  3. Negative: 1 out of 7
  1. They've got a rough, nervy, lo-fi take on power rock that has the weird immediacy of the Microphones' Mount Eerie.
  2. Powerful drum beats user along the sometimes-Jack White, sometimes-Mick Jones vocals, while the guitar croons expressively throughout these low-key, lo-fi songs. [Aug 2003, p.96]
  3. 20
    This batch of 11 half-baked songs is whiny, lifeless and not even close to stimulating. [#60, p.106]
