Another late, late note of love and appreciation. I can’t put my finger on it what’s different about this album but as one review said, you don’t know what to expect from the The Wildhearts. One thing I know by now since an aura of harmony and bliss started hovering over the band is that you can expect quality whatever the guys ventures into. Chutzpah! delivers such an awesome sonic boom and also an emotional experience only The Wildhearts could deliver. Changing tac and emotions within songs have always been one of the compelling aspects for me, it continues here (amongst many other rockin’ and emotional things going on) and boy does it ever grow on you. First it was a tune or a chorus here and there that got stuck. Slowly but surely, the hooks are stuck in your head as per usual and yet I haven’t discovered the ENTIRE album yet. To Ginger, CJ, Scott and Ritch, marvellous team effort and guys, you gotta try to get to Sweden Rock Festival next year. I promise you, we’re a nice outdoors crowd! Thanks for your time guys and continue to inspire.

I was insane enough to order it along with the last album (2 extra tracks I believe)and Ginger’s Yoni. Viva La Japan.

Yep there is – it’s got four extra tracks on it, but they’ll all be available in the UK at some point.

HMV Japan

I’m so stuck on Jackson Whites as this is the most hook I’ve heard in years. Heavy, dense, poppy, giddy… it’s The Wildhearts as I know them yet I don’t know what to expect and I get the unexpected. I love it guys and looking in Japan know to see if you released any special edition of the cd there.

Had my CD since the beginning of the month – don’t think I’ve listened to anything else but this since!

Please, please, please release this on vinyl – the sleeve’d look immense alongside The Wildhearts and Mondo releases

See you in Birmingham!

Really loving Chutzpah. No complaints about the length either: synched it onto my mp3 player as soon as I got it home and can listen to the full thing commuting to work and again returning home!!!

One complaint: why no Belfast date?? Fair enough, the attendance at Ginger’s solo gig in May was pathetic – but you can’t dangle a throbbing slice of 24 carat Rock like this in front of us, with no chance to see the new stuff played live!!!! We’ll improve the ticket sales from May – just give us the chance!!!

Blimey O reily.

Pleasurable, very pleasurable.
And all this from a little round disc, you really wouldnt think a little round disc that hardly weighs anything can actually hold such power.

But, the Wildhearts are full of surprises, and this is just a spiffingly pleasurable brillo-pad album.
Its actually better than listening to OCD ten times, and believe me, i really like that song.
Its the best album so far, yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

I am as happy as a happy person who has a pendant round his neck telling us he has won happy person of the year, again
