  Music: Spiderbait - Tonight Alright [varsity.co.nz]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
“Tonight Alright” is straight-ahead rock and roll for the most part, and it seems Spiderbait have eschewed the power-pop of their previous efforts for something a little edgier and more abrasive.
Put this down, perhaps, to the fact that the album was recorded in California under the production talents of Sylvia Massy, who has also worked with Tool, Prince and Powerman 5000 and so has something of a track record in harnessing raw musical creativity and energy into a slightly more finely-tuned and articulate package.
And that’s just what Tonight Alright is. It’s the sound of a band that unashamedly want to rock, even if the 12 tracks do span only 36 minutes.

 The Music Box: Spiderbait - Tonight Alright (Album Review)
With the exception of an excellent cover of Leadbelly’s Black Betty, Spiderbait’s Tonight Alright is an inauspicious outing that fuses hard rock with a punk aesthetic.
Sure, the sonic energy that the Australian three-piece throws at the listener is interesting, and its alternating mix of male and female vocals keeps the collection from becoming tiresome.
At a mere 36 minutes in length, Tonight Alright is short, even by punk rock standards, but its three-chord alternations are entirely predictable.

 FasterLouder.com.au: Music Reviews: Spiderbait - Tonight Alright   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
And, given the circumstances of their beginning, the great thing about the band - more than a decade after their inception, is that the thing that makes them beloved across the nation is still intact.
Their enthusiasm for letting loose and playing remains intact, and seems even stronger on Tonight Alright than it has ever before - and perhaps it's because they've quit, for the moment, the electronic excursions that marked The Flight Of Wally Funk.
Tonight Alright seems to be the result of them embracing that cohesiveness and laying it straight to tape.

 Oregon Music Guide - Volume II, Number 16 - Spiderbait - Tonight Alright
The band's simple song writing approach, along with a healthy mix of female and male vocals and an almost industrial guitar sound, brings a fresh breath into the genre.
The studio offered a stage in a venue that is similar to many small rock clubs across the U.S., and allowed the band to bring the fuel and energy of its live show to a studio album.
The first few listens generate a "what the hell..." due to the strange approach to the song but, after that, the excellent reworking of the song kicks in and leaves the listener hitting the back button the check it out again and again.

 Spiderbait: Tonight Alright - PopMatters Music Review
A few days later, what should arrive in my mailbox but Tonight Alright, the stateside debut from one of Australia's more popular garage trios, Spiderbait, and yes, it's on par with the tunes on the anthology.
Tonight Alright charges out of the gate with "Take Me Back", all muscular drums, buzzsaw guitars, and straightforward lyrics like "take me back to the city again" (lyrical introspection is not the band's forte).
Janet English sings lead on five of Tonight Alright's dozen tracks, and hell if they're not the best five songs on the album (just as her vocal turns were the highlights of the band's last album, 2000's Grand Slam).

 Review: Spiderbait - Tonight Alright - Film Junk
In fact, no one song on “Tonight Alright” can be taken as indicative of their trademark sound because they seem to wander all over the place.
How they can manage to be both repetitive and unfocused on the same album is a bit puzzling to me. The album’s closer “Picky” again adds more variety and less cohesion by playing out on an unexpected mellow groove.
Tonight, Alright is not a terrible album, but in an ocean of mediocre rock bands starving for attention it might as well be.

Now, video might have killed the radio star, but Spiderbait had no such problem cranking out a smoking fifth album, Tonight Alright, under her guidance.
Tonight Alright is a cracking 12-track set of killer riffs and machine-gun-deadly rhythms, underscored with the bands razor-sharp wit.
Spiderbaits plan with Tonight Alright was deceptively simple: get back to rockin basics and record what Kram likes to call as close to the band playing live without making a live record.

 the fix : music :Spiderbait Ð Tonight Alright   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Covering 'Black Betty' was a hell of a good move for this Aussie 3-piece and apart from getting them into the Top 20 it also heralded a move towards a heavier, dirtier sound and away from the pop rock schlock that they've lately become known for.
The best tracks are those featuring Kram's (male) vocals as Janet's tunes tend back towards the pop poop I mentioned earlier with the notable exception being the pretty swell 'Fucken Awesome'.
Favourite tune by a long lonely NSW road is 'Alright', a moody shit kicker with 'In This City', 'Picky' and 'Take Me Back' the proof that Spiderbait can rock the house with their own stuff too.

 Amazon.com: Tonight Alright: Music: Spiderbait   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
After having followed Spiderbait's musical evolution since their doing live gigs around Australia I have to say that this ablum, Tonight Alright, is their best.
'Tonight Alright' is pure, stripped down power punk that will not have you comparing it to some of the lifeless punk out there today.
The 'Black Betty' cover (blasted by most other reviewers) is not the high point, but an amusing one reminding me of the days when this song was popular amidst the other music that was trying to 'make its way in' to the masses (punk, new wave, etc).

 Spiderbait - Tonight Alright Review
The Aussie's new album is called Tonight Alright and they are out to turn a few heads.
It seems like the band is most comfortable going full tilt on tracks like "Put It Down" but the different styles do add some diversity to the band.
Tonight Alright might be too all over the place but Spiderbait manage to keep it somewhat cohesive.

 Splendid Magazine reviews Spiderbait: Tonight Alright
On first impressions alone, there are plenty of reasons to hate Spiderbait: (a) they're signed to a major without a certifiable US release under their belts, (a) they cover Ram Jam's "Black Betty", and (c) Tonight Alright looks like yet another cookie-cutter rock record.
But looks can be deceiving, and despite the pre-emptive strikes against it, Tonight Alright satisfies -- it's a screaming fl and scuzzy rock record, and far better than it has any right to be.
It is to 2004 what Black Rebel Motorcycle Club's eponymous debut was to 2002 -- a powerful mix of seething rock angst and avuncular, post-Radiohead weirdness, with amp dials cranked to eleven.

 Spiderbait, Tonight Alright - MusicCDReviews - www.smh.com.au
Their time in the spotlight may be over - probably to their relief - but Spiderbait have a reminder of what it was that made them one the most exciting bands of the mid-'90s.
Apart from a couple of tracks - the louche Picky and the semi-mellow Tonight - this is Kram shredding his throat and delivering Pixies-like hyper-powered melodies and Janet putting a little girl voice on top of noisy pop.
The cover of Black Betty isn't necessary, but it is undeniably an accurate rendition and sums up the level of fun that's back in Spiderbait, too.

 slant // magazine.com: Music Review - Spiderbait: Tonight Alright
But lest we accuse English, drummer/lead vocalist Mark Maher (alias Kram), and guitarist Damien Whity (alias Whitt) of jumping on the [insert latest rock revival] bandwagon or trying to cross-market themselves by jumping through genre hoops, Spiderbait have been shamelessly doing their indie-punk/pop thing since 1992's P'tangYangPipperBangUh!!
Each of the band's releases has been a stepping-stone, and Tonight Alright is no exception.
Most of the album capitalizes on the garage-rock formula that has become the critics' rage ("Take Me Back" and the metal-tinged "5th Set"), but, unfortunately, Spiderbait aren't able to fully transcend their influences—even if they do do it well.
