Since We've Become Translucent does an almost unimaginably good job of adding heft, weight and, god I hate to say it, maturity to the garage idiom.
-
A consistently heady and visceral shot of classic Mudhoney: angry, fuzzy guitars, propulsive rhythms, and sarcastically-jaded lyrics.

MojoAmong their best. [Sep 2002, p.104]

The problem with Since Weve Become Translucent is that it doesnt measure up to the standards Mudhoney set with the undeniable gripping music they produced in their heyday.

This is the sound of Grunge Past, raised from the dead to parade its rigor-mortised corpse around for a few moments before returning to the grave. And it's kinda fun, but hardly bears a second listen.
