    There's enough diversity in this album that something is bound to appeal to just about any fan of rock.
  2. Alternative Press

    Perfect major-label American alt-rock--slick, smart and serious enough without being somber to reach out to even the least emotionally confused people without scaring off the moody ones. [May 2002, p.94]

  3. Rolling Stone
    70
    A solid, expertly realized slice of alternative rock: smart, furious and concise; devoid of any hip-hop influences or electronica underpinnings; informed by punk but with an adolescent kind of lust for heavy-metal riffs.
  5. Pitchfork
    69
    An album that emerges as a solid, infectious effort, but eventually collapses under its own weight, unable to keep all its stylistic efforts coherent.
