5.0 out of 5 stars
The only essential Lemonheads album,
By Ted the handwriting analyst (Andover, NH United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Lick (Audio CD)
It still holds up more than 10 years and dozens of listenings later. The songs are catchy and clever with a punk edge and a sense of humor. None of it is filler and "Luka" alone is worth the price of admission. But if you are a fan of the "Into Your Arms"-type pop songs, you might not like this. I think it was all downhill from this point. If you do like this, check out "Creator" and "Hate your Friends", forget the later stuff.

Half Classic,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Lick (Audio CD)
Almost every other track on The Lemonheads third outing, "Lick", is a memorable slice of proto-grunge in the vein of other punk-influenced artists from the late '80s and early '90s such as Nirvana and Dinosaur Jr. The other half isn't quite up to snuff. This is due in large part to the dual songwriting credit. Evan Dando, who would eventually head the band, manages to both pen the catchiest tunes as well as deliver the most appealing vocal performances, delivering the goods on both fast and angsty numbers like "Glad I Don't Know" as well as on mid-tempo numbers like the haunting "Circle of One" and their legendary cover of Suzanne Vega's "Luka". Founding member Ben Deily isn't quite so lucky. His songs chug along on generic guitar riffs that are totally par for the course for an underground band in the wake of Sonic Youth in the late '80s, and his prepubescent-sounding voice and seemingly nonsensical lyrics don't help.If you're a fan of bands like the aforementioned Nirvana and Dinosaur Jr., or of lo-fi acts like Pavement then I highly recommend that you give "Lick" a listen. It's good, messy fun.
