Title: I don't get it.....
Review: After attending a Dinosaur Jr. gig a few weeks ago, a buddy of mine got into talking about how great the Meat Puppets were/are. Now that was one band that somehow I missed during the SST glory days, so I decided to pick up this one and "Up on the Sun" to check them out. Uhh, well, just what IS all the fuss about? This doesn't rock at all, there's no decent hooks or songcraft, I played it once and will probably never play it again. Other contemporary stuff of the day, say for example "New Day Rising", just smokes this, as well as the above mentioned Dino Jr. Very disappointing...if you want to rock, look elsewhere.
Is the review positive or negative?
