1997 Label: 滾石唱片 Rock Records (HK)
also known as "Thrash"
In 1997, Beyond released "Please Let Go of Your Hands". It is the 12th studio album by them. The music is largely diverse from the three album post-Wong Ka Kui (Paradise, Sound, Love & Life). They are even more modern-rock sounding, the first track "Era" (大時代) is kind of industrial-rock. The most popular would be "Preparation" (預備 , or "Ready"), which going to be played frequently in their concert. The title song "Please Let Go of Your Hands" ( 請將手放開) is also popular, still kind of connected with their lost. The heaviest song is "Huuh! Still talk about it?" (吓,講乜野話?). "Anaesthesia" (麻醉 ) is the only song that kind of reminded us into old '80-'90 Beyond song, with its soft rock ballad setting.
This album enjoy their late '90 Beyond success, but this is it, where the sign of popularity declined begin to show. This may be the last Beyond album that still widely await by mainstream fans.
