		And although Urge Overkill, even at this point in their career, were easier to follow than any of that crazy foreigner stuff (though far from embarrassingly simplistic, like their more recent Foreigner stuff), you might still find this album a bit hard to handle at first (weird production and all).
		This is the best album Urge Overkill ever did, period, from beginning to end.Nobody else sounded like this when it came out.
		Urge Overkill has like, 2 arcs to their career - first perfecting the sloppy blues-y rock which they did with Americruiser and then getting the whole "Neil Diamond Singing For Kiss" thing down which they did with this record.

		Chicago's Urge Overkill are a largely overlooked and misunderstood rock n' roll group.
		This is all too familiar to Urge, a band that spent about 6-7 years toiling in relative obscurity to work towards their irony filled rave up of rock stardom, only to gain fame and then sabotage themselves at the 12th hour through drug busts, band member infighting, and label indifference from Geffen records.
		In this day and age where they could be easily forgotten, it must be noted that Urge Overkill were ahead of their time, and their material deserves a legitimate listen with fresh ears.

		Wanneer Nirvana en Urge Overkill zich tijdens hun tournee in de buurt van Kansas City bevinden, komt iemand op het lumineuze idee om eens een bezoek te brengen aan de spookstad Stull.
		Natuurlijk hebben Urge Overkill en Nirvana in Stull een pact met de duivel gesloten dat zich tegen beide bands zal keren, in die zin wist de band heel goed wat hen te wachten stond als ze werkelijk hun dromen wilden waarmaken, de suggestie van satanische verleiding heeft een rock band nooit kwaad gedaan.
		Naast persoonlijke problemen (Urge Overkill noemen hem in een interview een middelmatige producer) zijn er voor Albini ook ideologische zondes begaan, alleen al het tekenen voor een major als Geffen is onverteerbaar maar in dit geval helemaal omdat Touch & Go nog een album te goed had van Urge Overkill.

	TrouserPress.com :: Urge Overkill
		Of far more profound cultural relevance to semioticians and hometown pals than open-eared music fans outside Chicago, conceptual super-poseurs Urge Overkill never let a serious or original musical thought get in the way of a flashy uniform, a swinging medallion, a styling hairdcut or other tropes of their camp-hip-cred '70s crud-rock pretensions.
		Successfully launched from Stull's stabilizing orbit, Saturation leads Urge Overkill into the real world, with more credible songs than they've ever seen in one place and a distinctive mainstream rock sound that doesn't simply force its cool down your throat.
		After that relative pinnacle, Urge took a calmer approach — more power pop than flaming rock — on Exit the Dragon, letting the Butchers soften the edges and trim away the gloss for a warm'n'fuzzy tube distortion frig.

		Opening with a straight cover of Neil Diamond [+]'s "Girl, You'll Be a Woman Soon" (which fits Urge Overkill [+]'s image perfectly), the EP is an atmospheric guitar workout.
		While "Stitches" is a salute to their punk roots, the most impressive moments come during the stylish kiss-off to indie-rock "Goodbye to Guyville" and "Stull," with its sly, laidback groove.
		As the richness of Stull proves, Urge's vision was too large for the independents, and it was time to move on.

		Urge, for what it’s worth, were also-rans in the ’90s major label/alt-rock swoop, but were also a steady third to the Smashing Pumpkins and Liz Phair city score.
		The fact Urge have been swatted had little in reality to do with their performance Saturday eve, yet in the grand picture it made all the difference.
		A band once intent on underlining the pathos of overgrown and irrelevant rock were faced with the spector of being an aging, irrelevant beast themselves, and responded sloppily — granted this was a street fest, so they were entitled to be drunk.

		There are a plenty of reasons to be skeptical of Urge, the new digital music service from MTV Networks and Windows Media that is, by default, Microsoft’s answer to iTunes.
		Urge has also innoculated itself against an early backlash by buying up some of the best bloggers on the internerd: its “Informer” columns, which break down along genre lines, are intended to function like a cross between a tip sheet and a podcast — a written column accompanied by a brief downloadable playlist.
		In addition to the bloggerazzi, Urge has retained Julianne Shepherd and Jon Caramanica, two respected freelancers (for Spin and the New York Times, respectively) to inform on R&B and country.
