I think I listened to Throwing Copper every single day in 1994/95. I loved that album. But this is absolute crap. What happened to them??

The most generic of the 90's alt-radio-rock. Thank you Live, for smoothly passing the torch along to Creed and Nickleback.

I don't know. Sounded a lot like bad R.E.M. to me.

Live got big out of the Chameleon Club here in Lancaster, PA. I've only seen them once, but I'm always amused to hear them and here's why. Ed Kowalczyk's father (also Ed Kowalczyk) was my high school newspaper advisor. His mother was a school secretary. I was at their wedding. I believe it was 1969. OK, that makes me old, just had to share that tidbit!

Absolutely agree with this sentiment. I love this song...despite the "drunk on your juices" lyric. Odd but then, this band, especially the lead singer is odd. This tune almost brings a tear to the eye...and then the whole "juices" thing ruins it.  Cheers, Tim |

It seems to be their MO though. With lines like "her placenta falls to the floor" from Lightning Crashes, the above line is actually a bit tamer. I love this album though. |

Egad, that's an awful line!!!!! Makes me cringe. I can't believe that first the song writer thought that it was good, and then that everyone else in the band agreed. |

hahaha! I was about to comment on that exact same lyric but saw your comment first. I agree completely. But I also don't like this band. |

Wow, truly pathetic if this is a pinnacle! I'd hate to hear their low points. |

Always kinda like this band.
But, saw them live about 10 years ago...and the guitarist for this band, shall we say, sucks. Guy couldn't play a lick to save his life. Same droning chords over and over.
Still, they write nice songs.

You know, I like Live so I probably shouldn't be complaining -- but this song is a little more Clear Channely than most of their stuff. . .

Mental Jewelry and Throwing Copper are both awesome, deep albums that are best heard real loud. Crankin! Very energetic. Have them both and love them.
Every album after that really sucks! This band went from really good to awful. Too bad. |
