...While some songs are overly indulgent of the past, listeners will be pleased to hear good late '90s Alternative-grunge from a band that contributed to the early '90s movement. This album is not STP's best, but it is self-reflective and diverse enough to maintain band loyalty, grace the airwaves, and please old fans...
