  • Summary: The Welsh band self-produced this fourth studio album.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 3 out of 10
  2. Negative: 1 out of 10
  1. For fans, You Gotta Go... is just different enough from what came before to keep ears interested. For everyone else, this will seem like more of the same. [#5, p.103]
  2. It's neither exhilarating nor challenging, but it is a solid and energetic work, imbued with an unambiguous love of old-time rock.
  3. 30
    A mind numbing mix of unexciting midtempo rockers and smarmy ballads. [#23, p.101]

    A great album that includes lots of nice tunes and a few so-so ones. But the good songs make them up.

    Very underrated generally. There are some definite duds, but Getaway, Maybe Tomorrow and Climbing the Wall are great songs.
