5.0 out of 5 stars Maybe not "a real review", October 10, 2002
By Petr Bily (Prague, Czech Republic) - See all my reviews
Heaven Up Here is still (more than 10 years after listening to it) one of my favourites. It is one of the best recordings of post-punk and new wave I've ever heard. I was big fan of The Cure, Siouxsie And The Banshees, Joy Division (recordings from the first half of eighties) and "Heaven Up Here" was one of a few other recordings I've used to listen to.
All songs are great, impressive, full of energy. Some of them are still in my head (and in my heart). It's worthy to try it (for me the best of their recordings). Bye.
P.S.: Sorry for my poor english.

5.0 out of 5 stars a masterpiece, February 22, 2005
By PSM/Bokor (United States) - See all my reviews
First and foremost, I'm familiar with a lot of the Bunnymen's music; however, this is the only CD of theirs I will own. The rest of their music is bland, for my tastes. With that said, this is a great CD.

There is a mood that is haunting; it's engaging. The songs have energy in a subdued way, and the lyrics are powerful. I dare say that this is a "must have" CD for any collector of rock/punk music.

Even though there is not one mediocre song on this CD, I absolutely recommend "Over the Wall" and "The Disease."

These musicians have created a virtually unrivaled collection of songs in "Heaven Up Here."

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Introduction To The Bunnymen!!, April 24, 2002
By Matthew (Pittsburgh) - See all my reviews
Personally, I feel that this is the best Bunnymen album. For those of you that are into 'Goth' music and always wanted to check this classic band out, this is the album that would be best for you to start with. "Heaven Up Here" is easily the gloomiest and most angst-ridden Bunnymen release. Highlights include "Show Of Strength" and the moody bitterness of "All My Colours" ("That box you gave me/burned nicely") Similar in spirit to Joy Division and early Cure, this CD will not disappoint the post-punk enthusiast or serious Goth music collector.
