Format:Audio CD
This album represented a major shift in the bands style. Moving away from the more laidback grooves of their (amazing) first album, this release showed a new direction in a career so sadly cut short by the death of the singer, Shannon Hoon. A really totally original work, this album is absolutely superb - i have not heard anything like this by anyone else, EVER. The tracks that really stand out - Mouthful of Cavities and St. Andrew's Fall are the more mellow songs, but the band show their ability to 'rock out' (man)(!) on tracks such as galaxie, 2 x 4, and wilt. New Life is also touching as it describes Shannon's feelings about his daughter-to-be Nico, so sad since he died shortly after her birth. All in all a superb album, highly recommended.

I purchased this cd a couple of years after its original release. Listened to it today and it still sounds fresh. It doesnt really fit into any category of music. It could be psychedelic rock, new rock or classic rock. Whatever you want to label it. But whatever it comes down to, it is just brilliant work. You can just feel the lyrics. The music speaks for itself.
The opening track, Galaxie, sets the tone for the entire cd. From there on, its an emotional rollercoaster ride. Good driving music.

It's still obviously guitar-rock, but it's infused with New Orleans jazz (not just in the opening and closing numbers) and a perverse amount of that much-whored music-press staple, "eclecticism". The songs ebb and flow with anger, self hate and breath-taking optimism. And in an environment that was making deities of Hootie and the Blowfish and Oasis, this was an extremely daring record.
