	WILDHEARTS
		Controversial, daring and dangerously different, The Wildhearts could have been the next big thing, but by refusing to follow the bullying of clueless record companies and keeping true to their diverse musical style, they became a cult sensation throughout the United Kingdom and Japan.
		The Wildhearts brought a refreshing sound back into a stale music scene, a la Nirvana, but this time around, the music was extremely catchy, aggressively upbeat and melodic.
		The Wildhearts are a unique hit-making machine because they combine the best elements of pop, rock, country and heavy metal, and blend them together to create the ultimate musical mix.

	The Wildhearts
		"It is The Wildhearts at their furious, pounding best: distorted vocals and a riff the size of Godzilla vying with for supremacy with gigantic hooks and a melody with the wingspan of Mothra.
		Nme.com said that The Wildhearts "stormed the stage" when they played Reading and Leeds at the end of August, and they'll be doing a lot more 'storming' with projected dates towards the end of 2004!
		The band are now in the process of celebrating their live heritage by releasing "The Wildhearts Strike Back", a double-album recorded on their UK tour earlier this year, and will be playing a series of live shows towards the end of the year, when they are considering recording a DVD for release early in 2005.

	VH1.com : Wildhearts : Biography - Urge Music Downloads
		The Wildhearts were the kind of band that the British rock press has wet dreams about: creatively brilliant, completely out-of-control, and utterly doomed from day one.
		Besides wetting their feet in the recording studio with a couple of EPs (Mondo Akimbo A-Go-Go and Don't Be Happy...Just Worry), the Wildhearts continued to tour incessantly throughout 1992, logging an especially memorable trek with on-the-rise glam-political rockers the Manic Street Preachers.
		A nervous truce was finally struck when the band was offered the opening slot on AC/DC's 1996 tour of Europe; but plans to carry on with the second leg in America were squashed at the last minute when the label's U.S. division pulled their tour support.

		The Wildhearts UK label were not fans of the band.
		The Wildhearts work ethic of going back into the studio to write B-Sides especially means that the resulting songs are of a far higher quality than your usual re-mix or album out take affair.
		A sloppy track selection for a band who deserved a better representation of their music, it gets three stars due to the excellence of the tracks from the first two albums but it could have been so much better with a bit of thought.

		This package is an overview of the material the Wildhearts prolifically cranked out in the 1992-96 period, proving that rock could still be fun in those days.

		The Wildhearts have always had an ability to combine muscular riffs with catchy melodies, and they certainly haven't lost that.
		It's got the same Wildhearts punch to it; it's just that most of the album stays firmly at the positive, melodic end of the Wildhearts musical scale.
		The Wildhearts we know and love have changed some, but this is more an expanding of sound and a covering of new territory than a total change of style.

	KNAC.COM - Reviews - The Wildhearts Riff After Riff
		Following on the heels on their brilliant comeback album, The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed, Riff After Riff collects songs off the UK foursome's Japanese only EP Riff After Riff After Motherfucking Riff along with bonus tracks and raities, to introduce them to the American market that has so ignored them over the years.
		From the hook-laden pulp sugar of "Stormy in the North, Karma in the South" to the brutally heavy "Lake of Piss," The Wildhearts refuse to be pigeonholed, hopping from genre to genre with ease while retaining their hard edge and keeping their sugar-coated vocals firmly in tact.
		The Wildhearts are one of the most enduring rock bands of the last 12-13 years and should be applauded for that alone.

	The Wildhearts : P.H.U.Q. - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		So it was with great relief that listeners finally got to enjoy all the creative, daring, explosive power and barely reigned-in lunacy of the band's incredible live performances with the release of their excellent 1995 sophomore effort P.H.U.Q. Strangely, however, the Wildhearts employed no less than two competent producers in the making of the album.
		With Mark Dodson (Anthrax, Ugly Kid Joe) overseeing seven tracks and Simon Efemey (Paradise Lost) working on the remaining five, the fact that the band somehow managed to construct such a seamless and satisfying whole from such a disjointed process is nothing short of a miracle.
		Despite being embraced by critics and fans in Britain and across Europe, P.H.U.Q. was to be the Wildhearts' most overlooked masterpiece in America, and it is little wonder that the band never fully recovered from their disappointment.

	Alt.Culture.Guide CD Playlist: The Wildhearts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Even so, many of the songs on The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed, enjoyable as they may be, are missing a certain "joi de vivre" that made previous Wildhearts' albums a crucial part of every rocker's music library.
		As such, The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed serves as a bookend with the recently released Riff After Riff — which itself showcases the harder-rocking, metal-edged side of the band's personality.
		The Wildhearts are clearly working towards a future album that will include both sides of the musical dichotomy that made the band so attractive a decade ago.

	FiveMilesHigh - UK Rock 'n' Roll Resource
		Screaming in to the scene of '92 with "Mondo Akimbo A-Go-Go", Wildhearts main man Ginger started as he meant to go on by fucking shit up from the very beginning.
		Drummer Bam (ex Dogs D'Amour, now of Bubble) left and Stidi took up the reins for the recording of the first album proper, "Earth vs. The Wildhearts" but left in time to eventually form The Jellys and for Ritch Battersby to join for the "Caffeine Bomb" e.p.
		The band did reform on two occasions for festival dates in Japan but it wasn't until this first year of the third millennium that any concrete reformation was on the cards.

		Spring will see the first domestic Wildhearts release and tour since Warner released the legendary "Earth Vs. The Wildhearts" and the band toured with AC/DC in the mid-90's.
		Yes, we know we've opened a Pandora's box of epic proportions, but we would be letting ourselves and all Americans who love rock 'n' roll down if we didn't dedicate ourselves to making Ginger and his merry bunch a household word.
		Dirty Donny is currently hard at work on the cover, and their tour with The Dragons kicks off in Texas at SXSW in March and ends in San Francisco in early April.

		The Wildhearts, led by vocalist and songwriter David "Ginger" Walls and featuring bassist Danny McCormack, were among the most energetic and blasphemous of the pack.
		Where the band transcends its limits and its idols is in the wild romp of Rumble, in the anthemic choruses and uptempo beat of Hanging Up and Time Of Your Life, and especially in the glorious, frantic rave-up of Keepin' On Keepin' On.
		I Wildhearts, guidati dal bassista e cantante Danny McCormack, erano tra i più energetici ed irriverenti del mucchio.

		After The Wildhearts left the stage, the white curtain went up.

		Their unashamedly decadent image and ultra-heavy hard rock quickly ignited the English press' hype machine and, after flirting with Atco, they signed a contract with EastWest Records in the summer of 1991.
		Despite their growing momentum, however, 1994 was to be a troubled year for the group; the first of many, actually.

	HIGH BIAS -- Wildhearts
		For those just coming in on the Wildhearts-High Bias love affair, what makes the 'hearts so special is that the band represents a near-perfect marriage between smartly crafted songs and crazed rock & roll energy.
		That said, brains vs. brawn may not matter much when the melodies inspire instant singalongs and the crunch practically demands a demonstration of one's air guitar prowess.
		The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed is one of those classic albums that hits you in the gut first; by the time your brain engages with the subtle arrangements and lyrical wit, those elements become simply attributes that make this gem shine all the brighter.

	Fishing for Luckies - The Wildhearts - Song Listings (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Collecting numerous studio outtakes from the amazingly prolific Wildhearts, Fishing for Luckies was originally made available only to the band's fan club.
		Among these, "Inglorious" and "Schitzophonic" had already made appearances as bonus tracks on the CD version of P.H.U.Q., but outrageous, never-before-heard musical voyages like "Sky Babies" and the awesome children-led choruses of "Do the Channel Bop" push the boundaries of normality like only the Wildhearts seemed capable of.
		Considering the group's eventual collapse amidst record company ineptitude, intra-band strife, and Ginger simply being a complete nutter, Fishing for Luckies deserves even more recognition as a worthy part of this band's already impressive discography.

	The Wildhearts @ Academy 2
		LIKE a persistent cold sore, The Wildhearts are back again, just months after their last trawl round the UK’s dingiest venues.
		Never the most ground-breaking British rock band, The Wildhearts and their fans exist in a world where a chunky riff, some gruff vocals and half a dozen pints equal a great night out.
		To everyone else it’s a mystery as to how such a mediocre pop-metal band has managed to hang onto a slice of fame for 14 years.

		See, Ginger had to look to the land of the rising sun (where the Wildhearts, apparently, are Toho-sized monsters) to release Black Leather Mojo.
		More Sha Na Na than Social Distortion, these four leather-jacketed greasers drive up in a brand-new Cadillac, sling their axes low, slather Brylcream on T. Rex, and mispronounce "lie-ee-ife" as though it were the most precious word in the OED.
