Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released during a period of significant internal tension and looming legal battles, this album exhibits a surprisingly polished, R&B-influenced approach. While retaining flashes of their signature hard rock stomp, the Michigan quartet heavily incorporates horns, strings, and slicker production techniques, resulting in a more commercially tailored, radio-friendly sound.
