4.0 out of 5 stars Giving the middle finger to convention, November 5, 2003

The first time I ever seen the Headstones was back in 1993 at a big outdoor music festival, and I loved the show. For over 10 years now, this band has been delivering their own brand of rock and literally giving the middle finger to convention.

At the head of the group is Hugh Dillon, a trash-mouthed, chain-smoking, former heroin addict that may be one of the most individual and recognizable icons in the Canadian Music scene. He was the star of the indie classic film Hard Core Logo and was also excellent in the movie Dance Me Outside.

Now on this album, The Oracle of Hi-Fi, the Headstones once again deliver a solid performance, perhaps the best yet. The guitars a harder than the last couple albums and the tunes are more raw. It just feels as though they have realized that they don't need to be friendly to the radio, but to their fan, the people that have stuck with them since the beginning.

This is a definite must-have for any hard rock collection, and in the spirit of the Headstones: I f*cking love these guys, and to hell with anyone who doesn't.

This is one of many CD's from The Headstones their front man, Hugh Dillon is not only a singer/songwriter but he is also an actor. Has a lot of good songs that keep with age.

5.0 out of 5 stars Back to form, November 3, 2002

It can be said that the headstones are one of the best canadian rock bands out there. There music is loud hard and fast. Their last new album, "nickels for you nightmares" was not some of their best work. However "Oracle of Hi-Fi" is a return to what the headstones do best, ROCK AND ROLL. The album is reminiscent of the hard rock tunes found on "Picture of Health" and "Teeth and Tissue". "Oracle of Hi-Fi" is a one of the best headstones albums to date. I recommend it for any true headstones fan.
