Customer Reviews:

hide overly influenced by the american members of the band.......2007-04-21

Part of hide's charm was his free-wheeling venture into all different styles of rock music. Here, the american producers of the album seem to have targeted it to a particular industrial-explicit niche, losing a lot of the lightness, humor, and experimentation found in hide's other albums. The english lyrics to Doubt and Pose seem to be guitarist's McVeigh's setting of some standard western rock lyrics to the music and just don't sound right. The musicians are excellent and the mix great, but I don't find any of the songs particularly memorable.

Hide can't sing.......2006-01-06

I bought this because I recently saw The Philistines and noticed that Ray McVeigh, an outstanding guitarist, had a Zilch sticker on his guitar. He produced and plays on this CD.
The music is a 4, great sonic tracks with driving guitars and music that takes chances, although it frequently opts for riff-laden techno grooves. But the singing I'd have to rate as a 2-or less. I just don't see what the fuss is about with Hide's singing; I found it grating on every track, and his lyrics are puerile, almost always focused on sex. Gets a little old. If I could wipe the vocals track off this CD, I would. It would be a lot better.

Hide's Rock Spirits Forever!.......2002-09-20

Zilch, 3-person band, with a Japanse vocalist (who made all the music), HIDE and two American guitarists, made revolutionary sounds breaking free from the traditional rocks throughout 1960's - '80's. Their sound so solid and the rhythm so speedy words so powerful, they can instantly knock you down. HIDE, this soulful rock singer from Japan, is an artist (originallly a skillful yet soulful guitarist) with natural talent as a melody maker and an instinct for turning anything rock. The words are with a contrasting combination of romaticism and sarcasm. It is a shame that some of the meanings of POSE and DOUBT seem to have been lost while the Japanese words writtten by HIDE were trans"formed" (not translated) into Engligh. But most of the songs are well transformed and the music itself is so powerful. It is the last album he has created with other Zilch members as he passed away due to an accident in 1998 but he stays as a charismatic figure (in Japan) and will continue to attract thousand of souls worldwide. HIDE's rock spirits foreever!!
