{"product_id":"pretenders-packed","title":"PACKED","description":"By 1990, the Pretenders had logged over a decade of touring and quite a few pop crossover hits. Certainly the band's sound matured, and there's a definite low-key veneer to the foursome's fifth release. PACKED! is heavy on the melodic ballads, but then few imbue a simple mellow rocker with the passion of Chrissy Hynde, and as a group who's seen its share of true tragedy, the songs never ring insincere in the slightest. Opening single (and modern rock hit) \"Never Do That\" pours a lifetime of loving into the sort of fluttering '50s-rock slow jam that's become the Pretenders' trademark. While they occasionally conjure up a more punk-friendly tune, as on the barroom blues brawlin' of \"No Guarantee,\" the overall feel is one of a warm lodge with corners both dusty-familiar and hidden-revelatory.","brand":"Pretenders","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44590505099497,"sku":"1UYYFD-TFRS-00","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/3523\/8633\/files\/pretenders-packed_3lMro.jpg?v=1758822590","url":"https:\/\/www.vibinvinyl.com\/products\/pretenders-packed","provider":"Vibin' Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
