"I don't get all the really low ratings for this album. Seems like quite a likeable album to me. Not great, but if you liked it in the 90s, still makes for interesting listen every couple years or so. That voice is somewhat of a novelty.

"I'll always give this album extra credit because I played it to death in high school. It seems they never matched this. Don't assume it's only Runaway Train. There's plenty of catchy alt-rock here. Too bad they were overshadowed by Seattle." Reply

"This has a slightly more rock sound but it's still definitely the Cranberries. It's a good album, definitely an interesting one in their discography. I know a couple people who say this is their favorite by them." Reply

"This album is so beautiful, if I’m the first to say it, it is so beautiful that it makes you cry. It gives so many emotions. I hate crying and I haven’t cried many times the last 10 years.
