Title: Not the Ataris that I grew to love
Product review: Seeing all these flawless reviews sparked my need to write a review. While the Ataris are a band that I respect a lot, this cd is what I hoped it wouldn't be. Now in my opinion, they didn't "sell out" when they went to the major label. They have been slowly going to a slower more emo-ish sound, and that's fine. But for any die-hard fans of "Blue Skies" this is nothing like that cd. This is by far their slowest album and the tunes aren't as catchy as in past efforts. The Ataris have stayed true and haven't tried to appeal to the MTV audience even though they do have a video, but why not if you have the means to do so? Focusing strictly on the music, this is not my favorite kind of music, but it is decent. I wished they went back to their old style of punk though. This is one band that I wish hadn't grown up.
