The album was the band's major label debut.[1] Benmont Tench and Tommy Stinson contributed to the album.[2] "Come Undone" was a minor Billboard Mainstream Rock hit.[8]

Critical reception

Stereo Review wrote: "When you've got good songs, a great lead voice, and solid supporting players, you don't really need attitude, tattoos, and studio tomfoolery."[5] The Encyclopedia of Popular Music called the album "an excellent introduction to the group's relaxed, highly tuneful rock/pop fare."[4]
