This album sucked and was entirely uninteresting. All the negatives you mentioned left a bad taste in my mouth.

Love Richard on The Howard Stern show. His prank phone calls and song parodies are hilarious! It's great to see that he didn't give up his musical metal creativity. Not a bad album so far.

It's a grower, but nothing deserving a score higher than the one I gave it, really. If you enjoy Timmy's singing then it's a must-have, but otherwise... s'alright.

Overscored? Yes.

Still worth a listen? Yes.

My score? 77-80.

I'd give it a 50 or 60. It has lots of talented dudes but the songs sound like they weren't even trying and it's just a forgettable cheese metal fix.

Dude, "s'alright" isn't an 84/100. An 84/100 is fucking bad-ass.

I didn't give it 84/100. I think I was too generous, really, but it is fun enough whilst it lasts.

84 because it is really fucking good, it's just missing that final spurt to excellent.

+1. I'd much rather listen to some Wolf for my cheese metal fix.

Good review! Regardless what the story behind the band name may be, it still sucks hard. Music sounds great but feels pretty soulless after one through listen... who knows maybe its a grower

I'm surprised more people didnt like this. Its well produced, has a heavy feel to it with the pounding drums yet has a melodic flow to it. This is probably one of the few times I actually like the vocals of Ripper. Album is different sounding. Its not thrash, not power metal, not straight ahead heavy metal...speed metal?

Its not amazing or ground breaking, but its pretty damn good I thought.
