"Another masterpiece by a great Aussie band. Don't just shun this if you have had bad experiences buying Australian music before because this is a bloody ripper. Phil, Pat, Joe, and Kris have done it again in style. I rate this album as being better than Guide to Better Living (brilliant in its own) because you can see how they have matured from a good band to a great band. Highlight tracks are Ready 1, Secrets, Tang, Undercover, American Party Bomb, and Rock Show. Every single drum beat, guitar note, and lyric roll out of your stereo increasingly better than its predecessor. If you are into Nirvana, Foo Fighters, Lit, Live, RHCP, or any other great rock band, I strongly recommend that you spend your hard earned dollar on this piece of ryhtmic art."
Better than "guide to better living" by far

"When most bands do a follow up album to their first, it usually, well, sucks. In Grinspoon's case it's the exact oposite. Easy, Grinspoon's second album is a really great CD. If you happened to like, or love the first, then you'll never put this one down. It really rocks, by starting off with "American party bomb", the songs just get better.The only problem with this album is that the lyrics aren't included, which makes singing along hard because Phil Jamieson (the lead singer) never seems to be saying whats he's meant to even if you know the lyrics...also, the instrumental of overdriver, while delivering good music, is only an instrumental, and that sux...other than that this album really rocks...5 stars easilyLet's hope Grinspoon can do it again wth their next album?"
