An iconic 90s album for me. Loved seeing them on the VH1 Top Ten in the morning when I was getting ready for school, even though the single ("One Headlight") was pretty somber. The next single ("The Difference") and "Laughing Out Loud" are both more up-tempo and fun. It's definitely one of those albums where I listen to the whole thing straight through.

The very first CD I ever bought. It'll always be special for that reason, but I think it has held up well.

I’ve always enjoyed the production/processing on it. It’s an amazingly well mixed album for the time, I’ve never checked but I’d believe there is minimal clipping in it.

One Headlight is a great song that's still in my playlist. For some reason I've never listened to any of their other music.

Solid mid-90s song. Haven't heard it in years but always liked it. Brings back memories.

[–] Anticorp 3 points 6 days ago

Yeah, I hadn't heard it for years, and then Spotify randomly played it one day, and I added it to my 90's playlist. It often makes me feel nostalgic, and takes me back in time.

One Headlight & 6th Avenue Heartache have been in constant rotation since the 1990s.

That was a good album

It's good if a bit meandering. It's like he took his father's song writing ability and said, "but without the meaning."

Oh, no doubt. I still have that entire album memorized. It was just later in life that I realized how empty a lot of the lyrics were.

Very good band at the times, I remember the single everywhere first in the US then in IT, but almost 30 years later I can't remember any other song of the CD
