This is an album I've been waiting 18 years for. Finally about to stream it for the first time.

What's your favorites right now? I'm digging LITSB, Come Clean Dark Thing, and Lost To Me. I love this record.
I streamed it once yesterday front to back and I felt it was kind of an in between of American Thighs and Eight Arms To Hold You. Much better production quality than American Thighs, but not quite as slick and big sounding as Eight Arms.
I don't know the songs by their titles yet but I can say that a few of them hooked me instantly and I can tell that the rest will definitely grow on me as I listen more. I definitely plan on supporting the band and buying this on CD. It really is a nice record, one we've needed for a while. Lyrically this could be their best in terms of content, done from a more mature perspective I suppose.
My favorite part about this whole record is in listening to it you can tell this band hasn't lost a single step with their age. The girls' voices sound just as great as they did 20 years ago. The vocal harmonies are still super solid. Their voices were just made for each other. They still write rock music with squealing feedback and crunchy guitar riffs, just as you remember them. Being able to express to you all on this site how much these girls didn't disappoint me actually brings me a little joy, just because I think we all too often speak about let downs on this board; whether it be from camp Scott or camp STP. It's nice to feel really 100% satisfied with something for once. There are no "buts" with "Ghost Notes".
