5 out of 5 stars Best Album of 2003/2004.......2005-01-30

Bear witness with an open mind and an open heart. Some of you may be familiar with Plato's Myth of the Cave: People live in a cave, seeing the images on the wall cast by the light coming from outside. They believe all their lives they are seeing the actual object and not merely a shadow on the wall. The Wildhearts are the thing itself, what makes that projection from outside the cave. In the last two years, if I had a nickel for every time I read some bio/press release/review proclaiming X band as the saviours of rock and roll, I'd be on tour right now (I wish I'd have a nickel back for every time I was subjected to Nickelback! Arrrgh!).

If I will ever say it about anyone, I would reserve it for the Wildhearts with this album. "Nexus Icon" is a furnace blast in the face of music that's been frozen in carbonite for all too long. "Someone Who Won't Let Me Go" is pure power pop with a serrated blade. Vocals and harmonies are carefully crafted as if Ginger was the true spawn of John Phillips (and not those other, uh, things - ick). "Vanilla Radio" is the obvious hit, but not for no reason other than it's a well crafted song with hooks, rife with the guts of rock and the right combination of molasses and ire and radio-ready production. On the sweeter "One Love, One Life, One Girl", this could have easily come from Cheap Trick if Cheap Trick wasn't TRYING so hard nowadays to be Cheap Trick (but that's another rant altogether). "Only One Hell" is the track that grew on me the most over the 1000 times I listened to this album.

There is no posing. This is it. Not the shadow, but the thing itself. They are on "Top of the World" projecting a shadow on the rest of us. But being freed from the cave to be blinded by the light, I wonder if I shouldn't hang it up myself.

5 out of 5 stars A+ offering from one of the rock world's hidden treasures.......2004-10-06

It seems that The Wildhearts can do no wrong, apart from breaking up every few years. "The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed!" follows a string of Wildhearts releases that have all been top-notch, so the expectations for this one were high. We needn't have worried. Nothing but classic Wildies here. Songs that'll stick in your head after the first listen, ball-busting guitars that'll give you the best-sounding enema you've ever had. Also features excellent production, for once. The sound is crisp and clear on headphones, and will sound just as great blasted full volume in your car with all the windows down (as this album begs to be cranked).

This album is a bit more pop-oriented than their previous efforts, as they seem to be focusing on writing fantastic songs on this one, rather than seeing how many riffs they can fit into a song (not that that's a bad thing at all!). The Wildhearts have never been a band to stay the same, and I think this is a logical step in their progression. Enjoy it.

Long live The Wildhearts.

5 out of 5 stars Shiny, Powerful Rock!.......2004-08-16

The Wildhearts are back, and I am pleased to hear it. "The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed" is a rock album that defies categories. Mixing the shiny pop of Treble Charger with the angry grit of White Zombie, this album is one kick butt ride that is constantly changing, thus doesn't grow boring. Highly, highly, highly recommended.

3 out of 5 stars Released 11 years too late.......2004-06-12

This album contains all the good stuff about The Wildhearts, but not the best stuff. Listen to it against Earth Vs. The Wildhearts, and you might share an opinion with a few others that their first album was the strongest album, with the content of "Must Be Destroyed" better placed before the release of "Earth Vs".

Everyone's review highlights their lyrical and musical content, but the review I think that best sums them up was written back in '93, quoting them as being 'Somewhere between Ministry and The Beach Boys'.

Good to have them still around; I'm glad I held onto the Get Well card they gave to me, with Ginger so honestly writting "Get well soon ya F@$ker!". Good Times

5 out of 5 stars One of the best CD's of the last several years.......2004-05-26

This CD is a speeding ticket waiting to happen. I've shaved 10 minutes off of my drive to work just by listening to it in the morning. The energy oozes out of the sound system and completes a circuit with my right foot, which causes my vehicle to reach 90MPH on the Northwest Tollway outside of Chicago.

If you enjoy your Rock'N'Roll with contrasts and dynamics, "...Must be Destroyed" is IT. It is 100% energy throughout with contrasts in tempo and heaviness. These are tightly crafted songs with more hooks than Babe Winkelman's tackle box.

The album takes off like a rocket with "Nexus Icon". This is as strong an opening statement that you could ever hope for on an album. The Wildhearts are giving a hearty middle finger to the current state of pop culture on this one.

"Only Love" is the song that should be released as a single YESTERDAY. It's one of those rare songs that feels familiar even though it's brand new. It's Rock'N'Roll enough to have an edge, but it also has a chorus that will infiltrate your gray matter and not let go. If I ever get Alzheimer's, I'll still be singing this one.

"Someone That Won't Let Me Go" is in the same vein as "Only Love" and almost feels like a continuation (ala Journey's "Feeling That Way/Anytime").

"Vanilla Radio" is a fist-pumping number that translates GREAT in concert. This is one of the CD's heavier tracks, but as everything else on this CD, has an incredible hook.

"One Love..." definitely sports an early Beatles influence but is still uniquely Wildhearts. It is a mid-tempo pop number, and is the softest track on the CD. It sets the table for the jolt awaiting on the next track.

"Get Your Groove On" is a very short assault on the senses with a cameo by Justin Hawkins (of the Darkness - for those who have been in a broom closet for the last six months). It is the heaviest track and plays like a watershed between the first and second half of the CD.

"So into You" is an up tempo track with some of the most memorable lyrics on the CD. This is sounding redundant, but this song also has an A+ hook. The chorus is very well done with a great guitar line that echoes the chorus. By this point, you realize that you have placed your ears in the hands of a song-writing master craftsman.

"There's Only One Hell" plays a lot more upbeat than the title suggests. It's about looking someone in the eye and saying "do your worst!" The tone of tongue-in-cheek defiance exemplifies what great Rock'N'Roll is made of.

"It's All Up to Me" features a very percussive chorus, which provides a good contrast to the other songs on the CD. Following "There's Only One Hell" which lays the blame at the foot of the other person, "It's All Up to Me" is a 180-degree response.

"Out from the Inside" is a crunchy song about perspective. This could be interpreted as the aftermath of the previous two tracks, but I am probably reading too much into it.

The CD concludes with a masterpiece. "Top of the World" is a timeless anthem that is the gift wrap on the entire package. The best lyric on the whole set is the "agony and ecstasy" line. This song is perfect. If you play guitar or drums, "Top of the World" will inspire you to pick up your instrument.

There is not a clunker on the CD. It was worth the extra $$$ as an import, and now that it's available as a domestic release there are no excuses to not own it. With proper label support and airplay, there is no reason why this band should not be dominating the airwaves. I just discovered the Wildhearts through their tour with the Darkness, but this is a band that I will be listening to until I die. These songs are timeless. If you don't want to take my word for it, look up the Spin magazine review.

    5 out of 5 stars Mott Must Be Destroyed.......2004-02-21

    Destroy The Wildhearts? Never. Nobody could anyway; the Wildhearts and Keith Richards represent the true spirit of Rock 'n' Roll and are indestructible, although they have tried pretty hard to self destruct themselves. In twenty years time they will still be out there somewhere rocking their little wild hearts out, on the brink of stardom, but, like Strange Fruit from the Movie `Still Crazy', they will still find some way of messing it up.

    The Wildhearts have had top ten hit singles. `I Wanna Go Where the People Go' reached number 6 in the U.K. and the album 'Fishing for Luckies' actually reached number one. They somehow managed to get pulled off the support slot for AC/DC's Stateside trip due to lack of finances from the management. Always on the verge of Superstardom, but always managing to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

    They succeeded splitting up in 1999, but here we are in 2004 with a newly released album and a lineup that would make Spinal Tap look like a regular gig. They have managed to patch up the relationships and returned to the (almost) lineup that recorded their first album in 1993, `Earth vs. the Wildhearts'. After years of bickering, CJ has overcome his differences and came back into the fold (perhaps helped by the fact that CJ now lives in Japan, whilst the rest of the band live in England, only getting together for recording and touring).

    The mighty Stidi is back on the thundering Wildhearts' drums. This man sure hits the bins hard.

    Unfortunately Danny McCormack (the only one with a straight forward name - "Stidi" indeed), the original bass player and firm fan favorite, is presently not in the correct physical health to re-join the band. However, the door is apparently always open if he can get himself into a fit condition. On the other hand, his bass-playing shoes are well filled on the road by Jon 'the Loon' Poole.

    Then out front on lead guitar and lead vocals is chief songwriter and the world's most loveable nutter, Ginger, the only constant factor in the lineup. In fact, it could be said he is 'The Wildhearts'. Ginger's favorite vacation spot is also Pattaya, which certifies him as a good bloke, doesn't it?

    Has the passage of time slowed down the Wildhearts? No, not a bit. It's still pure straight down the line Rock 'n' Roll with the catchiest hook lines, crunching guitars, and that certain madness that sends the blood pounding. It's like a cross between Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Black Sabbath, Heavy Rock, Grunge, Pop, Metal......... It's the Wildhearts right; it rocks.

    On `Must Be Destroyed' you get eleven ditties to bang your head to. Nine were written by Ginger, one co-written by Ginger/Jagdhar (`So Into You'), and one by C. Jagdhar (`Out From The Inside' - funny how they can remember their real names when it comes to songwriting royalties). They all have their little stories to tell.

    Opening track 'Nexus Icon' is all about rock stars who have become a little too big for their boots. 'One Love, One Life, One Girl' is all about Ginger's new found life in a stable relationship, and so on. For once in Rock 'n' Roll the lyric sheets that come with the C.D. are actually worth reading and not just a load of words that happen to rhyme. The booklet with its illustrations makes the C.D. worth buying alone, especially the one that goes with `Top of the World'.

    All sung in Ginger's distinctive Geordie drawl. Mind you, I've never heard a Geordie, or for that matter anyone, sing that fast on the real belters such as `Get Your Groove'. Ginger and CJ crank the guitar riffs up to eleven and just let go. Ginger lays down many memorable solos that are gut wrenching in their power, whilst the rhythm section drives them on faster and faster to ever greater heights.

    You also get guest appearances from Andy Cairns and some high pitched yodeling from the now very famous Justin Hawkins of Darkness. The Wildhearts are at present (January 2004) out on the road in Britain with The Darkness, a double bill that should raise the roof every night. For tour dates look up the Wildhearts website at www.wildhearts.com

    Wildhearts Must be Destroyed? Rubbish. They should be cherished as an institution.

    5 out of 5 stars HELL YEEEEEAEAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2003-11-20

    Personally, these guys are my all time fave rocknroll band EVER! They consistently prove themselves to be head and shoulders above anyone else in rock with their amazing melodies and crunching riffs! This new album is easily as great as all their previous work, without duplicating it exactly. On this disc we find ace songwriter Ginger in a very upbeat and love-filled mood. Every song on here should be a hit single! Don't let these cats pass you by! And check em out when they hit U.S. soil in March 2004 for the first time since their debut came out in 1994!!! Praise Ginger!!!

    5 out of 5 stars Get Your Rocks On.......2003-09-28

    In this world of categorized music, talented bands like the Wildhearts don't have much chance of being as huge as whatever bands are dubbed the next-big-things by the media conglomerates. That's because the Wildhearts don't fit into any of those narrowly-defined categories that you see at the chain stores. They only belong in one category: ROCK N' ROLL. Group leader Ginger is an exceptional songwriter with a clear knowledge of rock history, and the band's crunchy execution leaves no doubt about their respect for the rock. This album runs the gauntlet from raunchy sleaze rock in "Nexus Icon" and "Get Your Groove On," to pure guitar pop in "Only Love" and "There's Only One Hell" and even a little classic R&B in "It's All Up to Me." This album proves that the true rock n' roll is still alive and well, but you just gotta search for it.

    Note that the correct title of this album is The Wildhearts Must Be Destroyed. That title may be a little too rock for some people [~doomsdayer520~]
