Mad at the World is a wonderfully consistent band. Boomerang isn't groundbreaking or legendary but it's every bit as good as the last one, maybe a bit better. I do like the songs here as a whole better than the last as well. Randy Rose has also finally settled on his Jim Morrison/Danzig style which I've always liked. This also includes a rock version of "No More Innocence" which I think was on their debut.
Useless Fact: In a recent interview in Down the Line ezine Roger Rose questions whether or not he was clear enough on the satirical "Isn't Sex a Wonderful Thing?" He's a better man than I because if it was me I would have called my detractors idiots who would find themselves far more enlightened about the song if they would simply open their eyes and carefully read the lyrics. But like I said, Roger's a better man than me.
