I absolutely loved the cd prior to this one so I had high expectations. I don't think it's as good. It still is a decent album but the bar had been set so high w/ the previous one. It's still alice in chains so you can't go wrong, but maybe preview before you buy...
This is a great dream theater cd. I admit I still wish Portnoy was in the group, but this album doesn't disappoint. I like it more than the first cd w/ Mangini. It sounds great and has really strong songs on it. Highly recommended.
I'm a big fan of protest the hero so was excited for this to come out. For some reason I'm just not able to get into it. I love their other cd's but this one disappointed me. I don't know if the change in group members affected them or what. Maybe it's just me as I've read a lot of really good reviews about this album.
I really like Periphery's last cd so was excited to get this new EP. It did not disappoint. I really like the proggier side of Periphery so this was well suited for my taste. If you preferred the sound/style of the 1st cd you may want to preview before buying, but I say give the new stuff a chance.
I never really considered myself a black metal fan or whatever sub-genre these guys fall in, but something about this caught my ear. I decided to buy the cd and have really enjoyed it. Even though it's an extreme metal album, it has a very artistic edge to it. I really dig this cd and am glad I bought it.
I have to admit my review is probably biased because I really like Zakk and his guitar playing. This is another fun and rocking album. Nothing really different here, but that's ok. If you are a Zakk and BLS fan, check it out.
I'm not a Jack White expert or super fan like some people but I do like his music. I really enjoy this cd and think it's another really good album. If you like his other stuff I'm sure you will enjoy this as well.
I'm a big mastodon fan so I like all of their albums. I wouldn't rank this as one of their best, but it's still a good cd. If you only like the really heavy older stuff you should probably preview before buying, but if you like the recent albums you will probably enjoy this cd.
I'm not really a big country music fan but I love hearing awesome guitar playing. Brad always plays/sounds great and there's a lot of upbeat stuff here bordering more towards rock and a little less country. If you like that type of sound you should check this out.
This album is good and I do like it, I just miss the heaviness of some of their other albums. If you are more into prog and less into the metal aspect you will probably really enjoy this album. Fans of the heavier stuff may want to give it a listen before buying.
