    The first time I heard "Save Me" I was in the tenth grade, watching the series premiere of Smallville. Something about that song had a powerful impact on me, and the very next weekend I went to the store and purchased the CD without having heard a single other track on the album. The Golden Hum is the only CD I have ever purchased point blank like that, completely confident in the entire album because of my feelings about a single song. And to this day, I have never regretted that decision nor felt the same way about any other album. I truly believe that Remy Zero was one of the greatest bands of all time, and I always feel a twinge of sadness when I think about the fact that they will never make another album.
  • Great album

    This album, along with maybe 2 or three others, WAS my college music epitomized. A great live band, I wish they hadn't broken up and I wish they hadn't been associated with that damned Smallville (personal dislike, I guess).

    I've loved Remy Zero since accidently finding "I'm not afraid" by accident on {nabster}. The other positive reviews say enough. Yes, U2 is a great band but I don't get the comparison.

    just an FYI, if you found this album because of smallville, you would see "Save me" but also the song "Perfect Memory" is the song that chloe and clark danced to in the ep Tempest...and sooo, i just thought that if you were a CHLARK fan, you would enjoy knowing :p !!

    Just because we get past 30 (Oh! by the way I'm 53) doesn't mean we gave up on music. In fact it means more. This sound is terrific. Enjoy!

    I found this album in a pile of cd's someone left in the lobby. Almost all of them got put back, but this one stayed. It grabbed me right out of the gate and kept running all the way thru. Albums that hold the attention from start to finish, that contain zero filler, are a rare breed these days. Back when albums came on vinyl, there was a de facto 45 minute limit on the whole, which forced artists and producers to make choices, to filter out all but the strongest material. Every once in a great while the expanded content of the cd is actually filled with music that merits placement on the record; this album is one such creature. The comparison to U2 is fascinating to me; first of all, I don't hear it, and I'm a stickler for spotting derivatives. Second of all, U2 is (imho) a band that consistently packages one or two amazing songs within an otherwise bland collection of emotionless meanderings. While there is a textural similarity in the sonics of this record vs. Achtung Baby --- both are on the darker tip, rife with distortions, and tastefully sprinkled with psychedelic effects --- Remy Zero's production has significantly more punch and depth. Musically, The Golden Hum harkens back to a time when artists went out on a limb and strove to create something different, something that inspires and instigates and demands, and that pays back tenfold for the attention invested. But that's about ethos; in terms of sound and composition, it is thoroughly modern and completely engaging. It is less interested in where we've been and more interested in what's over there behind that bolted door, the one with the strange reddish glow seeping thru the keyhole. I was bon in 1970, I grew up in an era when music with this kind of passion and novelty was the norm. It's nice to know that 34 years later, some artists not only seek that level of engagement, they succeed. Utterly.
