Containing much less raspy vocals than any previous album, Dear You had received the radio-friendly polish that the previous albums had lacked. Many fans considered this a betrayal of Jawbreaker's previously raw sound, which was the final straw after opening many shows for Nirvana.

It also argues convincingly that the Dears have transcended their initial status as secondhand Brit-poppers, as surely as Blur left behind those nagging Oasis comparisons.
Sonically raw but melodically rich, the Dears confront the surface contradictions in their musical identity with a defiance that's no longer just skin deep.
The Dears have been together for some time now, but they gained a great deal of attention following their performance at 2004's South By Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, which culminated in the band appearing on a compilation CD given away with trade paper Music Week.
The Dears considered re-recording the entire thing - starting again where they had nine months before - but that would have meant the end of The Dears, having already lost two members earlier that year.
The Dears were squeezed into the already-booked studio in overnight sessions and for eight days straight, from midnight until early afternoon, The Dears mixed their record.
