Synopsis

Album Description
One of Britain's best-loved and most notorious rock bands, The Wildhearts are about to take their rightful place as one of the most electrifying outfits anywhere in the world. Riff After Riff is the bands first Stateside release since their seminal debut Earth Vs. The Wildhearts in 1993. Since then The Wildhearts have garnered a large and loyal fan base in the U.K., Australia and Japan, and recent tours with The Darkness and Motorhead have only enhanced their reputation as one of the greatest live bands ever. They must be seen, they must be heard, and clearly nothing can stop them!

CD Reviews

The Wildhearts are back!!!!!!!!
Mark Evans | Fircrest, Wa United States | 03/10/2004
(5 out of 5 stars)

"After more than a decade since their last U.S. release (Earth Vs. The Wildhearts, 1993)it is great to see the greatest band in the WORLD have a new (and most deserved) U.S. record deal. This album is absolutely great, and if you are a die-hard Wildhearts fan, chances are you already have all the songs on this album, if you're not you should be after listening to any of these songs. "Looking For The One", "Lake of Piss", "Better Than Cable", and "Bang!" are the true stand out tracks here, and the coolest part is that they, along with every other track (excluding "Stormy" on this record are B-sides. That should tell you the quality of this band. What other band could release an album of B-sides and have it be half as good as this record is? None!!! Every track could and should be an A-side! Not to mention it is great to finally have "Return to Zero" (originally a vinyl only B-side) on CD. There are I feel some glaring omissions including their ripping version of "Cheers" and "You Got To Get Through What You've Got To Go Through To Get What You Want, But You Got To Know What You Want To Get Through What You Got To Go Through", however all in all I feel that the Wildhearts have released another amazing album as a whole. If you like the Darkness (The Wildhearts gave them their first huge break) then you will LOVE The Wildhearts. Check out this album, I promise you won't be dissapointed!!!"

"Doesn't hold a candle to Earth vs. the Wildhearts. Similar in style and content but there is something missing. Can't put my finger on it. These guys still don't know when to end a song. Sometimes when they span several different styles in a song it's a bit too schizophrenic. And what's up with the second song?"
