5.0 out of 5 stars Gimme Indie Rock, December 6, 1998
Get on your knees for the Massachusetts kings of Indie Sludge Rock. Lou Lou Lou, you rule rule rule. Okay, I've payed my homage now it's your turn. This album consists of distortion filled ballads and love songs that will make you hurt. Warning: if you purchase this CD, make sure you have got a box of kleenex and a padded room, because I guarantee you'll be blowing your nose and slamming your head into the wall.

5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this c.d. now, November 4, 1998
This is my favorite c.d. It is so good. It is better than all the other Sebadoh albums because it is more raw and earthy. It provides a good mixture of loud songs to get angry to and soft songs that make you just mellow out. Anybody will love this c.d. Sebadoh is a great band and this album is their best in my opinion. If you like the band it's a must. And if you don't it's a must anyway. The more I listen to it the more I love it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Loud and fun but underwhemling., July 1, 2004
I wasn't really expecting much from this album because it was the last Sebadoh album for me to get and I didn't really hear anything from it. So I went with what people were saying here and listened to it. The opening track Crisis got me confused if this was the same band actually until the middle part. Crisis sounds more like metal then punk rock with Eric screaming his mind out. But then everything switches paces with Brand New Love which is a redux version only with the guitars plugged in, it's probably one of the standout tunes on the album and is really loud with the feedback near the end. The next song Notsur Dnuora Selcric is a confusing song with a weird title that makes it out to be another screamfest from Eric. But it's a solid song. Track four Vampire is pretty good, but I wasn't a huge fan of it. Good Things is a short but good song. Cecilia Chime in Melee is a loud instrumental that kinda drags on with the noise. I wasn't a huge fan of Everybody's been Burned. Junk Bonds is probably the most punk-sounding song on the album, I really like the lyrics and the sounds of it. Great song. Another standout song is Mean Distance which starts pretty mellow but goes totally nuts in the last minute with Eric literally screaming his heart out. Standout track #3 is Pink Moon which is really catchy and really done well. But the closing track made the album to me. The song Mind Meld which is a 7 minute noise-fest is just awesome. It saved the album from being so-so.

I don't know how to recommend this. The sound was alot like the Pixies actually only with Barlow on vocals.
