Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Puddle Of Mudd Band: Wesley Scantlin - vocals/guitar Douglas Ardito - bass Christian Stone - guitar/vocals Ryan Yerdon - drums

"It's about passion and writing music that connects with other people and somehow heals them in a great way. I really want to try to crawl under peoples' skin and at the same time make some kick-ass rock `n roll music," says Puddle Of Mudd front man Wesley Scantlin about his band's third album, Famous.

Puddle Of Mudd now has fresh inspiration from new members Christian Stone (ex-Campfire Girls) and Ryan Yerdon.

Famous was recorded in Los Angeles and Colorado. Brian Howes (Hinder, Daughtry) co-wrote the first single "Famous" with Wes and produced the track. Former Black Flag drummer Bill Stevenson (Rise Against, MXPX etc.), Jason Livermore (Rise Against, NOFX) and our own Jack Joseph Puig along with Puddle Of Mudd all have producer credits on the album.

Hometown Base: Los Angeles, CA

· First single "Famous" topped the rock radio charts at #1 on both the Active and Mainstream Rock formats. Top 30 @ Modern Rock.

· Over 5 million combined U.S. album sales in the bands career so far.

· U.S. tour Fall 2007 starts 9/21 runs through to end of November.

4.0 out of 5 stars Who knows, October 9, 2007
This CD along with Puddle of Mudd in general is a bit of a guilty pleasure of mine. While I don't think they are the most talented or original band, they can craft some pretty catchy radio stuff. This album is better than their last one, Life On Display, but it's not quite as good as their first. If they market the CD it has the songs to do very well on rock/mainstream radio, but it seems they aren't marketing it much at all. Here's a run down of some of the songs:

Famous - their first single similar to Away From Me and Control. 8/10

Livin' On Borrowed Time - Like Famous, the chorus is like a Vines song. 7/10

It Was Faith - Generic rock ballad. 6/10

Psycho - Like Nirvana's Lithium only faster and louder, it's a bit repetitive and the lyrics are stupid. 7/10

We Don't Have To Look Back Now - Another rock ballad, not too bad, could be a hit. 8/10

Moonshine - One of those songs that's kinda filler, but this is alright, just not very unique. Reminds me of their 1st CD's vibe. 7/10

Thinking About You - Another decent ballad, the beginning is a lot like Edgewater's "Lifter". 8.5/10

Merry Go Round - Lot's of Nirvana inspiration here, Son of a Gun and Molly's Lips come to mind. 8/10

I'm So Sure - Weakest song on CD as far as rock songs go. Nothing memorable here. 5/10

Radiate - Chorus sounds like Augustana's Stars And Boulevards with some "Blurry" guitar work. 8/10

If I Could Love You - Like Moonshine. Not a good closer, Piss it Away was much better. 6/10

No 9/10's or higher because there is nothing that original or special about this CD, but I would say as a whole the CD is a 7.5/10. their last would be 6/10 and the first 9/10.

4.0 out of 5 stars I guess I can now call myself a proper fan?, November 27, 2007
I got into Puddle of Mudd, P.O.D. and Linkin Park, all around the same time. It was the year 2001, a period in my life when I just had this urgent and ongoing need to bang my head against something... and that's all I'm saying.

With the utmost respect to the others, Puddle of Mudd is the only group I've stuck with and after listening to this, I'm convinced I'll always stick with them. (I guess I can now call myself as a proper fan?) I'm not going to lie; I'm not feeling this album quite as much as the one before it, even less so than the one before that (and if you haven't considered Puddle of Mudd before now, I strongly recommend you have those two in your collection before you consider this one at all) but it's a fun album to listen to still. I'm no expert when it comes to rock music but I like the lead singer's voice, these guys play real instruments, they play their instruments well and their lyrics are always angst-ridden, (as is Wesley Scantlin's vocal style), which suits me just fine. I also think the group is beginning to pull away slightly from their Nirvana influences and are beginning to find their own individual sound. I think this could work to their advantage.

I have favourite songs on this album and they are "Psycho", "We Don't Have To Look Back Now", "Moonshine" (my overall favourite), "Thinking About You", "I'm So Sure" (a close second favourite that made me think of my father) and "If I Could Love You". I think this is a great album.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not quite what I expected, October 8, 2007
Sure it's easy to bash these guys who're without a doubt heavily influenced by 90's bands such Nirvana and Alice in Chains, but I'll refrain from that.
The albums starts strong with the chart rocking and ultra-catchy single 'Famous' and then slides into the realms of mediocrity. Those expecting numerous rocking songs in the vein of older classics such as Away From Me and Control etc will be bitterly disappointed, as this albums comprises of numerous bland 'rock ballads'. Next time the guys should stick at what they're good at; producing balls out Post-Grunge anthems.
