Most representative album?

Lots of discussion about whether this one is better than that one blah blah blah. They are all brilliant are they not? Here's the question - what's the album that you guys feel most represents the absolute essence of the Wildhearts?

Here's my answer: THE WiLDHEARTS

Shoot me down as you will.........

Though not my favourite Wildhearts album, I've gotta say that 'Endless Nameless' most represents The Wildhearts spirit for me. It's challenging, frustrating, innovative, uncompromising, aggressive, beautiful, edgy and timeless. Plus it's got more of a "fuck you" attitude than all the other albums rolled into one!

hey lads, gather round, here's what we're going to do:

We're gonna do a heavy album cos the fans didn't like the last one, it was a bit too pop so we'll use a dropped d tuning and re-hash a million songs and double their length.

that was probably the conversation for 'the wildhearts' and for the simple fact that it was contrived and forced makes it nothing like the true wildhearts.

my vote goes to phuq a work of sheer passion and brilliance.

you're probably right, it was a bit extreme and doesn't do what is actually quite a good album justice. it is still far far away from their best

do you think i've dug myself out of it?!

I think thats a very harsh review of the album.

I think that's a very realistic review of the album :)

I'll happily sit in that hole with you. Also, this thread appears to have been started merely so another person can effectively say it's their best album just in different words to try and make it look like you weren't.

The "true wildhearts" are a band with very colorful and talented people, writing and playing great colorful rock tunes with lots of cool hard rock riffs, huge chourses and fantastic melodic harmony vocals. And this last album is a perfect example of just that!

I do kinda agree with some of that, I do think it's a bit of a "fuck you", in fact CJ actually said something along those lines on that TotalRock video clip. Which you could argue is very essential Wildhearts. Everything is bloody contrived for fecks sake.

Hey, look! Assmask is being an idiot.

Apologies for being one of about 3 people who post on this board who isn't actually desperate to lick gingers ass every chance they get and is vaguely capable of being realistic and viewing some of his material from a neutral standpoint. Lemon wrote pretty much what anyone with half a brain would agree with. He also said it was a good album which I also agree with. Get off your fucking smug high horse tbh.

But yeah good point you made there. Congrats, suprised you didn't just find a spelling mistake or grammar error and use that as your sole arguement :)

OOoooh get 'im,

Handbags at dawn.........purses at tracy.

Since when has it been a crime to have differing opinions, some like it some dont same with everything so stop being so bloody childish and play nicely children, or as Eans sig says,

"Any more of this nonsense and we'll have a short, sharp visit from the Smack Fairy!"

Thats is all

Since these forums were started apparently.

Ps. Ass mask you're a fucking smug wanker. Won't bother replying to you anymore, feel free to make any annoying comments you like (sure you will because you're oh-so funny). I'll try to stick to just reading the forums not replying, can't be arsed with tossers like you making shitty comments after everything I post purely because I would dare agree with someone who doesn't think the new album is some kind of musical masterpiece. Knock yourself out dude, no doubt you can find many things within this post to make witty prickish remarks about,

So if someone doesn't agree with what Lemon wrote does that mean they haven't got a brain? Now who's the one saying people can't have differing opinions?
