Album Rating: 3.0 | Sound Off
Put this on again as a pre-cursor to the new album. I still think it's pretty decent and a fair bit of fun, although can totally appreciate the flaws this thing has. Strip out the crap (We Never have Sex Anymore, In The Hall... & Lullaby) and you're left with a pretty tight, 9 track selection. However, what's left is also sub-28 minutes which is very lean for a full LP, particularly for one 9 years in the making. Couple that with one song being a 6-year old (at the time) single and another being a re-make of an older song and you're not left with much new material.
I think this would have landed pretty well if it had better production and was released as a 6/7-track EP. But they added some filler and let Bob Rock fly the plane...so here we are.
