Bad impulse buy., October 25, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Cherub Rock (Audio CD)
I bought this on an impulse while purchasing several other singles in to fill in my Pumpkin collection, and I was fairly disappointed with this one. I am a die-hard Pumpkinhead since I first heard 'Today' back in '94, and own pretty much everything they've ever done. They still remain my favorite all-time band. Cherub Rock is an awesome song, and Pissant is good as well. However, I recommend that you buy "Siamese Dream" for CR and "Pisces Iscariot" for Pissant. I already had both when I purchased this single, and was simply trying to fill in the 'French Movie Theme' hole. Simply put, FMT isn't a song. It's just some weird music with odd humming-like noises in the background. Just stick with the albums and forget this single. Get the singles with good b-sides instead. I'd highly recommend "The Aeroplane Flies High" boxed set of the MCIS singles, as well as "Pisces Iscariot" which is a collection of b-sides from the Gish and Siamese Dream eras.

Bravo!!!, February 2, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Cherub Rock (Audio CD)
The Cherub Rock single has Cherub Rock, Pissant, and the French movie Theme. Pissant-good beat with excelent Billy screams-pure pumpkin rock. The French Movie Theme-quiet, soothing song with a clip of sound after the song with (I think) Billy singing the American National Anthum. Brovo to the wonderful work of Pumpkin Power!

Awesome song, bad CD, May 31, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Cherub Rock (Audio CD)
I must say that Cherub Rock is one of the greatest SP songs, but to buy the single would be a waste of 6 bucks. Instead, just head for Siamese Dream, which has Cherub Rock AND many other kickin' songs. Siamese Dream is my all-time FAVORITE CD EVER, and I highly recommend it. If there is one CD to own by SP, Siamese Dream is it. So don't get the single, get the CD!

A Classic alternative anthem from a classic band, September 8, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Cherub Rock (Audio CD)
From its dramatic opening to its blistering end, Cherub rock never ceases to amaze me. The studio production methods used to create this raw, powerful sound enhances the mood in everyway and the obvious attention to detail makes the song completely flawless. The drumming is incredible and along with the soft melody, crunchy guitars and smooth bass, an absolute classic song has been made coming from a classic album, Siamese Dream. An absolute must for any alternative rocker!

are ye all nuts, January 11, 2003
This review is from: Cherub Rock (Audio CD)
i love this album!!! cherub rock is one of the pumpkins greatest songs and pissant is one hell of a scorching rock song. french movie theme is ok, quite light and almost belongs at the end of a move during credits. you can hear it on viephora too. as much as some fo my fellow reviewers think this is one to pass, i say this album is by far worth your $$$$$.
