This self-titled album brings back hardcore, straightforward rock.
This album is filled with powerful sounds and melodies that evoke the band's origins.
American rock band Cheap Trick released their self-titled album in 1997. The energetic performances and catchy melodies they've had since the '70s are still alive and well, and they've returned to their roots with a hard-hitting rock sound. The album embodies the band's strengths, combining light guitar riffs, Rick Nielsen's sharp phrasing, and Robin Zander's expansive vocals. While reminiscent of their past masterpieces, the album also incorporates '90s sound production, creating a dynamic feel that never feels dated.
