"This is my favorite c.d. It is so good. It is better than all the other Sebadoh albums because it is more raw and earthy. It provides a good mixture of loud songs to get angry to and soft songs that make you just mellow out. Anybody will love this c.d. Sebadoh is a great band and this album is their best in my opinion. If you like the band it's a must. And if you don't it's a must anyway. The more I listen to it the more I love it."
A very good CD

"I've never really been too big a fan of the Sebadoh. When I went through my early 90s sub-pop phase, I bought one of their albums at random (Bubble & Scrape), and although I liked it, I didn't think it was fantastic, and I thought (and still think) it goes on too long, so I never bought another. But a few days ago, I learned that the wherehouse music here was closing and discounting everything, so I went to see what they had. At 5.99, minus 20%, I figured this would be a good buy. Anyway, when I thought of Sebadoh before putting this in, I always thought immediately of Soul and Fire. Suffice it to say, track 1, Cry Sis, was a surprise. I managed to make it through, somehow, but I thought I'd have to just get B&S back out when I got home. But then, Brand New Love sounded like I remembered Sebadoh sounding, so I took it in and listened to it. Cry Sis was, the second time, not only better, but enjoyable. Brand New Love is the best song on the album, and maybe my favorite Sebadoh song, but the whole thing is good, and I believe, consistently good."
