"It's a second-rate "Quarry" sequel. I think disappointment as a career-rebound-followup is what sunk this into my memory recesses. But it's a fun, Morissey tongue-in-cheek album. He doesn't sound as passionate about his work this time around, like this is a cover for a headlining tour or a way to..."  [+]  Reply

"Upbeat and poppy, though in a different direction than pre-Michael McDonald Doobies records. I like the older albums better, but there’s still great stuff here—mostly Here to Love You, What a Fool Believes and How Do the Fools Survive. Solid collection of songs."  Reply

"This along with Albert Hammond Jr.'s albums gives me hope that even if the Strokes eventually splinter apart there will still be good music to be had from them. This is a very good album that is up there in quality with the strokes' work."  Reply

"This is a really excellent album from the very accomplished American metal shredder. Back in its heyday it was classed as metal, in this day and age probably hard rock. I thought Cat Scratch fever was the best album until I picked up a mint vinyl copy of this in a local second hand joint a few ho..."  [+]  Reply

"Solid metal. But, The mixing of this album sounds archaic, thus giving a slightly messy result, plus the guitars are put to the background, they do not really rule. Guitar solos do not convince me."  Reply

"This might be the most fun album of the year. Prog rock epics, ostensibly about plants, sung by a madman with little regard for tone or pitch. I can't speak for everyone's pandemic experience, but this ridiculousness is just what I needed entering winter of '21."  Reply

"Difficult to get through all at once without banging that skip button a few times. CVB is more of a good-sounding band than a band with good songs. If it were only trimmed down, there is a great album in here somewhere. Lowery sounds a little like Paul Westerburg at times, but these guys play it ..."  [+]  Reply
