Negative Positive
Title: Better than their first in some ways.
Review: What a follow-up! This one shows them playing and writing with more maturity and has a good balance between heavy and soft throughout. "Vasoline" was a tremendous hit for them. It is very edgy and reminds me somewhat of skate-punk. Don't ask me why. "Interstate Love Song" shows some of the aforementioned maturity and is my all-time favorite STP song. Everything about it is great. That's about as much as I can elaborate. Just listen to it yourself so you can get your own impression. "Army Ants" is another edgy song and the opening reminds me of something that Joe Satriani would do. Again, don't ask me why. Last but not least, there is a hilarious bonus track which is on a few minutes after the last song. It reminds me of Monty Python. I think they mixed up the titles on this album. The BONUS track should have been called "Lounge Fly." Anyway, if you're into alterative and don't have this one yet, get it. It's a classic.
