Sweet 75 (1997)

EW's GRADE
C

Details Lead Performance: Sweet 75; Genre: Rock

Poor Krist Novoselic. It's bad enough that he had to spend the early '90s riffing in Kurt Cobain's shadow (as Nirvana's bassist), but now he's got to play catch-up with former bandmate David Grohl (already on his second big album with Foo Fighters). The self-titled Sweet 75 is no way to do it. Not only is Novoselic's first post-Nirvana outing a surprisingly tuneless affair, but he's saddled with a wail of a singer named Yva Las Vegas. Oh, please. C
