Americruiser

Americruiser is the second album by American alternative rock group Urge Overkill, released in 1990.

Critical reception

Trouser Press wrote: "Butch Vig's production of Americruiser ... cleans the sound up enough to reveal the thin strings, clunky tempos and weak hooks holding the songs together." Spin called the album "relentlessly hard and fast, but ... never murky." The Rough Guide to Rock wrote that "the songs had improved ... perhaps because they seemed less desperate to impress as comic narratives."
