So we are officially in music that was released in my lifetime. I don't think that will be irrelevant to my opinions going forward, since nostalgia often allows us to forgive shittier albums, or condemn albums we have negative associations with.
But I didn't grow up listening to the Screaming Trees, so I was able to approach this album with fresh ears. I actually enjoyed this quite a bit. It was a little grungey, but seemed more deeply rooted in the post punk sound. It almost felt like a throwback, which I appreciated. The 90s musical style has sounded a little same-y lately.
So a great album with a wide variety of influences, and a nice introduction into 1996.
RATING: 4/5
