | cloakanddagger | January 26th 18 | The Gift of Game is pure shite but Crazy Town wrote some underrated gems on this album. Not a fantastic record but definitely a fun one.

2.5 average | KayCato | February 1st 16 | Some songs on here are straight up unlistenable, but the boys in Crazy Town really showed some heartfelt moments and wrote some memorable songs. Drowning kicks ass.

2.0 poor | Jared Floryan | November 30th 15 | Nu-metal outfit Crazy Town's debut full-length record, The Gift of Game, showed that they were without any shadow of a doubt one of the worst bands in the subgenre; how much this is saying, though, will of course vary from person to person. Possibly in an attempt to gain a broader audience or mature as songwriters, Crazy Town would eventually release this album right here. Entitled Darkhorse, CT's sophomore album is more serious in tone and sounds quite similar to Linkin Park; in fact, they sound so much like the latter act that you swear they might've ripped them off out of desperation. After all, there's a bit of a difference between inspirations and cheap knockoffs IMO. Darkhorse, while not a good record when judged on its own merits, is nowhere near as painful to venture through as its predecessor was - although that's like saying letting Adam Sandler yell in one's ear is preferable to having Seth MacFarlane scream real loud in your ass. Stupid analogy aside, I wouldn't recommend this record or The Gift of Game.

2.0 poor | DatsNotDaMetulz | November 30th 15 | 1. Decorated 2. Hurt You So Bad 3. Battle Cry 4. Change 5. Drowning -- That should have been the
track list. Had they released Darkhorse as an EP like that, it would have been a 3.5/5 for me. The
problem was they couldn't do an album without excessive filler and macho posturing. Maybe if this
had been an EP, it would have bought them more time to release a credible album and sustain some
success instead of the implosion that happened as a result.

0.0 | bloc | March 11th 10 | Crazy Town step it up with a more serious approach to song writing. Most of the tracks are still nothing special, but it all depends on the listener. There are still the familiar "fuck my ex" tunes such as Waste of My Time but with solid rock hits like Decorated or Drowning this album really has potential to connect with angst ridden teens or maybe just us regular folk.
