The mere fact they've been able to come together to make an album as solid and coherent as Rise to Your Knees is little short of miraculous, but it pales in comparison to the Meat Puppets best music and suggests that they still have a ways to go before they're fully back in fighting shape.
-
Rise to Your Knees, the first album by reunited brothers Curt and Cris Kirkwood since 1995's misleading "No Joke!," is a subdued and psychedelic affair, where the guitars melt instead of fry.
-
Even without original drummer Derrick Bostrom, the Meat Puppets' magic is evident. The focused, yet relaxed, music throughout this album is among the best the band has ever made.
