Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
The first studio album from Alanis Morissette since 2004, Flavors Of Entanglement fuses the organic and the techno—prompted by producer Guy Sigsworth (Madonna, Björk). Incorporating beats, loops and synthesizers, the album was designed, says Morissette, so listeners can 'dance your face off.' Balancing introspective confession and delirious joy, the global and the personal, Flavors Of Entanglement is a tasty new musical feast from one of pop’s most intriguing artists.
Amazon.co.uk :
Though the mainstream might have all but abandoned Alanis Morrissette since her mid-90s breakthrough as the MTV grunge generation’s Madonna, she has forged on with a handful of albums of a reasonably steely consistency, although even kindly ears would recognize her output since Jagged Little Pill as reduced strength versions of that celebrated album. Its slightly convoluted follow up, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, remains her most intriguing if long-winded work, and with her most recent record (2004’s So Called Chaos) more or less finding peace with itself--filing down the angsty internal dialogues and sounding almost content even at its loudest points--the future seemed to be heading on a downward spiral. But talk about an about turn. With Flavours Of Entanglement the bronco is very much bucking once more, often causing whiplash-inducing stylistic swerves. 'Citizen Of The Planet' opens the album, erupting out of eastern strings and a sequenced underlay with blunt, compressed guitars and thumping beats, sweeping through desolate plains previously inhabited by nu metal fantasists Evanescence. The dark tension is upheld through the robotic techno of 'Straightjacket' and dark string-laden drum ‘n’ bass of 'Moratorium.' Landing amid the lonely Tori Amos balladry of 'Not As We,' Texas-pop of 'In Praise Of The Vulnerable Man,' and the more typical Alanis fare of 'Underneath,' this is an often unsettlingly mixed bag achieving varying levels of success, but it is also probably her most emotionally satisfying work for a decade. -- James Berry

Rating: - A little Above Average
There are some very favorable reviews of this CD and I liked it mostly too but I still expect more from a Morrisette CD.
The first few songs are forgettable - "Underneath", "StraightJacket" and "Versions of Violence".
"Not as We" is about the harsh end of a romantic relationship and it very good and pure:
"Day one day one start over again
Step one step one
I'm barely making sense for now
I'm faking it I'm pseudo making ... Read More
Rating:  - Her best since Jagged Little Pill
This is her best work since Jagged Little Pill.Some her latest stuff has been a little weird, but not this one.It is great!
Rating: - Delicious Flavors
This is probably my favorite album by Alanis and at four years since her last one, well worth the wait. Combining Alanis's rock sensibilities with techno courtesy of producer Guy Sigsworth who has previously worked with Madonna and Bjork, this is a masterful work of art. My favorite tracks include the Mid-Eastern/Indian flavored "Citizen Of The Planet" (sample lyric- "I am a citizen of the planet. My president is kwan yin. My frontier is on an airplane. My prisons: homes for rehabilitating.") which ... Read More
Rating:  - This is my first Alanis Morisette album........
...but whether it will be the last remains to be seen. OK, the disclaimer; I bought it because it was featured at Starbucks, my Starbucks stock is not feeling well.... After the first few cuts, I was ready to toss it...the liberal political bilge of "Citizen of the Planet", and "Underneath", the gross vulgarity of "Strait Jacket"...then she got to the softer numbers, and I was forced to render a grudging respect. [Yes, I've listened to it several times; no one should review after one hearing]...... ... Read More
Rating: - Alanis at her best
This Alanis is more cutting - reverted to some of the stylings of Jagged Little Pill - but I'm not the first to state this, by any means.I could listen to Alanis' word stylings alone all day.She is a word majician - and a word stylist majician in both their extreme complexities.Her writing capability, that voice and the driving sound that made her what she's been for a long time... that's my Alanis.
