The album opens with "Tired Of Sex" with features an annoying bassline and Rivers trademark punch me in the face vocals, the lyrics feature him whining about how hes getting laid BUT CANT FIND TRUE LOVE, I don't know whether the songs sarcastic or not I hope it is otherwise the lyrics are laughable. Lyrically the album seem to be just more of what we saw on the blue album, nerdy anthems and Rivers uncreative highschool bitching. Soundwise its a louder album, but that doesn't work since alot of times one instrument seems to be out of place because its too loud, the bass on Tired Of Sex and the drums in No Other one, etc. seem to drown out the others. The album has some highlights like El Scorcho but those are just highlights because in comparison to alot of the bad songs the mediocre ones seem good.

I don't understand why this is one of the most praised albums of the 90s, it seems to me like a generic sunny day real estate rip off except with awful lyrics and no angelic vocals. So yeah, in summary if i wanna hear a sexually frustrated nerd bitch ill play halo.

Rating: 2.5/10
