Impressed By Me.......2005-02-13

This album was just what I expected, it's not as excellent as Jennie Bomb, but it still has a lot of great songs. Where Jennie Bomb is more punk, C'mon Let's Pretend is a more slowed down modern Rock Album. The first track "Push On Some More" is hard to get past because it's so good, I listened to it over and over again. If you have Jennie Bomb you should definitely get C'mon Let's Pretend. It's not as hard, but the band makes a big impact. The best tracks are "Push On Some More," "Quite A Feeling," "Impressed By Me," "Too Cold For You" and "Our Very Own."

Modern Day Sioxsie and the Banshees.......2004-03-17

I was first exposed to this band through the record 'Jennie Bomb'. While detractors of that record could rightfully complain that the songs sounded too similar to each other, the same cannot be said of this much richer more varied album.

The songs average between 3 and 4 minutes each, which is longer than on Jennie Bomb. With the extra time per track, the band manages to take each song farther allowing more slower quieter moments to help the loud moments stand out more.

When I first heard the band, the first band that sprang to mind was Siouxsie and the Banshees. Whether intentional or not, lead vocalist Maria Andersson has successfully channelled the vocal stylings of Siouxsie -- and as a fan of that late 70's band I consider this a very good thing indeed.

Yet despite their similarity to other bands, they retain a certain uniqueness that makes them stand out. If you have Jennie Bomb by all means get this record, you won't regret it. If you have neither record, then I also recommend this as it is a better introduction to the band than Jennie Bomb.

Junkmedia.org Review - The joys of standard garage rock.......2003-05-14

When originally released in 1999, the Sahara Hotnights' debut C'mon Let's Pretend made mainstream stars of the all-female band in their native Sweden. It's easy to see why. This is the kind of album that grabs you on the first listen and doesn't let go until you drive yourself crazy from playing it over and over again.

While their sophomore effort Jennie Bomb delivered melodic punk a la the Ramones or the Runaways, C'mon relies upon 1960s pop friendliness. This is not to say that the album is not punkish or heavy in its guitar sound or that lead vocalist Maria Andersson doesn't employ almost hysterical shouting to make the music pretty damn intense. It's just that the melodies on this album suggest '60s influences like the Doors, Del Shannon and Big Brother and the Holding Company (in fact, Andersson sounds like a cross between Janis Joplin and Siouxsie Sioux) more than any punk band.

Except for possibly the overly chaotic "Impressed By Me," every song feels like a hit and makes you either jump or bliss out into a dreamworld of positive aggression (if not both). C'mon Let's Pretend is something like a superalbum of simple hard rock. All of this is despite the fact that some of the songs are atypical for the Hotnights' typical style. During its verses, "Wake Up" plays like a traditional soul song. "That's What They Do" is unusually subdued for the band, sounding almost like a samba with Andersson actually singing without screaming for once. "Kicks" is built on an extremely powerful bent note neo-blues riff of the sort that Soundgarden virtually perfected. And just to show that the Hotnights aren't too retro, "I Know Exactly What to Do" uses a modern but slow bare-bones progressive dance beat.

Otherwise, though, the album mostly just unobstructedly revels in the joys of standard garage rock, rediscovering its primitive power just as the band did with Jennie Bomb. To be sure, you can't expect too much sophistication or spirituality from a group of teenage girls singing about relationship problems over inherently uninnovative music. The questionable phrasing even make the lyrics kind of hard to understand. The guitar playing is also a bit more thrummy and less precise here than on the second album. But, what the hell -- this rocks.

So Amazing!.......2003-05-05

This band is SO amazing! I miss the runaways and bands like Sahara Hotnights are a breath of fresh air! The rock scene is stale and dying...so this is what is needed! REAL rock played with passion and good lyrics!

this band is sweet, sexy and simply Marvelous!

If you like GREAT rock n roll this band is for you!!!

Average customer rating: Great mix! only the best excellent title by some very cool muscians They still make music like that! Boiling HOT!

Great mix!.......2003-05-05

Such a GREAT mix of songs here! their sound is VERY retro 70s/80s...sometimes I can even almost hear a hint of "runaways" in there!!! they stand on their own and bring a uniqueness to the music world! Which it needs Badly! we need more Girl bands out there that can match with the guy rock bands! who says its a "Man's" world anymore anyway right?

only the best.......2003-03-02

It's probably one of the most talented "modern rock" around...
The songs are so perfect, very melodic, catchy enough to satisfy my taste...It absolutley rocks...
Amazon made it easy for me to keep listening to this great band; I mean, I'm not going to sweden just for a CD!! so I have this wonderful option via internet...
The cost was a little high, but it was totally worthy...
They are defenetley one of my very few favorite bands...
Oh.. and the delivery took less than expected...about 2 weeks...

excellent title by some very cool muscians.......2001-04-23

Saw these women at a small club in Paris backing the Donnas & was blown away by their cool glitterish-grungy sound. Like a younger, cooler Elastica without the BS Justine baggage dragging them down...In fact I'd have rather seen more of SH than the Donnas...bought the album and haven't stopped listening to it for 3 days..."Oh Darling!" is tops. If you live in the U.S., probably better to order this from a UK site, the import is pretty expensive.

They still make music like that!.......2000-03-07

For all 4AD old-hands, or anyone who just likes good indie rock in general: This one is for you.

This is the upbeat side of early Throwing Muses and Bettie Serveert rolled up into one, with liberal sprinklings of harder and more spiky influences, including beautifully stark, energetic vocals with a serrated edge of desperation. But more than enough innovation to claim their own unique style, too.

You just don't find much of this sort of thing anymore, which we were spoilt with in the late 80s and early 90s. But just because there are roots doesn't mean these young Swedes fall into the retro trap: They don't sound dated for a second. This is pure rock vitality for this or any other millennium.

All in all: One of the best indie-style acts around, and probably _the_ best all-girl rock band ever.

Boiling HOT!.......1999-11-21

Containing all the energy from a Sahara hot day, this album force the heat from boiling blood through any listener, pushing anyone up to the stars in the desert night. It brings a completely new meaning to "Girl Power" and makes the silence start crying out for more and more and more ...
