I'll never understand the people who claim that this was Sleater Kinney's finest hour. Don't get me wrong-- it's worth the price for "Joey Ramone" alone-- but the rough edges are can be as infuriating as they are endearing. Corin has yet to expand her vocal attack, the guitars are still searching for a unique vocabulary, the lyrics are a bit sophomoric, and the confident drumming of Janet Weiss is sadly absent. Nevertheless, DOCTOR'S passion and drive still draw blood. If you are a Sleater fan, you'll want to buy every album anyway, but newcomers should start with ALL HANDS or HOT ROCK for proof of the band's evolution. They just keep getting better!

I got this cd, not even a week ago now, and I can't not be listening to it. Even when I'm out to dinner with my friends, the songs are stuck in my head for hours on end. I wasn't sure that I would like it as I'm a devoted fan of The Hot Rock (don't buy the reviews that it's not a phenomenal album, it grows on you like ivy and takes over your entire being). I think at this point my roommate can sing along with me, and she does not enjoy SK to the point that I do. This album is pure heaven. period end of story. I dare you to listen to it and not fall in love.

1. Call the Doctor (An "Okay" song.).
2. Hubcap (I love this song. They did a really good job on they're high notes.).
3. Little Mouth (Corin is just screaming in this song.).
4. Anonymous (A very fun song. Nothing you wanna hear before you go to bed.).
5. Stay Where You Are (An nice song if you wanna hear all three of them sing.).
6. Good Things (I really like this song "It's A Dumb Song, But I'll Right It Anyway".).
7. I Wanna Be Your Joey Ramone (They screamed a lot in this one too "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah".).
8. Taking Me Home (This song is a very fun song.).
9. Taste Test (I like the really light voice"Where are you now?".).
10. My Stuff (I can never hear what they're saying "Leave me without a god without belief without a cause
without a path that I should take
without a choice that I should make
such an easy thought and now I had it but I lost it
I guess I need your help and now I
guess I need your help and now I" .).
11. I'm Not Waiting (This song is Okay. Not they're best, but who cares?).
12. Heart Attack (A really light song. Very nice sounding.).

Altogether it's an Okay album.
