Rap groups? Sure. Industrial bands? OK. Gov't Mule? NO!!!!!! There are certain type of music that are just made to be remixed and southern rock/blues is not one of them. They even took live performances and removed the audience. Why? I love the Mule but I'm trading this one in! A wise man once said, "If it ain't broke, don't remix it!"
This is by far the best record of 2007. It mixes down's mastery of the guitar riff and great song writing and comes out with something amazing. I do miss Phil's growl as it is not as prominent on this however his soulful singing is very good. Unfortunatly this isn't as good as NOLA or Down II but even a "bad" Down CD is better than most band's best CDs. Buy it and join the Brotherhood of Eternal Sleep!
What's great about it: great mix of bluesy slow and trudging metal riffs
What's not so great: phil's vocals are a little lite
