This is the most mature, competent and powerful album of the modern rock music genre ever to be released. The flow that comes from this music is overpowering. This band, from it's affluent singer, to it's indestructable bass player, is the pure definition of the direction of modern music in todays age and day. Put this in your player and listen to it for the sheer experience of listening.
hi.laser9h@hotmail.com
This album reaches a grand scale intensity that no other album before it has ever reached. This is the ultimate ON. This is the ultimate modern experience in music. Nothing compares to this.
ska_medly@skilt.net
"Hilary Duff" is the epitomy of the musical grandiose. The ultimate musical appreciation spectacle. The Tapestry of tomorrow today you could say. It's just indescribably magnificent.
halflife.cranium@nonegog.com
What you would really have to do is listen to this fully before you comment just to get the feel of the whole thing. Comments can only do so much. Listen to this music and you'll feel it. It's on in a whole new way. The previous album was like a prototype, even a caveat, of the themematic composition of an organism. This is like the next stage of the dominant organism. The metamorphosis continued unchallenged to reach this phase of potency. This music is the grandest thing you will ever hear. It is the great development.
deffsquad
way beyond powerhouse. a firestarter of another plane of being. the songs alone are killing me a pure dead. there is no other favorite album of the year when you try to compare it to this one. simply none. there can't be. it's now been done.
destinyrelic
As good as it gets just got better. Theres no way you can walk from this album without feeling the whole thing in you like that.

This album is a psychokinetically overpowering fusion of many solid hard rock genres. I would say this is the greatest rock album ever recorded edging out the bands previous Metamorphosis because of its' sheer vista, truly relentless power and sheer volume of content. This could technically be called Metamorphosis : Phase 2.
rampage.netspace
The ever coolest album for any real music lover of this day and age. Strike up another milestone for Hilary Duff.
halkiddall@...
A superb reflection of the many factors of human growth on an epic scale as told in rock music. I agree this is a continuation of the bands previous "Metamorphosis" album. If not officially, then both virtualy and symbiotically at once. It covers an outstanding range of musical development.
KayjakPrimemort@altavista.com
One solid epic.... after another. You have to love the effort alone. They're both standalones on top of it. Every track's a standalone.
ga9yz5@h89FFclu.net
The REALLY splendid album release of the year. All others are up against this jolting wall of comprehension. A truly striking and mesmerising album. Without a doubt the greatest piece of art and commentary in modern music to come out this year.
warburton4001
the tracks on this are immense
drHilfinger
One uniquely and completely satisfying disk. The tracks on this are both heavey and enlightening. Plain good songwriting. And a birthday girl! 8OD

A brilliant dedication to the continuum of existence and the shattering ability of life to traverse great struggles of nature to achieve its wanton quest of transgalactic omniscience in the guise of a beautiful little girl.
adreniLynne@notcha.com
I just heard a dj say that this is the best album he's heard in 2004. He thought it was better than Brian Wilsons Smile. He said Smile was second. Hilary Duff, the album, the group, the girl, all freak me out. The performances and writing are such a high new standard its so incredible. It's nice to hear someone actually doing something to come out with something that actually does something for the listener and comes out on top. It makes you want to be a part of it just by being a listener. Just by listening.
collectofKyUiR@msn.com
The shiniest and the extreme best new shit on the planet of shine. Hilary Duff is the definite follow through from Metamorphosis. Metamorphosis becomes Hilary Duff.
KBferrianKB
The epoch album of Rock.
VINGO
everything else is second
leedzone@bt
Shine is extraordinary but it has to take a backseat to this. Not even that comes close to the spanking stuff on this beast. This is fucking monumental.
farsydablueza
The mother of all rock and roll albums!!!!!!!!!
JOEFLOW
The towering epic of rock and roll and mod music. The sharpest tracks on a single album in dacades if ever. Hilary Duff is a landmark album with no room for mercy. Never one dull seed on this beautiful monster.
tombadrummer
I think this bunch has a real handle on this great music. She's a great vocalist, shes a great drummer, hes a great keyboardist. They've got great partners and producers. The engineering is beatiful beyond compare. Its a unique striking piece of music.
Axelrod
transmetamorphosis!
Rayzorbeans
I don't compare music like that. Shines an awesome album. I I think Hilary Duff is a better album and far more intensly robust and far more powerful. Both can touch you in similar ways. Hilary Duff is definitely the better album of the two, but Shine has its definite moments. They're the kind of albums you just don't really effectively bounce off each other like that. I don't really think comparisons work very well like that. That's just my opinion.
splice6T8uyY@yahoo.ca
deathdefying songwriting playhouse. the tracks are so good they can drive u mental.

I ABSULUTLY HATE HILARY DUFF!!! SHE SUCKS!!! AVRIL LAVIGNE ROCKS!!! HILARY DOSNT EVEN SING! SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHEEEE SUCKS!!!! S-U-C-K SUCK!!!!!!!!!!THATS MY COMMENT!
koalalocker
This is a gripping masterpiece. I think she's a killer great singer and they're a knockout band.
dowaga
purely elemental rocking genius. every song is something unto itself. this flamers comment sucks. suck sucks. i don't have a definite favorite song.
bi-lane122
One step above Metamorphosis. The aspiring album of our age. I would say this is the ultimate music project album. The conceptual treatments are sweeping on an historical and social note.
okenfolder59.networks
This is the light at the end of Metamorphosis' tunnel. It's a supernova stellar creation of sound and engineering marvel. A super rock escapade. Every song wins. The listener wins. The audience wins.
BURNING!!!!!!
BURNING!!!!!!
g77TrEdd@msn.com
Interstellar psychedelia. The next stage in the radical centipede of the metamorphosis album. Ridiculously sharply executed and ingeniously thought out approach to an awesome rad storyline idea.
Gandolph
Totally way out progressive thinking to the album on the whole. The Hilary Duff team really has it down with this dynamic spectacular work and it proves it. It's nothing less than musically astonishing thinking.
turncoffey
The truest turning point album for Hilary Duff and mod rock on the whole. This is the shiniest disk in the world.
RexDivaR@cartologi
The authentic masterpiece of 2004!!!!!! The drive behind this music is immeasurable! Just plain immeasurable! A completely wickedly absorbing listen!!!!!!!!!!
trentdices@noname.com
Naturally Earth-shattering!!!!!!!!!!

Coxx8ocks@none
Prospectfully this is the best things ever put to a disk. CD, vinyl or hard disc. This is it. This is an awesome classic, man. AWESOME.
alynmdfg
The collossally aspiring best CD of 2004 and many many more years past. The perfect continuation of the collossal Metamorphosis.
troubador.netone
The new historical benchmark of the new mod shit. It's so good its subliminal on levels one may never conciously recognize.
ujHH
gives you goosebumps with what can be done in todays musical recording environment. the clearest best of the year.
Corwin Perisic
A succession of 17 of the most perfect original rock masterpiece recordings ever assembled on one single cd. This music will and does stand its own against any other historical landmark recording from the post-war era to the present. It is an effort like this that few musicians can successfully strive for as musicians. Hilary Duff and crew make this level of groundbreaking sound almost like an effortlessly natural equation and maybe it was. The music tracks found on this album is the stuff that drives dreams and ambitions of anyone with an ear for musical potential. This is the music that drives the cycles of life. They've tapped on to it and have mastered its every way. "Hilary Duff - Hilary Duff" rates a grittily and smashingly flawless 10 and if it could rate higher on the meter it doubtlessly would in a breeze.

megalopod@noaddress.net
10 million tanks in the shape of a hot chick. the ultimate band with the ultimate album. do yourself a favor and listen to this shit. i loved their first album too.
shootfedora
beats my ass to a stump with possessed whuppass tunes. they got a great sound and a great production crew. i would like to hear them do a track with tom waits.
Blindsides
Its better than almost anything I can think of hearing. Maybe anything. You know what kills me is they got 17 songs on the album and each one is worth the grade of the album. I mean just one on an album would have been enough, right. But all 17 of them and each one coulda sold this album.
dayton738Tty674@yahoo.com
I could hear a Hilary Duff-Tom Waits number up in my head someplace. Thats a cool thought. This album is a crazy screaming fuckarama machine from planet Hilary. I love it up my ass. Hilary, Haylie, Charlie, et al. Dudes, you are the most impressive gang in the biz. Do more as much as you want.
thelobster
so many beautiful potent curves. its a killer on the loose. even the low points are high points. its the redefinition of substance. its got real meat on its bones. the music is spectacular to listen to.
bettsert
Hilary Duff - Hilary Duff is the most beautiful and the most spectacular album possibly ever released. What can you really say about it. It's not something you can really put into words effectively, is it?

VICKIPIT
UNSTOPPABLY ENRAPTURING MAGNETISM. THIS IS THE GREATEST ALBUM EVER RECORDED.
niobium dynamite
This is so good your mind almost can't grasp it all in. It can't really wrap itself around this multilevelness or quality. It's not easy but it is the most enjoyable cerebral experience i've had from music since Metamorphosis or something from the mid 1970s.
@streaming.jamaica
It's just far too much and far too good a content to effectively absorb like that in one listen. It is just far too good an album. And to think they put this together in less than a year!!!??? HOLY MOTHER OF WOW!!! What a crew!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is literally the very best album of this year and in decades at very least!
pandora no.K
I vote this the greatest, the most complete and the most elevating album of the decade and of the century. After a few listens I came to this conclusion. It wasn't difficult. You might try the same.
venom master@living room
It had to happen. The new benchmark has just been set. I can't believe how good this is. I'm still listening to it all as many times as I can.
futurmac
Hilary Duff is the mistress of unstoppable ingenuine peaks of lightning wit and provocative irony cut after every provocative cut. This is the most extraordinary album to reach a release in as many years as modern music can afford it. Every listen will give back something new and enveloping. They are truly the band of today and for tomorrow.
bovanichager
This cd possesses a brilliance unique to itself and touched by nothing else. It is a volume of unique songs that can only be cherished and explored by the listener.
biker
The era of rock has become the era of Hilary Duff. The Metamorphosis was a success. It is best we be prepared to rock. 8D
fruitopianjustice
This album is devastatingly beautiful in a wicked witted genius that is far beyond just a craftiness or a cleverness, it is an entirely new thinking of the musical mind.

Real trailblazing stuff with an extraordinary sound. The engineering and mixing is boundless. I love the results.

I think this even betters Metamorphosis and Smile . Its better than Musicology and Sgt. Pepper. This is the perfect imaginable continuation to Metamorphosis. It's just the perfect thing. It's the 10 masterpiece of musical history.

Mammoth and special beyond comparison to any other musical undertaking in recording history, Hilary Duff is the songbook of the tides of human thought and weavings packing a wallop that will pulverize even the most insurmountable of critics. This is riveting genius with no boundaries attached.

The act that tells it like it is. Keep it up,kids , and Hilary Duff, and don't let the teenylippers' bullshit or the movies burn you out or wear you down. It's you who got the power and you know it. You're one of the different ones who did good we all want to have be. It's yours to be. You did good with this. Keep doing it good, then do it again.
jeffjammijam
Sincerely a paramount collaboration of explosive pieces worth their weight in song. Utterly monumental.
microvault125.3
A truly stunning work. Where do you begin to analyze this? With what track? Know what I mean? Analysis commentary in cases like this are never easy and there are very few cases like this.

This is the meter that every other band, including those with teenage girl lead singers, will have to dream to achieve. Enormous respect goes to this crew.

andreasdb@compuserve.com
this could become a whole new feeling.
Willard o.
Well, certain media and followers lump all the teens up in the Simpson/whoever family-type category but Hil and the gang are leaps far beyond that scene. First being Hil is no lip singer and shes puposely kicked that dumb idea in the ass in her live performances more than once and been adamant about it. Shes articulate, too, not just a kid. She likes to write AND do some acting and things, too. So she's done both. Fooling her audience isn't what she's into. She and the band want to play the real music so they're doing just that very thing. No big mystery for those who follow the band. So she's a teen girl. Sue her. Another artist that gets lumped into that category is Vanessa Carlton. Not her either. Or Jennifer Love-Hewitt. Yet another one. Or Haylie Duff. Sue em all. What can they do? BTW! This is a fucking killer masterpiece. I am in love with this album!!!!!!!!!!!!! Completely freak tripping, dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Farrrestaggg@commentary
The power of change brought us a whole new standard. I like it loads. Hilary Duff is the music.

The most cleanly solid new groove in over a decade if not over two. If you think not then play it and find out.

Ingeniously both skillful and demented in areas and perversly brilliant in others over a very wide field of range fascination. Very detailed decisiveness.

Well put, willard o! I can think of a few examples. Mandy Moore used to go through shit with this just a couple of years ago and still gets it. Alicia Keys gets this. That Branch girl has gotten this. Even No Doubt has gotten this. Who knows. Something weird there. This is an awesome album without a doubt.

One of the greatest classic musical works ever recorded with a sharpened genuine shine to its lustre. Listen to the mind going to work with the whole.
go-phonica
This has got an unbelievable curve going through it. Its a killing sonic pandoras box of rock originality by far. Extraordinary flip-out effect overall that could never be understated.
perflunkinGHrap
its a supersublime motherfucker that you cannot pull away from with ease. it makes you listen. singing, musicianship and engineering on this is prowess.

The Abbey Road of the 20th century. The Pet Sounds of the hear and now. You can't beat it. May as well hear it out. It'll get you good and it'll keep you.

this a sonic painting of the pigments and hues of natural thought. the progress of the human being journey and experience. tight and distinctly sublime.
olaf12_22@hi_toner.com
This album'll completely stagger you senseless. It's outstanding to the absurd. It's a work of music utterly incomparable to anything previously done in pop history. The quality is sheer dynamism unleashed. I completely recommend it.

Insanely ingenious modern rock CD. The new flavor if we're all lucky.
j.ramada.netphonics@youcore.com
May possibly be the best thing recorded in modern musical history. Worthy of serious study.
colalt@jumpawatt.nor.org
A gorgeous body of work by any stretch. One of the 10 best albums you may ever hear in your entire lifetime and that may ever have been recorded. Its effect on the listener is literally hypnotic in the most delightful sense without question.
ellington@whistler
This matches and surpasses Brian Wilsons' Smile as the one finest CD release of 2004. This is the best music I've heard on a single album by any single artist since the seventies. Every track is an artpiece of perfection from the first to the last. There is no doubt about that in my mind. No question whatsoever. Every single track on this album can hold its own against anything ever done.
gonzalesroboto
This'll make you Shine and Smile over and over again with every listen. There is no comparison. This is the greatest music in the world for all ages.
hottentrotterguy
The Abbey Road of the 21st century, perhaps you mean?? I don't know. But this is symphonic brilliance. A one of a kind ingenue experience from the greatest band of our time. The ingenuine breathtaker of music. Definitely.
P.knipher@nmicor.net
essential and mind engulfing sonic and lyrical depth give HD a vividness and complexity shared by no other artist or recording. perhaps the finest recorded pop album in history. i cannot think of any other that goes where this goes and the way this goes there.
guinViii@aol.com
So freaking good it redefines the nature of all music with every passing ingenue moment it gives to you. It is the benchmark for a whole new age of pure fascination and invention.

This album is an irrestible trip through the best thing I may ever have heard in my lifetime. Absolutely non-putdownable music from track 1 through 17. Incredible.

Forget the fluff. Listen to "Hilary Duff". Then you'll get the stuff.
rocktriumphant@hemp7orius.net
Hilary Duff is one of the 5 most important recorded musical works in the post WW2 musical era. This album is a single extraordinary redefinition of musical latitude that cannot be duefully compared with any other work of any other time in frequent part because it has never before been attempted within the margins of such a jovial compendium. It has now been attempted and it is the success that could only have previously been dreamt for a highest imaginable order of symphony.
j.ionkheidger@yahoo.nor
The best album ever cut by woman or man, human or beast. One solidly stupifying grandmasterwork of music and a limitless milestone for our life and times.

In my book and for my money, this is the album that surpasses "The Cars", "The Doors" and "The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". This is the only one album that does this and almost without effort with every listen of it. Hilary Duff - Metamorphosis might have cleaned up the pop acts and literally swept them under the rug, but this will overpower your senses in just the proper magnitude. It's a truly classic work of modern music.

You're all correct. I think this album and this band on actually has it. It has a driving unstoppable sensation.

there is an organic temperment to this music from track to track. an irresistable flow and potency. comparable to anything from the 60s era but very contemporary. moves like an unstoppable wave of listening dimension.

I love this band. I can't stand those detractor websites and flamers and all that keep saying lipsync this, lipsync that. They're for those other acts. This is the solid thing, kids. I do love this band and this music intently. Let it Shine, Hilary Duff! :D

Far outreaching anything on the shelves in recent years. A superb and extreme brava to this masterful odyssey and the group behind it. This is perhaps the very best group in over 2 decades with an album filled with new music to show for it.
Damian
The first great album of original numbers of the 21st Century and some of the greatest music ever recorded and heard by the human ear. Second to nearly nothing except perhaps the songs of the wild.

proad2faxx@aftweb.net
skillfully ingenious music craftwork make this cd and group a top-rate stunner for music annals. from the dynamo lead singer to the amplitudinous keyboardist this group is an explosive sensation not to be reckoned with kid gloves. they are the living explosion of musical modernism.
j.dixon
Sad and freaking creepy about Pantera. I dont know about all that. Just creepy to me. Best to everyone. Hilary Duff is the most feeling I've felt from an album since about 1965. This is a raw and fabulous CD!!!
shakebone
Extraordinary and never once for a moment overproduced, Hilary Duff is the greatest leap for pop-rock since the 1950s and early 1960s. Wrap it up in one album and this is the stellar brilliance you will recieve. Unbreakable refinement to the entire work.

Hilary Duff has a terrific little workshop of the band, songwriters, producers and tech engineers and such. A terrific little think tank that really shows you how it can be done. A really innovative team. The music, the singing and instruments are in a class by themselves. The songs are fantastic unforgettable numbers. 10.

HD gave ottawa, canada the best concert we have had here in well over 20 years of concerts without room for comparison. there is no comparing this group no matter what your style or age or what to any other. it wasn't the longest show but it was pretty long. it wasnt the full album but it was enough for the groups present tour. HD won't be playing the full albums, with an intermission to rest no doubt, until next year. so heres waiting for HD to come to town again. i am suffering from HD brain withdrawal, i swear. this group kicked me in the head every beat. what a fucking environment they can generate. its like nothing ive ever experienced before. this is an album with no comparison. a real enveloping lift.

Something like the fifties-to-mideighties bands its the environment HD generates which works with the music. The age, teens meets adults, even a few very young ones, and other things mixture of the crowd is part of what generates that for sure. What can you say. The music is the truest modpop symphony with a backbone story and meaning that comes across clear. It's an epic tale from Metamorphosis to Hilary Duff.

dannybrimnem
It's Hilary and Haylie Duff, Ty, Loren, et al getting down with Midnight and Chico et al that really make this album for the FIRST part. The "Team Hil". The SECOND part is the recording itself under Recke and company that help make this the ultimate killer piece. It's solely in an eminent class by itself.

semiacousticpenny@compuserve.com
Well, unlike certain other teen acts of the day, the lead singer said she was serious, and she was, and that it was in her background, and it is, and she had a rep for getting things done, and she does, and so she's headlining a group and cutting the albums she said she was going to cut, and she is. She wasn't in it for a cheap thrill ride. Its an ablazing album, yes, as well as being an historically ecliptic achievement in music.

This has got a highly dynamic and stylized sensation about the tracks. It doesn't keep you wanting or waiting for something to happen which is what a real album is about and should be about. Trying for an overall idea, even if it's not an interconnecting idea, should be what an album offers up in some way or another. Its a full package experience cd. Its very memorable music.

boundlessly original. painted with strokes of genius and a brush of the mental fabric of sanity. i like everything of this cd very much. its really the music lovers treat.

It's worthy of its place high on rocks greatest-hits shelf. This is in my opinion.
greymile-ChannelC
Very heightened feel rock. Very smooth. Reminds me of the feel of early sixties with spectacle seventies shows. I love Hilary. Keep it up! Cut more music! 10! ;)
LightWaved2.1.3
the studio mix is spectacular. kinda oppulent. great vocals and percussion! really right on the ball. original track numbers that will kill you. to die for. 10
davfarb1@hotmail.U
pure and raw hard rock and psychedelic pop mix with a killer edge. do you want me is a great track. haters is a great track. and underneath this smile. 3 amazing tracks. great sessions. an astonishing sessions album.
gustavoakerf
The drumming on this truly kills me. DYWM, Cry and DTK have righteous perc. I think this album is a great percussion album. The charts must be beautiful. The tracks on this are monsters. Very well written, performed and orchestrated. Really far-out monster work. It's understandably being called a milestone recording. It is, plain and simple. There's no album of any musical style released in this century that matches this.
fesensat.Satellite
It's original with very fine original synth by Loren Gold and the whole great crew involved. Very groovin in the poprock feel but also very hard while being very groovin. It retains an unreal level of grooviness that's almost incomprehensible. It will become a great classic legend of modern rock. I think it can't do anything less. It's very groovin and very groovy. It's a highly groovin and groovy thing. It's a 10.
psychopediak
Well, the vocals are definitely original because she pulls them off like none other ever have or probably ever could. There is not a girl singer who could make this music work but Hilary Duff. There is not a band that could have done this music right but Hilary Duff. It's a fantasic mental concoction.

i like every single track. thats all there is to it. i love them. its elevated. it has the fire down below. its genius.

outer space shit. the tracks are a full 10. thumbs up.

ya, its alright. i like it. i am sounds like the polyphonic spree would cover it. its the trippin cd. theres power behind this thats very keyed into the intergalactic network of love.
b.j.cocophonics
Yes, but the guitars are phenomenal. I love the guitars on this album. It's a real riff raff. It's in a class by itself. It's a gorgeous 10. An historical rockpop guitar high album.

the guitars and vocals and everything are GLORIOUS. hilary duff is an unbelievably smooth recording. cannot love this thing enough. too many variables to comment on effectively here.
Ear-tonicB.centraldna
I'm not for comparisons, but in 30-40 years time no one will be listening to junk like Ashlee and Green Day, at least not seriously, but they will be listening to this undeniable and persuasive masterpiece. There is no camparison because this sets it's own watermark.
kisso
The greatest rock album with the greatest cuts ever made. If you don't think so you've never heard it.
fine.nestro
i'll tell you i've been to places santiago, panama, denmark, cambridge, prague, where there are huge underground elements that absolutely worship hilary duff music. they are absolutely stung like a toxic bee. its an incredible drive. this is hilary duff. this is shine. its phenomenon.
creamyjenny
I dont think they should release many singles from this in its first few years. I think the focus should be on the album as a unison whole. Too many singles right off would dilute it for the buying public. Its a groundbreaking disk in my opine. Its better to have itself as a focus, as a whole work entity. This is my opine.
Cab Hallow
In America where, as is common knowledge, it's supercool to play in a band, Hilary Duff is a breathtaking happening work in technicolor progress. This is a band I'd like to play in in my dreams. They've got the music and they have got the chops.
T-Voxx
SENSATIONAL! I agree! A shockwavingly sensational band they are! AND arrangement is a major key to me. THEY HAVE arrangements for this music to die for. They are made to play this. 2020%!
SPOONZALIVE!
CUSTODIAN HEIRESS OF THE RAW CUT! WE WELCOME YOU!

poprock at its ultimate finest. these are the rarest truly deeply burning tracks with a memorable punch put on a compact disk. stevie wonder should cover this. hes got to record with hilary duff.
reboxx
Parts of this CD sound like modular synth or a very good v-mod program used in its garage pop setting for the CD. It could have been all vsynth or mixed with analog instruments. It sounds like vintage moog and arp oscillators and filters or influenced patches. Probably a very good mix with the excellent crafty trackwriting thats a real highlight of this CD.

It's a dynamic play. A breathing machine on datatime. Pretty cool. This is the real thing, baby. No substitutes need apply.

Quite spectacular!
larleston@yahoo.com
HD-HD is the most enormously intrepid and moving fem-fronted band. This is their best album yet in my humble opinion. The lead singers a girl burning like a fuse. The neopop suggestions of their previous album are overridden by the garage rocking enormity of their second.
sandy.s.sharky
really ingeniously monsterous. true rock complexity at its most epic. gave this whole screaming thing a 10. :)
mycarpalTS@homeACO.net
This music is a ride. It gets into you. Just a stunning trip. A real musical work. Ye, I could hear Stevie Wonder doing these tracks. Maybe a few tracks with the band. That'd be very cool enough.

Its got some really swell analog pads on whatever the axe was. Korg Triton might be right but I couldn't find that on the jacket. Hils vocals are just right for this. She knows how to get the notes. A lifetime of acting and speech performance payed off. I also hear modular Moog on this somewhere. Maybe on Fly. It could be virtual software like Arturias Moog 85 attempt. Loren might be using a Triton but he might be controlling softsyths, too. But this isn't spec'd on the CD jacket, like I said. Maybe the next album will have that detail, and like Hils mikes and stuff.
Hy90P@hotmail.com
a true calling. very clear good shit.

rockachubba
If there isn't software synths on this then its probably a tweak of the resynthesized analog pads on whatever workstation was used on this. Id say resynth. It might be FM but it sounds like resynth to me. It might be a triton. I'm unfamiliar with the pads on those. It could be sampled but I don't know. It sounds a little like E-Mu factory pads I've heard but hes worked on them to bring them out. This album is great, btw! Real icebreaker music especially for a big poprocker set. Really big and massive! It feels so "old school" but "new tool". Cheers. :)
rivenBays@jungkatek.org
Esoteric, ecclectic but highly syncopated Mother-Of-All-Rock albums. This is the sequel to the transitional teenpop to electric synthrock Metamorphosis release that by itself would have been enough for most acts to handle. Its a breath of fresh air. I am hooked.
alfredotennyson
It could be one of Korgs FM "analog" patchs with some mods LG has done to it. Korg has a patch thats sort of a modular Moog 85/Minimoog hybrid mimic only its Korgs FM synthesis. I'm sure the Triton has it or a similar patch, but he might be controlling a softsynth patch with the Triton. There is actually a full writeup on HD somewhere. Keyboard or one of the recording trades ran a couple or so good ones because I remember at least 2. Hunt those down and you'll probably find out. This cd rates a 10 with this poster. Its a masterful achievement.
apex234Droggiss
I think it might be a Moog 35 or 55 pad. Maybe from Korg because I know they have one somewhere in their library and that means its probably available for the Triton. I couldn't find any specs on the album, either. I don't know the Arturia virtual version of the Moog modular systems. They have a virtual Arp 2600. The guitars are pretty grand on this album, also. It is a fresh breath for a change. She sings it like it is, baby. I'll hand it to her on this. Grand killer vibes bustin all over. Every song works right on.
ollingtoncircuit@msn.com
A dynamite follow up to the first cd. Hil D is a guest host on some show on morning tv this week. This show must be a real boob job by the sound of it. Shes the real notable standout, though. Her vocals are prime. Shes the new boss. The guitars are exemplary, too.
Billy 2
Its a brilliant rock and roll frenzy. Coolness in exactitude. A festival of indescribable superlicks, doods.
Roberta Linn
This album truly rocks! Korg has an awesome sound library to draw from. Sometimes understated given some of the other libraries available. On a sad note, Prince Rainier has passed away. Mr. Grace Kelly and all. Hil is hosting some show but I've forgotten the name. Yikes! It's been a busy month for me. HD gets a 10! :)
twonky.9
A VERY hot album. One of the great riff albums. It can be done! NOT to be understated!
losfederali7@msn.com
Hilary Duff is a sort of a new tool prototype with real tremendous vibe. The lead vocalist sounds pretty crisp for a 17 year old! I can't go through a day without thinking of a track from this album. We lost Dale Messick this week, too. The poster was thinking of the Moog 55, I'd guess. There are some great 55 patches out there. Korgs got some pretty great fat analog patches that can do the 55 pretty well. Arturias virtual 55 is pretty well known. I know there are great E-Mu sample patches out there in downloadland. There are some great sample collections that musicians have made with their sampler and put on the net.
hank n andy
17 lava hot hits, baby! HD makes a solid connection, man! Sad about Grace Ks main. What a development. E-Mu has some great pads, man. I think Alesis has a library available. Check that out if thats what your looking for. I've heard some majorly FAT virtual Arp pads out there. You should look into them. Hilarys got a great voice, man! She is HOT, man! She has HOT, HOT legs, man. She DOES! Look at them, man! Alright! 8D
zomnitrope
I don't do softsynth that much, but ya I hear a lot of multitimbered structure to the synths on this that could be softsynth. It sounds like Moog modular to me, too. I think I hear some Yamaha-like horns and other stuff at certain points on this album I cant detail here. Don't know how it was done. Lorne uses a workstation on tour. I think it might be the Korg, but dont quote me. Its such a fantastic album it defies reason. The complexity to this is sublime.
faxboy
The virtual Moog 55 is supposed to be quite good. I've heard a couple of things about their Arp 2600. Libraries abound to start looking for a sound. You have to hear them all through if you're really searching for something. RIP, Grace and the Prince. The beat goes on. Hilary D absolutely sparkling shines on this album. Its a rock, skip and jump beyond Metamorphosis but it keeps in perfect alignment with it. The continuity is groovy enough but the album on the whole is spectacular.
D-lightplayerX.7.12
This is album no.1 on my iPod. Dale and the Prince, RIP. LG uses a Korg Triton. I'm pretty sure. If not a Triton, then a Karma or the M1(?). I'm pretty sure I've seen his setup with a Korg station, though. Pretty sure. Mr. James Dean is an awesome track. They're all awesome, truly. :D
jon
hilary duff is the greatest kickass rock album since too long. its very complete and in the old school harmonic dynamic. youve got to soak in this scenic to contemplate it. arturia makes some very cool vsynths. check em out. the 55 is pretty extensive. they'll never be the same, of course, but they have the whole feel and similar dynamic. i haven't tried the arp 2600. if its close to the 55 in competence it could be a pretty solid achievement. it also depends on what the player is looking for from a virtual version of a great vintage, or how they intend to play it. you have to take all that into consideration. sad about the news this week.
stockmaker
I think I could hear fat analog Korg patches. Maybe a little emulation of Arp polystring patches from the Arp Omni 2 era. Theres so much great guitar mixed with it. I think some of the guitar tracks might be synth tracks. Either way, its a freaking bright album, man. The best written with the best wit and sunspension. The all-time wicked wonder. My ears are loving me. :)

Unfortunately, I've just spent time in eurasia. The only thing that seems to mirror europes infamously traditional utter hatred for all things female and associated with being a woman is their infamously traditional utter hatred of electronic music, dance music, and electronics in general. Eurasias notoriously infamous "old boys club society" at work, as they call it, erects insurmountable lifetime boundaries that they don't even know they can traverse. Thankfully, there are artists like Hilary Duff who do not feel that weight of this silent opression. Hilary Duff is music by which a heedless society can learn the tests of life and freedom.
CORRUPTION@NOBOO
I like the organ-like patches used on this cd. The drawbar feel isnt totally drawbar and I think is a mod to an existing patch with lots of great analog saw wave balanced in. The guitars and vocals on this are breathtaking, and the songs are wicked tracks to measure songwriting by. Monster tracks. Its a definite hit cd. Give this a 10.
JasonB@privatemail
And their inbred hatred for all music and life in general. They have nothing else to offer, so who cares. I love this cd and the group. I'm glad they're kicking ass. We always need truly great bands out there. They're burning the garage while buiding it at the same time. Thats the way to do it. Gotta be cool. ;)
mandroid@talkshop1.net
I dont know if the aim was to sound like an Arp Omni exactly but there are parts of this CD where there is a pretty excellent analog like patch that gives the impression of an analog polysynth string patch. The orchestration makes everything sound completely fabulous because its worked in so well, besides. It just kills me how good this is. Its exciting to hear solid track pieces going big that deserve it especially from the rock pool. Btw, I love Arp string patches!! I own a vintage ARP String Ensemble in my home studio and I love it!! They're awesome!! If you find one, buy it, keep it, nuture it!!
mambo-squad
The "team hil" who did this proves they are the best album cutting team in the business. Hilary Duff is the killer queen. There are few albums in recording history that can compare to HDHD. Extreme subtlety and bombastic levels for everything. The mixing engineering is without an equal. Its technically profound on top of that.
sonadog@aolX.com
Very much equal measures of rompin rock and unrestrained profundity without equal. Hilary Duff is the definitive followup to the transpop/metapop classic Metamorphosis. It will knock your breath right out of you. This is a guaranteed contract killing, man. It will blow your fucking mind. This is guaranteed. Its a fucking limitless expression masterpiece.
robo-pokey.
Hilary Duff gives a new sensation to music that music has NEEDED! They RULE! Long live the rise of the new GIRL!
Coolby86
I prefer to use my Polymoog for my string ensemble patches because the string patches can be so lustful. A simple phaser can really help any string signal. I'd replace a lot of drawbar rotary lines with Polymoog or SE patches if you asked me. Except perc organ. Perc organ has a life of its own if you asked me. HD could work in a Polymoog or perc organ on the next Cd. Thatd be cool. There is no one best track on this Cd. Every track is a classic killer monster from beyond the beyond. Very hot. Outta words.
oxyWelder@hawthawt
Underneath This Smile, Hilary Duff is a cheeky ass-bootin rockin motherfucker machine of geothermal consequences. They got my vote for greatest Rock Band of All Time! 10 Years After, The Doors wont compare to these kids. This is the one band, and probably the only band, making the strides with a teen girl singer. What else can they be. What else could they do. To the Hilary a daughter. A rocker on solid ground.
donfederalis.Y-Mo
it burns but feels good about it. the tracks on this are inspiration for a next age of tracks out of this sound. it is a completeness. it just moves and makes you move or stand up on end.
Dr.HeadKick
I love tone wheel organ! I could hear HD with that! Hilary Duff is the sound we'ed be hearing more of by more acts if "mainstream" music were serious and active again instead of being subscriptive and passive. This is a learning experience for us all.
DemoGlobin
No elevator music. All elevation music. All accelerator music. Music reaches new heights and grounds. Hilary Duff!!!!!!!!!
aniumlik
maybe prescriptive and passive but yes you said it. hd is the new planetary wave. it drives the skies.
Kenny Ponty.AC.edu
Drawbar organs, string ensembles, Polymoogs and analog polysynths each have voices of their own and could probably be used in place of the other if you do it right. They all have their followers. The Polymoog is a rare and exceptional instrument. Basically it's a synth fed by electronic organ tones instead of synth oscillator waveforms. I don't think there's been another instrument made quite like it. Its worshipped by its owners. Other unique worshipped instruments in their own class are the Roland Vocoder-Plus, The E-Mu Emulator, the first model with the floppy drive, and The Minimoog, because of things like its never equalled 3 Moog oscillators. All of these instruments will probably be reintroduced in some new-age retroform. Loren Gold uses a Korg Triton Extreme. He also has played a Korg Triton Studio and a Korg 01/WFD. If you split the signal from a string ensemble and run one through a phaser and the other clean and mix them, if you mix them right and set the phaser right, you can get the most unbelievably organic string sound. If you do this repeatedly and layer the signal in recording or live, you can adjust the phase and balance to generate the most beautifully subtle strings with such a wicked texture. Then you can play with it even more. Incidently, Hilary Duff has gobbled up more memory and playing time on my MP3 player than any other artist now, so I'll be looking forward to whatever else they're planning with a vengence. HD is an important phase for contemporary music in general, not the least of which is for the singer being a serious artist who happens to be a teenager as many artists of the past had been too, without methods of disharmonious bribery, if you catch my drift. Also, when the singer says "her music", she really means it because she is actually one of the cowriters of her superstrong production team and not just a frontpiece, not that there's anything wrong with being just a frontpiece, of course. They're also not afraid of doing covers, cause music is music no matter how many ways you play it. Korgs library tends often to play on sources like the vintage American instruments from the 50s through 80s eras. Rolands library tends often to play on real analog and digital sound synthesis patches of its own. Roland is sometimes called lighter sounding or more experimental sounding because of its own factory sound library but both Roland and Korg are synths. Rolands can sound as ballsy as anything else if you make it so. They've both got the tools. So it all depends on the particulars. And yes, HILARY DUFF ROCKS! YOU GET IT!
karniverus
I love E-Mu modular gear. I've always used E-Mu and I always will. I like the Roland sound. You're hearing some great guitar riffraffs from Hilary. I'm convinced they send the guitar signal through synth filtering or maybe play guitar pads on synth or to accompany the guitar bars. There's some very beautiful mindbusting texturing going on with these tracks on the album. It's a warm sigh to hear young rock being so freaking big about everything. I think thats one reason why I like them so much.
buckstopsdd
U want a great Korg axe? The MS2000B!!!! I swear by this machine! Get experimental! You can get very experimental with this! Highly recommended! LG/HD would like one of these! I was turned on by this album since I heard it the first time. It is the most definitive and provocative rock symphony ever recorded even if it was meant to be an intimate symphony of the spheres.
v.c.trucks
Polymoogs are freaky cool sounding keyboards. I know someone whos got one. Its got this freak thing going on with it. Its booker t meets vangelis, seriously. It can do the spaciest groove things. Hilary Duff is music you can't constrict yourself to comment upon in a fully wordsworthy literal dimension. You have to introduce the multidimensional aspects of the music into the debate. You have to explore the depths of its conciousness by listening to it, otherwise you will debate it into an infinity of absurdities. This sound otherwise matches and supercedes all probable and predictable introspection.
VexREM@msn.com
Hilary Duff is the best music on the bigrock horizon in what seems like over 2 decades and sadly is. I swear by them. They got me in and they can keep me. haha I thought Buchla and Kurzweil made some very unique hardware. Its always a great feeling to find an instrument you feel so comfortable with. Especially when the instrument is flexible and you're in the mood. :)
dixonSatmyhome
Weird but quantifiably groovy
tumbleweedgirl
The grooviest of the groovy. All the more reason to produce a vinyl LP of this groups records. Its time.
EclipsoCalypso@k2o4n6t8r3a7s5t.net
Hilary has this music that should be listened to and comprehended. It is a great album without any contradiction. I think the human endevor to define its voice has finally reached the next level with their music. Thats what it really means if you want to take it like that. Id love if Moog produced a Polymoog along the lines of the Voyager to the Minimoog. Virtual or analog or a mix. Even a Polymoog controller clone like the Korg Legacy Collection to the MS-20. Full-size or 4/5 scale would be cool. A 4/5 scale minikeys repro Polymooge Id be very cool with. Id probably prefer full keys but I wouldnt complain. And with a hardcase body and legs all made for stacking.
FabianZ......@......
not wondermints or new order but with its own sound development it defines itself more without any comparisons. i hear the like jellyfish and who stable. bit of janis maybe and blondie maybe but really not either. its probably difficult to pin down because they went for originality on all the tracks and some press plays on lead singers age being a teen and her sister act thing but theyve gone beyond that by now and always have. its a guitar album no matter what you say but it could be other things as well. also the shining fem vocal album. the butterfly effect from first album is working even bigger here. hear it for its own not for anything else and you will hear the music in its own biggest way but impossible not to hear it anyway but its own way. this is why its the grand masterpiece.
hogbob
yah lets get some quality new vinyl lps made of hds records. i heard people asking about this for metamorphosis and now for this. i suppose some are out there but id like them official from hd now. hilary duff is the finest rock record in historical record. hearing it is the proof.
Nitrous@xxxxx.xxx
This cd takes my vote for best rock/pop recording artist - group. The majestic track material is eyepopping. Theres so much content on this album its worth praise from me it hasn't got yet because I find new things about it that keep standing out every time I listen to it. Its a total 10 level cd.
mountainsnake@lima
Its one of the great albums. One of the timeless best in my opinion. It fully stands beside and above any recording of the 1960s. Listening to it is like being given the power of life. This is in very many ways life music.
mastriba
It might be the best I've heard. Closer like a Blondie/Pink Floyd feel than a Beatles/Alice Cooper per se. Its different than Pink Floyds progressive stuff per se and like Heart in a way but it sure isnt pop in the sense of teen pop. Its progressive rock with a poprock harmonic progression and lyrical structure. Heart was like this and so were Devo and the Police! Toto was like this! Even Phil Collins did this in a way! REM does this! Its got lots of potential comparisons, possibly, but its really got itself the most!
thomkrisko
Personally I prefer it over Sgt.Pepper and Steamboat Annie and other 60s, 70s stuff. Great eras, but this is wickedly defining of today in the grandest of scales. This is actually extraordinarily good on the scale of recorded music. Hilary Duff is a genuine masterpiece work. And to those synth players, another great synth idea was the CS series from Yamaha which had ring modulators and, if I remember, some other very unique modulators that made these real standout instruments.
cliftonnotese@2library
Its a great guitar album, drumming album, singing album, songwriting album, everything album. Its a unique musical novel.
bloodgarbage@msn.ca
I think this album is flying gobs over anything else that came out of the so-called "teen sound" idea thing. Technically, Hilary Duff never came from the teen sound, except that the lead singer the band borrowed the name from is a teen. Otherwise this music is something else entirely. There is no comparison.
thrush j.b.
one of the grand postmodern efforts. at least its got that. and its got an enormous scale to it too. wasting your breath defining it would probably be a mistake. not girl music or pop music. powerful, popular music with a girl lead singer.
52maxglue
i think its real pro experimental trip music. when pet sounds and revolver and classic shit came out like marley people thought it was alien trash and retardo weird except they kept talking about it and playing it and trading it and never really stopped like hilary in my opine. something to think about.
d sampros
A new Polymoog would be grand. Keep it relatively the same but new with new functions. Keep the organ timbres, DEFINITELY. Hilary Duff is an odyssey and the bands the biggest and brightest thing since at least the last time rock really changed when cds came out. Digital music and recording has come of age out of the fucking novelty phase and actually used as an unabashed tool for creation and performance and not just for endless sampling of everything else. And the bands a real trip. What the fuck could go wrong when the lead singers such a breathless hot chick.

"Hilary Duff" is one of the 10 greatest records ever made for so many factors starting with the band and its lead singer and the song tracks alone. They ain't hiding away or making a getaway, thats for sure cause they own this building. This is the one definitive 10 record today which goes without saying.

It is actually that good I find. I'd compare HD more favourably to The Byrds. Bands today are far more open to their collaborations as in the earlier days, too. HD tends to open up about things more than many earlier bands. Its a different time.

One of rocks and rock histories highest and most exemplified albums. I think this is the best thing on cd out there today. I can hear other things in this album, too. I, too, can hear The Eagles, Byrds, Beach Boys and fifties original rock. But what really shows is its own sounds and ways about how it wants to sound, as well as use other influences such as those. Hilary Duff is a one-of-a-kind album and a devastating followup to its magnificent poprock sister album, Metamorphosis. Its the hot bet!
wanderer
this is a monument. this is a living shrine of popular music. this is the best single album to come out in over a generation of recorded popular music.

This is the benchmark album of our times, to me. The hook benchmark. The benchmark for excellence, for wild originality, for blow-up in-yo-face, and so whipping elegant. Its got the fucking consistency u can't let go of. Luv it all to death. It's legendary.
Gspeed.N.
quite very grand. a bit of 50s/60s stylization in the mix. i hear some sinister arrangment like bacharach/john barry meets pink floyd/pyschedelic rock thats quite moving and therapeautic. really rather riveting stuff. hilary duff moves and masters these perfectly esoteric cuts. its a grand work of design and function. very much on end.
bureim
The tracks are mesmerizing on a subliminal level. Incredibly distinct music, Hilary Duff. Chants of the ages or chance of the ages. lol Roll that dice!

its really good. i really like it. like space pills.

Huge commentary with unequalled bigness. If Tommy was a girl, she'd hear, see and speak Hilary Duff. They don't shit on you.

This album is an eerily overpowering lick masterpiece. Cooky with a vice music. Great for listening and for getting lost in. I find this scope to be one of a kind. This is groovy freak music.
fukrad.I900
groovy freak shit. youve got no complaints from me. its actually highly motivational. lol it rises above standard fare and completely wipes out the idea of conformity in contemporary pop culture. that alone is a very nice switch worth noting and preserving.

The only cd I can think of where it is proven Protools is not a total loss to the most of us and things are actually done right for a change to make a distinct difference. Hilary Duff is a radical unsurpassed genius record for this age. We needed one this hot.

mr.ruffles
In an age of volunteered passivness, comes this one grandiose masterstroke journal of cut-throat original off-the-cuff nonconformity and remarkablness. Hilary Duff is one of the severely few reasons modern music ever learns to shine.
opengroovic
flipping excellent especially when you take into consideration that they're really a live band. the tracks by themselves take you on that magic carpet ride beyond the stars.

If The Blue Oyster Cult or The Animals were kids again with girl bandmembers today theyd be real animals in a real cult. The biggest and best fucking cult in rock and roll! Hilary Duff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm more of a distortion guy. 90% of the rock I listen to is distortion metal. I, however, think that the tracks on this album, the album itself, are fated to become singular legendary works of music arts and crafts. I think Hilary Duff is the complete bomb and the boot up the effectual ass the contemporary mess really needs to start the fire happening again. This fire has been started. It is a burning rage.
dr.defendo
why do so many distortion guys talk in in such raging allegory. lolol.... i think HD will be considered by many music lovers to be the best thing ever put on disk. i also think it stands up to any of the greats of pop music as well as the sometimes "greater" knock-off works which i shall choose not to elaborate on at this date and time. lolol
Leggshowdolls.pr
HD has its share of distotion metal and almost everything else I can make out but its amazingly arranged into the great weave. The album is overwhelming!!!!! Its got a great structure to it thats rare. Jennifer Lopez's and Steve Vai's cds are both attempts at this I think, but HD is a real jump for this musical idea. Those are good, however, but they are lost compared to this cd. HD really is "THE MONSTER ROCK ALBUM" in every way!!!!!!!!!!!
gannei
after you listen to it it feels like youve been slowly eaten by sharks but are still alive and like it.

I don't know if this is more of a listening album or I think more a thinking album. Both, probable? It does both better than I've heard it from any artists. Unbelievable and highly enriching.

Incredible highly stimulating pop album. An effectual extension to the pop cult smash Metamorphosis but the next phase in the physical timeline.

a beat album! this is a beat music album, you know!!!!! for all intents and purposes, this is beat music!!!!!!!! i think its sensational!!!!! the singer's a fetch and the whole band are hoots!!!!!!!!
Dom_oompha@msn.com
a perhaps partial-autobiographical magnum opus of pop pleasuredome of the band members with exalted covergirl lead singer and guitarist. a complex musical masterpiece in the most gargantuan and transgalactic spectacle of scales. worth every listen for its universal thematics, schematics and semantics.
twilight@twilight
eerie crossreference of doom meeting natural bliss depictions. draws very vivid pictures.
joeshackles
This has got a very definite and unique garage quality feel and intensity and lust with extensive exospatial/introspatial end stuff. Its got this very interesting and intriguing continuity throughout the length of the entire album that stands up to the closest scrutiny I could maintain. It's a real authentic mindblowing piece of art.
pissdodger@aol.com
Psychocollectively stimulating musical epic recording in a way that's never been attempted before so successfully. This reminds me of the 50s and 60s era movements but definitely today and right now. The powerful vocals and instruments from the band really cap off and highlight it all gloriously. The singer and bands name may have been 16 when they recorded this but its unquestionable her vocals are omnisciently powerful and unbendingly tumultuous at every moment to the next exhibiting an expressive force balanced solely perhaps by nature herself. This is one venomously mod band to definitely be reckoned with.

Hilary Duff is the first grand masterpiece of original music in at least 30 years. Technically the second, if you count its brilliant prologue companion album Metamorphosis which is definitely a masterpiece worth the listen if you haven't already.
musiccoldrump
theres enough serious loudness on this to do some serious harm and enough psychedelia to space out the best of us. 10 and then some.

If you're a composer this is one of the handful of artists you should have in your stash and be taking studious notes on and this is their most extensive work to date.

One of the 5 most important rock albums ever recorded. Pet Sounds, Saucer Full of Secrets, Catch A Fire and Metamorphosis. It bears some relational resemblence to these as they do with each other, especially, as it is the follow up, but not exclusively, Metamorphosis. Hilary Duff is Monster. Hilary Duff is Empress.

Great album with killer tracks. Zone of its own.

This album has a phenomenal naturally synced feeling to it that more than works in its favor. It enhances the glorious track sessions and mixedowns and the fntastic vocal and instrumental session work by the band. Hilary, Shauney, Ty, Loren, Sibucao and Jason! The GREATEST Rock And Roll Band in the World!

This is an awesome album. It is Metamorphosis in higher-dimensional polymath. Metamorphosis evolved and eclipsed. A natural condition.

Great album. One of the greats, if not THE great album of our time, imo. This is guitar lick paradise. Guitar players can love this sick. I love The Last Song. After listening to the whole album, the acoustic guitar on that track sends that chill through you like nothing I've ever felt. Thats music.
DeathBadger5000
total experience. think they did the ultimate job on this album.

This record is so good it's ethereal. It's downright chilling at times, but so beautiful you don't really notice. I agree scant few records have really ever approached being this good. It's on its own.

One of the awsome bands of recent rock history and real mindblower rockers in their own rite. The barbarellian lead singer, although by far and wide best known for her musical work with the band that takes her name, is also an actress with a few movie and tv successes under her leather belt. The keyboardist has previously worked with some of the best young rockers in the business. The drummer is one of the best drummers you can find on Earth! The guitarist is a maestro wiz with soloing and rythm in the digital domain, reminiscent of Buddy Holly meets the droning of Tangerine Dream. The bass player, the usual axe player, is a solid funk and reggae capable foundation machine capable of monster thick bass extremes. The chorus singers are the best sounding and visualy bizarro trio so right for the party you'd think they were the gatekeepers. They're an awesome band to bign with. The music just steps them all up to the top of the rock pedestal. The music is king. The band is king. Hilary Duff are the New Emperors. They are The Originals. This is indisputable. They are The Indisputable. That's what is is. That's my 2 cents worth of comments.
BassDocta
The singer was on some stupid tv show where the host actually said she was best known for some tv show she did several years ago. Like from what fucking planet did this guy just come from? HD is shrink rapping the fucking planet with digital sound. Guess he never gets out of his cage much. Gotta learn to cook, dude!
Capricorn-E
whatever any of them do as actors can never overshadow how far they've gone with the group. it's as simple as that. they've done acting to arranging to producing. they do music videos. concert videos. what can you do. all the tv series in the world can't remove from how freaking gargantuan they are as a group. their music far overshadows their other exploits. common knowledge. do the math and the psychology. work it out. most tv hosts are conveyers of the alternate education system of utter stupidity and mindbending bewilderment of reality. i wouldn't graduate from that dump. HD - HD is the supersensation and the ultrabomb in one. no assembly required.

This is the ultimate adventure of mind, body and sound. They really do fly with this in the grandest possible distinction and schemes.

Hilary's movies are always good. For anyone, but often with good fun elements. One of the few movies you can really count on. I like them too because the band contributes to the soundtrack of all of them and even appears in them with Hil in some capacity. Maybe in supporting cameos more in the future. lolol That'd be a cool twist!!! Put the whole band in talking cameos in her next movie so you can see them. The album is extraordinary. I haven't even absorbed it all yet to tell you. Maybe next year. It's uncanny. They're a very live concert band but you'll have to make your way through an ocean of screaming teens in many instances. If you can imagine middle-aged hog riders pushing through screaming junior high girls trying to get front row seating then you can imagine what the concerts are like. It's screaming circus insanity, man!!!!!! Sometimes, I find the media tends to market the lead singer toward teen girl actresses instead of toward the Janis and Debbie set where she belongs but thats largely due to her age. Mind you, its always been like that. All great bands were never taken the same way until all the members became adult performers. Hils the youngest and maybe the only teen in the band, except maybe the Sebs, so thats why HD has a better following across the ages. I don't know how old Jay was when he started out with them. Anyway, that's my 2.
earm jonasino
that'd be cool. the perfect man is an excellent movie at least worth the price. a concert movie in IMAX is what's in order here!! i'd like to know the guitar specs of this album. what was used. how. strings. tunings. chords. where can i find the sheet music. it should be somewhere. if not now then soon enough. what a freakin album.

Ya, They could keep doing movies. At least their movies don't suck. Hil has always done great watchable fair. THIS ALBUM IS THE KILLER BOMB OF TOMORROW NOW! ITS THE FUCKING TOMORROW BOMB! ITS FUCKING MIND DECEPTION! ITS AMAZING!

If Elvis or The Beatles started in this day and age they'd have to go through the whole thing HD has to go through. HD are in a better position to play their options. They've got the music. This is the music. They are the band. They are the greatest rock and roll band in the world.

Hil was recently on the reggie show from NYC for the perfect man interview with mr and mrs reggie. she looked incredibly hot.

The story has it that the Why Not video from the MM album was the pre-Hilary Duff document from before Hilary Duff was formed. Hil's musicians on that video set on the rooftops were Haylie Duff's bandmates from her bands and maybe some producers friends brought in. Why Not was then done for MM as the proto track with Hilary Duff. HD was formed by Hilary, Haylie, and Susan Duff and producers Andre Recke and Jay Landers and musicians they'd all known from their past collaborations. They asked them if they'd like to be in a band and they accepted. They all had associations with each other in some way or another and that's how Hilary Duff was formed. They cut Why Not as a proto track to be included on a proto concept album which subsequently turned out to be Metamorphosis. It was a unique move but it worked out. They formed their songwriting partnerships in much the same way between the bandmembers and songwriters they'd been associated with on past projects (Midnight, Chico, Haylie, Hilary, etc). Originally, there was talk that the band was going to use another name or had a brief other name until they decided, in what was a stroke of genius, to just name themselves after the lead singer of the outfit, Hilary Duff. It's the perfect name and it fits better then skin and it's stuck ever since, and it's already the name of the singing nucleus of the band. It's a team effort that worked out in cosmic spades. Now, the album is a stroke of busting genius and revelry that deserves its own review but my fingers are tiring out on me right now. So just play it and listen. 10. Over. ;)

vroomUnit@ayhoo.....
I'd like to correct a couple of errors of Computrexs. Why Not from the Metamorphosis album was written for the album. An altered version was also used in at least a movie or 2, one being a movie that Hil was in. The Metamorphosis version, the original version, was on the album. The Why Not video has Hil with backup by Jay Walker and three other musicians from Haylie Duffs and Jay Landers crop. It was believed by many that this would turn out to be the final incarnation of the band but this was not the intention. Only Jay stayed on, of course. Loren and Shauney weren't even in this video at this time. I completely forget the original names, I think there were 2, that they were thinking of calling the band, but thats all moot now anyway since they brilliantly chose Hilary Duff as the name for the band. They played around with them and considered them but none ever did have the impact of Hilary Duff. Whatever you call the albums stylistically, the albums are turning points on the music timetable. Rockpop needed to get back on the superfly and Hilary Duff are the catalyst that does it with such invincible eminence. Hilary Duff and Metamorphosis are each 10 plus CD albums on their own.

The Monsterpiece from The Emperors of Rock. Hilary Duff is the greatest rock album ever recorded.

More than a bit of Earl Palmer and Mike Shrieve in Shauney Baby. Some very similar stylings. Very excellent track material. Whoosh! HD ROCKS!
acredsnacreds@gomail.com
This is a hugely dynamic album with tremendous strengths and builds with unbelievable rise and sustains. It's a definite masterful work of originality. A definite 10+.
blindbrian
Shauney Baby sounds like shes got many influences to me. It is very weird that I hear definite Shrieve, too, when I hear her playing. Especially with the wicked live performances. More than a little in spots. Their drumming fluency and sense of rythm sounds very close in many areas. I find Danny Gottlieb, too. Hilary Duff has a young sounding voice for much but man can she whack the crack out a song or can't she. She is flooring that pedal. She is the mother of us all.
gondolauniverse99@aol.com
all these cosmic alternities pondered. in a strange off-center way if zappa was a girl he'd have been hil in some off-chance way. something to ponder.
Grundy
I hear Mike Shrieve and Bernard Purdie like stuff in her drumming. Very similar structure at times. The album is dynamite. Way over the top hot opus stuff. I really do love this music. They'll be doing the both albums in order on the next big tour so hold on for dear precious life! hahaha
Sen
Real Rock. Real Roll. All Hilary Duff.
Nick (tempojo)
I think Tony Williams is a fave of Shauneys, so a bit of rub off of Purdie and Palmer might be coming from there. I don't know that. She's got Purdies snare in her kit a little. She has those terrific explosive flicks and trills that reminds me of Shrieve too. Those solo fills of hers can come out of nowhere and cover these tracks. This album is a burst of cosmic energy. Its impossible to soak it in in one listen. Don't even try. It's got astonishing atmosphere that defies live and recording normalities.
ironbolt@mail.com
shauney can kick in spectacular intensity. i can hear the shrieve. sometimes her drumming reminds me of the guy in weather report with the looseness. kenny aranoff when its hard sometimes to the shrieve like loosness. shes a unique solid beatkeeper going on. a wild child without a doubt. a very unique discipline.
nosubstitutes@kwickclick.com
Great album. This is the sound that is and has always been. No bad science here. Just great music.

Hilary Duff is on the job and they are smoking.
d_bro_pond
Tony Williams is a drummer Shauney listens to. She's been quoted to mention him a few times. The band is outstanding. The tracks are brilliant. Very progressive rock. Outstanding in concert if you can catch them. The conceptual build of the album and of Metamorphosis is exceptional.
ta2ji96t@jumbot.net
Wake Up and smell the Hilary, ;). The times they are a metamorphosizing. A grabber of an album from Hilary Duff. I love it all. The tracks are real zappers.
beat_gro
One of the great albums I can imagine in music history. This definitely makes my top list. Played live in sequence for their next concert tour will be spectacular. Peace to all and listen to some real mindkickin' music with this. I used to know the names they were thinking of calling the band but I've long forgotten. Sorry, dude.
g.henn
Wasn't "Metamorphosis" supposed to have been the original band title and the first cd was supposed to be self-titled with a song but they didn't go with that. And wasn't "James Dean" supposed to be the other name idea they didn't go with because of a song that was written for the Hilary Duff cd which was already partly written by this time. Calling themselves "Hilary Duff" was the best idea of the three, if you ask me. I think there's enough bands with "James Dean" in the name and theres already a lot of bands named after past celebrities. "Metamorphosis" was a little long and reminiscent of 60s psychedelic bands a little too much, at least to me. I think this is generally the story. Hilary Duff, her name, was just what the doctor ordered. It works perfectly. An amazing band with always mindblower exceptional music.
essellent.MJ@jemmaK.net
The numbers are sensational mindblowers. What a vocalist. She's mindblowing live. The bassist is a soid player with his own ideas. I love them. They're a band of musical troublemakers. Real intrepids who can blow out a banging concert, man. Hot Major Stuff from Hilary Duff!!!!!!!!!
chromedome24
I've got me a case of Hilary Duff and I don't want it to go away. The doctor is in the house and shes givin us all a lickin we'll never forget. Grooviest cd from the band.

These tunes sound marvelous on a fender telecaster when you learn them down. The sheets, or at least third-party transcriptions, are out there if you're looking for them. Run a search and you'll find something. Out of this world pulse.
E-Mento
Love to all. This is music for within and without. The finest and brightest record ever produced.
sweatworks.net
I've heard the stuff about the names. They would have been good working title band names but "Hilary Duff" has definitely got the kickass thrust for a band name. You bet your ass. They're a planet pounding gang of rock and roll troublemakers. haha Real music mavericks. Hilary's sister was in Reinventing Venus a few years back so the working title stuff shows there.
flack_D
Erskine in Weather Report. Great drummer. Shauney definitely can switch up the burning. Really good band of good youngsters. The garage is really starting to belt itself out there. The material on the cds is awe inspiring. It blows me away!!!!! Extremely flexible and thicker than anything I've ever heard. Hilary's vocals hit it all right on.

One of rocks clearly monsterously excellent albums. One of rocks truest giant recordings. My music prof calls Hilary Duff's 2 albums works of genius artform in constant states of transit and flux. That works for me. You gotta believe its something. You don't listen through them without knowing it in you.

Way out freaking brilliant record. Hilary Duff pulled out all the stops to making things work. Thats how it should always be and thats how Hilary Duff does it by their very nature.

THE NEW BOSS IS BURNING IN THE HOUSE. The cultured light beyond the brilliant madness is a shining bright. I hope the singer keeps making a few movies with the band but I'd like to see that big concert movie like for the next tour they're starting. IMAX, Iwerks or Showscan. All smooth visuals. Keep doing what your doing, Hilary Duff. The fire is yours to bear.

I didnt think Metamorphosis was too psychedelic a name for the band, but Hilary Duff is much better. I wouldn't have gone with James Dean, IMO. There's a few James Dean bands out there somewhere, I think. Some great album covers of the past were designed by Hypgnosis, if I spelt the name right. So Metamorphosis was alright when you compare it to something like that. Mahavishnu Orchestra, Mashmakan and, of course, Devo. Still, I'm glad they went with Hilary Duff. It's that much better a band name than Metamorphosis or James Dean, IMO. They've got a presence that has to be felt for you to know and I think Hilary Duff is a band name that covers that. And the album... whew.... way off the beaten cosmic dice, man. Dig it and dig into it. Can't wait for the new tour.

Hilary Duff recently played an absolutely excellent commemoration concert to the US Armed Forces in a televised concert from the old Ford Theatre. I finally got to see it. They played Wake Up, an absolutely excellent kicking song. The way they did it was just head-butting awesome. And Hilarys vocals were true total killer. It was like Hilary made that stage do the bootwalking for her. Loren looked to be playing the Yamaha rival to his often seen Korg Triton boards. The performance was a butt-kicking, belly-chopping show! Just like this album and every monster track on it! Monster! All the way!

drummer for weather reort - peter erskine. excellent drummer. a little tight in his loosness but thats his style. shauney lays like mike shrieve when she goes out for some fills, and kenny aranoff a little for the beaty. these tracks are amazing. its my favorite record right now.

The Wake Up performance at the Ford Theatre was a smash. An out of this world cool performance gig. They layed it down. She moved the stage and everyone walked it with her. I don't have a favorite track on this album because they're all so freakin listenable and freakin brilliant nuggets of song. Hot show.

smoking record. smokin ass band.

Of Triton-idea performance/composer boards like the Korg and Yamaha, I'd choose the Roland alternative. It's just better with better sounds if you ask me. But thats just what makes me comfortable with it. Otherwise, I never use these kind of composer/arranger/performance boards. They're just not what I've always got into. I've seen Loren, Hilary and Ty all use other boards. They'd do good to have just one big powerful synth on hand for their live shows. Try to get hold of one. And one great analog monosynth would help, too. Great solos and excellent fill patches from those. This band rocks supreme.

No. For the USAF commemoration performance Loren played one single Triton keyboard. I believe the Triton Studio model. On a morning show, the one with Katie Couric, (the Today or Early show?) whatever it's called, it looked like he might have been playing a Triton Extreme on top of a Triton Studio or the Yamaha parallel Studio-type board. My observation. The concert was great. A little early and the cameras zoomed in on the teens an aweful lot(?), but it went great. Morning news show hosts, or tv hosts in general, haven't got a clue in the world but at least they showed the concert and I was up with that.
majesty
driven. original. give it an award for its artistic merit alone.
Avoke Bone-ay
Ya, he's been playing an Extreme a lot lately. Hilary and Sebucao are really working some killer vocal textures out. This album is a mean mother. Very intense flavour weaving in the lyric writing. Maverick stuff.

Chill-out music when you want it to be you can find that on this. Awe and then some. Sick with the medicine.
coldjazz@fuzionserver.com
cool album. she plays tama. my fourth set was a tama. i still love them. i'd love to know what sticks she uses. this band is an asset to the management at large.
black jolly r.
An extraordinary radical power shift emanates from this music. Hilary and Sibucao are trained pros in hitting those targets. I love Ty and Shauney. Shes a powerful beat keeper to say the least. There are tracks on this album that can move mountains. Hilary Duff is a 10 album to me from a 10 band. I enjoy it emminently. It has become one of my favorite albums of all time.
Treadstone
Terrific cuts!! Man, this music is on! The MIGHTY HILARY DUFF! This is THE CD TO HEAR! TURN IT ON AND TURN IT UP!
kingshill
FLYs like a butterfly and stings like a WEIRD, DANGEROUS GETAWAY GIRL playing THE LAST SONG. lolol I vote this the best album of the year with a song of bullets. lolol I could hear this music for ages.
lola_lever
This is an awesome grand album. It sizzles for real. Its a real sizzler album of sizzling songs, man. Cry genius. Cry hope. Cry Hilary.
fishmongererk
Hilary Duff is the greatest contemporary recording of original rock songs ever made on any single album. The proof is right there on the cd. All you have to do is listen to it and you'll hear. You'll have no problems with feeling it.
FlowMachine@g_mail.net
I dont know about the Today or Early show performance, but on the American Top 40 awards Loren played a setup of at least 3 keyboards. I think one was the Yamaha suggested to by this earlier comment. I think another might have been the Roland or the Extreme. The tv coverage goes by so fast sometimes I had to record it and slow the recording to see it. They're all great boards. It depends on the player and what you do with them, of course. They did Fly. I can't tell you enough good things about this album and this band. Just when you thought you couldn't listen to the sounds of today anymore, out comes a big bang of flipping genius. Gotta love em. It's true.

Superior monster rock and roll for a planet to groove on. Glorious music from monster band.

Music for a lonely, sometimes self-punishing, planet in a sterile remote universe??!! Cosmic island music for anyone who cares to at least be or be cosmic!!??!!
backburnhoe@mail.net
I heard a college station discuss this album on a late night show a couple of weeks ago. They drew some pretty deep and speculative conclusions, let me tell you. Late night college radio is starting to play this shit. I love the music and the artist(s). Its amazing. Its bizarre at times, though, but its done so well and that adds to it. The songs are true deep wicked shit with powerful style.
hardpelicanica!
The BEST album of the year and many decades. There is none other.
poguescrat
They Fly, Hide Away, Cry, Shine and Rock This World. Rock for everyone in every situation. Universal music. Helluva great album, many might say especially by todays standards. Compared to this, they could definitely be right.

HD is an awesome unique musical album experience. They're ferociously hot live, too. Always something new. Very hotly smooth. Really like it.
organscreamer@fido.ca
Love Hilary Duff. The approach to this music is trailblazing. It sets a whole new standard for sure. It's my favorite listening. 8^D

Real Rock And Real Roll. No faux. No monkey shit. 100% the real thing. What more could one ask for. Not even in dreams.
Topaz Back
Literal. Some satirical wit. Some cult thriller mix. Many twist references I do not comprehend fully off-hand. Social commentary told in a bold presentation with an enormous collection of triumphantly moving musical movements. It is rocks greatest album to be obviously clear about it all. What I'm saying is that what it fully is I have yet to fully comprehend.
zani
a little a this. a little a that. its a harmonious mix whatever it is. genius.
Asskicker
Metamorphosis and James Dean were name considerations at some points I heard that. I think there was a third name. This disk has such a powerful whupass feel with every track. Its the real Monsterpiece! The Blasterpiece! The Masterpiece! That's all true! The best album of the year without contention! Shauney and Ty are fabulous! Hilary is my personal asskick trainer!
Trampolina
The music on this cd blows me away. The political commentary, the riff factory it is, the fantastic mesh of talent and ingenuity. Hilary! It kills me, man! How cool is Hilary Duff or what???!!!! The album, the group and the lady. Hilary Duff cubed!
dayclineZCV@compuserve.com
they gots to make a widescreen or imax concert movie. they gots to do it to capture the crowd with the music. play the whole 2 albums in the album sequence. it must be done. a HUGE concert movie. COSMIC!

As many Hilary Duff fans know July 21st was Kim Fowleys birthday and I know most Hilary Duff fans aren't just parents dragging their high school kids to concerts for a helluva screaming match. More than a few of you got your stuff for Hilary Duff and know your Kim Fowley rockography. And Juicy and the gang would have caught on well with Kim and maybe will one day if all us fans are lucky. Their minds are of similar seeded ways you could say. By the way, Hilary Duff is my favorite 10-plus rated album of the year AND of all time. How's that for being a convicted fan? Cheers, dood.

BLASTERPIECE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LUV HD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HD ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tyke
ive read the third name was PROTEUS instead of METAMORPHOSIS but ive never heard anything more of it. the song and album was originally going to be called PROTEUS too but that was before they even wrote the song. then they changed it to METAMORPHOSIS cause they liked it better which im glad they did. PROTEUS is a great keyboard, but METAMORPHOSIS worked better as a name for the album and the song. it just fit so good. HILARY DUFF is still a way better band name than any. HILARY DUFF is the way it is.

Hey, hey, hey! Happy Birthday to Kim Fowley! Hilary Duff and Kim Fowley would make a combo worth a rock festival! These tunes really make you crave for this music! It's music that makes you want to stand up and shout it out loud!
Lycanthropecola
Well, its underground overground meets overground underground kinda music. Grounded yet existing without groundless dimensions. Oh, shit, I don't know. But it's got my attention for more and I love it because I understand it and all it's saying.
promarkpro
I've never heard Proteus. I've heard Metamorphosis and James Dean were considerations they might have used for certain times while recording or such, but that didn't catch on full time, but never heard Proteus. Proteus might have worked though when you think about it, but Metamorphosis is right on. It's better. Hilary Duff is the best band name of all of them though by light years. Proteus is also the name of an excellent groovy instrument, you're right. I know three musicians who own them. They're E-Mu's. This album is so much to absorb. It's a rockshow spectacle. Meganormous conceptual album. And Metamorphosis. They're epic albums. Gotta hand it to them.
eldon f.
Metamorphosis and James Dean were both going to be band names at one point or another. Both didn't fly for one reason or another. Hilary Duff was chosen and is easily the best idea of the lot. They'd always been using that name anyway cause its the lead singers name and it fits them better than a wetsuit. I wouldn't know about Proteus. I think there is already a band named Proteus. The tracks on Hilary Duff are freaking meticulous but it is such a flowing feel. I've never heard such intergration between tracks. Even the progressive rock stuff of the 70's didn't link like this. The Rick Wakeman albums. It's postmod garage meets postmod Wakeman. The lines are memorable. You don't loose them overnight.
Madman Orgasmotron
It's the biggest sounding, weirdest, most superb stylized type of concept album I've heard in my life. Garage meets Wakeman. That's good. Journey to the Center of the Duff. HA It's got such carry it takes over your memory cells for a prolonged period that seems like it won't stop. It's already like I know every song. It like a subliminal effect you learn to really love and accept. It's freaking crafty stuff doing this.
20ouncemichel
Outstanding musician artistry and engineering. The wicked excellent lead singer has a strut thatd cripple the girly poppers. Her buns can toast a stage blind!! Grrrrrrr!! Yesss!!
Demdambrothers
This is best rock album I have ever heard. Period. It's the stuff from Hilary Duff.
sweaty bob
I heard Proteus when they were looking for things that rymned with Metamorphosis. Enuff wit dis. With a kiss. and stuff like this. haha Seriousy, I heard that before, but I can't say if it's true. Sounds good, tho. It's a big album to absorb with all the real stuff going on with it. Other than that, the music is the best I've heard in a long time. In memory. At least on 1 disc. They go for the big one. They get it.
cleanYrap@citynet.net
Mr.James Dean is an f***ing awesome great track. True way over the top in the way it should be and works and so good it blows the crap out of your mind. Just knocks me dead out flat. Thats such a great number. I just heard it again and man thats a f***ing great number if there is one! Hilary Duff was the best band name. I'm listening to Cry in a sec. The thing I love about HD cds is you can listen to the music over and over and love it more every time you hear it. I think this music, its got it right down to rights.
Jack John
Hilary Duff has a tremendous killa voice, bunboy. She's a young lead singer with real killa chops and I love her singing and style. I had a young voice once, too. Anyone remember The Sonics, The Byrds or The Animals when they were young? How they sounded? Man, those were the days, my friend. Those were the days. Keep those buns warm, my toasty friend. Of course, not that I'm complaining or being picky or anything. lol This music is loose and exciting and these kids are that way in concert. And, man, what a concert they can pull off. I thank them for them. Stay warm and toasty. You're gonna need it, my friend. Let me tell you now. You have been forwarned. lol
ke.dzwing
I never thought I'd hear a band that bumped me up the way The Byrds do it. I considered The Byrds the greatest band of all time. Hilary has a sound that is such a pickup it is hard to describe in words. Go hear em live if you ever can. They've got a sound that is by itself. Some kind of sound. The albums got the recording end of it down. Believe it.
coil@mail.net
it really has got something. the team hil aspect is out of this world. theyre such an incredible outfit. the recordings on this cd are true fucking amazing. what they put into it is amazing.
donald
new mother nature. shes taking over. i like it although i find this music is hard to describe because it probably describes itself better.
licks_G@chex
If theres 1 solid young group out there today making it big this is the one cause they deserve it. They make the tunes because they can and they do it better than anyone in there own way that no one else can really do and will really ever be able to do quite the same. It's the way they do it thats a mighty huge factor about their music.
onely@hotmail.com
They have definitely got The Byrds feel to them. Very similar pump. And The Doors. They're very tight and loose. The playing and writing and everything is off the scale. They've got a new performance video coming out which looks very amazing. Hil has The Perfect Man movie out which is really good and poignant. Loren has his own solo cd out called All Around Me which is excellent. They have the new semi-collection cd coming out soon with some new tracks on it and its supposed to have new mixes of past tracks. Its supposed to have a longer version of The Last Song or so I've read. That could be extremely cool coming from them.
freelane_D
I like everything I've heard from them yet. They've got the true connection going on.
den
very smoking cats. i agree.
Rob F
They do a broad range of influence across this cd. It's generally hard to figure where to start them at. This is quite the arousing thing. Very impressive really with a big beauty to it. Very well done new recording. Sometimes Byrds and Beatles like but presentation is really more Queen and maybe Doors in a big way. They can do pop tunes very very big and wicked this way which is highly admirable for modern day band. The new video is called Break My Heart and is a case in point. It is quite very great and looks like it may have been shot in hi-def video which really suits them at least for a concert. They are really sensational. I agree with the imax idea but they should consider omnimax which is bigger and possible better suited.
nexter@hotmail.com
An amazing work. Awesome. I love Hilary Duff. Awesome sound.
trent w.
They're trying new stuff particularly with the digital recording equipment but it's not quite clear to me what it all is. I think that they change their styles and tackle all the angles of music is one of their real strengths. The Triton Extreme is a synth board that uses real tube amps so that helps for the sounds they've gone for. The singers voice is unique! Keep it for bloody sake! Leave it alone! lol If she sounded like anyone else it would be boring now!
joboty@samekes2.net
I have loved this band since I started listening. They are just gumungous and real and pure in your face. They are the future of the sound of being a sound I do believe. It's Kim Fowleys and Buddy Guys birthday too to you. Heres to everyone.
elem6tr@nternet.net
break my heart sounds like a hermans hermits track. its a very close sound. hd is very pre-mid80s in many respects. the tracks are definite mindblowers. incredible incredible band.
dufflove
I love this band increasingly. the concert video to BMH is fantastic. true sensations. I see all those similarities because its all marvelous music from those who could make it and play it. Hilary Duff is.
pam 6
Break My Heart is an AOL concert video. Go see it on the AOL site somewhere if you haven't. You'll have to go find it. They are the utter blast group. The Americans used to make these huge variety shows in the 60s with these huge million dollar concert numbers with giant electrical requirements. Sonny and Cher and Dean Martin had shows like this. The numbers were gigantic productions. This video reminds me exactly of those. HD can remind you of The Doors an aweful lot when you watch this or see them do some of their numbers. They are monster before your eyes. She is Empress. There is no doubt in my mind. The album is big, man. A big flowing album. The numbers are exquisite out of this world. It is really hard to scope it out in a broad generalisation. They are rock and roll.
twosns.nels
The music and audio on the albums from this group is fascinating. Utterly fabulous stuff yes. They have got the best digital production use I have heard in my life. The songs are real revolutionary. They sound and perform completely comfortable with themselves and the group meaning like at complete great ease. I love em!!
d roberts
doors, elvis, animals, everley bros, byrds, beatles..... hilary duff has bits of it all in some ways at least due to the real raw feeling of the music. they can keep it and themselves so very fresh and on it and can keep it up and they do. the sympatico is the highest i've felt for decades i do absolutely agree. they are not to be missed if you can catch them at all. cd or live. listen to the music. buddy guy did right have his birthday recently. happy birthday if you please. he could do swell with hd music and i bet they could do his something serious. i bet they could. hd is a solid work. this must be what they mean by modern art.

Spectacular! The best and brightest things I've ever heard! Few albums come close!
intothenight.edu
The definitive expression in rock and roll. The recording and the songwriting is envigourating. The vocals and guitars seriously kick my ass. Hilary, Jason, et al. I am trying to learn the licks on my axe right now. It is a 10.
John Sort
I wasn't prepared for an album like this from anybody right now. It's hard to really get a ball on it all. You need to get down into the music to do that and that could take many listens. The music is a rock spectacle epic of a different sort to me and my listening habits. It twinges deeply on Tom Russell like on Hotwalker, except that it's a completely different approach. From the rock end and the pop end. It is what I would call musical genius on varied levels. Give it a listen first and think it over. Hilary Duff - Hilary Duff comment.
d.s.paro
I love this album very much. All the tracks have their place. They're an incredible band. The music is definitely happening and it's definitely sensational. And happy birthday, Buddy Guy.

I AM!
jaspoul
The triton extreme employs tubes to process the sound. HD has a tube amp kind of ooooomph to the sound theyre making. The songs are very killer tracks. I cant say enough about such an effort. Definitely a cap on this sound they make. I know nothing about the band names but I have heard that they were thinking of Metamorphosis and James Dean as names and album titles and went with Metamorphosis for the album. Hilary Duff works better for the band however.
d_office_rph@msn.com
An engraving and uplifting work of pure music. A real switch up the scale of the nature of things. Extremely recommended!!

In part it's like a great big ode to all the Tom Russells out there. Its pretty amazingly keyed-in real music. The whole things a great big trip through rock and roll for sure. Its what it says right there. Overwhelming real stuff.

dont comment. dont argue. just put it on and listen to it without saying a word. its fucking brilliant. no hesitations. its out of your mind.

Hilary Duff is just alright with me. Hilary Duff is just alright. In reality Hilary Duff is real rock and real roll like your momma says. Real boys listen to their momma.

Hilary Duff is just alright with me. Hilary Duff is just alright. ;)
UnsungGoo
Impossible to comment effectively on absolutely everything about the album here. The songs are enormous. Ingeniously scaled. The albums off the hook completely. Its a monster. They really make this music work and really shine. Its a breathtaker. The best album I've heard in my lifetime. Easily comparable to anything ever done. Thats what makes it such a lightning strike. Hilary Duff is so sharp and the balance on the boards and the writing and prod of the album is way way out. It's all mixed so motherfreaking well.
caprisa@net
You have to give the kudos to this group for getting this music down on a cd like this one. Their albums should be pressed to vinyl special editions. Get a third party to do the vinyls. Limited edition vinyls should be made of this groups albums. This group has to reach vinyl. This music is just far too good.
phoenix.toronto
Super-impressive and moving cd! This is where the music went! It didn't die! You'll find it right here!
hi_buff
Its a gonzo amazing album. Gritty refined and impossible to define. Flies more than a few miles higher than the great Byrds and similar flight paths. Not sure about going to vinyl but if they don't do it then someone else should. Go for it. The music is on this album. No other place you need to look. Theres a lot on this, man. Its an uncanny work.
Bizkit
If this is captivating kids and adults of any age today then we are winning the war for better music for everyone. Can't go wrong with a cd that says its alright to be and do as you are and as you can. More power to them. Hilary Duff rules the court.

lofty, man. its quite awesome. so many parts of it are miles above ground. everything is above ground in some way. listen to it. its totally the listen. totally worth it.

This is THE unbelievably drop-dead killer album, man! Hilary Duff - THE greatest rock album of all time, man! Easy to hear that and believe it! The BEST! LISTEN!

cause it knows how to breathe 8O - its my fave release yet
jesterX
BREEEEEEEETHE! in, out, in, out! wow what an album they made! fucking sensational! fucking stunning! its music that actually gives a shit! thats music to me!
T. Ebba
I think its actually pretty incomparably deep. Its incredibly uplifting all over but it gets raw, man. And they didn't go for the distorted "wall of sound" approach you notice which I always thought sounded dreadful, at least to me!! I never liked that sound in my opinion. It always sounded to me like it was never done right. They can have such a great uplifting sound to them, this is very true. They can handle stereo separation remarkably distinctly without going for the wall of sound. It just makes you feel like you've heard something.
Jeffrey Dinon
The moment I started listening to this after the first few tracks, I don't know how many, I knew I was listening to something special. I knew I was hearing the best of what's been done. This is the best album I've ever heard. I concur absolutely with that thought. You know you're listening to something special. The best rock album of all time.
tonifox@mymail.com
A lot of bands nowadays use distortion to create the wall of sound but they dont use it very well in my opinion. It becomes a quagmire. On HD you hear the instruments literally pop out at you! Its fabulous! Distortion fx and all! Its different. They give a shit about what they're doing with the mix. The Killers have pretty good mixdowns but its hard to find in groups nowadays. They should listen to HD! The album and the band is amazing!! Shes a killer vocalist, man!! Shes putting it into her vocals!! I truly love them!! They are truly refreshing!! I'm glad they went with the name Hilary Duff!!!! It fits like a glove!!!!!!!!
Overdice
I'd heard Fly before I bought the album and I thought that would be it. For me it starts when you hear Do You Want Me, the second track, and you think.... WOW! 2 FUCKING EXCELLENT SONGS, MAN! and then it just keeps going and going and going until The Last Song, man!!!!!! hahahaha Thats funny when you think about it!!!! hahaha They knew they had something, man!!!! Try to do that and you'll find out how impossible it gets. It grows from Fly. and they did this whole album literally in a short span of time. Literally on the fly!! Not in years. You notice this on Metamorphosis too ya but this is the bigger one. Its the same idea though. they do it beautifully. they just go for good better music and keeping doing it better in all ways and they stick to it. thats the way its done.
pulp_n_paper
Uncanny listening. Its the grabber of all albums. I like the idea of HD on vinyls. I'd prefer to have them do official releases tho. They're right for vinyls. A boxed collection of all the albums with the same covers and inserts as the cds but larger for the vinyl LPs. They've got 2 new cds out on the 16th of August, 2005 so maybe they'll do a special vinyl set. There's always hoping. Soar like a bird.
rick
I'm amazed and moved. This is my favorite album. Its incomparable. I want to be a part of this music. Interesting to note that a few of the band were fulltime session players originally and most of the rest had done sessions with other performers previous to the band. Hilary D sang some vocals and chorus with her sister Haylies groups and Jayson was a guitarist who has his own cd out there. Basically they came from a diverse background and met to form the group under Hilary and Ty. They did themselves great. They couldn't have asked for a better connection. They've got the best.
practice_padd
It flies. It soars. In and out.
l_hernano
It works!!! Awesome cookin!!!!
55tyderringer55@footspace.com
Killer bonk album! I think these are the best tracks I've heard in decades!! Cry, Mr James Dean, Do You Want Me?, Weird, Haters.... it goes on forever. It's encapsulating of its own form of musical thought and expression. Y'know Hilary D sang a few ensemble tracks and related tracks when she was acting on a tv show a few years back and even cut a few other solo tracks including some that were pressed to an album or 2. You can probably find them on the net if you look. Hilary Duff has 2 new albums coming out on August 16th, 2005!! Yes, 2!!! They're collections of assorted tracks from the sounds of it but I haven't heard them yet myself. One's called a collectors edition but I don't know the difference between them yet. The descriptions around sound like they're very HD so you can't go wrong with that!!! Try going to AOL and finding their studio concert video of Break My Heart! That's an excellent performance and I think you can download it if you're an AOL member, I don't know!!! Try it out!!!
jlkcumbersum.
this band cleans the clocks, man. in so many ways. the full package. yes they were session players and theyve done solos too. hil was in a family show a la ringo starr in shining time station except she was much taller. it was more broad in its age market aim like the way the americans do it. im convinced def lepard were the teletubbies. hils sis haylie was a source with her band involvements. theyre an amazing flooring band. always surprising. i love them.
musicord
Its the structure. The way the music is done solo and in the package too. It induces itself to the aspect it transduces. The idea to go with the lead singers name for the entire band is ace genius. Its freak but they're a definitive cool freak band. They play on the girl name teenpop aspect to the max but thats one of the things they do. It can be kind of freakshow satire from that perspective. The Hilary Duff album was to be called something with James Dean in the title this is true but went with Hilary Duff. MJD is a cool track, man. 8)
2bitgussy@altavista.none.com
This is a true awesome guitar lick album. Its like a fucking lick depository. Its crazy stuff but its genius.
phaze5
Its cinematic rock and roll!!!!!!!!!!!
phent@mail
It sounds good on my Ibanez. It's the kind of music you'd surely play on a Fender Telecaster because of the composition. I'd like to see the bars for a few tracks like WTG and Cry. I think they're available. Its an awesome album.
cheiponga12
its got fabulous dynamic to it
breakjabba
this is one of the rare sizzles in contemporary music. it invites comprehension, passively or not.

Stunning rock euhoria from supergroup extraordinaire Hilary Duff. There's so much on this album I'd have to write an encyclopedia to map it all out. It will blow your mind!
hangten@bell.ca
The Doors meet Nelson Riddle, and then some..... its so well done and in your face, too. The incredible intricate masterpiece.
mr robert hood
There's a genuine euphoria that's generated from listening to the music on this album that equates it to best garage and basement recorded tracks I can think of offhand. Hilary Duff is a listeners experience, an audio paradise. A road trip through the inexlicable, perhaps.
spectrum-rider
The lead vocalist Hilary Duff has this little pitch shift which she does on several tracks and in concert where she raises the pitch at the beginning of words during what I think is often the 3rd chorus. She actually talks like this naturally, too. It's one of the things she does that is so unique to this music and just such a part of it. One of the great elegent touches I find in the bands music. My music teacher actually pointed this out to me. She just does this preternaturally. The music on the whole is robust, man! It's many layers of thought.
scanHalen
freak excellent guitars on many if not all tracks!!!!! just swear to this stuff!!!!!!!!!!
eyetor
the glide is on with the stuff. the bands got definite power tripping ability.
satori.blade
This is the fab album. Its the musical ride through kickass cuts. I find I cannot resist this music. Its that fab an album. I don't believe it took them long to cut it, either.
petrovioNf6@msn.com
Hilary Duff sounds like its the redefinition of the groovy, or the clarity brought about the same. Its a very wild excellent rocking. I couldnt stop listening. Its an amazing production. This is an apparently very digital based recording too.

cool superb sonic feast of evolving wickedness. grabs you and pulls you right in with no restraint.

This is my number 1 album release of the past year and a lot more. Its got the music. I heard the news today, oh boy. RIP to our great innovator and our great friend Robert Moog - (1934-2005) The man behind the music which makes me do the music that makes so much of what we all do Shine.
sandborn
Awesome album. Really something else by itself. This is an excellent original freak. Bob Moog with love. Sound will always keep that legacy alive. The Moog sound paved the way for doods like me. Rock on all around the world. Hilary Duff - Hilary Duff. 10++++++++++++
little seedling
this cd is the most shining breath of fresh air on a sometimes drowning landscape of colorless hues of nothingness. look the right way and you can find the lifesized portrait of it all. Bob Moog believed in the music. he was the instrument maker. RIP
DJ Brother Moog
This cd is the most beautiful machine of al time! Hilary Duff! Dangerous to Know! Bob Moog was the father of the sound! A synth solo should be played everywhere in honour of him and his contributions to what we all know and love!

brother down. we lost a brother. and a friend. and a mentor. and a teacher. and a genius. and a sculptor. and a painter. and a scientist. and an artist. and an architect. hilary duff is the epitomy of performance synth rock and roll. music has come a long way, baby, but the metamorphosis remains the same. the music will never die. rock onward and upward.
jean sebastien ellington
The proof is in the music. Switched on Hilary.

Unequivocally the greatest rock and roll recording of all time. The music speaks for itself in highlights.

this is quite probably the coolest cd ever recorded bar nothing. i can go on about it forever. it is incredibly tangent stuff. an incredible base mixture.

No better disk even thinkable. Hilary is literally so fly this is as fly as fly can get. They've got the gift and they give it to us. And Hil has got fly singing all over her. Hilfly!

There have been lots of Moog music and synth commemorations over the past week and Im going to one tomorrow. He was one of our great fathers and brothers. Hilary Duff is synth-driven, guitar driven, beat driven, bass driven and, of course, vocal driven ROCK at the best it's ever been!!!!!!! MUSIC DRIVEN!!!!!!!!

These kids are so burning you could kickstart a new sun with em. They are the true burning rise of our time and of any time. The tracks on this album make it a difficult suggestion to try to comment decisively on them. They're all burning in their own ways. Just listen to the music.

This is the superb killer disk. A local station jockey said, and I completely agree, this is the most memorable of the real music albums out there. They really did aim to make the music they like to make and they cut it to the bone and it really shows it like a mother storm.
w, delaware
If it weren't so high and deep and beautiful on so many levels al over it it could've been downright creepy. This cd shows the exhaustive power of music that is capable. This is the music.

Hilary Duff is the tremendously fluent cd that really displays this bands gratifying enormity. This is one of the real top flight works of contemporary music history that really stands up on its own in such a big way that words are practicaly pointless. It really elevates beyond descriptions and comments.

well, Hilary Duff was I think a soprano singer, I think soprano, on many recording and video sessions, often with her sister Haylies groups and sometimes connected to her television stints and movie stuff. shes got a young voice as she would have at her age. Shauney did television stints for a bit, as well. the album - its the monster! this crew keeps getting better cause they keep recording great stuff. they've sounded great from the start so its always a clean slate for them. I wouldn't begin to analyse the album here because that could take me days. it's a wild trip we could all use and experience. it's fascinating, too. they did it in a unique way that I like. it could catch on in very positive ways that I would like.
drake_blokestone
The Yanks call this "changing the landscape". That's what the album is about if I'm correct. That's true in keeping. Agreements and all that. Their landscape to change. It's as true today as ever. The philosophies of sort attested is a kind of cypher of a sort. It's a monster anthology of music done in very fine brushstrokes to put it that way but purposely in the current rockpop genre. I'd give it a 10 plus.
d.ren.fallofield
it is actually. what drake said. and great music. interpretationally its an exquisite monsterous fucker on several levels. its because its got great scope to it. its a very cinematic work in that respect. got vista and a big style to it because it presents itself in a contemporary poprock style but is big with that in very old school.
uplands4
Made me remember Jimmy Webb from say the 70s or Paul Williams or Day at the Races and similar work. If I can touch up on this, I find stupid media preys on failure of young artists but fails miserably against this group I have to say. They're too much into making the music which is no ones shock. The lead singer said time and again she's young and female but she wants to make good music all round. That's what they give us. Sue em. They're doing what they do. What were they expecting? Finger puppets? 8P===
t. dahl
I cant pick and choose tracks but I know it took them less than a year to put this together. I think its an wicked creature at heart or could be. There are still some people who think the Stones are in the finger puppet industry so I don't put creedence to that. lol
phil_untin@hotmail.com
Could be a wicked monster or a good natured monster depending on you. Any good music can be like that. Any Alice Cooper track can be taken either way depending on you. Mood affects things, too. Haters can be a protest or a victory cry. Cry, too. Always depends on the last set of ears. Boss Martians, I do believe, say I am your radio.
Danez
I'd say she can range from soprano to piccolo. That's a good question. With her style of singing pitch is variable and volume and air displacement is also important. She's got great tremolo ability with her voice and knows how to move her voice and build a column that works in its favor. That's really why she made the lead vocalist and kept it. This has undoubtedly helped her acting roles as well. The album wins my 10+ CD marks.
theodore rusek
for rock and contemporary singing I don't know if those classifications are applicable because singing in these styles can go all over the map, meaning they are seldom held down to a single narrow region of the scale. she pretty much covers a large range albeit in the higher registers. the music from this band is generally a different style than that to which those definitions can be applicable or readily thought of. rock has no general bias toward baritone or alto for example. rock singers are often called upon to be far more widely flexible in their concentration than singers in other styles using vocalists to which those definitions are more defining. neil young and geddy lee are 2 excellent examples that can be thought of in this context. they generally have been known to cover higher registers but aren't held down to them per se. her singing covers these tracks with perfect application. she was the right singer for the job. i can now think primarily of her voice singing these tracks although any singer could technically attempt them. this album has also become a personal favorite of mine.
markojones@mail.network.net
hd is a flippin excellent cd. its the best cd of the year by margins. killer killer tracks from what id call the best band i have heard in many ages. theyve got the shine to make you cry.

Hilary Duff has got a tremendous lift and life of its own. It rocks and rolls by itself and with you and all other things around. It's the best album of the past 2 or 3 decades.
Syrated_X2cY
this is so good i can't find my own words. if you want reviews, then a local dj called this a "frightening masterpiece". he said he "loved it" and its a "marvelous grand listening disk". he said it was "among the few best cd's he'd heard in his lifetime". that's not too shabby. i don't know what to write. i completely love it. :)

Imagine the Stones putting a hidden video on their dvd of finger puppets on a little stage set with finger puppet actors as the crowds and their playing Under My Thumb. Just a thought. Be a great hidden video for their dvd. Get a small video production house to do it or a college video class. Hilary Duff! Rock and rolls greatest epic! They put the shine on all our getaway cars till the last song and make you want to do it again! I think this album is a milestone recording that was a genius idea from the start. Let it Shine!

awesome collection of stuff
Laguna
this is the best album I've heard since before my memory. this is the perfect example that some albums should really be mixed as a single Mp3 track instead of breaking them up into individual song tracks. i would really hope it starts a big trend rolling. off to the side, stage standing room only, a blonde Hilary Duff finger puppet bobs up and down with blonde hair flying around to Stones playing Under My Thumb. With Shauney, Ty, The Sibs, Loren, Kayle, Jason..... hahaha that actually sounds like something Mick or Charlie would think up and have done for a DVD too. be a great hidden treat for a concert DVD. Hilary Duff - 12+ out of 10!!
bell_agogo@.......
I find this album moves everything, literally everything, down a proverbial notch. It's an amazing work from the first song to....... you got it! lol It kills me how good this is! It would take a long long time for the vast most of us to try to do this even close to this result! The whole chemistry works it out, another song ref and true!
franky d.
this is one of popular musics most outstanding recordings. it is recommended not only for serious and fun music lovers only but it can help. my own band liked this even over vrs contraband. there are so many things on this cd its impossible to put them all into a perspective so im not even gonna try. it would be my suggestion to just give it a listen first.
Angerine
This cd feels almost deliberately precognitive in its intuitiveness and inventiveness. It deserves further study on my part. The tracks, like I Am, and all of them actually, take on a life of their own and unto themselves, not merely a bright spark. I believe it to be at least partially written as self-intuition, but I could be wrong but I don't think I am. I gave Hilary Duff a 10 on the rating meter page because of these and other reasons.
baritoneroftrumpetville.net
This cd and this music has a very very big and regal rock sound to it. Its really indescribable with words alone. It's extremely big sound levity rock that finds its own levels one could say. I think its a supreme effort and the most incredible listen.

My favorite cd of the year, no question. This is definitely one of the best things ever to come out of recorded music. The group has recently done many radio and morning tv gigs and cohosting runs in America, sometimes coaxing housewives to rockout at 5 in the morning. blahaha The work is never done. Loren and Jason have solo cds you can find online.
Wantab
hilary duff plays the mother concerts. theyve got that sound to themselves. the stones idea is funny. watch them read that one day and do it. and hil and the sibs rule. i am. ;)
innocent bystander
I think what it comes down to is they like to make and play great music and they can do it in a crushing flare. I don't know about the precognition but that can always help. lol ;)
Getaway Richie @ private email
One of the most powerful albums ever made, by my impression. I like The Getaway, Hide Away and I Am in particular, but everything's brilliant. It was a good idea that payed off well in the end. Good for them. At least this crew tries things and puts their all into them to make them work.
Antonio
My band are going to try to cover some of these for some basement tape editions over this weekend. Hopefully we'll have the recording gear set up to do this. We're not a pro band but we're hoping to be one day so covers are what we do for most now. I think we'll probably try Haters to see if we can get it. We voted to give this a 10 vote! 8D
Warren
Listening to Hilary Duff and Metamorphosis, etc makes me think of The Everly Brothers sung with female vocals if they'd have thought to cut albums like these. The guitars are a lickfest for lack of a better commentary. They're quite enthralling guitar work pieces. Hilary Duff is a very fine and remarkable album of noteworthy storytelling and a principal favorite.

HB TO HD FROM KP
THE hILARY dUFF RSTER HAS CHANGED AGAIN FOR THE UPCOMING EUROPEAN DATES. tY AND SIBUCAO ARE ACTUALLY NOT WITH THE GROUP THIS TIME.
Got male
The bandmembers have changed for the dates in Spain in October, 2005. Since no bandmates ever really leave the band they'll no doubt be back in time. Ty and Sibucao became staples and contributor bandmates to the Hilary Duff sound, image and tour dates so they'll come back in time. This change is only for the few dates they're performing in Spain. It is now Hilary Ds birthday so happy 18th, Hilly.
Romo
They're runnin on all 18 cylinders now. :D

A breath. 18.

of recent albums this is always the most interesting everytime i hear it. it changes its perspective or application with every listen. and theyre amazing in live on concert. so hilary is 18. she baked a pretty good cake. theyre good cooks. not enough or different without ty and sibs perhaps but always on it.
?rain?oggler@msn.com
Proving the Duff Machine is comparable to Alice, Ozzy and Zappa, the rollcall changes yet again, but they're always in the band. The mates always come back to the tour and studio. Like a travelling rock and roll roadshow. Is this not what she said it was going to be? Something akin to this idea I seem to remember. Unbelievable music, HD. My fave LP. Happy juciest birthday, Hilary.

Supermotherfuckerfreaks. The band remains the same, dude. Ty and Sibucao are still with the band. The live roster has changed slightly for the Spanish live dates. Ty and Sibucao will be back in the band soon enough. Everyone always comes back to the Hill. Jay Walker was in the AOL sessions videos if you look. Hilary Duff is fantastic. Awesome band. This album is being heard in all kinds of uniquely wierd places off the beaten path so to speak. It's developed such an astonishing following its unprecedented. The tracks and the band are monsters in and of themselves.

carries itself far better than an 18. there are far too many points about this album to effectively carry on about on a comment page imo.
Zannetti.Mustang/Acura
My best pick of the year for albums. Every song has a story and this album and this band has a story. All the bandmembers are always still with the band somehow. On the AOL sessions there is at least one other player, a guitarist, which I think might be Jay Walker too, or the new guitarist.

that could be Jay Walker! it may be Brad Fernquist or Kurt Morgan! i don't know. you have to freeze the video. those sessions are great! Hil inc, aka Team Hil, said they planned a show tour and thats what they're giving us. they'll be playing the full albums on the next tour circuit. ty, sibucao and kayle are still on. Kayle played on Hilary Duff but hasn't toured mainly lately. read the sleeve. Hilary Duff is a mindblower to get into and i would not rule out a movie length theatrical video at some point. Metamorphosis then Hilary Duff and the other tracks from Most Wanted would make a fucking killer musical. thats the kind of thing Hil has been hinting at long enough. the story points are needed progressions. it makes the jump from Metamorphosis using this kind of device.
lkpf.forsite@mail.net
Hilary Duff albums are excellent incredible fucking masterpieces that grow on the listeners. They are really hard not to contemplate. They're fantastic compositional shitworks. I think the album "Hilary Duff" is one of the finest albums recorded in any musical genre.

This is the album Steve Vai should have tried to draw from before he did his. Its a whirlwind! We're off to join the Hilly! I like the idea that it opens itself to the possibility of a theatrical feature-length rock video. That would be the ticket.
Observer_mail
Very much the substantial killer cd from the Hilary Duff super troupe. It would be truly impossible to clone such a substantial mix. Real Rock and Roll from the real Rock and Roll world.

Tremendous and a true brilliant epic work. I'd love a Fleshtones cover of Hilary Duffs stuff. Bring it on. Or vice versa. ;)

The ultimate buzz from the ultimate Duff! Love it all, baby! Ty and Sibucao are still in! Where else do they belong?? LOL
warzonix
The Fleshtones are one of the awesome bands. HD listens to them. I could see some sweet bleeding over this. This album, I must say this, is out of the proverbial freak closet. Hilary Duff is the great proverbial Scroll of Rock! Hilary Duff is The Scroll of Rock! You better fucking believe it! This is the 10 plus stuff! The tracks are fucking unbelievable!!!!!
highlife20@msn.com
The Scroll of Rock! Ty and Sibs are still with the band, its only for the new dates. They aint going anywhere. Just for the tour. Hilary Duff is like a musclecar where they like to pop the hood, so to speak, and rev it up and take it out for a spin. It is the fucking best an album I've heard done. It doesn't fuck up the use of the digital domain which can drag an album down into a shit pit of mistakes they don't want, as opposed to the ones they wanna keep. They don't make that mistake. They know to nuture the digital bitch and make it work for them. That took substantial caring to do. The album is a work of caring and fine tuning above all others.
project willy
The Scroll of Rock! That's what it is! I could bet my Hammond B3 on that and I'd be right on! :)
dave.elmonds.
the fleshtones are on a new compilation album out. give it a listen cause it looks good and they're on it. hilary duff is the massive music, man. my band did a cover of the getaway which i thought was a mindblower. it was a kickass set. this band is what is right about music in its own blown up epochal oldschool rock sort of way.

Theyre a solid band. I like them. They do tracks that are solid veritable milestones and great material for covers.

Hilary Duff - gigantic spectacular cd. milestones of rock and roll. moving.

my favorite cd. nothing else on par wth them to me. ty and sibucao are just relaxing while the group tours some european dates. don't get uptight. they'll be back soon enough. they also had other things they had to fit in. this tour is as monsterous as the cds. its a full-time job.
Horatio...
hmmm, lets see. a hunchback guitarist and a piping hot set of identical triplet chorus singers. now where would they go? lolol I guess they're still with the band. They're taking a breather, dude, and getting some things done on the side. They always make room for everyone on that there hill. HD can be a pretty flexible unit. This album is a torrent of senses raising cuts. What more can one add to this revue? Put it in and play it.
dennis_M
a hunchback?? lolol noooo lol well hes got that way he plays his axe. lol He bends over like he's performing delicate surgery. Hil and Sibucao are extremely hot!! I don't know if Hollywood would be interested in a theatrical version because Hollywood is a european political satellite and they're against all things America and homosexuality to the core of its existence, as everyone knows. It's purpose in America is to criminalize "ze faggot loving nigger yankees", whatever any of that actually means. lol Hollywood's a dead end industry or at least needs to be overhauled from the inside out. It would make a sensational movie!! That's definitely the right idea!!!! They should make their own!!! I found not a track on it I could not clearly comprehend, even define, and just plain get into.
Hooverworld.net
Ah, Hollywood treatments. All those unwanted typically crack-addicted, antidepressant-addicted, obese eurowood soccer moms. NO THANKS!! Most are brought in through Canada.

I believe this is to me one of the most outstanding records ever made. I can do nothing but concur with that line of thought. We'll be picking this apart forever. It's worth a feature entirely of its own bandwidth. The other recordings from the band as well. It's something you can play and thoroughly get yourself in-line with while listening. This is one of the true contemporary masterpieces of music on record.
Anthony Stock
Hollywood doesnt get high marks in its propaganda against America, women and homosexuals, not to mention reality. They should just produce their own like everyone does. I think the actual spelling is really fagot, not faggot. I think faggots are hobbits or something. A fag was actually meant to mean an American smoking a ciggy in wartime and now means a cig itself. A faggot was supposed to mean a lesbian somehow but I dont know about that. Hilary Duffs the stuff and stuff like that there. I Am is an awesome track on an album that never stops with awesome tracks. I Am! This cd is mindstorming. Its the huge change of pace music really needs. Unbelievable stuff from The Duff!
W._Rochester@email.com
Thats got to be one of the most confusing and convoluted explanations of anything Ive ever read which strangely may mean some of it might be true. ROTFLMAO Anyway, this is the kicker album. Hilary Duff is the Monsterpiece of us all. Hilary Duff is the Scroll of Rock and Roll! Gotta give it the hand it deserves!
Duff_M.
ok. tys a brilliant guitar dude. he sort of covers over his instrument when he plays. most of hollywood probably isn't all as closed as they make themselves out to be. its changed or is changing. this was produced through, of course, the new HOLLYWOOD RECORDS. HD is quite the outfit. they rock the trans-symphonic. THEY ARE!

Royalty, like queens, are installed family heirarchy figureheads. I don't think the Americans and most others, go for that level of mysogony. I think we'ed prefer our ladies, female or male, to have real power, which is what they get when they try. Why is this subject even being discussed here? This cd ROCKS! That's all I'll say because I used up all my logon time.
uncle rebus
Hollywood is hardly anyones' specific conduit anymore, I would say, and arguably never was. Arguably. Part of what this album's about is the politics of such power as was being discussed from what I read. This is in part a sweeping electric diatribe of such circumstance. It's a definite 10 by any stretch.

its kinda of a galactic quest to stars
Matt Gheres
This is the most fucking infectious album ever recorded. How could you not fall in love with this thing! There are tracks on this album that are the best tracks ever written and recorded. The best tracks ever.
Cam
When I started listening to this album I thought the tracks were just insanely great, literally, but it was while listning to Dangerous to Know that I felt the album was literally the best Ive ever heard recorded. It never stops. Thats how to really do an album. A very similar effect I got from Metamorphosis.
sonny f.
I think the true undeniable classic and the unstoppable brilliant recording from one of the true awesome bands, as weird as they may turn out to be.
spank
its more of a parallel between the galactic overture of cosmic wayfaring and the dichotomy of the evolving social contract of the higher species of paramour. a constant remains but forever changes between big bang and little woman. from and through space one will expand thoughts and substances for a nouveau elocution so to speak. like a highway robbery toward building a greater galactic manifesto of conciousness. not a distant proposition when your part of the answer.
b.k.p.
ya i get that. its what comes from the mnd. the evolution of the elements of evolution itself. potent fucking cd.
Impressot
I felt after the first few songs they were on to something. It gives you that feeling. Like they're setting you up for something. It's spectacular.
Guido H.
Well, at least you're expanding. I thought something quite similar. This is the sequel to the Metamorphosis album from Hilary Duff. I think you're on the right context for that side of it. There's too much scope to the albums to allow any one definition to dominate I would think. I think you had that right. It's such an enormous and gifted trip.

brian_d._brain
I liked what spank wrote so I'm gonna go through that. - he said - "its more of a parallel between the galactic overture of cosmic wayfaring and the dichotomy of the evolving social contract of the higher species of paramour. a constant remains but forever changes between big bang and little woman. from and through space one will expand thoughts and substances for a nouveau elocution so to speak. like a highway robbery toward building a greater galactic manifesto of conciousness. not a distant proposition when your're part of the answer." - I thought this was quite a brilliant post. a little rushed, but really very interesting. I think he was right about the parallel between the cosmic relations, read "galactic", and the personal relations between higher forms of life. The "big bang and little woman" synopsis was cleverly put. When he says "substances" what he means is the elemental parts of the universe, or the cosmic building blocks of matter, NOT narcotics. The "highway robbery" was a cool reference to the song and the albums. And we are all part of the answer. He's right. That was a good post. This album can be thought of on levels like these. Its a 10.

The whole mention of the social contract in context to this cd is very interesting stuff from The Duff. It depends in a way because the album points out credible flaws in that thinking as well as the accepted givings of such an arrangement. I can pinpoint this notion in several stages of the album that all contracts are made to be broken and/or "rewritten" as better working contracts, being either better working versions of itself or something demonstrably unique to the currently accepted playing field. This is the constant of flux in natural rythms attested to, at least in that notion.

I think what the commentator generally meant by "galactic" was to mean a prime component of the macrocosmos as used in this case as parallel to the relationary units of living, breeding beings as they morph and mutate through the prepubescent stages of evolution. I think this is one of the best albums ever recorded. I really love it. 10.
WundaWoman
welllll, ya, if I read all that correctly. But don't you think they Americans have long reversed whatever the Lemlaes or whoever meant for Hollywood since at least the days of Lon Chaney Sr. and Mae West. They've long reversed the pipeline by now. And being Americans, they've got their own parallel to the social contract that works for them. The Babe Factor or something for sure. LOL I mean surely they don't let dumb little Hollywood run the show especially if they do own the stage by now. But talk of Hollywood is just a speck. This is applying to everything, wouldn't it? AND aside from all this serious analysis shit, this is a fucking fun album, man. LOL :)

Hilary Duff is a whopping sensational cd. I think the very best original cd ever recorded since the beginnings of cd production. Its just the clearly awesome hurdle they have leaped.
barcelona@net
I actually believe Hilary Duff music and their albums should be in their own genre. They're one of those rare artists that needs their own genre to define them in any sense. They're just too much to be considered solely by comparisons or specific styles. They make music that is too good for that kind of pidgeonholing synopsis.
Allison
The Americans have a social contract type parallel they have lived since before there was an India or China. And theirs is actual. That's where the mentioned Hollywood play thing must come in from that perspective. Washington's species and everything related to that. Unfortunately, eurasia never sought theirs and technically couldn't. The Americans live it by their nature. It's their structure to do so, too. Theirs is built to themselves. Pink Floyd gave a very good but comparatively limited perspective of this as well. Hilary Duff treats it in a much broader system of thought. Thats one of the many factors which make this cd a very kickass beast.
hilfortin
another interesting album from this band. its really good music above it all. its 10 plus plus.

I can remember remarkably similar discussions about music from The Greatful Dead, The Residents, Devo, Pink Floyd, Rush, Dave Clark Five, The Beatles, The Byrds, the legendary beat poets like Burroughs and Ginsberg, the uncanny Tom Russell and anyone else you may care to add to such an illustrious list. Hilary Duff, in my own estimation, can be added to this group with the works she/they have eponymously achieved. They have earned their place with me on this trip. Unfortunately, to really delve into this music you have take the time out to hear it all out and write something akin to an academic graduate paper to get it all down pretty close, so I'll just leave my impressions here for what they are.
cincinnati_.urbn.
It's nice to think of Ginsberg and Russell and Burroughs when you listen to this music. It's got such an age range in its listeners that I like that can transcend these eras. I read Burroughs pretty early in my life and Burgess and pulp fiction and I was completely swept by this music. Her voice is a young womans voice obviously but its really how she works it and how well it works with the music. Its mesmerizing to hear these tracks. It's truly memorable.
damon_setzer@gomail.com
to me hilary duff tracks sound a bit inspired by the association. in some ways there is a parallel to their sound. i would also say the hollies. they make unmistakable music and wield their own sound which clearly hurdles the present day young acts going around. they're a kick in the pants to the modern music scene of today.

happy halloween to all. HILARY DUFF, one of the 5 best recordings in over 100 years of recorded sounds. you feel the final master mix happening as you listen. this album was recorded on a canvas of solid sound with an easel of determination and winging it.
d. frosta
it is actually that good and better than that. they winged a certain proportion of the tracks but it came out spectacular. the whole feel is captivating.

Hilary Duff is the total, complete ass-wupping old school rock experience. They make you inhale every track on it. She gives you a new breath, a new reason to breathe. It's electrifying beyond freshness. It's pure exhileration.
Uxtable.go
An album of pure brilliant intoxication, Hilary Duff is music that grows as it flies.
scooze F
its quite an unsupressed cd. a real shot in musics arm. the tracks I think are immortally cast brilliant opuses. if someone accuses that you don't hear this scale of music anymore wave this in their face. better yet, play it for them. :)
gregor.mercuri
There is a profundo beauty in this music that outshines any commentary. The tracks are each quite the marvelous beautiful recording workpieces. Live, the band is a cataclysmic stunner. Experience them if you can, by any means.

Hilary Duff is one of half a handful of authentic gratifying cds I've ever heard. It's beautiful, it's enriching and it's kickstomping at the same time.
shon_blop.n
its beautiful in its possessed girl vocals sort of way but it is also beautiful for its harmony in its own pitch way and very elegant in its way such as with this
desmond
They need to break for several months soon to relax. I sure would. Hil could go sightseeing in a limo on a estate or something without too much running around or try bondage games with her sister. These are very relaxing activities. I like this music for its inner conversationalist addresses.
kachatori_meltdown.
its the behemoth of rockpop. you have to be pretty nimble to reach the notes that hilary d is singing out. she can go pretty hi and sustain it and then change pitch and volume often in the same word. thats pretty flexible.
turbo-7.tv
yea, bondage games are always relaxing. hehehehe maybe visit a zoo and feed the sheep. hehehe ya kno, hiding underneath that smile I think she's a wanted girl. I love HD guitar work, too. And shauney is a brilliant percussionist.

I think it's a glorious cd! Did you know in their state of Florida the Americans disassociate their European stock minority by having the poor pricks put pink coloured lisense plates on their automobiles. I thought this was a funny story. hahaha
From Washborn Heights
No, theres no indication we would be doing this. European descents have the same freedoms as all Americans. Slavery and segregation were failures. Columbus was a failure. We fought that war and won. This isn't Canada. When that happens you'll find out, for sure. I'm wondering where you're posting from to post that. Hilary Duff is an album that does treat so many things and so broad a spectrum of politics, but it's also a ripping riff machine of raw tracks, and some of the best original tracks I've heard in my life, personally. To analyse but one facet of the big picture is not to comprehend the final masterpiece.
T.G.*52@email.com
Ripping, dazzling rock epic!!! Thoroughly entrancing and envigorating from start to finish, Hilary Duff!!!!!
natalie_roberts
well, that idea was meant to humiliate them to tone their partying or something, or however that story goes, because europeans hate pink. i really don't know if the Americans went for doing that. i don't put anything to those press reports and press analysis. this cd is the monster and thats what really counts to me. Hilary Duff Rocks!
Sandstone
Not merely a leap, this FLIES!! Not even a 10 can hold it down!!
Dalton Cuthbert
I don't think I put anything to anyone who says things like that until I find out about this myself. I wish people wouldn't flame off about things in or out of the press. I think this was just someones idea at most. Hilary Duff is the reason for my posting here. I am really knocked out by the album. Completely floored! Let's keep great music coming. Let it Shine!
barnacle_psychobilly
The cuts on this defy description. This one is purely an awesome and driving listen for anyones ears and mind to consume. I would have to say Hilary Duff and the gangs other works are some of the unique and spectacular treats in music history that take on their own personna under their own light.
T-Mex
The most amazing album thinkable and a followup to Metamorphosis worth every track! Amazing postproduction work, too, from Team Hil!
e@prizmatekcom
i think hil and the crew just keep bangin out the best imaginable stuff. you get lost in the quality of the work. you gotta think what the sessions and preprod must be like on these tracks. i don't think there's too much definite planning given the time they record these in and get them out. they're too much of a free gig band to do it like that if you've been to the shows. i think they basically got the ideas down then ran with them.
private.sawcuffs.net
It's not levels, it's the mastering. They get the levels perfect. Beyond perfect. Almost fluke-like except they're always getting them, but it's the same with the mastering. Hilary Duff has THE BEST MASTERING IN CD HISTORY! I fully can imagine how well this would make vinyl. I can hear that in my head. It's uncanny.
dave sinclair
A lot of engineers like the HD recordings. So do I. I think they're breathtaking. It's difficult as spit to equate a vinyl on cd yet alone sound better. Hilary Duff is always so much better. They've set the newest and highest standards in sound. They rock the world!
jon_pro_tooler
.....that's cause they didn't try to make it sound like a vinyl. it sounds of a level of quality and fidelity surpassing the great old vinyls, but it sounds digital. NOBODY makes cds sound that good. they do it. this is why a lot of vinyl lovers say Hilary tranfers so well to vinyl LP disk. the thinking in terms of results were the same as if they were working on a vinyl disk but the format and processes were different.
in.my.cozy.hammock
It sounds so good because they improvise much of how they make the recordings of their albums. They probably try out a lot of ideas until they get the one. They know when to spot the right one to use out of the available bunch. From songwriting to mastering cuts. They go for the right stuff from The Duff. :)
120v.donny
Personally, I was never wild about pro tools. Or mp3s. I always liked other ways. I'm turning on to using Quicktimes instead of mp3s. They're great for playback and on the fly editing and processing in so many ways I found restrictive with mp3s. Hilary Duff is a mastering masterpiece. I agree with you!!! This is also a killer groundbreaker disc, man. You've gotta love it. It's fucking genius.
Kaymax22
There are always perceived limitations in recording technology. Some artists can do with what they've got. My brother records everything into a New England Digital Synclavier. My teacher records into vintage Oberheim rack modules. I use a Roland hard-disk recorder with a Mac. It also depends how you use it. With what they did on this cd, they did the finest diligence to these tracks and the band. They didn't fuck it up. And Hilary's vocals are fabulous! They make the whole package complete as it is. I love her!
...trevor@privatemail
awesome. awesome cuts too. mindblowing numbers worth trying to cover.
lyrical_writerS
Someone on this loooong page writes a pretty accurate laymans description of Hilarys vocal technique but you will have to go find it yourself cause I'm lost trying to. She does things with her vocals that are unique such as with those little portamentos and glides and things in mid-lyric. NO other artist, her age or no, do things like that quite as well or as complementary with their music as she does. The writer points out that she TALKS LIKE THIS in real speech in real life, which she does. This is my personal highest rated cd of the past year.
Softdaddy
I still record some of my shit to audiocassette although I record direct to mac G4 laptop, too. It depends what you've got for many artists. Quicktime format files I think sound better than mp3s. Mp3s have availabilty but so does QT with the players and software out now. All depends on the circumstances. Hilary got cd mastering that beats the hell out of any mastering i've heard yet. They don't confuse mastering with levels because you can't think of them in the same context. The cds incredible. Beautiful! Its genius beyond expectations. Youre listening to something untimely raw.
ric.broadcaster2
I love The Beat of My Heart video. I like that look and the art direction. This album's the certifiable killer. You have to hand it to them for making things happen. They put out killer stuff. If Hilary sounded like any other lead singer we'ed be bored to death by now cause no one would notice. They keep their stuff interesting enough for us to take notice.
breston.nz.com
Hilary Duff is one of the most original and brilliant albums recorded in well over 30 to 40 years of rock music recording. Amongst other reasons, a dynamic potpourri of genuine and terrifying insight and soliloquy make this female lead vocal album the crisp masterpiece it throws directly in your face and mind.
@the ivy dulcimer
Part of me thinks the great band Babe Ruth; part of me thinks Garbage, who have a great cd out this year; part of me thinks The Byrds; part of me thinks Charlie Feathers. So where do I go with this? lol The tracks and all the music is incredible. Absolutely uplifting out of my seat. What more can I add?
Ardvark d77
cds dont share the dynamics that vinyl can offer but theyre getting there. quicktime i believe has a higher playback rate or something that just increases the fidelity. Hilary Duff got the stuff! 10 plus on the marks for HD - HD ....

"I want you to see I'm not here to dance." - from Beat of My Heart from the Most Wanted album. Who else but the Duff could pull a Duff at an awards show. I hope they get to shoot the dancers and eat them for Thanksgiving. I swear they were dancing like turkeys. lol. HD, seriously and imho, is the best thing since cds were touted as the best thing. Quicktimes may have their day in some way. Thats a groovy format. Yes, I love all forms of dance. lol
C. Midnight
I like the transparant set pieces in the BOMH vid. I think thats Brad Fernquists first nonconcert video with the band. I'm floored over by the album!! It's supergreat!! I had a feeling they'd have a little gag wrapped up for the show. It was a hoot. Or some form of expressionism, perhaps. rotfl Could be that, too. rotfl

I love this cd! Thank you, HD! Over the years I've seen a couple of transparent 6-string electrics patterned on the Strat. Don't own one, but it would be cool. Digital recording can do it now!!!

Transparent guitars of the past have been made by forming molds and pouring in plastics like lexan and lucite quite often in one piece body molds. I believe Lucite is quite heavy and is strong enough to be made hollow or honeycombed to decrease the weight of the instrument. Plexiglass and fibreglass have also been used for guitars and is popular with drums. The physics of the guitar change and may affect the acoustics and tuning of the instrument when it is played in a notable way in contrast to wood body guitars. You can sometimes find these kind of guitars for sale in used instrument stores or sold on the internet such as on ebay. I got the "non-dance number". It coincided with the song and video theme. I love all the numbers on this album. I can't get enough of The Duff!
snakehorn@crescentpeak
I know Lexan and plexiglass can be used effectively for guitars and other instruments. Ludwig has its famous fibreglass line of drum kits. Tama has its transparent percussion sets. Dragon had its line. It poses its own distinct set of properties to make instruments from these materials. Titanium and stainless steel instruments also come to mind as a flight from the norm. Premier has its steel kit. Polymer drumsticks have been around. You have to keep your ear about the tuning of these instruments particularly if you're setting out to build one on your own. The video is pretty cool. Its got a cool use of surface textures using the set materials they used. I think some of the transparent items might have been glass. Its a cool song. I don't try to compare groups. Theres almost a little Lovin' Spoonful in the sound to me. Hilary Duff is the great shining album. I was very turned on by the music when I heard it. Its exciting to hear great music from younger musicians. They're the kings of the Hil.
Gabby
Acrylic has been used for transparent guitars but dont know the strength of these things. I don't know what punishment acrylic can seriously take in guitar form. Those other materials can probably take a lot of punishment. If you tried smashing a titanium one piece guitar you'd put a hole in the stage floor. HILARY DUFF, YOU GOT THE STUFF! HILARY DUFF, the mother album of all time. They could probably get a lexan or titanium 6 string custom made.
knotdrive.dell
I still can't get over how good some guitarists sound playing a Telecaster over all other guitars. Theres a very Telecaster feel to HD music that I like. It's unto its own. Hilary Duff is the mother of the music!
keck_summers.@
I love all things Hilary D. They are burning sensational mothers. Huge! The rockingest album of the decade at least. I think Carvin made a transparent axe some years back. It could have been a clone but I seem to remember Carvin being connected to it in someways. Brad Fernquist might be playing one on the HD Most Wanted tour they're on now. Certain materials would make that kind of guitar very heavy for a performance. I don't know about the weight of acrylic but lexan would probably be alright and similar to wood. I would imagine lucite name materials being similar to plexiglas might be heavier than lexan.
major_dood
Hilary Duff is a guitarists roadshow. Ty, Brad, Kayle, Jay. a treasure chest, man. ever lifted a big block of acrylic it can be pretty heavy. lexan might be a good material for a solid body but it scratches easy, although probably no more than most woods. it depends what finish or protective coating you have on it. whos that girl?!!!

misc.priv.keys_tone99.org
Hilary Duff is the mother bomb. the albums sensational from my favorite band. this is the best album i've ever heard and on top of my top 5 list. an acrylic guitar wouldn't be as heavy as a plexiglass or fibreglass guitar i would think but i could be wrong. lexan would be a good material for a one piece solidbody. maybe with hollow cavities for strength and weight improvement. lexan is virtually scratch resistant and virtually unbreakable and seems to have good frequency transmission properties because it's used for windows. you'd have to throw a sharp brick at it to really scratch it. put a thin coating on it like they have on a camera lens, like sapphire glass. that'll protect it. the mic in the video looks like glass, plastic or maybe crystal. it wouldn't take much to make a clear working mic. lucite, i would think, would be just too heavy to want to carry around strapped to your neck. it would be nearly pointless to try, although some very heavy axes have been made in the past. a list of the heaviest axes ever made is probably out there somewhere.

Not just a Fly, but a SuperFly!
f. townes
i love this group, these tunes & this album!! epic!!! burning live group!!!!
@costa_mondo
if you scratch a material like lexan you can remove the scratches not much different from a cd when you scratch it. no big deal. some transparent guitars have been made in the past. i think gibson made one once. rickenbacker might have made one. the only material i wouldn't recommend is glass. it would be too heavy and shatter. hilary duff is the best cd i've heard in a stunning long time. they shatter all preconceptions of truly great music.
@.mojavetelescopic
Casting a guitar in a one piece titanium or titanium alloy solidbody wouldn't be that hard, you'd just have to get the metal/alloy and the cast made. It would be strong and the resonance would be different, not sure what or how, but it would be a good strong working guitar with a strong neck and it would be lightweight. There have been some mad guitars made in the past you're correct. More experimental and conceptual customs and show models. Transparent guitars could be done, too. I think Lexan would be very workable and very strong with good flexibility. Fiberglass might be too heavy but that's depending on the way the guitar was designed. Hilary Duff rules the desert dunes!!! 8P
grant_h1L@altavista.com
They are the great young live group, thats for sure. You have to love what they're trying for the musician scene and for their own music. This album, Hilary Duff, is way extreme. These are the solid best new tracks I've heard on a single cd literally ever. They literally blow kickass music excellence wide open. SHE'S a hot great voice that works for the music like no other could. Let them shine on.

rawgear.totw
I felt the most bone-chilling sensation when The Last Song starts playing. The acoustic guitar is the fucking coldest thing I've ever heard and yet it's such a fucking beautiful piece. The band keys into original sensations that I can't get enough of. I love all their guitar and fills. I'm looking forward to future stuff from THE DUFF.
ganda_*
For ama awards, barbara, yes i believe they have changed the wording slightly. Hil sounds like she sung slightly changed lyrics. I could hear too. She gave great stage romp!! And funny!!! Hilary Duff album has real knockdown kind of music in ways would listen in 1960s and 70s. Big rockpop spectacular that crests like big and burning thing.
dennis_p.@privatemail.com
It's a beautiful album undeniably but it is also a frightening masterpiece of music. That could possibly depend on how you wish to take it. But there's no denying that it has that effect on the listener. The rating page here needs a higher number for it.

I think this is the superfreak of all great albums works. They and their eponymous grandeur of a lead singer work this trip to the bone. I remember Keith Richards using a transparent axe for something once. It's just as good a material to use as anything except it's transparent. Lexan would have it's weight and durability advantages.

Hilary Duff is the all-time stuff! My all-time fave LP! I can't offhand think of any musical advantages of a clear Strat or, say, semiacoustic except they would be cool visual pieces which itself could be enough. ;)

I agree with the above. Hilary Duff might very possibly be the finest rock album ever recorded. It outstrips them all and I thought I'd heard it all. Fly to The Last Song. It moves like a book or a storyboard. I find the songs are vignettes of a sort explaining cuts from existence. It's very much like a beat poetry epic. Happy Birthday to Alan Freed and to Keith Richards. I'm not sure but I believe it's also Paul Butterfields birthday sometime around now. Anyway, Happy Birthday to everyone. :^D

We will always remember Alan Freed. Some good posts here. Things he did is why we all do the things we do now. Hilary Duff cut the most gutsy and tantalizing LP probably ever done. I think its destined for all our times.
highway_max@msn.com
If there was ever a freak album of our times this is the ticket. You dont have to look any place else, and this monster is primed with every track. If Alan Freed were around today he'd play this right through till The Last Song and he'd do it again and for all the same reasons everyone else would. It's the masterpiece. Hilary Duff is the Monsterpiece of Rock and Roll, baby.

Hilary Duff is the definite stuff. It's definitive rock, man. I'm blown for the loop by it. The experience is overwhelming stuff for a cd. Yep, all those birthdays. Alan Freed, Keith Richards and Paul. Enuff happy to go around. lolol 8D - Hilary Duff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hilary Duff is an album that smart and clever people do by grand mistake only at the very best of times, except they do it as a norm for them. Gemcutters don't get it this good. You hear the thing turning like a lathe. This made my music spectaculars top list at Number One. The speaker cabinets in the BOMH video look like glass or plexiglass. The mic could be plastic, glass or crysytal. It could be either one. Its debatable which material would work better. Probably all three would be good, but real glass and crystal could shatter if you drop it. Glass sex toys are available, however, that resemble these in fabrication so it's not an impossibility. Hilary Duff gets the total thumbs up from me.

According to some of the Holywood shit there are now 3 dancers in the band. Guess we'll have to wait to check it out. The cd is definitely marvelous. Hot fuss.
Overminder R.
The dancers are apparently only for "overseas consumption", as they say, according to the reports. lolol ;) Could prove an interesting mix. They give the best shows I've seen from any young band. The cd is naturally quite an awesome thriller. Hil is the bomb and her voice is terrific. She carries the tracks on the fly.
raw_hust...@...
I'll have to say it's the grand album. This is a winning killing band. Hil, Haylie and Midnight,... and now with Kstuff and The Dead Executives write definitive music. It opens doors of the mind. They have Hilary splitting time between the band and the camera projects and fan promo things. Being that she's emminently more well-known for the music has to bring in some career balances. The new dancer idea sounds like another thing they're trying out. Hope they bring Sibucao and Ty back soon enough. They was definitely all killer together!!!! The band changes like seasonal mood swings when they do this when you think of it (ha) but from this great stuff emerges. They stay very tight but very flexible which has proved obviously to their advantage.

This is the one album I would consider the most definitive and listenable rockpop disc I've heard in at least a good 40 years. It somehow incorporates this pulling along effect that you feel when you start getting into it. Its the infinite story from one end to the other. It's not always for the queasy I wouldn't consider but its the good stuff. I think there are probably things we could get out of this for ages to come. Came the coolest givings and the rocking show to all involved with it.

Music seeding longitudinal infestation of the musical sublime. Music for musics sake. Purity of the nonpure. The death and rebirth of wholeness foretold with music? Darkness befells the monolith befells the light? :)

infinite muscle meets infinite electricity. flow like a dynamo, hilary duff. gave this a ten mark. it explains itself very well.
C. Robert Delberte
I find that its closer in line to being mathematics meets metaphysics projecting progressive rockabilly garage music, hard progressive electric poprock expressions, chronicling of philosphic osmosis of terrestrial life and ones significant place and consequence interpretations as such, described in the cosmic environment to which we are indebted. I think theres probably other meanings but that seems like one to me. The tracks are striking and one could easily describe as musically psychokinetic, perhaps at moments descriptively tortuous, yet on a gratifying channelling approach of first hand observation as if to be experienced by or as a greater hand. This is reflected rather clearly, and I would feel deliberately, by the track "Someone Watching Over Me" and several other moments during the recording. Hilary Duff is a contemporary musical work that would specifically require further study for a content analysis.

I found it can be described as a nutty album potentially but you know your listening to something great. Like a thriller you can't put down, but very uniquely sublime.
coolayd central
Undeniably the most spellbinding, swish and momentous rock album ever recorded. It deserves the praise as devulging as it can get.
gorgogirl.networks
I think it's a towering work. It's got that sort of nonexplained dimension, or multidimensional aspect, to it you could say, but u know, so do most great literary works if not all. I can't think of 1 that doesn't. It's a trip.

Unbelievably wicked awesome cd. Monster cd.

a cd savory with every bite. just what the doctor ordered. its got such sumptous track presence.
j.j. beatrunner
I find this thing is so supremely elegant for something that is so technically spaced out when you really realize it. Its the grand odyssey of rockpop music and the exceptionally complete work of expression that's become the favorite album that its become. It can be so beautifully overwhelming and so seductively psychedelic it must rely solely on experience. In the end listening to it and soaking it in is the only way. I retrospect, you must hear it to hear it.
Damon_Garner@hilsapoppin
"you must really hear it to really hear it." - that pretty much encapsulates what I was gonna say. Saves me a soliloquy. lol ;)
E Kayze
The richest and most poignant epitome of the way it really is made in the best musical scale imaginable. It does its work. Its not nice to fool Mother Nature, unless Mother Nature does the fooling. The one best album I've truly ever heard. It earns its place at the top.
R. Adaire
Easily, Hilary Duff is the grandest cluster of pompous pop-rock allegory ever assembled on a singe LP. You can't put it down or pack it away. It will utterly blow you back into the life.
d._loading_zone@community.mail
Awesome epic LP and I should point out a real stunner among albums AND another HD masterpiece. My easy favorite CD!! Awesome stuff from the Duff! The transparent guitar used in the BOMH video might have been a vintage designed by Dan Anderson. Ampeg made some Dan Anderson transparent guitars about the early 70s. Keith Richards played one on tour with The Rolling Stones at about that time. I believe they might have been Lucite from things I've read. I've only seen 1 for real some time ago. They are purportedly very heavy but I can't see how they could be any heavier than glass. Glass would actually be dangerous if they were to break you'd think. It'd make an interesting effect for a video but I would never try it for real. Maybe a transparent guitar that could bounce. haha I'd like one for live shows. You could probably make one out of one of those superball plastics like polybutylene or whatsitsname. My chemistry is probably aweful. Bounce it around the stage. lolol
theclockstopwatchers
Polybutadiene and an industrial compound called Zectron. Guitars from this would be crazy, man. We wouldn't stop bouncing them. Hilary Duff is THE best lp I thought I'd never hear anyone make ever, man. There are no compromises with these kids. That's good! They're the supersensational crazy troupe. Gotta give them the hand.
donno.vci.net
freaky great cd!!!! hugely effectual shit!!!
geoff zero G
hilary duff is a strange and monumental cd. covering these tracks is a good deal if you can. i'm a baritone and this music stands the test. i like the newer guys kurt and brad fernquist.
host crew
The album itself is an interesting mix of audio ranges and feelings. It's really a sequel to the Metamorphosis album conceptually at least. I wouldn't exactly call it mainstream obviously due to the music itself but the entire album is at least on par with anything thats ever been called mainstream. Every track is effectively a masterpiece onto itself whether you consider it an album or a collection of single tracks.
barbaratronic
Uplifting. Seductive. Involving. Disturbing. Really disturbing if you want. Spankingly cunning to overflowing. This needs to be played in a special concert with full orchestra accompaniment. That would be cool.
Raouls_writeup_v.3
All right. This is my breakdown. The cd is marvelous and the band is a stinging killer young band that has kickass panache. I haven't liked a young group this much since like New Order/Joy Division, at least! Been some time! The lead singer, Hilary Duff, is a knockout superchick with a killer inimitable voice that grows on you like a vine. Hilary is also an actress in the sequel to the Cheaper By The Dozen movie. The guitarist Brad Fernquist is the new guy. Ty Stevens is a great crass guitar whiz and to know that they never leave the group and will be back is a gratifying thought. They've done some soundtrack work particularly noted for Hils own movies. Boy, movies are getting a critical beating from the public lately. Big unwanted remakes, dreadful storytelling, unfunny comedies, unreal histories, stupid romances and really aweful horrors. They are however doing well with spy thrillers, big spy comedies, groovy crime capers, generally good comic book adaptations, big childrens epics, big fun animated epics, smart teen character comedies which is a nice switch, intimate romantic comedies, and, for whatever reason, more really aweful hard-to-watch horrors which I can't stand or understand. This horror kick reminds me of the old Hammer films which I thought were dreadfully grim to watch. I don't like them. It took me 3 tries to write this paragraph so thats it. This album gets a full 10 mark from ol' me.
D'sRant
Hilary Duff is the best thing I may have heard from any album, period. The way it works is too much to try bother to describe. You'll have to listen to it to know. Bouncing guitars could be the coolest thing I've ever heard of. That would cause total pandemonium in a live concert. Movies are finding it hard to compete with the other things out there now, like this computer or music or my player or real life. Or the internet. People are learning how to play musical instruments again because the tech is so there now. DVDs and home theatre and home video is everywhere. I own a cd and mp3 player. I own an ipod. I'm listening to broadcast radio again. I play computer games on the night I went to the movies 20 years ago. I own and use a camcorder. Stage plays are bigger than ever. Live music concerts are way bigger than ever. Dance clubs. Sports bars. People are buying entire old tv shows in dvd boxed sets. All this takes up the viewers time. What can you do. Them the breaks. Thats my rant.
peter built
Hilary Duff, what is this stuff you cast before us. This is Everley bros meets Heart and then some. Big some! I can't get over how great this thing turned out. It's my favorite milestone. Rise and Shine. Cry and cry again. Hilary Duff Is That Girl making The Getaway. I find martial arts movies, spy thrillers, organized crime thrillers and non-action sci-fi always, always sells if they're done well enough. They always find an audience if given a big enough release. If you put them together they could do ok. Like adventure secretary girl, yknow.
john_spoza
The tracks on this I don't even know where to begin with them. I immediately thought this was more appealing to me than Revolver and Sounds of Silence. For an album of unified spirit and a total vision to come about like this is a reflection on the parts of the summation. The compendium endurance is an experience we cannot experience but by experience alone. Speaking of movies, there was a movie Collateral with Tom Cruise. The song Dangerous To Know when I heard it could have been the end title track to Collateral. That would have been perfect. If you've got a Mac you could mix it in as your own soundtrack.
therollingmountainsreview
We all live in Hilary Duffs submarine!! The Scroll of Rock and Roll has been spoken aloud!! Long live the Great Monsterpiece!! This is the hottest best album I've heard since the CD was introduced over the LP. This album shows you its been quite a gap since we really made albums, huh. If you readers want to read some real movie flaming there are sites out there that I swear have the wickedest movie reader criticisms I've ever read. I don't go there. Collateral was a very cool movie. Well made, too. There is some question whether the Tom Cruise character really dies in the end. That could be open ended. Meaning sequel or... tv series? ;)
joy
A love this album to the core. It freaked me out. Its my routine listening. A Collateral movie series could have a different hitperson scenario with every movie. A different acting person could play the character every time in a different storyline.
.lickasurgeon
Girls Just Wanna Have Gun. Rippin Album! Monster!
the_high_connection.
I thought Weird could have worked, too. And for the Bourne movies. The whole album could be applied to anything. Bands got the flaming balls down below. Collateral was the finest performance I've ever seen from Tom Cruise. Man's got chop. Man can act for the camera. That and Eyes Wide Shut. I'd love to hear HD compose for movies they aren't seen in. I always thought The Who should have scored something.

Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - February 2, 2006 - A concert even Excedrin won't cure. Roll Over, Beethoven. Roll Over, Beatles. Roll On, Hilary Duff. The greatest band in the world.
j._kanata
you hear the roots of a great and good thing....... till next time, it's a date.......
weed_id
Hilary Duff is my album of the generation. When you thought music wasn't any good anymore, along comes a group that decided to change that situation for the better. I believe Ottawa, Canada was the final date on the Most Wanted Tour. I can bet it went screamingly. lol I find one thing about certain Canadian dates is the massive percentage of teen girls, and some pre-teens getting in, to everyone else. Sure teen girls are huge with HD, but the ratio with the dates in Canada are massive and certain kind of media really plays on this. I've been to HD dates around the world and there are only 2 markets where young girls with parents have such a massive percentage and Canada is one of them. In America it's girls everywhere, too, but it's pretty much even with males and teens/middle agers, etc. Age and sex isn't the factor. It's this way in S America, europe and S.E. asia, too, not just America. It's very reminiscent of the 50s and 60s, except people of all ages generally know what they expect from the music.
rolandXCVP
that cause certain canadian markets are too fucked up by so-called classic rock and the mainstream media-pop bullshit. they think rock started with judas priest and doodlebops. its fucking garbage. people want real old school rock or theyll find something else to do like fucking silence. they dont want shit. they want music and duff gives them the music.
e.b.tristan
Theres enormous gratification to HD music, like this cd, in the big picture of it. Its incredibly percolating to the inner growth cycle. It might not be certain stylists mainstream approach, buts its become the fixation for obvious reasons.
cool.summers
The fixation of a generation. Cry cause it all begins again.
steel_mentallo
I find a lot of broadcast radio is hard pressed to put things down into neat little marketing pidgeonholes. Hilary Duff can't be held in that pen for a variety of reasons. The albums a winner on all fronts no matter how you interpret it.

Fabulous!!
.quench
Ya, but a fucking awesome concert no matter how you say it. The last of the most wanted tour. Till next time. This album marks the number of the Hil.

Theyre a stinking riveting band. Give em what they are. If they're the present then the future looks pissing bright. This cd was inspired from both ends. ;)

My fave album from the digital age of audio recording. This is becoming my opinion on it. It's fresh and a killer delight from the age.
clear.vocal
You wouldn't be reasonable to wait for an album like this, some folks might tell you. They just went out and winged it more or less. That approach seems to still work for the best of us. Any of you globetrotting Hil fans will want to know that Hilary Duff will be at the San Antonio Rodeo Monday night, 6/2/06, for another show! Time to use those air miles!
tidehoppervenice
Hilary Duff is a dynamic and profound stroke of musical wit and a whole lotta lovin goin on in all the right places. I would easily place this on historys top album list.
federico.net
An outstanding and bewildering Hilary Duff epic. This is the foundations of American music. It can be felt rippling through this cd like tidal waves.

What HD audiences expect from HD music and shows is a certain share of the unexpected, as with the cds. As with the Ottawa, Canada show. Like a truck in the head but you love it and it can even prove to be the most uplifting experience you may ever have had.
Thingrax
Ive never experienced the highs from a live show the way I got it from Hilary Duff. Its something thats been alien to the past few generations generation. Louder and harder than metal but more envigorating and touching than sixties rock and roll. Theres a brilliant balance that dignifies its nature. This album is as hard as rock gets.
oyster_cultist
Unbelievable concert!!!!!! Concert and this cd is unfathomable!!!!!!!
FREEWAYFOLD8BALL
TOTALLY CLEAR AND UNOBSTRUCTED FLYING INTO THE NEXT PLANE. THE REAL AUTHENTIC JUMP OF THE SOUL. TOTAL PURE ROCK ELEVATION. HILARY DUFF IS THE TOTALLY CONSUMATE EPIC YOU CAN ONLY HEAR TO GET IT IN YOU.

I freak at this album. I intensly love it. The inner peace and desertion in it is unparalleled in music listening. I favour this groups lush and unshakable passion. Hilary Duff, the lead singer, ignites lust within me beyond words. The guitars burn and blister my flesh and soul.

You're completely correct. Hilary Duff is the definitive consummate work of modern pop music achievement. It would have taken most others over 20 years of wondering and speculation to get this cd down to this final master and we still wouldn't have done it like this. Hilary Duff is a beautiful machine of an album. It is a spectacular work of natural beauty and wonder.

Hilary Duff is the finest, the greatest original album to come out of the present rock generation for all musical history. No matter how you view this album and parallel it with cosmic occurances or events of the day, it truly fascinates the listener from track 1 thru 17. Also, this monster just plain ROCKS!!! 8)

puffinstuff
what the americans are doing is a facto sanctoconnectum within the peking basin using a "monsieur fantastico" as a prime deliberate. you are not to think more of it as such. "monsieur f" was a spinster implemented into the socal basin for primus dictatorum conceivership. this can be thought of nothing more than a surface tolerance. the district gave consideration to the inverted property as a brahe plan, such things considered as primary hindrance. nevertheless, the perfunctory is quorum.

superbly well written, crafted, clever album. its different type of stuff. hils voice has unmistakable character and a sense of belonging to the tracks. she sets those vocals loose. real synth depth to the tracks. loren pumps those korgs. the guitars are smartly well tempered and brilliantly unobstructed. its a real pleaser album in its own kind of dimensional way. i want the sheet music to this.
Get_Funkadelik
Hilary Duff. A stunningly beautiful and distinctive work of postmodern music. Its a trailblazer of the musical kind. Give Hilary Duff a 10.

it does read like a pulp fiction novel, too, i can actually see that. hilary duff is about metamorphosis of human struggle and of universal continuum parallels. its amazing stuff from the very coolest band on earth and off it. its the following lp of hds metamorphosis lp album. i rated it ten.
The.Big.Lory.Fly
The Duffs superhot album. They kick it in a big rockshow crackle bigger than a thunderstorm. Hils vocals are an outstanding show.
sstacy2@hotmail.com
I understood the life growth sociology interpretation of this cd, and I understood the espionage thriller interpretation to a point, from the my beginners viewpoint, but I don't understand the celestial "big bang" interpretation yet. My music teacher pointed this out to me but I don't get what he said yet. He says this is the best pop album since before the 70s. I think its the best I've heard in my lifetime.

There are at least 4 0r 5 good solid ways to interpret this cd, as with all the Duff stuff. They make superbly well made cds. Really well done. Transmagical shit of the superscientific, Hilary Duff. YOU make the music.

a.maz.on.5@yahoo
To comprehend the cosmic stuff I find a lot of listeners go back to the previous album to the first track of Metamorphosis, So Yesterday, and listen through MM before they listen through HD. SO YESTERDAY. It's genius. Its like they mapped the 2 albums out to the tee. Hilary Duff is at least 5 steps ahead of the listeners. Hilary Duff is super duper, baby.

the groovy cats. the guitarists in this band can literally rock the world. they're unbelievable. brad and all.
rclad@momail.net
The guitarists in Hilary Duff are fucking immense. Hil is a fucking brilliant lunatic wizard lead. I can't stand how fucking incredible this band is. Its like people have forgotten how to move a crowd like this. Its like a fucking cathedral but its like a travelling bazarr. A fucking travelling circus. That is no shit. That is truly what Hilary Duff is. A cathedral, a bazar and a circus. And a laboratory all in one.
deft.leppard@showtime
A cathedral, a bazar, a circus and a laboratory all in one. Thats an astute observation. Thats what they were trying to do in the first place was that symbiosis. Hugely cool. Cosmic.
Transwich Sandwich
Hilary Duff, and all the band, is dynamic and superb and one of the smart ones in all the biz. You cannot do it better than Hilary Duff does it by being herself. Its nature. The album is a true epic monologue in rock and roll formation and transformation. They try and they do.
the_poof_master@altavista.com
Hilary Duff purposely gave So Yesterday a hard electric dance-pop blended sound of the day to start the Metamorphosis album. They intended, at least in theory, for Metamorphosis to be the transitional sound album to what they had in mind for the Hilary Duff album. It was meant to be a breaking point. It worked if you ask me. The best possible album from the Hil came out in Hilary Duff. Truly stellar numbers come off this album. The production dynamics by themselves are beautiful. It may be an experiment but they pulled it all off gloriously.
eggsalad.netserver
bouncing guitars would be very very groovy man. that would be weird stuff. hilary duff is the best album ive heard since they started making cds. thats very very groovy man. thats weird.
magic_missile_mammy
it basically begins with the thunderclap chord in the opening bar of "so yesterday" on metamorphosis bringing about the change through female social microcosm to the panuniversal cosmic, to the human interactions of politics, down to the basic components of life existence. its a play by play idea, but they give it more substance. yes there is more than this but thats the general consensus. it flies musically and literally in a remarkably pronounced way. hilary duff is an historic feast of rock and roll treasures.
gnu.dawn.ryder
Hilary Duff is a massive and wildly eccentric epic poprock work that builds itself at a fevered pitch in such a pronounced scale of integrity its difficult to nail it all down to definitions. Just listen to the sound.

I would use it for internet trolls. Nobody likes them. Nobody cares. Whatever their sources or whoever they really are is all moot, dood. Hilary Duff is what you should be listening to. Hot album from a smoking gun of a band. The cuts are deep. Cheers. :D
Vapid B
I like the synth B3 pads Loren plays. He gives Hilary Duff synths a Steppenwolf/Rainbow feel. HD are the tightest group with superexplosive superlush sound.
muddy_carl
The organ pads Loren uses are different than those B3 pads essentially. They're like a loud deep growling space organ pad thats been routed through an overdriven leslie stack and then remiked in a blanket and PA'd. You hear it in their live gigs. He's good at that kind of digital/analog mix sound. This albums a stomping killer, man. You can't do better than the Duff.
url@tumblers.com
I don't know if he uses rotary speakers or simulation. That growly spacey power-organs become part of the Hilary Duff sound. Hilary Duff made the album I was dreaming about when I was a teenager except I don't know if it could really have been done in a similar way back then with comparable results.

cold_orange
i believe he uses the korg extreme valve model. thats one of the best new keyboards around. he might use a leslie model simulator. i cant begin to describe how this album has affected what i'm putting into my own music in my home studio. theres a mysterious sumptuousness about this album thats very hard to describe in literal terms. aside from elevating even when it should be scaring you about the stuff theyre singing about.
7ingeniso6
To describe what describes itself so well is daunting in itself if not an undescribable thing.
Erwin_Healey
A most envigorating and sonically brilliant original if anyones heard one. If they stole from someone I sure can't hear where and I've been listening. This is very original vibe. Theres nothing close out there. The band has a very unique audio style and effect.
Bikini Machine
Michael Chaves and Jason Hook are fantastic crafty axe players. They're smoking technicians. It's hard to put HD in a section because they cover a varied spred of musical resources. Hilary D is the prettiest burning burning thing.
the_typographer
This albums the sizzler. More than a little satisfying. Makes you think life ain't so unusual from that elevated floating perspective of the cosmic storytelling mind. Lead Hil is on the US edition cover of Cosmopolitain magazine. She also apparently had 4 teeth pulled recently, so she will destroy you. ps- Maybe they'll cut a track with Ray Davies. That would be more added cool to the cosmic fireplace. Welcome to Monsterpiece Theatre. No shit. This is a high 12.
incident@exeter
this band finds young crafty cats for its coffers. elevation is a word to describe its massive rising wave.

Superspectacular cd from Hilary Duff and the genuine drive of its own making. It would be incongruent to call this anything less than an alluring and magical musical epic. A little note to any readers of this long page that singer/songwriter/sister Haylie Duff, lead singer Hilarys sister, turned 21 on this day of 02/03/2006 so Happy Birthday, Haylie! You are one of the minds of our time! :)

Brilliant! True genius! A death-defying mindwarp of brilliant cuts this is! Beautiful and relentlessly driven!
Dex
She certainly is.
Frankie Cook
Man, they really shine, too. I'll have to wait for their next tour to see them again. Give the album a 10 mark. :)
nodamage
I find the tracks captivate me but make me feel alright like I listened to a one of a kind effort. Its amazing that they were able to get so much out of 17 tracks on a cd.
prancR.ybone
Luv it!!
the.intermittent.plummer
Wicked band. This is a really cool effect album with depth. Can't wait to see them again on a stage. One of the fucking extraordinary bands in or out of a studio almost without effort. A fucking tight machine.
mozilla_fox
Happy Birthday to Haylie Duff. :) Hilary Duff is the experience to end all. This HD bomb is right on target and all stations are open for take-off.
j.phaselarne
I think the cosmic relations stuff is pretty apparent with the growth cycle of the human form being so symbolically metaphased with the universal constants themes. This works out. Man, I will say the album is one dynamite epic. It's a great polylithic thinking album disguised as a great listening experience. The project alone was a towering piece of work. A genuine monsterpiece if there was ever one.
Vente_Gorgonzola
It flies the skies HD style. Whatta trip!!!
brett
all the guitars and hooks and fills on this are fucking outstanding. they're authentic killer originals for sure. to have to learn them all will be my guitar activity for months. 8)
morgan rues
This is a phenomenal album. It's sort of an exercise when you put it into that level of perspective. I like it. Musically its a grand achievement. Screw contemporary popular music hurdles when this is the grand design. This clears up the mess with a fell flying swoop.
subwert fly
you can actually hear this giant fucker writing itself as youre listening. the vocals bring this home. the drumming is fantastic. thats the drumming i always like.
the unblinded ear
Hilay Duffs giant bewildering seminal masterpiece of rock and roll and music in general. A musical convention of the unconventional distractions of reality and bliss, they did the undoable and reached the attainable. For this, it becomes a schematic for the units of time.
DEFY.GRIPS
ROLLERCOASTER. THE TRUE ROLLERCOASTER OF ROCK.
hank cobourne
This flies and soars on dynamic scales and levels. They should really make a theatrical movie version. That would be the right move.

DUFFJAM TRIPLE-X
SUPERFLY! AND THE ROLLERCOASTER RIDE OF LIFE!
B. Hemiphonic
This is the best album I have heard in my life. Hilary Duff redefines and reintroduces real audible syncronicity, envelope, arousement and pinnacle into the foundation of solid rock music with no compromises, excuses or apologies, and they do it in a flare equalled by no other group. The real American idol sings the minds of all.
Crispin_Groundswell@ho_mail.***
Mother Nature takes the wheel. The holey motherfuckers better get out of the way. Hilary Duff is album of the year, every year.
K. S.
This cd has profound scope in a colossal and cinematic euphoria. I think a theatrical video would be a right idea. Someone like George Clooney or Oliver Stone as director? Brian DePalma? Robert Altman? Someone very capable. They should do it together with Metamorphosis as preface and Most Wanted as epilogue. This is a truly grand musical work.
z_frisque
There's quite a prolific mechanism to this groups music. This very punctual symphony speaking from within the within of itself to others and itself. A dose of reasons to listen. To vibe. To acquiesce. To obfuscate. To enlighten. To charm. To abscomfiate. To subdue. To subject. To blow-out. It's an interesting subject matter and mix. It is not entirely easy listening but entirely pleasuring, or better, engrossingly satisfying.
cd.musikaL5.bonepump
crazy, weird, entrancing poprock fusionist cd. its weirdly symphonic. i think its godamed brilliant. its very beautiful shit, 2, if you listen. even when you think it shouldn't be its so choral and harmonic. its a beautiful work of art. a real beautiful musical artpiece.
p.handlote....
it's hard because it's an album of ideas.... and of application :)
cafe.ovu.latte@hotmail.com
This needs to be played by philharmonic. There are no two ways about this. It's too rich and rewarding to not. It's too sublime.
hiwatt66
It's very flight-minded. It's just incredible. It puts you there in the cosmic DNA. The cosmic helix.
creature_manifester
I don't know exactly how to comment on an album that on a whole defies classical description to me. It's a real work of musical impressioinist art. If they were doing a movie they'd get someone like Cronenberg or Burton. They understand this space beauty parable shit and stuff like that. At least from a local group perspective.
ghostkey
The best album ever made.
research_lab_7
If there is the brightest band in the world of contemporary world music and musical thought this is the band. This commands your musical thoughtwaves and piques your musical nerve endings to the raw conclusions. Its an awesome listen.
Tracer
Just the compounded work by itself. An utter masterpiece. Every track is an unequitable listening experience by a live band that will utterly blow you the motherfuck out of the stadium. The amazing thing is they're even better than this.
hot_fuzz_jizzler
Blondie meets Buddy Holly in a very, very big way and still the amazing sound thay make. I'm amazed and in love with them.
gino_offical
They got the juice!! The hottest hot juice in the world!!! The hot hot juice!!!! The vocals, drums and the bass are spinning!!!!!
interforz
unbelievably all consuming raging behemoth cd. a common rage. it burns like a calculating killer. the real monster album of all time. the group mesmerises oblivious souls.
A. Duff
Americans don't want an asian to make a movie of this. Why would we want that? The only thing you have to think about is getting out of Canada while you can. That's your only future and the only future you've got. Get off the internet and go flame somewhere else. Go back to fucking with yourselves for a change. It's your kind of thing.
Element92
The distinct and awesome breathtaker masterpiece. The coolest and the real Rock.
i-gothgams
Another immaculate brainstorm from this hard-to-describe atomic pop band with its teen blond dynamo lead singer namesake and progressive fusionist dynamite drummer. Like with the bands previous releases one should really hear out the entire album as is before making comments. It's highly worthy of the rating board 10.
kid kool
Musics superhighway of transdreamy synchronistic introspection shoved in your face and it plays as if its the genetic code of rock and roll itself. I love it. It makes me press repeat and loop more than I've done with any album.
Zixon
epic modern treasure chest. the bible of the mind. sonic fabulous thinking.
p. davogrus
Like a thunderbolt I was hit by the best cd I've heard in my life. A monumental effort. Insane, logical, labarynthine. Its a witty, compassionate, cruel and powerful epic that should be heard. That's that.
man_in_a_suitcase
Hilary Duff is the most stunningly beautiful, elegent and powerful beast. The eloquence in the music is boundless and makes for a truly cosmic musical experience. The band is blowing more minds with every beat. Well, I can't say who that person was or what the reference is to, either. I have no experience with trolls or flamers, either.
The Oozing Clap
A monster piece of fine, sympho-psychedelic orchestrations and impeccable groovy taste. The outrageous is never far behind in the getaway.
cliffton_w.
Progressive swingers play electric power rockpop in neo-50s roadhouse style with encrypted universal tale of beginnings of all things and manifestation of parapolitical destiny in the age of the digital groove. A uniquely absorbing work and a smoking ride like none other before it or since.
renee_b
dangerously supercool band with dangerously superhot lead singer. the finest cd.
dept h lexicon
the duff rocks the world. we want her!
sermon_axe
Hilary Duffs latest paradigm shift of Rock and Roll and post 70/80s New Wave electric art-pop music proving again the best stuff isn't always the stuff you expect from the mainstream but the stuff you should expect from the era at hand. Unbelievable when you play it loud.
towerofblood@bt*
The band with the best lead singer of her age since Roger Daltrey in my opinion. Hilary Duff have the power and they have the touch combined immortal.
trowler
i think its an unparalleled artwork to say the least. there is the possibility they might have used subliminal suggestions in the recordings as they did on metamorphosis at least in the musical sense of setting the mood of the album tracks by having musical atmosphere just beyond the audible range of the listeners. this is something Loren could do pretty well with his setup and arrangements from the keyboards. with what went into the album and the way they do the concerts they never ran out of performing or recording methods to make the tracks as effective as they did on the album. the effectiveness of the tracks is literally off the scale. they are effectiveness bliss.
Silver Shoes
Hilary Duff wins my cool album vote of the century. There's possible use of beyond range audio on this. The inaudible elements can be Loren Gs synthwork since he uses Korg Extremes and other gear that can do that. Any synth and sampler can make the very hi and lo ends without being heard in the generally audible registers. The bug and swarming effects on Metamorphosis and the lightingstorm on So Yesterday both from the Metamorphosis album had elements that don't really register because they're behind the music but they are there. Whatever they may have used on Hilary Duff it might have been subliminal reverb or chorus effects. Theres a site that detected a car engine and exhaust and tire burn on The Getaway and even a car crash with Hilarys vocals on Mr James Dean which would be really eerie. I haven't heard them although I have my ideas. This could also be what some folks perceive they are hearing being the subject matter. They did such an amazing job on the album it might all be musical moot point.
T.HardWicke
Hilary Duff is the definitive stuff. This is as good an album that could have been imagined. She started about the same age as Roger Daltrey. Few really start in their teens for a permanent gig. Theres more stuff in the Hilary Duff mix than well probably know. I think the subliminal stuff is cool but that crash in MJD? I'll try to listen for that. That would be very creepy meaning it sounds like something they might do.
cvet
theyre a good band
base.clef
There is what could sound like a sub 5db wash of rain noise patch, like Moog rain, over Come Clean and a beer guggle effect in Party Up both from Metamorphosis. Loren could do any of this with the gear he uses. It might also just be the effect of the music itself. If there's a crash effect on MJD then its very out of range or probably morphed with the more audible tracks. This is an album that'll keep listeners asking questions for years. It's technically very inventive for using all the latest methods for live recordings.
7y6bennig@msn.com
one of the great benefits about hd is the analogue and analogue modeling they use for rock and pop. analogue is back in a big way in rock. i think they use modular soft synth for much of the tracks.
pennaton
an insurmountable mushroom cloud of rock!
from cripostan
maybe softsynth. LG uses a korg extreme for much of it including i think as a controller. hes been using various workstations a lot recently. hes a terrific organist and electric pianist. hilary duff got it smoked. its got the best tracks of any pop album for decades. ever. its legendary. its the monsterpiece.
1 Plecebo Hill
I think I've seen him use a Yamaha workstation but I'm unsure of the model. I really dig the orchestration he puts to the music. Hes a symphony within the band as are they all. They're dynamos. The album is an artistic goldmine. A legend. One extreme excellent epic.
Quesnel
Ingenious, rather boisterous elaborate epic. I love this mindblower. It's a stunning killer.
ranger_bruce
Hilary Duff rocks my world and my iPod! It's a boy for Donald and Melania! We all stick with you guys!
talk.to.me.around.net
We recently lost Gordon Parks, Oleg Cassini, Joseph Bova and Dana Reeves, but we've gained a new baby Trump and a great album from a great band of benchmarkers. That's a Metamorphosis in action right there. I give Hilary Duff a 10.
zabriskie cove
felicitations to all them. man, that kids gonna get a lot of airplay. he was just born. give him a little room. 8D Hilary Duff is extraordinary live, man. the trippy sensation. the totally trippin cd.

a lifeforce. a lifelong breathtaking triumph of music and musical aptitude.

Congats to Mandy on a great cd!!! Congrats to Donald and Melania and the little fella! RIP to Gordon, Oleg, Joseph and Dana Reeve. We all miss them already. Dana and I worked the same circles. We'll miss them.
roaming_zee
Is that for a Mandy Moore page by any chance? This is a Hilary Duff page. You're lost. Go to the artists index page. Is this for the Coverage album? It's under Mandy Moore. Don't get screwed up. That album rocks, btw, but its under the Ms. Now I forgot what I was going to write. I love this album, Hilary Duff.
VIP.disk
I think its such an amazing album. Honey, Loren was Mandys keyboardist on several gigs but you should know this is a music site and you probably linked to here from someplace else. You have to go look Mandy up in the artists directory to post a comment. I'm happy for and sorry for all those people, too. Now go listen to Hilary Duff and blow your mind. You'll thank us for letting you know.
.my_brillo_pad
its probably a loren link to this comment page someone posted somewhere on the net and hes played sessions with mandy moore. the mods'll find it. they're real rockers. hahahaha lorens the coolest guy. hils a killer vocalist. we need that voice. i can't imagine any other. and shauney! this beat goes on, shauney baby!
wallfly
mandy moore's a supercool chick who can rock extremely solid very old school. her and loren g have worked together so thats pretty solidly supercool. hilary duff is the extremely solidly supercoolest cd. i love it. hilary d's the extremely solidly supercoolest supercool chick. the tracks are superbrilliant and extremely solidly supercool. i would really delve deeper into this except this is a small box. 8^D
fugg mugget
these cats are an explosive group. this is an album of the far out and the far in and everything else it has. its monufuckinmental with a fucking laser beam.
@Eye_Fritter
This album, the band and its lead singer is an unprecedented rock emporium. THESE are the true freaks of nature swimming today. Hilary is the veritable smoking gun of the femme fatale. Loren is an upstanding choirmaster and an awesomely deep keyboardist. Jason has an axe to grind. All these kids are killers. That all says it plain and simple.
gritty*shaker*man
These are the grittiest highs I have ever heard and they are smooth.
olemancer
Hilary Duff is the only album I can imagine that puts an album like Pet Sounds into a second place standing. The Duff and the Duff supercrew created THE super smoking masterpiece. The time is now.
Steve Jetrock
There's A Kind Of Hush all over the world. It's Hilary Duff. Hermans Hermits meets David Gilmour meets Heart meets Vangelis meets The Association and thats only the half of it.
Zaphods!
With generous homage to Debbie Harry, Al Green, Gary Glitter, Patti Smith, Frank Zappa, Sonny & Cher, Freddie Mercury, Tom Waits, Tom Russell, etc etc etc, you could say, and still Hilary Duff! By themselves they've got it made. With everyone else these kids are the masters. I'm glad someone's listening to this music.
Carlenn
This is a ridiculously vibrant contribution to the history of the music world. It's insatiable. Part all that, part Bacharach and the biggest part Hilary Duff. It can be a challenging piece of work, obviously, in large part demanding listeners to look past what's on its surface to explore something deeper. It's not so much a reconstruction of cinematic epical pop but a glorious deconstruction of pop and its surrounds.
labrat@netmail.com
This organic and spellbinding opus, its a kickass rocking affair. 10+++......
orbla d
very cool
T-Yep
The flying opus.

The absolutely glorious best of the best of the best and it's better than all that. It's the essential that'll knock you off your feet and into high orbit.
49parazone77BGI@hot****.***
Hilary Duff is absolutely the most shattering blow-out monster of popular, but not necessarily pop, musical culture. This is truly the first great recording for a new generation and age. It would be a crime to not hear this music out and introduce it to a fledgling generation. Speaking of which, I almost laughed my ass off reading the wikipedia entry for HD. Misinfo should be a high crime. rotflmfao Now I know why no one serious uses that place. hahaha
zither_man
Hilary Duff has the smoothest tunes I have heard in literally over 30 long years of vacancy. Generally some people were giving up on great music. HD has got the momentum, the means and the way. They keep their eyes on the groovy prize and go for it with a smoking bullet. I think they are the total eclipse of the sun these days and I look forward to everything they touch. Btw, my brother used that site to research a school paper and got everything wrong. What do you expect. It's junk info. Move on.
Granular.popethesizert
I love this band! Hilary, Shauney, Loren, the crew.... the guitars are taking me a while to learn, there are so many great riffs here. I'm still laying down those Metamorphosis tracks. Wikipedia - Where Disney was a chinese communist working with the grays, Washington and Elvis were caucasians and Canada was founded by Stalin. No thanks. Next. lol :)
valleyhog7
Fucking amazing. Hilary Duff kicks an immense amount of ass. I think these song tracks will be remembered when cds are history. Wiki changes their entrys at least twice a month. No one cares anymore. Ask your mother. She knows best.
Astrophonics
Fantastic boss shit!!! This thing will send you to another dimension of musical space!!!!!
Strawberry Hill
HD music is a killer rise. Hils lead vocals are amazing as is the group but this chick can do these leaps, man. Who the fuck can do aerial tumbling like that? Its fucking inhuman. She's amazing at that. The guitars are cutting edge with great riffs. There's not one song I could favor above the others.
me@email
It's Nowsville, baby! It's real now!
bite_my_cyclotron
The band is phenomenal. Hils vocals are kickass priceless. Shauney is kickass. They're all forms of adrenaline. The music is a symphonic adrenaline rush. A progressive pop/electric swing kick_my_ass opus. There are no real followers.
the.blue.telecaster
From beautiful to pompous to ludicrous to venomous and it never looses its momentum. They did what they always have done, and what they did on Metamorphosis, and they did it again. Their sound, they are the crew on the Hil, just turns out fantastic stuff cause they don't stop trying. I'd love if they could play a concert at Graceland now. For DVD and on-line. That'd be a show of shows! 8)
Rockin Runes
The extraordinary trip down the cosmic mathematical highway of WTF. No matter how you take this beautiful and wity beast it is bound to mesmerise you unlike any other.

hilary duff is an awesome musical ride that goes all over the map and gets entirely off road. its a musically and philosophically fantastic superior listen and source to ignite the flame within.
Clamdiggers
With the lead voice and the bands music no one can truly equal Hilary Duff etches itself into the listeners mind. We want her because she is.

This is the best cd ever released. It took an awesome pack of kids to do something right for the cd. They may be loud but they can play and they make the music I like to hear. They recently had a show at the Huston Rodeo that I wish I could've been there for.
fangthedome
their loudness is in part because they wouldn't be able to hear themselves over the crowd. hilary duff - its the trip of trips.
leather_chair
I love this album and all Hilary Duff music with a lustre. It has an embodiment that's all its own like a definitive grandeur enrichment shattering the stoic pockets of the unknown. I'd love a Hilary Duff:Concert at Graceland. That's even got a great ring to it. I'd love to have seen them in Huston, too.
ben.h
Its my favorite album. Its an unbelievable album. You can put this music to the movie 2001:A Space Odyssey and its really wierd how it works. It gives it such a real wierd feel. I've read that Pink Floyd and other artists would write with this movie in mind. It works for Hilary Duff music. It would seem like they might be fans of the movie.
esperanto@centerpoint
Since I first heard the genius of Metamorphosis I heard the spectre of Murray Heads immortal Chess and One Night in Bangkok and I've hardly been the only one to notice. Hilary and Murray have both their guiding hands in the cookie jar. Hilary Duff is the girl and the band and the album who can and does without equal. 10 doesn't cut it.
groundbeats
Ive heard 2001 but Kubrick films were basically made to work silent so any great soundtrack including temp tracks could work. Coppola, Cronenberg, Kurosawa, Russell and Welles all made films like this. As does Mann, Bird, Tarantino, Rodriguez, Burton, Carpenter, DePalma, Scott and Soderberg. They know silence. This is the kind of music that works so well with silence. The best kind of music can equate the beauty of silence and even turn it on. This ignites it and leaves it burning brighter than the sun.
amancalled_interpod@bentwood
I think this is the most I've gotten from any album since 1975/76 at the least. Definitely the Murray Head Chess parallels are there. That's very interesting. They're a boot to the head. She's the knockout brains of the operation. ;) Endless Nights in Duffland!
459-Bistro
The Duff and Murray Head have travelled in same shadows, albeit perhaps on different sides of the road. The Duff continues to kick my ass again in hypnotic blend.
grande.parano
The parallels are there but from the perspective of the americans and their reality. No room for lip-syncing. Meaning don't go to certain dolled false fansites. lol They can usually handle themselves. lol This has a cinematic quality that could fill a screen activity. It needs a cosmic sized vista.
metal touch
chess if the rules have changed. hilary duff is far beyond any chessboard i ever played. haha she be great grandmonster on a champion team. hahaha its more than a parable for 80s politics positions altho its that too.
John.Gaff
Hilary Duff tends toward the flightier rise on my personal playlist. I think the albums have broken many previously unheard of presumptions of how a musical work can attain to something when a lot of listeners have been given the impression that musicians don't make that kind of music any more as a sort of widely established consensus between them. The only consensus taken toward making better music is at least the consensus of establishing an habitual better taste. There's a detractor site or two out there like that one you mentioned but I wouldn't waste my time on that shit. It's like any other such shit. Someone mentions wikipedia here. No one in their right mind would involve themselves with that junk. That shit does nothing for no one.
Qo_K.
I like Hilary Duff. Learning to fall is a part of learning to fly. To master the metamorphosis one must master the self. The master becomes the monster. The evolution is a success. Nothing has been altered in this sense.

henjet5000
Hilary Duff and Murray Head - great bodies of work between them. lolol The chronicles of a politic is in the cosmic clock of Hilary Duffs seminal musical CD lifeforce. The metamorphosis continues unhindered and empowered. Superb drumming, btw. Really great timekeeper in Shauney Baby! The craft on this monster is extreme storytelling!
the.loverack
it sounds mod and pop at least as loud and blustery as metal with a freak-garage sensiblity to the whole work. i swear it can also sound like the byrds covering the polyphonic spree to me. the weirdness is genuinely ingenius.
Existentacles.eyes

P_@.da.foodNdrink
Of paradigm shifts and eternal symmetries of thoughts, coupled with ballkicking hooks and a lead chick who can cook your ass for breakfast next to hers. They got game for gift and gift for game.

these mothers can really swing tight. they are the shining crew. the vocals cannot be mimiced and theyre dam dam fine. the group and songs are electrifying. the album is the pulp thriller. its pulp rock. :)

an outstanding transporter of an album. part psychedelia, part electronic pop art.
@the.river.sticks
this has the most unprecedented crescendos, man. thats no op art illusion but a real work of pop art. you might cover this but its not going to be easy.
@treitch
artsy mod glam and political balls-on band worth the trip and fucking loud w/ not very lots of compression. the highs grow on thu.
thesplicingroom
rocks paradigm of self. i don't know what processing they used on this but they did it grand. i think the master breaks the mold of how masters should turn out. this is a real and a true monster master recording. the cinematic forms of this is high addiction. the band uses visuals and circumstance in remarkable ways for the albums full length that are beyond the use of phonetic imagery and poetry.
Spinner
I would define this album and group as possessing its own style without putting them into the funny old style game. They had an idea of what they wanted and they did what they needed to make it work in the best possible way and it turned out sounding pretty alright in the end Ill have to say. The tracks are so good that you learn to not notice whatever flaws may be there. Are there any? Who cares, right? Right! You notice the music above all. Whatever compression was use was used right and I'll leave it at that without attempting a technical break-down in this tiny box. Tackling the Wikipedia crowd whatever theyre up to now is the same as tackling trolls on the internet. Its a troll maternity ward in constant heat from what I've read. I never use it or I'd be a clown and mamma didn't raise one. The cosmic parallels of Hilary Duffs music I must examine closer although I understand where they are coming from. The band has a very similar updraft to the music from past bands like a few that I think have been mentioned but I think they throw more than a few extra power switches on something that really works for them.
likino
Its great music above all.
kennet.puor
i dig the song patterns. the whole album is sensational and one of the great listening experiences.

This is Hilary Duffs mindbendingly great second CD. This is the CD that substantially blows away what great music is.

HDs sublime and frighteningly excellent musical thriller gets a 10 mark both for its purely dauntless effort and for its command of the unhinged magic of the results. This is rocks and musics true modern masterpiece unfolding its wings before us. Embrace it!

The loudest and the most bedazzling rock spectacle I've ever witnessed. The greatest rock performance band in the world. There is nothing before them that can equal. This has to be clearly the finest album ever recorded. The best and brightest music comes from Hilary Duff!!!!

unbelievaly the most outstnding concert i've ever attended. the band presence is off the fucking hook. to say things like kiss meets cheap trick meets blondie means you have to really go to see them in person. the album is the finest cd ever fucking recorded. what they played will take some time to sort out in my head because it is. the sets ared one pretty rapid shot with good spacing..

Hilary Duff is very possibly and arguably the greatest album ever produced. Any listener who hasn't heard this through and all of your many-layered thoughts and politik on the album and it's tense cannot remove from the grand gesture and affliction of the work on the whole or in its parts.

That was the most brilliant display I've ever seen and heard of the most brilliant musical album and music I've ever heard from the greatest rock band in the world today. This is as was expected. They gave their show as only they could and we all qualified the test as listeners. They gave the solid music from the start to finish, and gave it they did.
Duff Court
Incomprehensibly masterful album. The performance I am hearing was nothing less than musically mindsnapping pandemonium. The Duff and lead girl Hil got the goods and made the getaway. lol

I have a chance to see them in Amsterdam. I'd give my head to get there in time but I would be forced to listen solely with my heart. I need wheels, man.

mental entrapment and possession and a fantastic trip of an album makes for some hours of great bonerocking music. what else can you say.

The whole Hilary Duff crew are slamming fucking geniuses! Their music and shows are the most amazing things ever done! She's the head brainchick of the operation, too. She's numero uno. She's the mothership!

the hammersmith apollo must have sunk at least a good 3 to 6 inches into its foundation during the show. they gave the most solid performance from any band ive heard of any age or style. that, folks, is where real music starts and the flamebroiled go home to bed to sleep it off.

Hils vocals all range and shattering with pitch. Michael and Hooks guitars clean textural overdrive with explosive chordal mixture and very organic rythm. Loren is digital thickness synthesis and rich keyboards. Shauney swings those hard rockabilly solo rythms. Kurt plays the very percussive orchestral style rock bass. They are demolition crew going to work for rock and roll. They build new foundations and extensions to old school.

Hilary Duff makes great music. I really like them. The shows are real headbooting, man. Michael and Jason do fantastic leads and solo fills with those riffs and hooks. Jason HOOK, that is. Shauneys solo fills have been precision bonkers over the tour, man. Hilary covers all over the place from the high end down and she really belts it, man. These cats got pull.

Nacio.Madrid
Hilary Duff is an interesting phenomenon by themselves. The entire group and production team sees and directs things that generally no one views as either collective or singular, passive or impassive. The lead singer and her position at front and the other instumentalists as connencting pillars form a foundation of audio strength and growth, which would be normal as a band, yet then they have a profoundly systemic perplexity, deeper than insatiably classical curiousity, that permeates their musical work. The kids truly are in love with the development of art and knowledge, as music, as a mental expression, or a cerebral evolution, of social and universal development.

it wod be advice that Hilary Duff reach <140-145 decibels < (in excess!) with combo of band and PLUS crowd in Madrid!! Record over any including Hellicopters and NIN and old Zepplin. Loudness not matter but with crowd it is only way. ;) Hilary Duff is the greatest band in world. :)

This is the best listen ever recorded. It's on my personal top 16 list at the top now which says a lot because it's got outstanding company. Hil has a personal blog on AOL that shows some of the European tour highlights so check it out. Happy Mothers day to all you mothers out there. ;)
the_poker_doctor@the_twins.
i really like this band. its a bonafide electrical thrillride. it will take me a while to get the music on guitar because i don't have the music, either. i'm playing it all by ear right now essentially.
Tongue
They put together a grand little band. They're a severe boot to the head. Real rock the way momma taught you. There are severely excellent tunes on this I'd love to try myself if I can. You don't have to have Hils voice to cover these cause I certainly don't but it'll be my bands take.
.stealth_viko
They have good rep with each other mainly. Hil works so well off Lauren who bounces off Shauney who clicks with the guitarists. They do great giggin' mainly. Loren used to be with Hils sister Haylies old bands in Southern California in some capacity or another. Hil, Loren and Recke got them to all hook up with Shauney and Ty and Jay and such. Past members are floating in and out from time to time as guests to compliment the regulars during certain tour wings and studio recordings. Works out. They click. Bet your ass.

i think thats generally correct. they're a very tight hot unit thats for sure, and female vocals found their sinister voice of doom. lol 8D

dottex.quacallu.eson
If she did anything Hil stressed her voice out in the Mexico City show a little. People are still getting over it by all reports. It was a dream gig. I used to drink warm honey from a bottle but thats only me to help. They'll be back, tho. I couldn't get tix either. They sold very fast. There might be a chance now.
zad.penttons
My personal favorite list album. Want to see concert if possible. If readers know Rebelde, Hil is actually on it! How'd that happen, I don't know. But great!! I sort of know the show, I used to watch that. After I push voice too much if sore I rest before any more gigs. Warm honey is good. If you know about Neo-Citran that is great and works very well but only take it before bed I recommend. Get the powdered mix if you can. It would work good with honey. And then just sleep to rest voice. Janis Joplin used Jack Daniels. Just a funny note I don't know if true. lol 8D
K_Vans_night.siggins
I love the HD cuts. I might see them if I can. Panama sounds like a good date for me I'd just have to put it all together in time. Hilary is such a beautiful chick, btw. Age is doin' her well. 8P
tbsx.grubotron
some dates some audience feel her spit 10 and more rows in. she pumps quite a column of air into the vocals. i love the albums.
Cool E. Brand
I love this LP and all HD LPs, and Metamorphosis LP jazzpopmetal hybrid sound. I want to go to a concert date. Honey and Neo-Citran are good things, and also listen to whatever your doctor or someone recommends. Jack Daniels is not recommended. lol Put a little crystallized honey into a frying pan or pyrex cup and melt it slowly while mixing without burning it. Then mix that into coffee, tea or hot chocolate. Then lie down naked with blankets and go to bed. Trust me, this works.
Mr. Wix
I hope they make Mexico City into DVD. HD music is an eyepopping pill in a floating flying comfort zone resembling disembodiment in experimental pop sensuality especially on good stereo sound system and loud above 10 and 11.
matt_holde
Another CD of peculiar storytelling yet beautiful quasipop from the Hilary Duff band. This could just as well have been played on piano or electric piano as the predominent instrument.

great band with true tracks. hils sister haylie was composing tracks at least 5-6 years ago that some bands are picking for riffs and stuff today. shes another great asset to the team aspect of the band. hil and shauney are fabulous. theyre all sharp kids.
M-Syn
This band can storm harmonic hurricanes. I like their sound. Haylie is one of the powers behind the bands music. She's a heckuva composer.
viper venom
its rock, but with infusions from everything. metamorphosis had a psychedelia and i'd say more jazz infusion in various strokes. its a great album and a great track album. honey works. plain drinking water and fruit juices and resting works.
X_jag_spazz_X
I love Hilary Duff. The LPs are spectacular! I heard nothing about the postponing of the dates so it must be brief. Its back on schedule from everything I've been reading lately. I dunno about that. Honey in hot drinks is a good thing to take for your throat. Lozenges are supposed to work but I always end up chewing them before they dissove which they say you're not supposed to do.
secoppiar
They have rescedules of Panama dates and later dates to later date times for 10 dates but then back on tour. I think new dates in Mexico, too. Hilary Duff is favorite CDs and music but I haven't got tickets either. Not yet.

I've found they use the most powerful overwhelming digital sound like a real sculpture. They're very much really a live gig band, studio or not. Its the immense ticket if you can get one, but good luck with that.

Kurt Morgan plays his bass thru Gallien-Kruger stacks. I think Michael and Jason might be using Ampegs and an old Hi-Watt stack for guitars from pics I've looked at. Beyond that I don't know. They sound awesome to the limit whatever that is for them. Hilary Duff is an awesome great sounding band! The cuts blow me away!

Kurt Morgans on the GK site. I always liked Hi-Watts. The band smokes the almighty brainfuck. Metamorphosis had a sort of lounge jazz untercurrent to it on some things, to me anyway.

the album with the best tunes i've heard from any single disk. the second from hilary duff to do this, in my opinion. can't go wrong with that approach. ya, sad about billy p. ther've been a few other beatles. in some ways haylie duff or jay walker or sebucao or recke are all the other duffs in a similar association.
Shine_On_University
truly the excellent beast of an album. true another one after the metamorphosis. hil cuts great volume although her voice actually sounds like that for real. thats all her natural pitch. like a young female neil young in some offbeat way. you could probably scream some of this if thats you. billy rip.
The-Eye-Cage@..
supergreat cd with no compromises from hilary duff band. the tracks will lift your duff and your mind. theyre a good jammin band 2. she sings in a unique way but she makes you embrace every word.
kiss52S
I've been trying to multitrack a couple of Hilary Duff songs lately in my home studio. HD cuts awesome tracks, man. Truly milestones. I can dig it very much. I don't bother trying to say pop or whatnot. You can't beat that sound although its not easy to get reasonably close to in a home studio. According to the radio Al-somethin-somethin-somethin is no more. You think to scare anyone he'd have used a name like The Riddler or The Joker or something like that.

Hils voice is young female and she carries it all on a fucking leash. Gotta give her the hand she works it for. and the album fucking BURNS, BABY!!!!!

Hilary Duffs' fantastic realism in a pragmatic hardened pop music and a uniquely sublimely menacing appeal. This is an audio explosion, not so pure and not so simple.

I love this one. It's music enough to pack a head right up tight. Man, does this not pack a fucking wollop for 17 tracks. I also thought the Metamorphosis album would sound terrific if redone by a modern jazz ensemble.

Hilary Duff offers quite brilliant and disturbing meditations, sometimes sad, on the condition of lifes forces, but never fails to lift the spirits. It's a unique work of thought transformed into music. I gave this a 10.
Nacho Libra
This is a deeply encapsulating ass-kicking rock album from The Duff. They blow the literal roof off of what has, to some, been called the conventional popular music scene and state of modern rock. Blows your mind sideways. Sad about Syd. My thoughts also go to our man Mickey Spillane and all their families.

Truly some of THE best asskicking cuts ever recorded. A guaranteed rocking killer listen that packs a shitkicking combo punch. Turn it up! It'll blow you clear away!!!
technovegas
eponymously unbelievable kickass master-class epic that rocks to the inner bone! to think that they put this to master within a year!! makes you drool!! the bands been on tour for most of the year so a new album probably won't be right away. they've got a disk set coming out, tho. be lookin for it.
thenewmetaloids
The GIANT of an album!

brilliant and whacked classic

Whacked OUT! Waaay OUT! Super-diseased sick spacey rock mix!! The Duff got da stuff!!!

thisll be in my head forever... no doubt bout that... :O
Booth 23
It's very off the Hook, no pun intended. It's very fresh every listen which is good. That's not a bad thing. It's got a turbulence to the music and sound and the band and vocals and bass guitar and engineering which has a mighty boot to it. It can test fences. It bites. It soars. Fantastic, fantastic stuff!
Bunnytech Technologies
the awesome vocals, drums and guitar leads are all unique which catches my ear!! awesome!!
dregslife
helluvan album. helluva sound. hils got killer mile-high vocals. loren kills by synthesizer. cosmic quality stuff from hilary duff corps. 100++
the_sonic_perceptor
Hilary Duff cuts the smashing stuff with fucking whallop to the head. They're killer. Absolutely killer. Vocals and guitars are killer. Yes, looks like a hybrid disk coming out in August in certain markets. Staying tuned and keeping ears locked and peeled. Sad for Mickey and everyone. My thoughts go out. Huge particular fan of Mickey, too.
smooth_seeder
ultracool sound with ultracool vibe. i been diggin it.
nonplexus
Well, it rocks, that's for definitely sure. I love the Hilary Duff sound. I can't figure out whether Shauney Baby is even on this new tour wing. It's looking like she won't make these dates. It's not clear with me. I can't wait to see HD hopefully soon. Buying tiks on-line is probably the best bet if I want to ensure I'll get them and I recommend this approach nowadays. There are some interesting comments on this page and I agree with what I've read. I wonder how long Hil will follow the acting bug thing, too. I wonder if the band will have more prominent roles in the next movies.
the_flying_flapjacks
I don't think Shauney or Michael C are on this tour wing. These added dates came as a surprise to a lot of fans. The tour never ends. I like it, I like it! I think Hilary D could be a spacecraft pilot or a tough talking detective in her next movie. She could be Supergirl! And she'd be HAWT in the S suit, oh yes!!! 8D I think they should all swing by Princeton campus and Delaware if they can!!!! THAT WOULD BE A DATE!!!!
The.Final.Cheese@tfc
Some shit magazine had HDs producer actually firing Shauney B, but of course you never hear anything else about it. If there's a shred to that then they better come on back together for the real thing. The Hilary Duff name is synonomous with awesome music and that's how it is. Show biz feuding doesn't cut that scene. Stay away from that zine scene, Duff Machine. You know you know better.
billionthballer8.alive
Tho ONLY real, viable explanation for Shauney leaving for now is because she has her new instructional videos she's working on which would never get done if she's touring and jamming most of the year with the band AND making appearences in Hilary Ds movies and stuff. There would be zero time for making the instructional videos. Any of this other stuff is rubbish. Even, like you say, there's a shred of truth in them it won't be truth for long. Sooner or later the acting will die off but the music will always live on, as it always is. I don't think the acting even came into the picture. There's far more in the Duff sound than any acting will ever remove from now. It's way too late for that thinking. They're wayyyy beyond that point! Thay got tha beat! Da albums da monstapeace!
water boy
a coolest mesmerizing mother album. great, great songs!!! shauney and michael aren't on this current tour leg. shauneys got the instructional videos shes working on so that sounds pretty sincere. someone should tell hil and the band they're good at what they do. they ain't fucking teen beat. they're everybody beat. mind you every band with a teen in it gets that shit. sometimes it's hard to be a teen in a nuclear age plagued by mutants and shit. ;) jk
The.Paper.Wall
I count this as one of the best records in modern music history. You bet your ass their good. They don't play music like this to be in gossip mags thats for sure. The tours done very well for them and all fans. Elvis, Darin, The Beatles, The Cars, all had that gossip mag routine to put up with. The music lives.
synthomesh filter
shauney baby -< instructional videos. paper walls is right. music is better than the gossip trash trade. hilary duff makes the mark. it's the greatest rock album of all time.
mi.f.net10/100
Arthur Lee RIP - Hilary Duff is the Stuff. Shauney has a job to do and she needs her shoes filled for a while. Let it ride, dude. Who reads it anyway. 10X10X10X.....
Triesta
All what you have said considered, I don't think a true musical work like this can be marred by media rumors and inept reporting. Technically by itself there's more grounded vibe and substance on this album than anything I've heard in the last 25 or 30 years from a rock record or not. It makes the grade. It artistically blows the grade up. lol
s.my-microrant.net
this is a fucking modern classic. i'm on the duff bandwagon.
tubulargrass.edore
This is easy one of the excellent CDs I have ever heard. The Cars meet Deep Purple meet Hilary Duff with the fem vocals off the whack from the lady Duff. Excellent and righteous music gotta spin it!!!!!
alyk
its fascinating. like trippy.
Chelen Burrot
Wild and weird music, but studio yet so grand. HELLUVA studio, mind you, but so grand and wild and weird. This album is an awesome classic and inspiration of the day or of any day you listen to such grand music. It's towering.

c.o...taga@hotmail.com
This and Metamorphosis and the MW tracks could effectually the Hilary Duffian interpretation of Many Worlds. Wake Up and Compute! Shut Up and Duff! I completely get that interpretation of it. The tracks are true killers. I'm gonna record a cover version of a few of the HD tracks in my home studio. Probably Weird, WTG, Cry and The Getaway to see how I do.
the_tweak
An outlook on real Many Worlds interpretation, yes. You could say that. The albums's hot stuff. The tracks are bonafide killers. They have lasting style. Duffs got the stuff.

cosmic material girl and guys with wormhole vortex harmonic effect. nice loud and clear quality to it all. big hot fuss stuff. luv it.
v.ony.dynaptiks
I like this cd. It opened my eyes. I wasn't sure what to expect. You're not ready for the uproarious onslaught that comes from this cd after the metamorphosis cd because it packs such a punch to the head. Hilary Duff is a refined powerhouse listening experience.
WAP SKAT
Second to nothing. Glorious harmonious unchallenged rock at its most esteemed from the Hilary Duff Group. You have to fall in love with this. It is a work that has no equal in musical annals, period.
momoxvator_@gmail.com
this is the total blast and ultracool solid epic. amaaaaaazing harmonics 2.
onliner.GL
A ballbusting high. It flies. A real ballbuster.
freaker_99
Its one stupendous album with great rising highs. The tracks and songs in general are a sweet piece of work. I sort of listen to this everyday I get the chance because it's got a meditative bliss quality that feels like a space chorus in a way. Hil and sis Haylie are starring in this comedy movie out. It's supposed to be good and funny. It's an interesting process for them to do music and acting but they run with it. I'll be seeing it this week most likely. Because Shauney is making her instructional videos now I don't know the future drummer of HD.?
doctor_space_waves
Hilary Duff sounds to me like twilight zone era 50s retro pop with new wave accents sung by Hil and the group. Soars. Very cool. :)
takababe
zooomin with the shrooomin. deep pop a la duff. :-)
dj nukleus
my head is fucking dope. this cd produces an excellent hypnotic intensity.
(T.N.B.)the_nebuloic_brain
It's got a lot of intrepid thought behind the architecture of this album. It carries the bonding and nuturing of the tracks very very well. I think this is an unrestrained recording of some magnitude. I want to see the movie with the 2 of them. Haylies a wonderbabe who can do just bout anything, too. This cd has esteem you often don't expect to hear. I think they should ask Kenny Aronoff to drum with them on the next tour leg with Shauney off with her videos now. I think he actually worked on this album somehow or something because I think I saw his name in the credits. Don't ask me how.
mister_tambourine_man
The tracks on this thing kill me. All Hilary Duff music is bang on to me. I haven't seen the movie and wont until next week but there's the new fire video out now which is a revisitation of the pre-disco go-go era days and has a late 60s/early 70s documentary/16mm film stock look and feel to it that is just bang on. It's all very go-go, as it was before disco struck. You should take a good look at that.
Eliminator S
kenny would be great. I could think of a couple of other drummers to fill in for shauney on the tour. the songs, the riffs, are destructive, man. they also break the loud record for live performances. when you hear em live you know they break any loud barrier. there is no mistake there. hahahahaha
los_glamour_boys
independent filmakers of that era would often have a dream or suspense sequence in their movies staged with mirrors and multiple exposures, basically like a fun house sequence, usually shot against a black backdrop. you see this in the fire video. its an homage of sorts to the indie, gogo dancing films of that time of the mid 60s, circa 64-66, to very early 70s, circa 73-74, just before the stuff in the 70s hit big. cool, video and track. always cool twist from the duff gang again. always nice. this album really major rocks.
@research_lab
You're right! Strangely, the dream nightmare sequences actually did look like that back then. Like a hall of mirrors and double exposures. I remember shooting shorts like that in super 8 with my Bell & Howell camera with the mental exploration imagery and effects and having to backwind the camera and set the aperature right for multiple exposures. Twilight Zone, Andy Warhol, Wises The Haunting, Hitchcocks Marnie, Goldfinger opening, and I recall so many others. I have to look at that video again. The song is dynamite. Gotta love the Duff.
The_Pathway
they could try a few guest drummers for a bit before they settle. there's a few cats around. ask. theyd do good with peter criss or peart on a couple of gigs to fill in. ask them. fly them in. i bathe in enlightenment for duff tracks on the whole.
widelux willy
The mirrors in the video denote various alternates from the way it is done. I think I actually counted 17 vertical mirrors but I'll have to look again. I love the vid and the song. Strike another up fo da Duff. They be swingin.
showbyrd1
I used to do 8mm home movies with mirror and matte effects in the day. I do them on camcorder now. The video is SUPERHOT! The movie is hilarious! lol Hope they get a stand-in drummer soon.
Night_Train
for who are really an old school rock and pop band they can play the old school funky pretty well. you can bet theres going to be at least a few sequencer-line heavy dance remixes of fire going around using that opening synth riff line all through it. it sounds very old school modular step sequencer. they are playing with fire. it compliments this mondo monster album. man what a ride this thing surely is. its a great work of rock art man. for serious sure.
gra.funkda_staband
60s edition pre-Logan's Run Funkology 101. High respects to Duff and the project gang for another super track. I like it. Analog sequencing in the mix.
seepee-YOU
hilary duff plays with fire ;)
he-drain
This album is the killer. Nothing else need be said. The Playing with Fire video has an Ektacolor film stock look to it, too, but it would have taken me ages to do with my old home movie camera. lol Old school photographic effects artists would have broken real mirrors for that. These might be cg. Looks excellent. Looks HAWT! LOLOL 8P She's lookin' HAWT, too. Excellent video. OW! Duff a la psychedelic go-go!
@brentwood.falls
very cool to be very HAWT!! 8P Mister james dean and all the tracks get total kudos. this is sensational.

instructional videos?? thats pretty sharp. wonder wholl drum for the tour?? i was thinking a few subs myself. this album is just fucking amazing. its so fucking 3 dimensional its on excedrin.
Hayzer_Beam
it sounds like my aries. loren uses a korg triton extreme a lot to get analog mod patches. i wish i had one of those because they're very cool boards. hilary duff has recorded the finest major release albums of this century. this is freaking brilliant music.
spunky lou diag
it's all bonk. hilary duff and the cd's a whipping powerful bonk-machine. bonk madness infects all pop culture with shit like this. from madnessville.

its a scorcher, and the most wicked decent escapade. old school never had it so good. call it poprock music or anything you want it works either way. listen to it and find out.
Feature Creature
10+ stuff from the Grup Duff. This is a killer disk that hits you with all Duffs ablazing. Give it a very recommended buzz for music everywhere. It is a trip.
breathy*_*street@msn.com
This is the major and massive self-titled work from Hilary Duff group. As a single body of work it constitutes the finest album release of the past 2 decades of major releases. When they hold the Cd format up to historys light it is the Hilary Duff recordings that will shine above the other Cd-agers. Indeed they are the hottest stuff.
THE WEEDLING
PSYCHOLOGICAL!!!
submission man
17 mirrors is an interesting conjecture, but I've yet to count them. The video's sharp. I wish all camcorders came with an Ektachrome filter and you could USB download filters to them off your computer. Downloadable film stock filters are the wave of the future, I hope. This cd is a true pop legend. The tracks are musical genius. It rewrites the schoolbooks of modern music.
cayshun
hilary duff is the true sick beast of rock. theres something you hear when you listen to this.
@the _estuary
The sizzler. The scorcher. The monsterpiece. Easy my fave platter of recent years. You can't help but be ignited with this music.

Shine On, Hilary Duff! Shine On, Mr. James Dean! The Duff Shines On!
dyna moe
cosmic superpoprock and best cd ever made
mr. ambassador
I found there to be a quintessent multidimensional beauty to this music from this group, the lead girl adding a remarkable ritual centrepiece to the situational smoldering embers, so to speak. They do quite drive this solid unstoppable OOMPH to the result in a very loud and prosperous way in the end. I really came out liking the album, which wasn't difficult, for its sheer busting-outedness of great sound, to be frank, the experience alone being a queen unto itself, and dare I say empress.
col.gator
this volume kicks for f sure. itll be great for me when i can lay a cover down of a tune. i hear empress around . i like it. ive read that on other sites.
popheaded-mopstar
knockout fantastic volume of tracks... totally mindwarping.... one of the true great listens... totally crisp, man... i wish the who would cover a hilary duff track on their tour..... duff to the bone...

Hilary Duff is the album that rocked this world. There are bars on this monster which break balls and mightily genius stuff from the Duff crew here. Happy Birthday, Hilary Duff. How else would one promote a birthday exactly anyway there? I've only seen the boxes of the perfume but the packaging looks fly enuff. As a male I too wish for shaving supplies and bath salts would be nice.

they could ask Bun E. Carlos to step in as drummer for a while. hed sound sooooo great with the duffsongs. this cd is the unrestrained killer in the key of celestial pompous. happy b'day, hil!:)

hilary duff... with love... for men. uh-hmmmm... lol 8) looks like hot stuff. a scented deodorant for men would be nice. this albums got, needless to point out, quite a perspective dimension going for it. it truly flies from the getgo. it is unparalleled musical bliss with no restraint.

glorious fuss about. the intensity is a beautiful feast for the the ears.personally i would like to hear elton john make some covers from this.
de.anvil
hilary duff has a real kick your body feel to it and the womans vocals cut through and work with it so well its a massive freaky thing to get it in you. they should BE.C him if he would like to drum for a session or concert. hes an emminent drummer. bet he'd say yes.
Cruzeball
You mean they should ask Bun E. Carlos to do a session or gig with the Duff? Hell ya! If they asked him he would. Hil and the gang could ask him personally. Why not? ;*) I sure would. He's one of my favorite drummers and HD is my favorite band. 8*D He'll wake up with the monster. lolol
stereofly.net
Hilary Duff is igneously superfly in surround-o-scope! Truly this is the ultimate pop experience! Bring the bunny man to the stage, my man! Dig it all.
elkin.net
If there is any young artist or group of artists that Bun, Elton or The Who could do a cover of it's Hilary Duff. If there is ANY new song from ANY young artist that The Who would best be served to cover on tour or for an album it is a Hilary Duff song. It would beat those winter blues in a manner of speaking.

trainw
i think the mature thinking crowds among both hd and who fans can grip the credibility of the who covering an hd song. it is an idea that roots its mutual interests with the thoughtful levels of experience from the closing gap of the varying listening generations. when this album rolls along during a playthrough it sets a case for noncompliance by the present youth listeners building the stage reciprocal toward the more easily standardized decay of general publicized thought.

Musically imaginative and very high spirited, Hilary Duff soars into yet uncharted electro-rock territory with all barrels blazing and the pedal to the metal. Hilary Duff is one of the contemporary generations music scenes best of show albums with a finely sculpted bullet. The addiction to the music becomes effortless.

the tracks on this album are real permeating numbers. they're real monsters. it's very much rock meets pop on a new scale and its a very very smart attempt that works out very very well. i cant put the thing down like a great novel.

this album and the soundtracks captures basically what music is and maybe conceptually should be more of. i like this album and hil and the bunch very much. they have great elements down with their albums.

Hilary Duffs self-titled eclectic and superbrilliant testimonial to great ultramod music from all points on the wierdness scale of things. This will destroy you and the tracks are inimitable killers. c

i doubt ill fully understand everything about an album like this one, especially such a piece of craftwork, because the song tracks like shine, getaway, watching over me, cry and the others i cant get over them. i mean all of them. theres no even ground in that thinking. it took my breath away quite literally.
Louis.Venomo
Hilary Duff is the true masterpiece. This is the album you listen to when all the others don't work. Absolutely genius sensational and beautiful music masterpiece.

this is a wickedly charged album. i would recommend this with very highest considerations. hd gets it down again with this and it stays down. billy cobham would be fabulous on a track. hil and the crew should really ask him or his rep. hes one of the great stylists of the era.
theokitef@msn.com
prrrrt-prrrrt-prrrrrrrt-prrrrrrrt-prrrrrt. bc has a sound when he travels over his toms that is one of a kind. he could lend to the duff machine. hd rocks seriously. the album robs you of your wits to contemplate it. how long did this take to record? 1 year? thats amazing. thats breathtaking. it's got sound, man.

Hilary Duff will pop your mind and rock your Duff, without a doubt. Spin these mothers.

Hilary Duff by Hilary Duff is an eerily and flooringly seductive manuscript of musical conciousness ripe with beauty, prestige and literally earth upheavals all over it. This album shines immortal and there's no crying over that.

i like the duff because the concerts have this indescribable intimacy. the music is completely ripe for that. none of this is overly produced but always on the right ball. i find that can be a rarity on such a level as this reaches.

Real American music given a real dream album. I listen to this at every given chance. Mwah, mwah, mwah, Hil! The landscape is yours!

The GREATEST Rock and Roll album EVER recorded and on the top of my personal all-time Top 5 list, Hilary Duff is the blow-U-away compendium of Rock masterpieces that we used to dream of making when we were kids. You've got to love this for what it is.
r.r. sebastien
You're stoners but I have to admit I love the album, too. It sincerely moves me every track from that first track thru that last, dudes. That's not at all a common thing to do when aiming to make an album.
