I have all of Harem Scarem's cds and this is kind of tired and forced. Seems like they've explored some of these avenues before and there's not enough enough guitar work, which is a shame 'cause Pete Lesperence is really brutal. To me, the fizzle started a few cds back. The backing vocals are too low in the mix. Another real calling card for HS. Maybe I'm still looking for another "Mood Swings". The band seems to have lost their attitude.
