Review - :
{$Puddle of Mudd}'s story is every struggling musician's dream come true: Armed with a fake backstage pass, frontman {$Wes Scantlin} snuck the band's demo to a {$Limp Bizkit} security guy at a show in their native Kansas City, and less than one year later finds his group's debut album the first release on {$Fred Durst}'s new label. Thankfully, {^Come Clean} sounds nothing like {$Limp Bizkit}, but {$Puddle of Mudd}'s {\aggro-rock} sound is indistinguishable from every other {$Alice in Chains}- and {$Tool}-influenced band to come along in the past few years. The opening, {&"Control,"} milks the loud/quiet formula that's been done to death since {$Nirvana}'s demise, but adds some interesting stop-time changes during the break, while the acoustic balladry of {&"Drift and Die"} sounds so familiar, {$Layne Staley} should get a portion of the songwriting royalties. In the end, this isn't a terrible debut album, but it doesn't really bring any original ideas to the {\nu-rock} table. And frankly, in today's already glutted {\metal} market, that's simply not good enough. [The U.K. release appends the unreleased {&"Abrasive,"} an acoustic version of {&"Control,"} plus the video for {&"Control."}] ~ Bret Love, All Music Guide
