Summary: Getting beter with Pro Tools
Comment: This is Todd's second effort with Pro Tools, Liars being the first. The recording technique is getting better, the drum sounds are way better. The songs are pretty good as well. Like Liars, this album grows on you with each listen. The songs will sound way better live just as Liars did. I would prefer real instruments as opposed to programmed drums and keyboard bass though. If you get the chance to catch a live show with a band, these songs will rock! Strong cuts; Afraid, Courage, My Weakness. Gun and Solo Pissing Contest are also fun!

Summary: Thankfully it's Todd
Comment: I'm still working my way into this album, but the Courage track is such pure, glorious, classic, instantly recognizable old-school Todd that it's worth the price of admission all by itself. At twice the price. And Strike, the AC/DC clone tune, is so much better than ANYTHING AC/DC ever did that it's a bonus. Buy this, if only for these two tunes. Hell, buy it if only for Courage.

Summary: Buy this album - unless you're chicken
Comment: Todd can do whatever he wants, and this time he wanted to make an album with leather balls. Todd used to complain that his generation was "just waiting to die - we'll swallow anything if it will just get us high". In his last album (Liars) he complained about dishonesty in politics, and life. His past songs have inspired people to think. This time, he's still complaining, but now he wants to inspire action. What better way to get people up off their couch - write songs that will make the listeners rush the stage. These songs have more big hooks than a Long John Silver convention (the pirate, not the seafood). Do you like great waves of power chords, great precise vocals, and great ideas? No? Well, buy this album anyway and maybe you will see what you're missing.

Summary: AWSOME!!!
Comment: As a long time Todd fan, seeing him reinvent himself over and over,this effort is a "Rock n Roll Masterpeice". For a 60 year old guy to be rocking like this is just AWSOME!
DON'T DELAY, BUY IT NOW AND ENJOY!

Summary: Tunes get stuck in yer head
Comment: I've listened to this about 5 times, now the tunes are stuck in my head.
Really good, rockin', lotsa variety. They even played "Strike" during Sunday Night Football... I bet most people thought it was AC/DC!
