I often find myself listening to this album. I've always been a bigger fan of slow sad songs, and that's where this album truly delivers. I just wish there were more of those songs on this album. It males me wonder why so many people continually put down these guys.

hmmm if i had listened to critics i would never have bothered, now i am set on discovering matchbox 20 for the great band that they are. Man they get a bad rap from so many people and i just dont understand it!! this album is great.
Nic gave it a9:
The best album of Matchbox Twenty...much better than Yourself of Someone Like You and More than You Think You Are..other critics are so wrong this time
Monique W gave it a5:
I love MB20 and Rob Thomas. Yourself of Someone Like You and More than You Think You Are are fantastic works of art. Unfortuntately, Mad Season is not on par with these albums. On Matchbox twenty's second effort, they lose the charm that makes them so appealing. WIth orchestras and extra noise for no reason, this album is overproduced and hard to listen to. Rob's beautiful voice and lyrical artistry are lost in the cacophony. I'm glad the boys came back from this to make a good solid album with More than You Think You Are. I hope Rob's solo debut will stay in the vein of these gems.

one of the only albums in which i love almost every song!
Zach S gave it a7:
The production on this album is absolutely gorgeous. Big step in the right direction: in fact, they could have gone even farther with the orchesta and relied less on guitars. Unfortunately, the songwriting is only so-so. There's only so many ways for Rob Thomas to lament lost love, and this record goes over by about ten songs.
Pauline T gave it a 10:
This album is great. And Rob Thomas's vocal is like WOW. Recommended for ALL matchbox twenty fans out there.
