Amazon.co.uk Review
Possessing a likable, arena-rock amalgamation of grunge, alternative and nu-metal,
Come C lean, the debut album from Puddle of Mudd, shows a band who are at once emotional and straight-ahead. Indeed, their no-frills line-up puts one in mind of a less uptight
Creed. Singer Wesley Reid Scantlin possesses an
Eddie Vedder earnestness that on hard-hitting tunes like "Nobody Told Me" takes on a
Cobain-like urgency. Ranging from acoustic-based yet lush midtempo rockers such as "Drift and Die" to the gimmicky fun of "She Hates Me" to the edgy
Nirvana-esque "Bring Me Down" to the dynamic and direct "Control," the 11-song-strong
Come Clean is an assured, accomplished and varied debut likely to resonate with rock fans of many tastes and temperaments.
