Title: probably closer to a 3.5, but still...
Product review: now this was a pleasant surprise, another album purchased for the sake of my wife's nostalgia. but around the time we got it, i was absolutely in love with fleetwood mac's tusk, and band member lindsey buckingham had everything to do with how bizarre and wonderful that album is. so i gave his last solo offering a big wide open chance, and he surprised me. this here is a genuinely caffeinated record. it induces hopping and pose-striking. spiked hair, parodic billy idol sneers. at every second you have no idea what the next second will bring. it's like a house of mirrors, this one. it seems like whatever style buckingham wants to take on, he does with some degree of success. which makes the randomness less aggravating and more exciting. allmusic calls his style on this album "electro-acoustic" and i can totally dig that...powerful riffage and delicate complexity all spun into one.
