Would be great to have another album. I’ve enjoyed the ones with Daxx Nielsen.

That was bad-assed!!! Great take on an oft-used riff, great vox (Zander is a true unicorn, 72 and still has the goods) and great production (love the stereo guitar riffing mid-way thru). Kudos to the kings of Power Pop!

Just listened to the album. Sounds a bit washed up, missing drive all over, maybe targeted for the older generation. Anyway, great to have something new. Waddaya think?

Listening to it for the second time right now.  For me it's like everything they've done since the awesome 1997 Red Ant album: one or two great songs, a handful more good ones, and a bunch I never need to hear again.  I'm glad they're still around and trying though.

"All Washed Up" was released on the 14th. Listening now and I like it. Zander is an alien. The voice persists. Unimaginable.

Who'd they get to play guitar? The only note on additional personnel is:

Other contributors: The album also includes contributions from Julian Raymond (production and backing vocals), Chris Lord-Alge (mixing), and Robin Taylor Zander and Robin-Sailor Zander (backing vocals, guitar). 

ETA: I liked it. Sounded like Cheap Trick to me.
