Missed this thread the first go-round but I'm definitely loving the new album. I'm praying they play here live sometime soon because they look like they put on a kick ass rock and roll show.

I Don't Wanna Hear It has been on repeat for days.

I love the little guitar solos in most of these tunes. They're not bombastic and incessant and they're kick ass enough and end early enough that it just leaves you wanting more and more.

Wish I was a better lead guitarist. C'est la vie.

I like this album. At times reminiscent of Jim Jones Revue, which is a good thing.

I hear a bit of this, and think that it has to do with Rads' love and Dump's hate. I'm not big in that Jim Jones, but this is my #1 right now.

To me it is at times reminiscent of Aerosmith and I mean that in a bad way.

But still, plenty of redeeming moments too: I'm firmly 50/50

I tried again, but I'm out on this one.

The new album is my new best friend. It's the first thing I go for when I wanna put some tunes on. Great record.

LOVE Hail Mega Boys too.

You and me both. I think this is the only 2010 album I've heard that crossed the barrier of meh into actively dislike. I guess I shouldn't be surprised seeing the Jim Jones comparison now above. I disliked that album too.
