This is great!!!.......2007-03-13
All the songs are great on this!!!! I would defintely recommend this to people!!!!! I think this is a awesome greatest hits!!! I have all Limp Bizkit's CDs and would recommend them to anyone who likes metal (yes nu-metal is metal) and anyone who just likes having fun, because honestly there are not that many bands out there that are fun like these guys!!! 1 question for all the people who hate this band, why if you hate Limp bizkit so much would you take the time to review their CDs? People call Limp Bizkit fans idiots, but I think its a lot of Limp Bizkit haters who are idiots, who can't have a little fun! I don't think even think a lot of them hate Limp Bizkit, they just don't want to be "uncool" and like Limp Bizkit. Don't listen to people's stupid biased opinions, buy Limp Bizkit CDs!!
The new songs suck.......2007-02-15
Was Fred Durst a great lyricist and vocalist? Nope. Was Wes Borland an innovative guitar player? Not even close. But for fifteen minutes sometime in the 90's, we were all picking up what they we're putting down, and we loved every minute of it. There are only one or two good songs on each Limp Bizkit album anyway, so now you can have them all on one disc. The new songs suck.
Them bizkit'z aren't the only thing thats limp.......2007-02-10
This band sucks. Always did, always will. Fred Durst and Vanilla ice have a lot in common, if you know what I mean. And spelling hits with a z instead of an s shows just how phoney these retards are. Listen to this for laughs or to induce vomiting. Depending on what affects you're after.
IMITATION METAL 0/5 stars.......2006-12-28
Im just glad this imitational metal fad band is finished fred lived the lavish life for several years and now most of us exfans went our separate ways and found are true taste in real metal. Why did fred released a greatist hits cd? they were never any good and spelling hits improperly with a Z at the end is just stupid childish and laughable. Not only is this cd a pathetic worthless joke but fred had added songs that didn't even belong to him on his own greatist hits album which he should be adding only his own songs that he wrote not other peoples songs. now thats just saying he's taking credit for other peoples songs and he's greedy for money.
Sure all the singles are on here--but many are EDITS.......2006-11-12
If you are a casual fan of Limp Bizkit and were just hoping to have all the big singles that used to be on TRL and stuff on one disc, this CD comes as a disappointment. At least HALF the songs on here are significantly shorter than on the actual CDs they come from, starting with the first big huge tracks, Counterfeit, Faith and Nookie, which, if you look on itunes, are each listed as the "greatest hits" versions, which I assume means edits so that they could fit more songs on one disc. Too bad. This could have been a convenient way to get all the complete versions of theirs songs on one disc so you wouldn't have to buy each individual CD.

Positive review.......2007-05-18
Paul Gilbert and Co., on their debute album. Razor sharp GTR riffs,
pounding drums and good bass licks, is what you're in for on this CD.
Racer X's is a great band. They have very little air play, and didn't
have enough exposure.
If you're a fan of 80's metal and all things guitar, this is one that
should be in your collection.
gogilbert.......2006-07-22
do you like electrical guitar. well, then you can't ignore listening to this album. this is one of the most awesome guitarist performances I've ever heard. Paul Gilbert is a golden boy borned to play the guitar. don't worry about hearing something silly and stupid, because this is really good stuff you'll be hearing. thank you Paul for being alive!
amazing 80s real heavy metal!.......2006-03-26
HAIR-POP-''POSER''METAL OR WHATEVER, RULES THE GAME DURING THIS ERA BUT PAUL GILBERT AND THE BOYS ARE READY TO STRIKE WITH THIS AMAZING METAL RELEASE, WHICH FOR ME IS AS GOOD AS ''SCREAMING FOR VENGEANCE''OF JUDAS PRIEST!
AFTER ALL I REALLY BELIEVE THAT RACER X AND RELEASES LIKE ''STREET LETHAL''WAS A ''KISS OF LIFE'' FOR HEAVY METAL, ESPECIALLY IN THE STATES WHERE LIPSTICK AND MAKEUP DURING 80S WERE A ''DISEASE'' FOR THE ICON OF HEAVY ROCK IN GENERAL.
SO FRIENDS ALL OVER THE WORLD DO YOUR SELF A FAVOR AND BYE THIS CD OR BETTER BYE IT WITH THE SECOND RELEASE OF RACER X WHICH IS REALLY AS AMAZING AS THE FIRST.
e.g I DONT GIVE 5 STARS ONLY BECAUSE I PREFER ENGLISH METAL IN GENERAL BUT THAT'S MY PROBLEM MAN...SO BYE IT!!!
Genesis of Racer X.......2004-11-18
If your a fan of 80's music, or a fan of great guitar work in general, you will LOVE this album. Not only does Paul Gilbert demonstrate his superb guitar work, it also shows the power of the other band members as well. This is the Genesis album of Racer X, and is in itself an awesome demonstration of Rock and Roll. Gilberts terrifying guitar licks and the intense drums, bass and vocals will blow you away! If your an aspiring musician, you will enjoy Pauls guitar wizardry on this album. Also purchase Second Heat for more intense action.
DONT MISS OUT! BUY THIS TODAY!

Back-to-back tracks in the middle of Lethal Injection are all the proof we need that Ice Cube is a great talent. "What Can I Do?" opens with a strings-and-wah-wah motif from an early-'70s blaxploitation film and follows with a "Superfly" tale about a high-level drug dealer. Next up is "Lil Ass Gee," the story of a 12-year-old wanna-be gangster. Just a few years ago he was playing with G.I. Joe dolls, and now he's playing with real guns and making real babies. On both numbers, the rapper's rich, resonant baritone bleeds into the synth strings with a sense of fatefulness that's chilling to hear. But Ice Cube's career is a tragedy. A mesmerizing storyteller, a seductive vocalist, and a brilliantly inventive producer of aural collages, the Compton homeboy has squandered his talent on a vision so poisoned by right-wing racism and sexism that it has lost all credibility. --Geoffrey Himes

Ice Cube Hitting You With Some P-Funk Rhymes For The Nine-Tre (4 Stars).......2006-06-20
Ice Cube's 4th full album Lethal Injection would produce more great results comming off his most commercial LP (back in the early 90's) The Preditor. Compared to albums such as Amerikka's Most Wanted/Kill At Will and Death Certificate, a more older Ice Cube would come on this album with less gang related topics and less pro-black rhyme structure. Hooking up with a producer named q d III most parts throughout the album come off sucessful, and at the same time, more laid back (I guess Cube's production skills wern't in full swing yet back in '93). "Really Doe", "Cave B***h" (despite how racial you think that song is), "Lil A** Gee" would be the only few songs that will take you back to the early days of Ice Cube. The latter would be a song on the effect on little kids getting caught up in gangbanging. "Ghetto Bird" is an ode to those high speed chases that often occur in Los Angeles. The soft atmosphere occurs on most tracks as songs like "You Know How We Do It", "Make It Ruff, Make It Smooth" and "When I Get To Heaven" would play off well, but at the same time, might have left old Cube fans scratching their heads ("Down For Whatever" couldn't have been any slower). Despite the eleven minute long song "Bop Gun", that will make you nod your head to the uplifting p funk tune of George Clinton's (who ironically appears on this track) "One Nation Under A Groove".
If you purchased this after 2003, you would get four extra tracks (mostly taken from his Bootlegs & B Sides album) of remixes of the hits. ATCQ's Ali Shaheed Muhummad would remix "What Can i Do" with a beat that doesn't sound like Cube would be confortable with but pulls it off anyway. Cube himself would remix "You Know How We Do It" making it sound better than the origonal.
Overall, this album is solid release from Cube that I enjoyed at most parts. No he doesn't carry the same tone as he did back in his NWA days, but hits us with something more relaxing. People say that this is Cube's worst album that he released between 1990 and 1993, but that doesn't mean that it's a bad album (personally I believe The Preditor was his worst), and has been sucessful in many points, reading that it was his second most selling album behind The Preditor. This one I recommend picking up, it carries its weight for the majority.

love this cd it's dark, gangster, and ghetto.......2006-03-28
love the concept if you're white and is easily offended this isn't for you cave bitch is a song where cube disses white women and gives praise to the beautiful black woman enemy is a song where cube says kill all the white devil and even mocks dr. king cube also states his views on christianity on when I get to heaven, you know how wwe do it, really doe are straight classics I love this cd my favorite is bop gun with george clinton a remake of funkadelic's one nation under a groove ice cube sampled the hell out of p funk and working with the doctor was a must for him.
Buck tha Devil.......2005-12-21
I don't really agree with that as I am a Cracker myself, but for some reason I did find myself enjoying this album. Of all Ice Cube's early work this is often considered his weakest, and lyrically maybe it is, however the production on Lethal Injection is excellent. Finally Ice Cube embraces the G Funk sound popularised by Dr Dre and Co, and he enlists the help of producers like QDIII, to help him create that fonky sound.
The album starts off with the intro, the shot, where cube as a doctor, gives a shot (literally) to his patient, Mr White (pun intented). This sets the tone for much of what comes in the album, and though I don't agree with many of Cube's opinions, for obvious reasons, most of the songs on here are at least good. It kicks off with Really Doe a great track followed by Ghetto Bird, another superb song, the best on the album though is definetely You Know How We Do It, which is one of my favourite Cube tracks of all time. It has that laid back G Funk sound, and is just a great track. Other notable tracks are Bop Gun (though I prefer the shorter version), What Can I Do?, When I Get To Heaven and Enemy, which has a great beat though I don't condone shooting devils.
I don't know why this album took so much criticism, all in all it is a good listen, though tracks like Cave Bi*ch do let this down. It is basically Ice Cube saying how he would never f*ck a White Bi*ch and it's just a stupid song, though I couldn't help but laugh when I first heard it. While I can understand why he is annoyed at White Society, Cave Bitch is really nothing more than a racist rant. Probably that track got more criticism than anything else, this is a good album otherwise though, maybe not Cube's best, but recommended
The Good Yet, Under-R8ed Album!.......2005-11-06
I am a fan of Cube, if it wasn't for Cube & Cypress Hill I wouldn't be into any Classic Gangsta Rap, I personally think Lethal Injection is much better than Amerikkka's Most Wanted or Death Certificate, though if it weren't for 1992's The Predator, I wouldn't be in to Cube! The song Down 4 Whatever has the nice Gangsta Beat thats real slow, but What Can I Do? (Westside-mix) has the hardest beat off the Album! But I don't care who you are, if your a West Coaster like me, the song You Know How We Do It has the best flow, and probably is 1 of Cube's best hits! Cave Bitch is a pretty Funny ass song 2!
Overall, 2 me 1994 release Lethal Injection is 2nd to The Predator, here we go..... best songs are 3, *4, 5, 7, 8, 9, *10, 12, *13, 14, *15 & 16.
4th Solo is tight -- maybe his best.......2005-10-15
Another year and another Cube album, this may be my favorite solo of his I have (I don't have "AmeriKKKas Nightmare" & War & Peace Vol. 1"). Many don't like this as much as his first 3, the content and sound changed with the times, and I like it more then his first 3 albums. Only 11 songs but still a hot CD. Guests drop in on 2 of the 11 song, so alot of Cube still gets heard. Of the 11, 2 are classics, 1 is a near classic, 3 I skip, 2 are ok and the others are good. His lyrics are less political/racial on this one and the production is different then his previuos 3, it has the mosre upbeat west coast G-Funk sound, which I like better. QDIII does 4 songs, Madness & Brian G each do 2, and Sir Jinx, 88X Unit, and Derrick McDowell each do 1 song. A must have for Cube fans.
#2 - 7.5 (50 sec. intro before he raps)
#3 - 10 (CLASSIC --- GREAT beat -- one of his best songs ever)
#4 - 10 (CLASSIC -- great relaxing beat)
#5 - 8 (1 min. intro before he raps -- tight beat)
#6 - 9.5 (f/ George Clinton -- tight beat)
#7 - 7.5
#8 - 6
#9 - 8.5 (f/ K-Dee)
#10 - 4.5
#11 - 6 (45 sec. intro before rapping)
#12 - 8 (45 sec. intro before rapping)

Great CD.......2007-04-07
I remember when I 1st got this cd a loooooong time ago. I was upset how I thought it sucked, I really didn't care for it besides like three tracks. One day...well night I had nothing to do so I took my iPod and got the lyrics out and just listen to the whole cd through while reading the lyrics. That I think just helped me made me understand the album even more then when I 1st listen to it and just skimed the lyrics a few times and just listening to it whileplaying video games, reading, or whatever. This is a great solid cd. If your a fan of heavy metal then you really need to check out this cd. I highly recomend getting this cd.
Some Sympathy.......2006-09-22
As an album it's very repettitive kinda punkish metal, but also compared to Use Once and Destroy it's even worse. I was skeptical when Phil made a new band, but with the release of Use Once and Destroy I had no need to worry until now. I really don't think this band'll go anywhere compared to Down and Pantera. I love Phil as a metal vocalist and hey with these guys he sounds even heavier, but everything's just to basic.
Good stuff........2006-02-15
1,2,1,2,3,4.
This CD is my favorite Sesame Street recording. Phil Anselmo counts off songs like he's Count Dragula.
Never mind that.
This album is the greatest thing to come out of New Orleans since exposing yourself in public.
I give this CD 5 stars, but who's counting.
Good hardcore.......2006-02-09
Many music fans are quick to dismiss Phil Anselmo's side projects because they hastened Pantera's break-up. But once you really give Superjoint Ritual a shot, and realize that this band's sound is quite different from Phil's other bands (like Pantera), you will probably come to enjoy "A Lethal Dose of American Hatred" quite a bit. This is a good hardcore album; it's full of meaty, Sabbath-y, doom-y riffs, pounding drums, and howling vocals. Several of these tracks (i.e. the blistering and ultra-heavy "Permanently") crush anything on "St. Anger," and are easily among the best metal songs of 2003. Songs like "Dress Like A Target" and "Stealing A Page Or Two From Armed & Radical Pagans" (catchy title!) feature lurching riffs which sound tailor-made for headbanging, thumping drums, and Phil's constipated grunting. Other highlights include the heavy, grooving guitars and strangulated howl on the album opener, "Sickness," the almost buzzsaw riffs on "Personal Insult," and "Never To Sit Or Stand Again" (which has a few really long, tortured yells and a pounding rhythm). The album, as a whole, is too short, and many of the songs begin the same way (with Phil counting "One, two, three..."), but all in all, it's a very solid release. And if you're craving a dose of Phil, and you don't yet own this album...what are you waiting for?!
Are you kidding me.......2005-09-22
I read these reviews first then I listened. In no way can I take seriously a discussion of musical style or lyric content concerning this disc. Vocal quality ... there is no quality no talent needed to produce that gutteral nonsensical sound. Musicianship, none is present here. Lyric ... simplistic deluded are the only words to describe.

Cheer Down et al.......2007-01-05
I have to admit that I haven't heard the entire soundtrack, but, on the strength of "Cheer Down" alone, it's worth the purchase. George Harrison wrote and performed the song in that very rich, creative period for him and the rest of the Traveling Wilburys (Vol. 1, Full Moon Fever by Petty, Cloud Nine by Harrison, Mystery Girl by Orbison, etc.) Not surprisingly, George has help from fellow Wilbury, Jeff Lynne, with instruments, vocals and production. The lyrics are great, the kind of tongue-in-cheek cynicism that found its way into a lot of Beatles songs (like Lennon's contribution to "Getting Better," "It can't get no worse.")
I can see by your grin
That you're trembling within
It's all over town, cheer down
And the smile on your face
Is sometimes out of place
Don't mind, no frowns, cheer down.
***
When your teeth drop out
You'll get by even without taking a bite
If there's a weakness it the song it's Jim Keltner's boring drumming. Every song he's ever played on with Harrison or the other Wilburys has had the same simple, boring back beat. Thing song's otherwise brilliantly instrumentally and vocally.
You may not NEED to buy Lethal Weapon 2 soundtrack to get this song. It found its way onto Harrison's second greatest hits package, Dark Horse. You might also be able to found it as a CD or cassette single (which I have.)
What about the rest of the soundtrack? Who cares. It has one of George's best solo songs on it.
Lethal Weapon 1 Soundtrack Question.......2005-03-17
Apparently it was released on CD for the first (and only) time in 2002. Only 3000 printings were made. I have not found one copy for sale on any major or minor websites. If anyone knows a website, or a major store (eg. the Virgin Megastore in NY) that has a copy please post. Also, it is suprising that so few copies were made for a soundtrack of a movie that grossed so much. Older, less successful movies still have available soundtracks. Can anyone shed some light on these questions? Thanks
Wonderful, groovy Jazzy tunes.......2004-12-13
This soundtrack has to be the best of the Lethal Weapon soundtracks. With the great George Harrison singing "Cheer Down" with incredible ryhthm and Randy Crawford performing "Knockin' On Heaven's Door". Just for these two this OST is worthy.
The real gem however is the collaborations of Eric Clapton and David Sanborn. Just listen to track 4 ("Riggs"), Sanborn's saxophone and Clapton's electronic guitar merge perfectly to create one of the most groovy tunes I have ever had the pleasure to listen to. Simply perfect.
The late Michael Kamen does an incredible job of orchestrating the other tunes in this OST as well.
Well worth the price, if you ever loved the LW series or just like jazzy tunes in general, then this is for you. This is a soundtrack that have stayed with me for years and I still like to listen to it while cruising in my car.
Awesome soundtrack with powerful themes and guitar riffs.......2004-06-07
The soundtrack to lethal weapon 2 is absolutely beautiful; the theme in 'Riggs and Roger' that recurs in 'Goodnight Rika' and 'Riggs' is powerful and moving; Georfe Harrison's 'Cheer Down' represents brilliant rock and roll; and the other tracks are instrumental rock and roll beauty. All in all it is a wonderful soundtrack to accompany a wonderful movie.
George at his best.......2003-06-20
Can't say as I have heard the album.....but...."Cheer Down" as performed by the late, great George Harrison is one of the finest songs of it's genre...the lyrics are absolutely dripping with cycnicism....its also got a nice melody too....
I bought the album purely on the strength of this song alone.....Beatle fans everywhere....you won't be disappointed by this offering....the album is worth it for this song alone....forget the rest....this song is George at his best...

An overdose I can deal with.......2006-12-05
Ice Cube continues the conscious music/gangsta rap path on this 4th album Lethal Injection. Let's see how many gems we can pull out of this one. Standout Tracks: REALLY DOE, GHETTO BIRD, YOU KNOW HOW WE DO IT(original and remix are cool with me), CAVEB***H(RIP Khalled Abdul Mohammed), WHAT CAN I DO(original and remixes), LIL A** GEE(the eerie gumbo mix is my s***), WHEN I GET TO HEAVEN(Funny but truthful). Filler: Make it ruff, make it smooth(weak plus K-dee's verses were kind of corny) and Enemy(this song sounds like it was put together on the spot). Bottom Line: Lethal Injection is not a garbage album like these crackpots want you to believe. The production was westcoast tight and Ice Cube's lyrics are sharp and to the point. Songs like What Can I Do, Lil A** Gee, When I get to heaven and Cavebitch still ring true to this day. Definetly collection material here.
Really Dope........2006-02-06
I have to admit, I listened to this album constantly when it came out. It's what I think of as Ice Cube's g-funk album. I say that because I think this was his answer to "The Chronic" and "Doggystyle". A few tracks I don't care for much, but the better ones make it worth owning. "Really Doe" and "Ghetto Bird" are both great, and "You Know How We Do It" is a cruising classic. "Bop Gun" is a sweet party track, because of it's length, and the fact that George Clinton is on it. I also dig the groovy "Make It Rough, Make It Smooth", "Down For Whatever", and "When I Get To Heaven". All on the mellow side. As for the bonus tracks, I don't think they're half as good as the bonus tracks on "The Predator", but with the remastering I'll take 'em. This is also another Cube disc that's heavy on the pro-black/anti-white thing, fyi. Still though, a must for bigger fans, others can probably stick with the "Hits".
Ice Cube Hittin You With Some P Funk Rhymes For The Nine-Tre (4 star).......2006-01-19
Ice Cube's 4th full album Lethal Injection would produce more great results comming off his most commercial LP (back in the early 90's) The Preditor. Compared to albums such as Amerikka's Most Wanted/Kill At Will and Death Certificate, a more older Ice Cube would come on this album with less gang related topics and less pro-black rhyme structure. Hooking up with a producer named q d III most parts throughout the album come off sucessful, and at the same time, more laid back (I guess Cube's production skills wern't in full swing yet back in '93). "Really Doe", "Cave B***h" (despite how racial you think that song is), "Lil A** Gee" would be the only few songs that will take you back to the early days of Ice Cube. The latter would be a song on the effect on little kids getting caught up in gangbanging. "Ghetto Bird" is an ode to those high speed chases that often occur in Los Angeles. The soft atmosphere occurs on most tracks as songs like "You Know How We Do It", "Make It Ruff, Make It Smooth" and "When I Get To Heaven" would play off well, but at the same time, might have left old Cube fans scratching their heads ("Down For Whatever" couldn't have been any slower). Despite the eleven minute long song "Bop Gun", that will make you nod your head to the uplifting p funk tune of George Clinton's (who ironically appears on this track) "One Nation Under A Groove".
If you purchased this after 2003, you would get four extra tracks (mostly taken from his Bootlegs & B Sides album) of remixes of the hits. ATCQ's Ali Shaheed Muhummad would remix "What Can i Do" with a beat that doesn't sound like Cube would be confortable with but pulls it off anyway. Cube himself would remix "You Know How We Do It" making it sound better than the origonal.
Overall, this album is solid release from Cube that I enjoyed at most parts. No he doesn't carry the same tone as he did back in his NWA days, but hits us with something more relaxing. People say that this is Cube's worst album that he released between 1990 and 1993, but that doesn't mean that it's a bad album (personally I believe The Preditor was his worst), and has been sucessful in many points, reading that it was his second most selling album behind The Preditor. This one I recommend picking up, it carries its weight for the majority.

underrated.......2006-01-01
Ice Cube comes back with this darker sound after the predator. a lot of people don't feel this album, i think because it is so much darker and crazier. the sound is still funky, and personnally i really dig it, some of ice cube's best work on here (see song two "really doe").
all in all, highly recommended
under-rated, way better than Predator.......2005-11-13
This ones under-rated and didnt get as much attention as The Predator. It stomps PRedator and was a comeback album of the year back in 95 for cube. Probably the best beats of any Cube album and his lyrics are still on point. Not as innovative or original as classics like Amerikka and Death Certificate, but satisfying nonetheless. Ghetto Bird is a west coast classic, with an off the hook beat. Cube is not as insightful as on earlier albums but still the bigot you love to hate, flinging hatred towards inter-racial daters, christians, and fully supporting radical black power movements as always. This would be his last tight album. Lethal Injection,although not Cube's best work, is still better than 90% of the garbage rappers drop today.

"The Drowning Man Knows His God" is a song title that immediately lets you in on just what kind of nouveau surf band the Mermen are: a strange, mysterious one best approached with caution. Guitarist Jim Thomas picks up the gauntlet thrown down by thrash master Dick Dale, in turn tossing it into realms of overamped sound generally occupied only by the likes of Neil Young, Sonic Youth, and Glenn Branca. On A Glorious Lethal Euphoria, Thomas eschews the feel-good for excursions into riff wreckage ("Pulpin' Line") and lengthy wavescapes that crash over the living room ("Obsession for Men"). Add a wry nod to the Gilligan's Island theme on "The Intractable Boy" and a passage from Brahms's Third Symphony, and you've got one that not even Brian Wilson would have thought up. --Rickey Wright

Love at first riff.......2006-03-13
My first encounter with The Mermen came from my boyfriend's collection. I immediately fell in love with the first song and knew I would appreciate the complexities of the all-instrumental, surf-rock music. The guitar riffs and the strong, meaty drumming consistently evolved into another emotion; which is what music is all about.
don't be a chump, just buy it.......2005-09-16
there is no excuse for anyone who likes the sound of guitar not to own and cherish this ablum. i HATE guitar players and the crap that comes out of their guitars most of the time. i am IN AWE of the sounds that flows from Jim's bright red strat. this is purely amazing work. one of the BEST ALBUMS I've EVER HEARD. it hurts to listen to this sometimes... it's just that good. amazing drumming bass and guitar. the tones in this album rock you to sleep then tear your eyes out. DYNAMIC. thank you for such a wonderful album, mermen. THANK YOU!!!!
Beyond amazing. To listen to this album is to reach euphoria.......2002-10-23
I cannot possibly describe how much I love this album. Every emotion we harbor... this album gets to them all. The tones are euphoric, the melodys are enthralling... it's the perfect CD. Any true music lover should love this CD.
brilliant.......2002-01-05
While at first I didn't really think this sounded like a surf album (when I think surf I think Dick Dale), and I still really don't think so though with the amount of reverb on the guitar I guess one could say so - its still hypnotic in its appeal. If it is surf , it transcends the genre. The bassist for the band is to be quite blunt, amazing. The album's full of really crazy songscapes that are soothing and sublime and drenched in reverb and melody. If you like music get this album. It's the only thing from a rock band that I can still bear to listen to.
Very Challenging--near death-like in its intensity.......2001-06-21
The 1st time I listened to this CD--I frankly did not know what to think. I was a fan of previous releases, Krill Slippin' and Food For Other Fish--but this was quite a departure, melodically, rhythmically, texturally, thematically, and I had to get my mind around the fact that this band had morphed into something else again. There is no question that this music is ecstatic, it reminds me very much of a close encounter with death--like being rolled under a 100 foot wave for 4 minutes while trying to hold your breath. But it requires some faith and commitment on the part of the listener, to open the mind and surrender ones expectations--if you can do that, perhaps you will discover that the Mermen have redefined everything we previously thought of as psychedelic music. Surfing, in this context, is a metaphor for something more than riding waves of water--this is more like riding the waves of the electromagnetic spectrum.

A LETHAL DOSE OF HARD PSYCH.......2000-07-24
A very good compilation of obscure american psych groups of the mid 60s and early 70s.Every song has a fuzz guitar sound to it and the usual garage/psych ramblings of the faceless groups featured on this collection.Each song featured has informative notes on it even though some have only a couple of lines,the covers quite colorful but the only thing that lets it down is the black and white photo on the front, but I bought this collection due to the obscurity of the acts featured and to add to my collection of obscure psych.
