Product Description

CD Description

Puddle of Mudd's sophomore album finds the band both digging deeper into its grunge tendencies and broadening its musical horizons with a collection of sometimes sinewy, sometimesuncharacteristically introspective tracks. The almost restrained "Sydney" falls into the latter category, its reflective lyric adding another dimension to the band's usually testosterone-driven songwriting. And it's by no means alone here,being immediately followed by "Time Flies", an extended exercise in surprising sensitivity.
This doesn't mean POM iswimping out--far from it, with an angsty opener such as themonolithic "Away from Me". However, it perhaps signifies a shift into more elaborate, latter-day Red Hot Chili Peppers territory, especially on workouts such as the nuanced "Spin You Around" and "Change My Mind". Mostly, though, LIFE ON DISPLAY is about consolidation and musical muscle-flexing, which means that the workmanlike rhythm section of Greg Upchurch and Paul Ardito gets to show its mettle on tracks such as "Bottom" and "Freak of the World" (the latter, by the way, possessing an uber-hooky chorus). Meanwhile, singer-guitaristWes Scantlin grabs a few more opportunities to wax splenetic about a world that just never seems to understand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Things are not so blurry now...., 28 Nov 2003
When I first heard the first single from 'Life on Display', 'Away From Me', I could instantly relate it to Puddle of Mudd, this is how they are and this isn't going to change. I would firstly say there seems to be much more clarity in the style that POM are trying to put accross, Wesley Scantlin has noticed his own vocalistic style and emphasised it greatly. Let me give an example ('away from me, comes accross as 'AWAY FROM MAY') Any fan of the band will know exactly what i'm talking about instantly. For me this is a good thing, today bands seem to be all about experimentation and many leave behind their initial roots, this is not the case here. The closest POM get to straying comes accross on 'Freak of the World' and even here don't expect anything crazy, it's still straightforward grunge in the end.

The styling is pure hard rock, with some tracks heading in a heavier direction such as 'Already Gone'. Some tracks such as 'Think' show more vocal diversity than 'Come Clean' but these probably represent the weaker tracks and even in this case it is not a bad song, all in all the riffs remain strong and crunchy.

If you are a fan of Puddle of Mudd's less commercially appealing side such as 'Basement' and 'Nobody Told Me', then this album is for you, there is no sign of anything representing the warmth of 'Blurry' or the yob rock chant of 'She Hates Me'.

All in all good honest rock which makes a change in current years...

4.0 out of 5 stars Life On Display, 17 Jan 2004
By Mr. M. D. Slater "marksl8r" (Coventry - UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
A strong album. Puddle of Mudd seem to have matured a little since their last effort "Come Clean", if not that much musically, definately lyrically - no more embarassments like "She Hates Me" here. Life on display is passionately played and a good solid rock album, however it can get a little tiresome to the end as each track is pretty similar.

The obvious Nirvana comparisons are going to be bolted on to these guys for ever, and while they will definately NEVER write an anthem with the quality and appeal of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" they certainly display the raw power, and sometimes musical competance on "Life On Display" to answer some of those criticisms.

All in all an album with some great moments and definately worth investigation if you were partial to Seattle's finest

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Grunge in the making, 24 Oct 2005
By Mr. Jacob John Almond "jjalmo" (U.K.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Being a huge fan of Alice in Chains, I was very pleased to hear this album. I'm a big into thick, harmonised vocals like in AIC and this album does not dissapoint on that front. The album combines this harmonic style with the 'accessibility' Nirvana had (catchy riffs and choruses). If you're into 'classic grunge' bands such as AIC, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Nirvana etc. then make sure you check this album out.
From the raucous tones of the introductory 'Away from Me' to the deep and chilled outro of 'Time Flies' this album is a passionate outpouring of grungey love! I very much look forward to where this band are going next and would love to see them live. I hope they continue using this 'full on' sound and don't end up like the crap commercial kiddy rock that is simply trying to fit a money making template. Well done Puddle of Mudd! *bows*
