I am told by this site that I am a generous reviewer. I cannot be generous here. I think hair metal is not for me.

Sure the songs are kind of all similar, but it's a wonderfully soothing listen nonetheless.

The only reason this didn't get 1 star is because of "Black Hole Sun," an oasis in a desert of grunge.

Want to basically hear Machine Head again, but with like half an hour of extra gratuitous solos? Have I got an album for you!

This would have gotten three stars, but "Sir Psycho Sexy" is so bad it is a one-star deduction on its own.

The three singles have transcended the overall corniness of this album and I actually liked "Wild in the Streets" but the rest is pretty awful.

As far as I'm concerned, this is THE grunge band and an incredible album.
