A mature sound approach from a representative of 90s American indie rock.
This album marks the band's musical development in the latter stages of their career, transitioning from their early power pop influences to a more complex and introspective style. While retaining their melodic sensibility, the album has improved the literary quality of the lyrics and the diversity of the arrangements. As a representative work that shows the maturity of the 90s alternative rock scene, it occupies an important place in the history of the genre's development.
