 Amazon.com: Mad Season [ENHANCED]: Music   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Evidence that it's happened to matchbox twenty can be found in the new, spelled-out format of their all-lowercased name and the pretentious insertion of that name into the title of this, their sophomore set.
To their credit, the Orlando quintet puts their massive popularity on the line by opting mostly for the latter course: there are no obvious retreads here of earlier hits such as "Push," "3 a.m.," and "Real World"--or of "Smooth," the multiple-Grammy-winning Santana hit penned and sung by matchbox frontman Rob Thomas.
Call this just another "second album" or pigeonhole it under the "Sophomore jinx" if you wish, but to be quite frank "Mad Season" is one of the coolest darn albums I have EVER heard in my life.
