CD DetailsSynopsis
Amazon.com Sugar is the cure-all for your rock & roll blahs. The follow-up to 1997's platinum-selling Lemon Parade shows that the Los Angeles trio Tonic has taken a big step forward. Here they've forged a sound that's memorable and timeless, thanks to stellar songwriting matched by equally fine instrumentation and vocals. There's nary a bad song on this self-produced, self-assured 13-song collection. The more upbeat fare, including "Future Says Run," is open, catchy, and forceful. Ballads, such as "Waiting for the Light," are instantly appealing and beautiful without being sappy. Nearly all of Sugar's tunes have that hauntingly familiar feel. With the exception of "Jump Jimmy," which is redolent of the Tubes' "She's a Beauty," they're fresh, honest, buoyant, and gladdening. Here, at least, high doses of Sugar are beneficial to your psyche. --Katherine Turman Similar CDs

Member CD Reviews Drew V. from POWNAL, ME Reviewed on 5/21/2007... UPC #323592070000  Jessica T. (jessicatok) from LINCOLN, NE Reviewed on 4/23/2007... My favorite Tonic album. All the tracks are worth listening to, which is a surprise for most modern-rock albums. If you own any of the Tonic albums, own this one. It's a more polished, straight-up rock album than their first, Lemon Parade. "Mean to Me" and "You Wanted More" were the radio hits, but "Knock Down Walls" is still one of my favorite tracks.
CD ReviewsOne of my favorite albums EVER. A Slam Dunk Good Listener | USA | 08/17/2006 (5 out of 5 stars) "This cd didn't leave my cd player for nearly a year. Every single song is solid as a rock. And not one of them sounds the same as the next. Stand out for me is the title track. You know how there are always songs you skip over on cds? Not on this one. Would buy it again and again. Miss you, Tonic." One of the best albums of the '90s Dogman66 | Melbourne, Australia | 05/04/2005 (5 out of 5 stars) "Sugar is one of the great records of the '90s, in fact its in my personal top ten. The rock songs are instantly catchy and the ballads have a quiet depth lyrically and musically. The overall quality of the songwriting is outstanding. Their previous album was uneven with some rock'n'roll highpoints, 'Sugar' is all quality. The followup to 'Sugar' is 'Head on Straight', while not quite as smooth as 'Sugar' it too is a worthy addition to any rock and roll record collection."
