Some words from their latest album called Drinking from the Sun and from the song "Drinking from the Sun"...
We move mountains and drink from the Sun
We're timeless like riders in the storm
Survivors like the light that rises in the dawn
Listen to this track and you will fall in love with the Hilltop Hoods / I like to think of this groups sound as very well produced underground as a way of keeping it all real in my head.
I am seeing the Hilltop Hoods along with many other bands with Montana at Groovin the Moo at Maitland in May 2012. Man am I excited.

Hilltop Hoods from Adelaide Australia are an awesome bunch of fellahs and we are all going nutz with the songs from the Album "Drinking from the Sun". The Album went Gold overnight and Platinum a number of days later. Amazing, Aussie Hip Hop is hitting very high spots.
When I start breathing heavily, I scar the beat and the melody
They said that we're dreaming
But we'll keep reaching till leaving heavenly
The key to freedoms said to be, release and leave the memory
Imma weight upon your back and imma razor your lap
We came to conquer, stage and opera, fade it onto black.
Now hush, hear the voice, so addicted to the,
Rush to fill the void, missing everything we,
Love to feel the joy, build it up till we,
Crush, Kill, destroy.
Listening to the entire album this week has been a joy. If you want you may hear this track you may then hear these words and how amazing they are put together and how much meaning there really is here. Its tremendous.
Listening to the album has also made me reflect on life and how we see things and how that some are very very shallow and really they don't all do what they say they will do. Tough love works and it also kills and can destroy. Which then is not love. Love never destroys. Love is free will in abundance.
"Tough Love" is an imaginary figment of some fools imagination probably because it sounded good and quite new age. Well we are all not fooled by this high end idea of new age wisdom. There isn't a damn thing that is new for a start. All of what has been said regarding New Age Philosophies has all been done before. There is in fact NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN.... its already been done.
