    Very good album. Fast, riveting music. Didn't care much for the lyrics. The vocal performance is good, though not on the same level of the music. My favorite tracks are "Dark Waltz", "Another Night", and "Settle Me Down".

    After the huge disappointment that their last record was, this one is is better to a degree. Harder hitting and more jammy. Still keeps the country punk theme going. What really hurts this album are the soft ballads that riddled their previous effort to it's early grave for me. At least there are less of the those here.

    Band's tend to progress in two different ways when it comes to rock music: either they keep getting more experimental or they keeping getting more streamlined and normal. The Men's slow transformation into what can only be described as a classic rock band has been a wild and crazy ride, to say the least. The maniacs that made 2011's Leave Home made this?!? With relaxing Tom Petty groovesBand's tend to progress in two different ways when it comes to rock music: either they keep getting more experimental or they keeping getting more streamlined and normal. The Men's slow transformation into what can only be described as a classic rock band has been a wild and crazy ride, to say the least. The maniacs that made 2011's Leave Home made this?!? With relaxing Tom Petty grooves like "Settle Me Down" and "Sleepless"? With the jangle pop Bryds style "Get What you Give" and the Springsteen E Street homage "Another Night"? I never would have though The Men were capable of pulling this off, and doing better than almost any other band this decade so far. To listen to Tomorrow's Hits (which they very well may be) is to be jolted back to the mid 1970's when rock n' roll was much more simple, and when you didn't have a care in the world. Don't worry though, it's still the same band you have always loved as proved by the wild "Pearly Gates". It's a near flawless record.… Expand

    Settle Me Down is an elegantly executed ballad and Dark Waltz evokes Creedence Clearwater Revival at their finest, but the unspectacular Another Night gets bogged down in sub-Springsteen-isms. [May 2014, p.115]

    An eight-song album that flounders too much in mid-tempo purgatory. [No. 107, p.55]

    Those who love the group for their approach to melodicism and big hooks will find a lot to love about Tomorrow’s Hits, but those who still long for the group’s noisier days will only be further repelled and forced to stick with their first two albums.
