Puddle Of Mudd - Famous - Geffen

Puddle Of Mudd are survivors. Coming out of a scene that has sense died they continue to churn out quality music. Bands like Saliva, POD, Disturbed and Drowning Pool released records to huge notoriety only to fade to rocks back burners while POM continues to be very creative. Famous comes out at a time when the music business in an upheaval and their success is hinged on what the record sounds like most bands these days. Famous is their third record and to me is their most solid effort. These eleven tracks represent the best of what they have created so far and will please their fans immensely. They seem to be looking in towards themselves with songs like Livin’ On Borrowed Time and Famous as well as creating commentary on the human condition with I’m So Sure and Psycho. The find a great balance between balladry and full on rock anthems with Famous and I am sure it will keep them Famous for years to come.
