The Onion, 2/95
Watershed's Twister has enough hooks and power-pop glory to do justice to the band's hard-rocking live show. But the fact that the band's major label introduced the band to the world with a live mini-album (1994's Three Chords and a Cloud of Dust-Live) should tell you something about Watershed's superior live skills.

Watershed - How Do You Feel

Columbus, Ohio-based band makes its major-label debut with a crispy produced rocker that is infused with stomping barroom energy and a juicy pop hook. Producer Frank Aversa has done an excellent job of fleshing out the chorus (which has delicious, retro-pop harmonies) to maximum effect, while maintaining a bally instrumental sound that could do the trick in sparking play from album rock and eventually Top 40 formats - given a little promotional TLC, of course.
