5.0 out of 5 stars POP!, February 26, 2000

When I preordered this CD, I really didn't know what to expect. With the schizophrenia of Boss Hog's last outing, I expected another mix of moaning strings and jagged guitars, purring vocals and middle-finger solos. Well, "Whiteout" isn't as mixed up as Boss Hog's self-titled amalgam . . . BUT I LOVE IT! "Whiteout" is a collection of ten really solid pop-tinged recordings and I recommend this one highly to anyone who likes a little bubblegum with their metal.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointing, but not worthless, March 15, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Whiteout (Audio CD)

I am a big Boss Hog fan and had been anticipating the release of this album for a while. Unfortunately, I was a little dissapointed when I finally bought it. The songs aren't neccesarily bad (except for "Get It While You Wait" which sounds like Garbage for christ's sake!) they're just not as good as previous albums. However, there are a few songs that are really good. "Nursery Rhyme", "Fear For You", and especially "Monkey" are great old school Boss Hog songs. If you're a big Boss Hog fan this is probably worth getting, but if you're new to Boss Hog I would recommend starting with thier self-titled album on Geffen or the Girl+ EP (if you can still find it).

4.0 out of 5 stars Whiteout, what's the problem with this album?, May 16, 2002

I've read many reviews stating that this is a no good album. It's nothing compared to their previous effort, 1995's self-titled album. To be honest, the 1995 album is good, of course, but there are so many throwaway songs on that album. Whiteout, though, is a nice collection of pop songs that still have that independent edge. On the whole, a great album. Admittedly, I didn't like it whatsoever when I first got it in the mail, but have since grown to enjoy it immensely.
