Alternative PressNoisy pop-punk that's bratty with pogoing entitlement. [Apr 2005, p.124]
-
“Meltdown” is a sturdy, well-written and (perpetually adolescent lyrics aside) mature addition to Ash’s enduring and near-essential canon – ample reward for ten years’ loyal support.
-
A surprisingly strong and assured record.
-
A below par effort by their high standards.
-
Entertainment WeeklyMeltdown gets stuck in a hard-rock rut. [11 Mar 2005, p.104]
-
Ultimately, Meltdown isn’t as dramatic a failure as its title seems to be begging me to pronounce it--in fact it isn’t really a failure at all. It’s just a crucial dip in momentum.
