Amazon.co.uk Review
Like that attention-getting title, Zombies! Aliens! Vampires! Dinosaurs!, this Huntington Beach quartet brings on the musical exclamation points. Following a self-titled EP in 2004, Hellogoodbye debuts with a sugary dose of synth-pop. Then, once you think you've got the foursome figured out, they put Jesse Kurvink's hyperactive keyboard playing aside for mandolin-bedecked ballad "Oh, It Is Love" ("Baby, It's Fact" is another rare mid-tempo tune). The group is rounded out by Marcus Cole (bass), Chris Profeta (drums), and Forrest Kline (vocals, guitar). According to the liner notes, all songs were written by Mr. Kline... and his dog. And those songs include lyrics like "Oh girl it's true; I can never be away from you / It's like you gloss your lips with glue / Oh we kiss and I am stuck to you" ("Stuck to You") and "Present for a presentation presented presently" ("Figures A and B"). In album closer "Two Weeks in Hawaii," he even uses the word "rad." Twice. Okay, so Kline isn't Cole Porter, but his yearning tenor and playful tales of puppy love are a perfect match for Hellogoodbye's pep rally anthems. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Customer Reviews

Love
Wow how much do I love this CD?!?!
They write the cutest songs
Favourites - All Of Your Love, Here In Your Arms, Touchdown Turnaround, I Saw It On Your Keyboard
Basically, they are great - emo-ish happy powerpop
they are also amazing live

Okay...!
Dearest Hellogoodbye. They are, without doubt, the craziest band you may ever hear of. This album is groovy, upbeat power pop and is the kind of sound you feel you really shouldn't like, but can't help it. 'Here in your arms' sounds so familiar yet really different and each song has a new twist. It's great to see some quality pop, at last, rather than the usual rubbish, that everyone can enjoy (Hellogoodbye, I mean). Buy it- you know you know you want it- just so you know, I am usually a devoted rock/punk fan, but this is something they have invented- you can't put a label on it. In short, This. Album. Is. Awesome. Buy it, or I will tell Forrest and Jesse and they will come and EAT YOU.

Hellogoodbye
What a brilliant album! The first two tracks are the best. Hellogoodbye are what I would call a kind of techo-rock band - a cross between Daft Punk and My Awesome Compelation.

Buy it!
