About This Album
Cheap Trick's influence was hard to miss in the 1980s, but unfortunately, Cheap Trick itself was hurting (both artistically and commercially) by the middle of the decade. After making a commercial comeback with 1988's Lap of Luxury, they entered the '90s with the less successful Busted. Although decent, this is far from one of Trick's strongest albums. Though slick pop-rock songs like "I Can't Understand It" and the single "Can't Stop Falling Into Love" are fairly enjoyable, most of the writing falls short of the type of cleverness one expects from this band. And the glossy power ballad "Wherever Would I Be" screams "corporate rock" in no uncertain terms. Only Trick's most devoted fans should acquire Busted -- more casual listeners would be much better off with In Color, Heaven Tonight or Woke Up With a Monster. ~ Alex Henderson, All Music Guide
