the title instrumental track sets a mysterious tone, and Glorious #1 feeds off this energy, providing a powerful punch. This album soars on a brand of rock music that remy zero have perfected and seemingly patented, because nothing else matches it. There are the more mellow tracks, such as "Belong" and "Perfect Memory," but the lyrical passion in these songs keeps the ear very interested. This is an album with no filler. Every track is energetic and powerful. Remy Zero does not disappoint.

Yes they have been compared to u2, r.e.m., live, and bowie? Well any way, musically, they resemble none of the above! That's right, REMY ZERO has a sound all their own. THE GOLDEN HUM is one of a kind great rock music! With original sounding music and a variety of different sounds at that. All of the songs are good, but 4 of them , I would consider to be great! SAVE ME, one of my all-time favorites, PERFECT MEMORY, one of the most beautiful ballads ever written!, BITTER and OUT IN, both great alternative rock songs! REMY ZERO in one word are awesome, and have become a personal favorite of mine! If you like great sounding, original rock music, THE GOLDEN HUM by REMY ZERO is a must have record, and one of the very best of 2001, and in my opinion EVER!

From the Bonoesqe vocals of "Save Me", to the melody driven ode to summer love in "Perfect Memory", to the somber and moody tone of "Afraid" this album covers so much ground and yet without going over the edge, like so many artists often do. The talent in this band is matched by no other band in America. I recomend this album to whoever is looking for good melody driven music.

This is the best example of well-written modern pop/rock I have ever heard. From the moment I slipped this disc into my CD player, I could tell that I had found something special. The title (The Golden Hum) perfectly sums up the feeling I came away with. This band is from Birmingham, AL, and it's quite refreshing to find a band with such well-conceived rock music, coming from the south. This album, produced by Jack Joseph Puig, is like the best of Smashing Pumpkins, Pink Floyd, Queen, and U2 all wrapped into one very original package. I have listened to this disc front to back hundreds of times and I never get tired of it!
