My review is titled what it is in tribute to Jimmy. This CD is everything I could have expected and more, especially after losing The Rev. I absolutely adore these boys, and respect them for doing what they are by putting this out and touring it. The CD is amazing, So Far Away, written by Synyster Gates is heartbreaking. And Fiction (with lyrics sung by Rev himself) will bring tears to your eyes.
What's great about it: Absolutely everything. Amazing lyrics, amazing guitaring.
I have heard a few songs from this CD...Almost Easy, Critical Acclaim, Scream, and A Little Piece Of Heaven. This is an amazing CD from what I've heard. The lead singers girlfriend Valary is back to doing her "demon-girly scream" on the track Scream. Synyster Gates and Zacky Vengeance are still doing their dueling solo's and are still guitar gods. And The Rev's drumming has gotten even faster and better. Also...The Rev SINGS. ^_^ Oh by the way...this is NOT Pop.
What's great about it: More mature, great guitaring, great drumming, singers voice has gotten better
What's not so great: Couple of country type songs but thats about it.
