3.4 - Here Courtney Love tries to transform into a pop starlet, something like Avril Lavigne's freakier older sister. Mostly these are forgettable anthems with big hooks and processed guitar arrangements, that are not quite radio-ready (besides the glitzy title track). She detours from that mold, unbaring her soul on "Northern Star" - an overworked facsimile of her "Live Through This" heyday. Overall, it's worth a single listen to understand Love's trajectory as an artist, but certainly not something I'll revisit.
