Wuthering Heights

[ivanCorea]

  I've been listening to that band here in ERR, and this band is great! but when I go to yahoo to search some of them... official website or something I realized that they don't have one.

I only found a lot about movies and books and I wanna hear more about the band.
If anyone knows more than me, please let me know what you know

well they don't have any website   but this is by far one of the most original band I heard in a while  

9/10

talking about far from the madding crowd here

Their official website is part of the IntroMental label / promotion company.

Find them, and a number of other pretty darn good bands, at http://www.intromental.com

Their latest release, the one we have on the station, is called "Far from the Madding Crowd" and is much better than their older releases in my opinion.  They've got their new singer, Nils Patrik Johansson, who is head and shoulders above their old singer.

The two things I don't like about the Wuthering Heights CD.

1 - It just came out recently, so it will be quite some time before their next album.

2 - As Kailef says, their older material is nothing like Madding Crowd.  So you can't go back and listen to the old stuff.. you can.. but not really, ya know?

Funny story - I drove across several states with some friends, and introduced them to Epic.  The first CD they heard was Wuthering Heights.  (It seemed appropriate to start the trip with 'The Road Goes Ever On')  For the rest of the trip, they'd randomly say "TREE!"  

The album is amazing, though, and were it not for the hideous distraction in the final track (going from skilled, melodic acoustic instrumental to a screaming feedback electric sound HURTS!)     ...I'd give the album a 10.  Instead, I'll put it with Thy Majestie's masterpiece and say 9.5.

then Wuthering heigths isn't so good in their previous albums... I wanna ask you a favor Kilef, can you upload some songs of their previous albums   just to hear a little more about them

[Kailef]

Sure thing!  I'll add 'em to my order list for next week.

Sure thing!  I'll add 'em to my order list for next week.  

don't waste your money on their previous albums, please  :-/ they aren't worth it at all

don't waste your money on their previous albums, please ?:-/ they aren't worth it at all ?

that bad is Wuthering Heigts Before "Far From The Madding Crowd"...   well, that's a shame, but at least the one that is already uploaded is good enough  

[Sebastien]

that bad is Wuthering Heigts Before "Far From The Madding Crowd"...  

that bad yes, but it's my personal opinion, of course it can please some other people :|

Creed,  I am still randomly yelling TREE! I have introduced this music to a few other people, they were intrested but nothing much more than that. As far a Wuthering Heights, I love them. I haven't heard much that sounds similar to them in the world of epic rock.  

[Creed]

Oh just great, you mean you'll be yelling out TREE! in the car all the way to Dallas next week?    I might have to leave you by the side of the road somewhere and pick you up on the way back..      Nah, if I could put up with James, you won't be a problem, heh.  And wait til you hear some of the newer stuff I've picked up!

Now if only WH would put out a new album..

The old stuff isn't bad... but it is NOTHING compared to the latest Wuthering Heights cd. The old vocalist was not that great. It would be interesting to see the 1st 2 parts of their storyline.
(they started a story on their 1st CD "Within" and continued it in "TO TRAVEL FOR EVERMORE "  and wrapped it up on "Far From the Maddening Crowd")  

[ivanCorea]

I've heard the old stuff... and as thor said "isn't bad... but it is NOTHING compared to the latest Wuthering Heights cd"  

[Narzoul]

Hi all!

Disagreement here too. Their first two albums aren't bad at all. I don't know what's people's problem with the first one (Within), it's pretty good power metal stuff in my opinion.
Allright, the second one (To Travel For Evermore) might sound weird at first listen, but just because it's different, doesn't automatically mean it's worse. Give it a few more tries, and see if you still dislike it.

And actually they did have a website, and they still have it, it's just a bit tricky to find: http://wuthering-heights.dk/index.php
Of course it's pretty much abandoned for quite some time...

O thanks for the website   and wellcome to the forums, I will listen more their second album... I could not find the first one on mp3 (shame on me, I know  ). Don't forget to check the three games at "of toppic chat. Cheers
