"ESSENTIAL INDIE PIECE!"
31 Aug 2000
Format:Audio CD
This is by far the strongest album put out by this unique, eclectic NYC band. The music is very experimental and the album changes moods, rapidly. Distilled is a bit melancholy, yet beautiful and Missile++ is my favorite song on the cd, because the lyrics are beautiful and the drummer is amazing on this song! Ignore all of the comments you read that compare them to Sonic Youth. I love Sonic Youth and they really don't sound similar to each other, at all! But I do recommend fans of Sonic Youth to check out Blonde Redhead because they'll love them as well. If you adore indie rock, this is a gem.

Glorious!!
12 May 2003
Format:Audio CD
This is just an incredible album, like all of the rest of their stuff. It took me awhile to start enjoying them. The dissonant guitars made me think they were biting Sonic Youth. But after a few listens I realized that they are very different. While Sonic Youth at their best relied on distortion and improvisation, Blonde Redhead writes non-traditional and dissonant melodies and uses lots of unique time signatures. But there's not a whole lot of improv there. I'd say they had more in common with Don Caballero than Sonic Youth.
If that sounds like your bag, get this record. It's wonderful, exhilarating, and totally unique. My favorite is the great drum line and cracking vocals that is track 4.
And if you have a chance, see them live. They are one of the best performing bands you'll ever see.

Blonde Redhead's growing pains
23 Aug 2004
Format:Audio CD
Might be described as a transitional album. Worth owning for the song "Distilled" alone. It feels rougher to me than other BR albums -- much less poppy than Damaged Lemons and more awkward in the vein of their first two. Still -- excellent if you enjoy their sounds.
