Editorial Reviews:

On "Escape From Dragon House" the sound is denser, thicker and richer than on their 2003 self titled debut. Escape From Dragon House is darker musically and lyrically with a fully relized style melting all of their incluences into one realized voice that's pure Dengue Fever.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Come down with Dengue Fever! Comment: Dengue Fever is wonderfully infectious. There's something in this album for everyone,for Asian music fans and merry tripsters alike! Think of a Cambodian Grateful Dead with a penchant for Dick Dale-like surf guitar,and a woman with an amazing voice.
The opening "We were gonna" is a rousing,almost Beach Boys on acid like melody. "Sui Bong" is another joyous tune. "Sleepwalking through the Mekong" is dreamlike. It evokes a night in the rainforest, with the ruins of Angkor Wat luminous in the moonlight. "One Thousand Tears of the Tarantula" is an infectious acid jam;it was on the second season finale of Showtime's "Weeds." Trippin' indeed. "Lake Dolores" is a melancholy instrumental. "Made of Steam" and "Hummingbird" are sad,thoughtful ballads.
"Escape from Dragon House" is a glorious escape into the world of Khmer rock! Come to the dragon house, come down with some Dengue Fever, and drink in the marvelous music!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Psychedelic Khmer Surf Music? Comment: While the above is a statistically improbable phrase, Dengue Fever pulls it off magnificently. I'm biting at the bit to see "Sleepwalking Through the Mekong," yet the nearest showing is over 100 miles away. Please come to Phoenix, folks! I have no idea what Ms Nimol is saying, yet that doesn't matter a bit.
Customer Rating:      Summary: AAAAH it's SOOO good Comment: crazy hypnotic world-ish music that sounds like Asian Dave Matthews Band. listen and let your mind get blown.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A very good album...again. Comment: This second album of Dengue Fever is as almost good as the first. I think some of the songs at the end ain't too good. But the tunes 1-7 is perfect, maybe?
All over, it's a good album, fun to listen.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Awesome Comment: This is so cool to hear this eccletic fusion of classic Khmer singing with all types of western instruments! I love it!
