Outta Sight/Outta Mind is not an album that you can discuss in measured tones whilst tending to your beard. It is an album that will only cause mass hysteria and blood clots and burst forth Kundalini from the base of your spine like some auto-massage chair plugged into the wrong transformer while you holler wheeeeaaauurgh!! and finally slump down into a wet pile of exhaustion.

UncutA less full-tilt affair than their first effort... but no less fun. [Jul 2004, p.95]

BlenderThey are still greasy rock & rollers who know how to keep a party going. [Oct 2004, p.120]

Part of me likes that the Datsuns are 100% serious about doing their own thing, regardless of what the scene demands, but when their "thing" amounts to a heap of riffs leftover from the Carter administration, I can't get that excited.

Alternative PressAmount[s] to little more than a facsimile of their forefathers. [Nov 2004, p.149]

They seem like a garden-variety hard rock band, one that would have been generic and forgettable in 1974, and one that is generic and forgettable in 2004.
