The Pillows in all thier greatness
Takkun | magical place called an aslyum | 09/29/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Of all The Pillows cds. *including all the ones that aren't sold on amazon* I would say this one is in my third fav. Thoguh i like most of thier songs equally, this cd really shows what the pillows can do. It also has my second favorite song to come from the pillows. Terminal Heavens Rock *Carnival being the first...though that aint on this cd* Even after 15 years of playing * or was it 16...or 17...eh i forgot* They still seem to keep the same power they have before. If only they were repected more.

1.Dead Stock Paradise (3/5) : Not thier best , but still not a bad song. Features all of that broken english that you love.



2. Lonesome Diamond (4/5): Great opening, a nice song with good lyrics



3. Freebee Honey (4/5): This feels a bit paced at times and then at other times it doesn't a little bit of a weird song , but still not a bad song.



4.Terminal Heavens Rock (5/5): My favorite song on this cd. Riffs, lyrics everything. This is the reason to buy this cd. *thugh even without this song, i'd buy it...still a great cd and an amazing band. For some reason , I like the 50s style in this one. Though I usually don't like that.



5.The sun that will not rise (4.5/5): One of thier slowest songs. It can feel really dragged out at points, but at the end it feels very complete and worth listening to again. Can sometimes make people feel tired, but it's still a great song.



6. Phantom Pain (3/5): My least favorite song on this cd. I do not know why. It's just for some reason they did not hit home with this one.



7. I know you (5/5): I have no idea why people hate this song so much. I happen to like the pace, and english lyrics that are in it.



8. Moon Marguerite (5/5): Very catchy lyrics, and tune. Proves that the pillows can still rock it out.



9.Super Trampoline School Kid (3/5): Te second weridest song from the pillows ever. *the first would be advice.....and no...not the flcl verison, the original verison* If you are not put off by the opening , this is actually a pretty fun tune.



10. Mole Town Prisnor (5/5): The cd is called Penalty Life *originaly it was called good dreams* but this song is not called Penalty Life. Even though they say it in the lyrics. Which I thought was strnage , but still this is another song that is over quick and can easily get stuck in your head. *sortof like Ride on Shooting Star or the original verison of advice*



11. The scar whispers, nobody is in paradise (4/5): A nice finish *or is it?* to an amazing cd. A slow song throughout.



Hidden Track: (3/5) : Definatly one of thier more fast paced songs. I would like it more if it didn't end so quickly.



Average:(4.5) An amazing cd. Very well done mix of songs. Not the best I've heard from the pillows but still one of the best cds to come from them.

If you want good music, get this people. Does not get much better. It is so different from what is shown in the market today and proves that there is music outside of the media."
