"Definitely Madonna's greatest album of the 2000's - very soulful, deep, charming.....'Sorry' is my favorite song here but I think 'Push' should've been released as a single. This one differs from other tracks on this album and could have been a hit" Reply

"The Foos becoming their own band, for better or worse. First 5 songs are great, but the whole album could be about 10 minutes shorter if they trimmed the fat on each track a bit. The production here just feels right, but the songs go on and on." Reply

"This is actually very decent. Much better than the crap they've been putting out in the last 10 years. Here they atleast have some energy and a couple of really strong singles." Reply

"A pseudo-concept album from the perspective of an ex-partier, wavering between nostalgia at the good moments of being part of the drug-fueled rock and roll scene of Minneapolis past, and acknowledgement that that time of life incubated and exacerbated the tragedies of adulthood for many of those ..."
