A HUGE improvement to me for ONE reason only.......
I've waited years to have a Godsmack album with more than one or two lead guitar solos!
Other than that it's the same album they've put out for years. Godsmack is ALWAYS excellent workout music.

You know you're in trouble if that's the best thing you can say about a band.

Not sure why everyone hates on this band. They do what they do, and they do it well. No need to complicate things because it's simple, or it's the same style, or whatever.

This could get interesting.

I will be very dissapointed, to speak nothing of disillusionment, if this doesn't reach at least ten pages of quote-boxes-in-quote-boxes of point / counterpoint arguing the merits, or lack thereof, regarding this album.

I'll start Godsmack sucks. Now I'll let everyone play off of this.

Oh, I know!

It's not what they play, it's what they don't play.

Or something like that.

Haven't heard this band in years. Aren't they like Disturbed's mentally disabled little brother?

Which one?
The feeb that rides the special bus, has repeated the fifth grade three times and was recently sent home from school for setting his desk on fire, or the wall-eyed, chronically drooling idiot that spends his waking hours in the corner, alternately sniffing paint, wiping his boogers on the wall and jerking off in furrow-browed confusion?

They definitely do what they do, hence every song sounding the same. Not so sure about doing it well though. I guess it all depends on what you are looking for. I feel like they could probably release an album every 6 months though.

BTW, is there any band that you don't like?
