UncutMuch of Suicaine Gratifaction sounded like it had been written in a mood of morose introspection, but Come Feel Me Tremble is brazenly exclamatory. [Jan 2004, p.102]
-
At the very least, it's the best album of Paul Westerberg's spotty solo career.
-
Even taking into account his work with the Replacements, this is the album on which every song is truly worth hearing.
-
The album is ingeniously constructed; many of the songs play off each other while seeming off the cuff and loose-limbed.
-
FilterNo explosions, no chiseled features on the album cover, and no glossy syrup in the mix. Just a classic gift for combining word and melody, a simple but rare recipe. [#8, p.105]
-
Come Feel Me Tremble is a bit of a mess, like they stuck the disc on a wall and threw the songs at it.... But you could say the same thing for Hootenanny, and to me this captures a bit of the same magic.
-
MojoA collision of punk-fuelled cacophony, halting balladry and guttersnipe sensibility. [Dec 2003, p.112]
-
MagnetOn par, quality-wise, with the triumph that was last year's Stereo/Mono. [#61, p.110]
-
Entertainment WeeklyThe scratchy voice still aches, the guitar riffs still gleefully rip off the Faces, and the songs sound like they just fell out of bed. [24 Oct 2003, p.106]
-
A few real gems lay hidden amongst Westerberg's home-taping sprawl.
-
The tunes here don't push your pleasure buttons quite like the old stuff.
-
BlenderRegret comes in many shades, but Westerberg never makes it boring or mopey. [Nov 2003, p.123]
-
Come Feel Me Tremble suffers for its lack of cohesion.
