Goo Goo Dolls - Something For The Rest Of Us

Rock
Something For The Rest Of Us

Goo Goo Dolls' ninth studio album was produced by Tim Palmer (U2, Pearl Jam, David Bowie) with additional production by Butch Vig (Green Day, Nirvana, Foo Fighters), John Fields (Paul Westerberg, Jimmy Eat World), and Goo Goo Dolls.
 
The result showcases more of the well-crafted songs and timeless lyrics that have been such an integral part of the Goo Goo Dolls’ continuing success. Written and recorded over the past couple of years, 'Something For The Rest Of Us' delivers another dose of emotionally charged, well-crafted rock songs such as 'Sweetest Lie', 'One Night', and 'Soldier'.

With his songwriting, frontman Johnny Rzeznik confronts some of the issues that have become part of many people’s everyday lives.
 
"I wanted some of the material on this album to address the disillusionment of the difficult period we live in; I wanted to give a voice to the emotional uncertainty that accompanies hard times," he says.

"So many people are struggling to keep it together through tough economic conditions and two wars that seem to have no end in sight. The ones who bear the brunt of these burdens are everyday people. That’s who I want to speak to."
