Reviews"One of the last great modern hard rock records and something deceptively tuneful, groove-bitten, and even melancholic.", 5 stars out of 5 -- "RATED R leaps instantly out of its genre packet into a world where polka rhythms, free jazz and punk rock ramalama share airspace with repetitive Kraut-metal riffing...", 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...A strange, category-evading rock record, a mystery disc of gravity and low humor, of punk aggression and love-bead contentment....improving on the strengths of their first album and shooting into areas that you wouldn't expect...", Rated #1 in Nme's "Top 50 Albums of the Year"., 4 stars out of 5 - "...A revved-up jet engine of twisted Sabbath riffs and taut Krautrock rhythms...", "...They can really kick it like The Stooges did, like Black Flag, The MC5 and Nirvana....you can't help but be smitten...", Included in Q's "50 Best Albums of 2000"., 9 out of 10 - "...A heady mix of speed-addled punk rock, huge, sky-filling psychedelic majesty and sex-crazed black humor....It's just the best, most important rock album for years....The new rock royalty have come to claim their throne...", "...Continues to broaden their scope while introducing some experimental chutzpah to their sound....Fuzz guitar hero Josh Homme keeps listeners on their toes....successfully employing pop-flavored enhancements....markedly different from their debut...", "...Sublime....There's Sufficient Skronk'n'wail to Keep Your Bong Well-Stuffed...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "There's an almost mathematical precision to the freak-outs like 'Better Living Through Chemistry'.", 4 stars out of 5 - "...No mess. No fuss. Just 12 songs of good, solid rock. Rock with all the b.s. stripped away....100 per cent unapologetic metal...", "An 11-Step Guide to Hedonistic Heaven...", Ranked #47 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Making their unique sound -- as relentless as metal, as eerily groovy as Can -- one of the world's most envied.", Ranked #8 in Spin's "Top 20 Albums of the Year 2000" - "...Mysteriously beautiful, smartly stoopid psychedelic jams, complete with jet planes and monsters...", Included in Rolling Stone's "Top 50 Albums of 2000"., 4 Stars Out of 5-"...A Mighty Record....They May Well Have a Sleeper Hit on Their Hands..."
