"All Shook Down trades in the old grievances of extended adolescence and re-seeds the ground with new resentments about adulthood. That terrain is trickier and slipperier. It is not so clear who your enemies are. It is not so clear that your enemies are not yourself."

Well said!

Maybe it's just because I discovered pop-Replacements before the punk, but I never saw the problems with this album, it's a natural progression and a natural end point.

From the sad food files, I’ve always liked Man Without Ties’ “Friday night frozen pizza thing.”
