Before we start the review, lemme get my personal experiences with this album out. this album is one of my favorites, because from front to back it makes me feel great...they're amazing, in every way, shape, and form. No screaming, like you'd expect from a seventies hard rock band, and no Makeup. Now the review. The cd starts out different than most do, with it's slow songs first. speeds up towards the middle, and switches throughout the rest. Not a bad song on the album is to be heard, and it's plenty full, with 15 songs. I cant' neccesarily describe the album, but I do love it. I can't give it an 8 or a 9 though, as much as I"d like to, I think I can rate it a 7.8 safely...7.8 ~Armand
