Noise Hit World (2007 - Modern Sky)
http://tenzenmen.ban...noise-hit-world
Hedgehog’s debut album “Noise Hit World” was released in 2007. Primitive hard-driving rock & roll is mixed with synthesizers to create a fresh and original sound. Sweet female and male vocal harmonies complement this mixture of sound perfectly. If you ever went to school in China you could recognize that the album artwork is a replica of a Chinese primary school diploma with Modern Sky’s staff as the pupils and the boss of Modern Sky as the teacher. Some highlights of “Noise Hit World” are "Toy&61Festival" "Noise Hit World" "Our Last Word" and "love tosh".
Blue Daydreaming (2009 - Modern Sky)

Hedgehog’s second album was released in March 2009. Unlike “Noise Hit World” which had all English lyrics, “Blue Daydreaming” features seven Chinese songs. Covering such themes as puzzled and nervous youth, and looking towards the future. Crystal clear bright guitars and violent stormy drum rhythms make Blue Daydreaming an impressive album. However what makes it really stand out from the crowd is how these elements converge with the actual lyrical meaning and content of the songs. Tracks that embody this songwriting craftsmanship are "Blue Daydreaming" "In Spring" "24 Hours Rock Party" and "Golden Age, Infinite Sadness", which were all big hits and expanded their fan base in China dramatically. The track "Waiting For The Last Bus" is an unexpectedly sweet moment in the album with singer Atom vocals expertly communicating this hymn to love.
Honeyed And Killed (2011 - Modern Sky)

After “Noise Hit World” and “Blue Daydreaming”, it was time for Hedgehog to say goodbye to youth. The title of the album Honeyed And Killed sums up the album’s concept. All the songs are about love and death, drugs and politics, credibility and integrity, and the lack of value and respect in China. The result is a big contrast between dreams and reality. Covering the meaning of life, youth, love and death. Tracks that really encapsulate the albums feeling and message are "Kill Your Age" "Honeyed And Killed" "Paper Airplane" "Wet White Doll" “Sparklehorse” and " The End"
DEstroy meMOries (2011 - Self-Released)
http://tenzenmen.ban...troyed-memories
Hedgehog’s March 2011 Self-Released album “2011 DEstroy meMOries” was taken from their underground issue demo of the same title. Consisting of 9 tracks, many of which are incomplete versions of new songs, they have been showcased in a lo-fi and gritty way, which sounds more like their live shows. Only 500 limited copes were made.
