"I must say that Antenna is growing on me, but I also
must say that...of all ZZ Top albums I've heard, this
one is the weakest. Pincushion is cool, but I prefer
the Sin-Pusher version on XXX. Antenna Head is fun...
but not in the great category. The CD, in my opinion,
has one fantastic track, and that is the song that could
save your life: Cover Your Rig...an ode to safe sex.
That song is excellent slow blues in the best ZZ tradition.
So I would recommend this CD to ZZ fanatics, just don't have too high hopes for it."

This is one of my favorite albums by ZZ Top

"Antenna has to be one of ZZ Tops, top five albums of all time and its one of my personal favorites. Billy Gibbons guitar is so amazing here, its better then usual. The songs are great in the ZZ Top fashion, and its not all 80's tchno and MTV friendly crap either, its just good old American rock and roll.Antenna has some powerful songs to work with. 'Antenna Head' being the best song on the album, its got a killer solo great feel and an all around great sound everything just fits together really well. It has to be one of the bands all time best songs, or at least in my openion anyways. 'Cherry Red' is annother great song, its one of the better tracks. Its has a really cool groove to it. Really nice. 'Pincushion' is a great song as well, and one of the best opening tracks I have ever heard. 'FuzzBox Voodoo' is a cool song and as you might have guessed Billy Gibbons uses a lot of FuzzBox in his guitar playing. The album ends with 'Deal Goin Down' and all I have to say is that is the perfect song to end the album.All the other songs on the album are great, well they are better then great but those are the songs you will be listening to over and over and ovevr again. Pick up this awsome album!"

"All I can say is that it is sold out, unavailable, where ever you try to find it. Even on the ZZ Top website. Some reviewers may say it is just so-so, old hat...but fans say otherwise."
