Amazing album! Powerful, electric, and contagious, makes you want to jump off your chair! Pelle's screams scratch your soul while the guitar riffs grab you and don't let go. "Hate to say I told you so" is probably the best rock song written in the new millenium.
this album is unbeleviable. the album is the third album from the swedish born band. The album does repeat songs from previous albums but in doing so highlights how good this band actually are. The band have an almost punk rock like sound and you would be forgiven in thinking they were american as the lead singers actcent is american. It has songs such as "hate to say i told you so" "main offender" and "supply and demand".The decision to release such a compilation after only two albums was made with the intention of achieving mainstream success in the UK and the U.S. The Album was featured on the list 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
The sheer energy of this music is simply irrisistable. This CD compiles a number of songs from the Hive's earlier years including the brilliant "Hate to Say I told you so" and "Main Offender". The pace doesn't let up and perhaps the songs later on in the album don't have quite the height of inspiration as the earlier ones, but saying that you are still unlikely to feel disappointed, the album's length at around the half hour mark is just about right. Trying to resist jumping up and down like a loony will be futile... play it LOUD!
Having converted most of my old video collection to DVD I was thrilled to find this film gem in digital format. If you watch this in widescreen format, it really does the battle scene great justice; coupled with surround sound, you'll be gripped by the amazing cinematography. I would recommend the director's cut that includes scenes about the relationship between the lead character and his estranged wife and helps you to understand the motivation behind his decision. The run time is 183 minutes for the directors cut and 120 minutes for the cinema version. I was, however, disappointed by the lack of extras, which any fan of this classic would expect to be included. There's only a 20-minute interview with the director and other shot "making-of" vignettes.
bought this on the back of liking one song,but this is the kind of cd you have to be in the mood for with understanding nieghbours. Its very loud and there guitars sound like there getting a good kicking . i wasnt dissapointed with cd its just like i said not the sort of thing i can listen to all the time. if you want loud guitar thrashing this is your album
