I certainly don't miss early Meat Puppets. Other than Up On The Sun, I'm a much bigger fan of their later stuff. I love the realy heavy sound and Curt's voice is great (although he still can't hold a note).

But I agree with Concrete Abutments (?), there's just nothing memorable on it. With all their previous albums, I'd be blown away by a few tracks on first listen. But after a few plays of Rise To Your Knees, I can't remember a single track. If MP released singles, I'd swear this was an album of b-sides.

I have to add, I'm the biggest MP fan. I've been buying their records for nearly 20 years (fuck me!), and I even loved the records without Chris, so I'm not doing a random MP bash. I'm just really disappointed.
