The Golden Age (Cracker Album)
''The Golden Age'' is the third studio album by American alternative rock band Cracker. It was released on April 2, 1996, by Virgin. Three singles were released from the album: "I Hate My Generation," "Nothing to Believe in," and "Sweet Thistle Pie." Critical reception The ''Los Angeles Times'' wrote: "Although irritatingly self-indulgent and arrogant at times, Lowery occasionally borders on brilliance. It’s possible that someone in the future will delve deeply into ''The Golden Age'' and find the portent of Sly Stone’s ''There’s a Riot Going On''. For now, the album just feels slightly uninspired." ''Alternative Rock'' called it "drily disappointing."
