Waste Of Mind

This album is my favorite by zebrahead. The bass is so funky and I can't get enough of "feel this way"! The album had such a cool unique sound. Weird album cover but great music. Even if you aren't a fan check this out. It's something that came out in the 90s yet still as fun in 2017(it's New Year's Eve as I write this.)

How is it possible that Zebrahead isn't bigger in America. The best catchy, fun, happy, punk, heavy rock, melodic band I've ever heard. I can't get enough Zebrahead. The next two albums are great as well. If you like Green Day, Blink 182, 311, bands like that. Zebrahead is a must and this first album is my personal favorite.

Waste of Mind by Zebrahead CD arrived on time and in great shape! my boys love their music and got a rare monster on their video game monster rancher. very easy to order & fast arrival time! well done!

Bad Ass. ZEBRAHEAD was amazing and still kick ass to this day.

This is the first time ever I feel compelled to writing about an album, but Waste of Mind by Zebrahead is just so special. I discovered their music not long ago, along with a whole array of other North American pop punk rap rock bands (excuse the lazy labeling!). But Zebrahead is far more frenetic, bouncy and catchy than anything else around - and to my mind Waste of Mind is the essence of this sound. Not one weak spot, although several songs stand out, like The real me, Someday and Time.

Tracks like "Waste of Mind" and "Someday" prove that there is still originality in music today. However, Zebrahead needs help writing a bridge. In the same songs, the bridge section kills the song, as they rely on cliche'd transitions (like the Hawain beat in the middle of "Waste of Mind" - I always hate it when I reach this part of the song...normally I fast forward through it.) This is unfortunate, because "Waste of Mind" and "Someday" are my favorite songs on the album. The album opens VERY strong, and shows that Zebrahead really does have a lot of talent. But the originality does not last throughout the entire album. I was very disappointed with the last 4 songs on the album. But nowadays, artists are selling albums for 1 & 2 songs...so with 7-9 quality songs, I would recommend checking out this album. Overall, an excellent first effort. I'm interested to see how their second major label release comes out.

Unlike many of the tired, cheesy, boring and annoying rap metal acts that have come and gone; Zebrahead stands out from the bunch creating their own signature sound. It's nearly impossible not to enjoy the songs on this album. It will put you in a good mood if your in a bad one. This wild ride of rock, metal, funk, and hip-hop will excite your ears to the fullest. Every track is great, and the songs play off each other well with plenty of diversity. From the moment "Check" takes off, it turns into a thrilling ride. Their mix of rap, great lyrics, sweet squealing guitar riffs, crunching metal guitar riffs, funky bass lines, all with full intensity shows that this band has some true talent. Fast songs like "Get Back," "The Real Me," "Someday," and "Bootylicious Vinyl" to sweet chill tunes like "Feel This Way," "Move On," and "Fly Daze" transition so well with each other. Don't be swayed away from Zebrahead if you think they are just another played-out rap metal band, they are unique in their own way.

What can I say I love Zebrahead. From the moment I heard Playmate of the Year by chance, because I was downloading a bunch of obscure punk band songs from the internet, I fell in love with this great experimental band's sound. The Funk/Jazz/Reggae influence just adds so much maturity and diversity to the punk/rock basis of this band. The CD harbors the only song ever made by Zebrahead that I don't love, and that is Fly Daze, but it still makes me chuckle so I don't hate it. Everything about this CD is great. The fast paced, rap infused Check, the funky, jazzed out solos in The Real Me, Feal This Way, and Someday, and the fast-paced, fun Punk sounds of Get Back and Walk Away, which is also reggae inspired. And honestly I enjoy the solos the aforementioned songs as much as I like Freebird (Although, they obviously aren't the same caliber). And if you don't know what Freebird is you need to listen to some classic rock its by Lynyrd Skynyrd.
