| | 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). |
