Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Heavy. Fast. These are the only two adjectives that matter to Fu Manchu. Finding the natural connection between Black Flag and Black Sabbath, the Southern California band was turning out its own personal soundtrack for '70s skateboard flick a Dogtown and Z-Boys several times over long before the actual movie was made. It's not about to let up on its seventh studio album, Start The Machine. No, it's not quite as heavy as the classic In Search Of. Yes, it does include the closest the band has ever come to a power-ballad in "Out To Sea." But, overall, it's an album that reaffirms everything--or, rather the two main things--that make Fu Manchu great. --Aidin Vaziri



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Short, but Good
It's been a while since Fu Manchu started (over twelve years) and guitarist Scott Hill is the only one of the original members still standing. Now they are on a new label -- DRT -- and it's been three years since their last release. The Album opens with "Written In Stone" which is a Fu Manchu stoner rock meets punk not being completely one style or the other song. You can't categorize their music. Then you have the more punk-ish track "I Can't hear You", which is hard driven and is filled with energy. ...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - strong fu release
the fu can do no wrong. i've been a fan since 1991 and this is a great album. scott r is an awesome drummer, following well in brant's style and there are very well constructed songs here with the usual great riffs and lead. best songs: hey, it's all the same and i wanna be.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Album
This is my favorite fu manchu album, certainly worth five stars. Don't listen to all the negative reviewers their just a bunch of old burned out hippies. This is more modern rock. Just because this one is too edgy to trip out on doesn't mean it aint good. Go out and get this CD as well as Dare Devil, Action is Go, and California Crossing.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Tone & Vibe Just Not "Hear"
If you're reading this, chances are you're already a Fu Manchu fan. If you have yet to purchase any of Fu Manchu's albums, they are an unbelievably great band and you definitely need several of their albums in your collection. So skip the rest of this review and enter "Fu Manchu" & "Go For It Live", "King Of The Road" or "Daredevil" in the search box now; buy all three ablums if you've got the extra cash. For my other Fu Manchu brothers & sisters out there, I'm really disappointed in this album. Coming ...



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - MONGOOSE AND PIGEON TOE
Returning once again to the candy metal shenanigans of TAIG and CC, Fu Manchu have apparently reneged on the promising power resurgence of KOTR--probably for good. Age has a way of mellowing even the hardest of metal tacticians. For those who wish to revel in Fu's pinnacle of power, please seek out the Eatin' Dust EP from 1999. The last two songs, as cited in the header, form one of the heaviest, most primordial one-two punches in the entire metal canon.
