    Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought this album was great. Spin You Around is a suprisingly beautiful song I thought. The other songs are all solid too. From what I see though, I'm the only one who thinks this way.

    This album is AMAZING, I mean every single song. You can't even really say someone else's music sucks though. I mean, just because YOU don't fucking like it, doesnt mean it sucks. So if YOU don't like it, just know that others do-millions of others love this album, and it doesnt suck just because a couple of people like you all don't. And PLEASE people, stop This album is AMAZING, I mean every single song. You can't even really say someone else's music sucks though.

So if YOU don't like it, just know that others do-millions of others love this album, and it doesnt suck just because a couple of people like you all don't. And PLEASE people, stop fucking comparing them to Nirvana/Wes to Kurt Cobain. I am a HUGE fan of Nirvana, and Nirvana/Kurt live on thru their music, but you seriously need to stop comparing. Get the fuck over it, Puddle of Mudd rules no matter what the fuck you say. "Come clean" was the biggest (selling)fucking debut rock album EVER! I just could not understand how someone couldn't like these songs, though. Wes has a beautiful voice, and incredible range, and is a very very talented songwriter, and I loved every song...this album is a perfect 10. Expand

    Puddle Of Mudd is a great band. Although i think their 1st album come clean was a little bit better, this one definitely isnt bad. each song has its own catchy tune that leaves you wanting more. Each track has tons of intesity in it. Definitely pick it up. My favorite track is Nothing Left To Lose.

    Though not exactly what I expected from the band, this is hardly what one could call a sophomore slump. Songs like 'Away From Me' blow any of Nickelback's new stuff clean out of the water. The band does sound a bit generic at times, but there is a certain level of vitality in their music that elevates it beyond most recent releases.

    You guys are stupid if you dont like this CD. It is the best music ever to come from anywhere. As for Kury Cobain, hes dead and he died a long time ago. Its time to move on. This CD rocks and it rocks hard!

    Life on Display is just what everyone who likes gret lyrics and that sound of ROCK needs! It's great album, if you don't like it when you first time listen to it, listen to it second time and don't be so negative about it! there must be atleast one song for everyone! For me there's 13 songs.

  1. Third-rate grunge retreads stuffed with overdriven guitars and generic rock-dude melancholia.
  2. Fails to whip up much excitement.
