"... finds the band harkening back to their 1994 debut ... even if that wasn’t their initial intention ... (on lead single Broke Down Stupid) the riffs are dizzying in their slog, like a drunk tethered to a stake, dragging himself through circles in the mud ... there are moments of what sound like redemption before guitar slides drop everything back into self-flagellation ... (a) killer track ..."
- Consequence of Sound
The Lower Side of Uptown showcases the louder and heavier side of Texas rock band the Toadies, with a collection of songs largely written in the studio and produced by the group's longtime associate, Chris "Frenchie" Smith.
"When we got to the studio with nothing more than a pile of riffs, what came out of the band was really loud and heavy music. So not only is this album louder than (2015’s) Heretics, I think it’s louder and heavier than the last couple Toadies albums."
