It's hard not to see the title of as a bit of a jab at themselves. Twenty-two years and nine albums deep into their career, the alt-rock-era band has neither burned out nor faded away -- they've merely persisted, putting out records at a steady clip that only slowed in the 2010s, when they took six years to succeed 2009's with this record. The delay may have been the result of some lineup rejiggering -- they have a different drummer in , and takes over the group's historically unsteady position of lead guitarist -- and the new members invigorate and to return to their heavy, hooky roots. Most of the record pulsates to a fuzzy, primal beat, the lightness coming from the harmonies and melodies, the very things that have always been 's ace in the hole. Sometimes, they shake things up with a few old tricks -- the horns on "Am I Getting Through," a hint of gospel on "Without Me," a stately power ballad on "Memoirs of 2005" -- but the record is front-loaded with the kind of riffy rockers that always made the group a pleasure. Maybe it's a mere continuation, not a revival, but this heavy dose of straight-ahead hard rock makes one of 's best records yet. [ was released digitally and on CD.] ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
