Product Description
Album Description
2008 UK pressing of this album from the L.A. band. The Mae Shi have experienced some seriously fun times over the years, spreading their righteous gospel on the genius of their band - a truly special musical beast. The Mae Shi don't do things by halves. The album Hillyth will astound, enthrall, confuse, excite and blow your mind in equal measures. The album's first single, 'Run To Your Grave', is the perfect introduction to a band whose influences span pretty much the whole spectrum of musical genres. Moshi Moshi.

I want almost everything!, Sep 26 2008
By Sister Safety Pin "Crazy car, you lead me no ... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Hlllyth (Audio CD)
While I don't understand why this cd is so expensive... The Mae Shi are definitely a brilliant band. Their music is distinctly them and all of it worth a listen. However, on this cd in particular - It's worth the buy if only to listen to the song "I Get (Almost) Everything I Want".

Is this The Mae Shi?, Dec 22 2010

This review is from: Hlllyh (Audio CD)
I love The Mae Shi's previous records (Terrorbird, Do Not Ignore the Potential [split with RTH] and Heartbeeps). These are all 4 to 5 star records, easily.HLLLYH is garbage.
I fired this up for the first time last night. It starts off on the right foot, I started to feel it a bit on the opening track. But then the vocals kick in. The vocals are so bad I was immediately embarrassed to be listening to it and I turned the volume down real quick hoping my girlfriend wouldn't hear it from the other room. I only know The Mae Shi through Amazon. I've never heard of them outside of Amazon. It showed up as a recommendation one day, so I gave it a try and loved all of it until this record. Something major changed between the first 3 records and this one. Since I don't know anything about the band, I have no idea what that could be. Whatever it is, it has completely destroyed the Mae Shi formula.
The vocals on this album are like a mix of Blink 182 (gag!) and The Offspring (gag!).
This record draws a very bold and distinct line between itself and the previous 3 records. I can't imagine fans of the older stuff enjoying this.
...but I suppose it would work both ways...I couldn't imagine fans of this record enjoying the older stuff.
Listmania!
