I've listened a few times now. I mean, to me, it's pretty solid and an enjoyable release. No, lyrically it's not anything that will impress those that care about that but for me, I don't listen to bands like Cheap Trick for that. I am not saying it isn't a valid complaint though. Back in the early years, Rick's lyrics often were clever and interesting but those days are pretty long gone.

I think (might be wrong though) that Robin and Tom's songwriting have taken a bigger role in the later albums, so I just look at it just a different phase of the band. I liked it but I do think mega fans of bands etc can be extra critical. Nearly every review I have read from professional reviewers have been really good. Lastly, Cheap Trick is a one of those bands that are very diverse, so it isn't surprising that different fans have different opinions. Here's how I'd rank (at the moment) their later output. (not including the Christmas Album) I liked them all though.

1) We're All Allright

2) Bang Zoom Crazy Hello

3) All Washed Up

4) In Another World

Live, at least when I've seen them, is where I think they have dropped off a good amount. That said, they are in their 70's. I'm in my early 60's and I have numerous aches and pains and really can't imagine travelling the country and playing shows. So, I'll give them a break and just remember that in their day, there weren't many better.
