Product Description

The Japanese answer to The Clash that absorbed R&B as well as pop and punk. Each song has enough hooks to reel you in and never let you go. Never mind the language difference....you don't need it, just have fun!

4.0 out of 5 stars True, True, August 5, 2003

By A Customer

They call this CD Super Best, and it's a good survey of the Blue Hearts' career. If you've never heard them before, they're a kinda poppy punk band that got their start in the eighties, and the nearest English-language band I can think of is The Clash. Fun songs, with a few English words sprinkled here and there, and good rock music, even playing some harmonica on a couple of bluesier numbers. The price is a little steep, I guess, but a really good CD, I listen to it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, May 15, 2005

By	Larry "larry138" (Mount Laurel, NJ United States) - See all my reviews

I'm generally a punk and death/speed/thrash metal fan, but I love this CD. As the other reviewer said, the closest English-speaking band you can think of to equate this band to is The Clash. Every song is catchy and fun; every song is equally as good as the others, which is a rare thing. They have a good portion of pop punk on this CD as well as a few blues-type songs, all of which are great. The pop punk is good, well-thought-out, as opposed to modern American pop punk. Japanese Clash is the easiest way to describe their sound.

The price may be high, but this CD is worth it. Pick it up now no matter what kind of music you like. You're sure to enjoy it.
