Echo And The Bunnymen emerged from the legendary late-70s Liverpool punk scene, melding the rawness and vitriol of CBGB-styled New York punk with 60s influences (most notably The Doors and The Velvet Underground). For the first half of the 80s, the band were accurately regarded as the vanguards of English post-punk. The songwriting team of Ian "Mac" McCulloch and Will Sergeant has mangaged to escape such easy pigeonholing, and has proven itself to be in the same timeless league as Jagger/Richards, Lennon/McCartney, and Reed/Cale. Mac remains the thinking person's rock icon, exuding an effortless cool, alien otherness, and unmatchable quotability. The sheer emotive expanse of his vocals is inimitable, and his unique (often oblique) lyrics are equal parts Lou More...

The PERFECT Album | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the album Reverberation performed by Echo & The Bunnymen Echo and the Bunnymen, way back when, sort of surprised us at the time and release "Reverberation", an Album of songs I still avidly listen to!! The songs "reverberate" with the resonance of an exotic, powerfully-subdued voice and expert musicianship, taking the listener from the highest apex to the slow and remorse. "Reverberation" is a wonderful collection of diverse sounds and moods, truly a masterpiece accomplishment by Echo & The Bunnymen!!! The Killing Moon | Reviewer: E ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen I'm sixteen and my <i>mother</i> put me onto Echo And The Bunnymen... and she was right. I don't tend to believe her but I really should have that time and not waited to hear this song in Donnie Darko. It's just amazing, it gives me the chills too... Underrated & Underplayed | Reviewer: lord.hyperion@juno.com ------ About the song Lips Like Sugar performed by Echo & The Bunnymen This song came along when I first started college. Its extremely cool and serene and like most songs that stick in my mind it reinforces a memory I had of arguably the most beautiful girl I ever dated (Lori C.). Cie la vie. timeless | Reviewer: Ted ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen I totally agree with reviewer HH. It definately takes me back to an amazing time in my life. One of those songs that gives me chills everytime I hear it even in 90 degree weather. Used brilliantly in Donnie Darko which I recommend if you haven't seen it also... stanislars is right | Reviewer: another bunnymen listener ------ About the song Show of Strength performed by Echo & The Bunnymen I have to agree with the above review. The only reason for checking the lyrics here in 2007 is to check that it really was "And those sadly things/Is always a sadly thing". And of course it was. Why I should care all these years later, and to try and figure out what it really means might ruin my enjoyment of the music. Thanks stanislars for the timely reminder to just flaming well enjoy it. To analyse it would be a sadly thing! Nice song | Reviewer: john ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen Nice song its was the music track of shiloh greathouse in the sk8 video named first love..astig Aparantly | Reviewer: Adam ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen In one interveiw. the man that wrote the song. claimed the it was the best song. ever written. ever. Killing Moon lyrics | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen He was standing in the shadows of a Bristol sidestreet one night, actually feeling some self loathing, feeling like some werewolf stalking his victim, when it was actually a boy he had a crush on that he was kind of stalking. He was killing time waiting for the boy to come out of a disco. Then the boy came out with another boy and they got on a motorcycle and left. It was then that Ian looked up at the moon and wished he had a machine gun, thinking it was time to kill. cover version | Reviewer: Tom ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen I heard a great cover of ''The Killing Moon"' by French Group Nouvell Vague. gorgeous! | Reviewer: debby ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen I know this song for years and it's still gorgeous! and the voice...it takes my breath away!debby.(belgium) Wow... | Reviewer: Jed ------ About the song Porcupine performed by Echo & The Bunnymen Damned if I know what the lyrics mean, but I always thought the second half of this song was the most psychedelic sounding bit in their whole catalog. The word play here is almost like Liz Fraser's, too bad so much of it at the end is undeciphered.... tHE KILLinG MooN | Reviewer: larry ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen WHAT A SONG! WOW!!! ITS AMAZING!!!!! IT REALLY IS, IS IT? YEAH, YEAH IT IS, ISN'T IT? it's about love and death | Reviewer: HH ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen the two biggies, fated to happen. i hear this as the hesitancy to accept both, and one person being more certain, or death being more certain. both can be received with caution but end in surrender. whether you agree with the interpretation or not, we all agree it's one of the best and most evocative songs ever. for me, an instant return to freshman year of college, with that beautiful album cover, to go with an incredibly exciting time. so, so good. GOD HEAD | Reviewer: stanislars ------ About the song Show of Strength performed by Echo & The Bunnymen It occurred to me recently that I could look up the lyrics to the songs on 'Heaven Up Here’, and it struck me as strange, here it being years into regularly utilizing the internet for looking up the lyrics to so many other bands. What was the unconscious reason for not looking up the lyrics to probably the most influential record of my life? Well simple, it is the beauty of the intangible in Maco's lyricism on this record, coupled with the magnificent percussive, melodic interplay amongst the entire band that seems to render the unknown word here or stanza there irrelevant. This record elicits the feelings of the bi-polar artist spiraling between rapture and terror made real and timeless by one of the most under appreciated bands of all time. Long story short this record is magic, and the less one knows about the mechanics of magic the more intense the trip. top tune | Reviewer: scouse billy ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen top tune, really got me deep inside dat 1 like. might ave it at me funeral, either dat or going underground by the jam. dead good. about a machine gun | Reviewer: mike ------ About the song The Killing Moon performed by Echo & The Bunnymen yea this song is great.. heres what wikipedia said Ian McCulloch once said in an interview with Smash Hits magazine that the song is about "A moon with a machine gun".
