    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. As perfect a slice of power pop that you will ever hear. Quite frankly it is "In another world" … Expand

    Cheap Trick fans will love the album! #20 Studio album amazing and it rocks with tight vocals. I was pleasantly surprised the band's still got it!

    The first 5 tracks are a firework of Cheap Trick power pop like fans can only wish for.
    Track 6 Final Days sounds like a Slade anthem and is this really a goodbye song?
    Track 7 So It Goes is a Beatles style ballad before Light Up the Fire continues to rock and roll but the remaining tracks add little more than standard Cheap Trick (not that this is a totally bad thing).

    In Another World displays the Tricksters cranking out another 45 minutes of crackling rock and roll that belies the members’ age, extensive backstory along with a work ethic doesn’t show any signs of slowing down now. Cheap Trick is a group too smart to quit.

    If In Another World doesn't quite feel like a classic Cheap Trick, blame that on the group's dogged adherence to their old blueprint; they follow it so closely that they don't allow room for adventure, mistake, or fashion. Maybe that means the album doesn't quite seem fresh, but it does hit its marks in a reliable, satisfying manner.

    Cheap Trick and others from their graduating class may be perfectly content to carry on as walking memes, but In Another World reminds us that this veteran rock act still has lifeblood coursing through its veins.
