I read the review...and it looks very much like a review where the reviewer wanted to give the album a given score and worked back to justify it....
"You're not an MC if someone else write your lines..."
Doesn't have to be, but it at least should not cringeworthy. And Mike's raps in this album are, lyrically, among the worst he has made. Step Up,...
It's not just bad, it's embarrassingly bad. Like if you were listening to it and someone would walk into the room and hear those lyrics they'd...
Man you just reminded me how terrible Mike's verses are in that song. Well if we're criticising the lyrics of the chorus than the verses deserve...
Those that say that the album did fine usually propose 2 excuses: the natural decline of album sales and the fact that this is a rock and heavy...
A bit late to reply to the responses of this not being the flop. I just did some googling around and when a band like the Avenged Sevenfold, which...
If it's more of a ALITS or Rebellion type of music then amazing. Even better, if it's anything like FM. On the other hand if it's bland like AFN...
Yep album is a flop. And there is no excuse around it. You can't claim rock albums don't sell because bands like Avenged Sevenfold (much heaver...
The Hunting Party. In fact the whole album cycle for the Hunting Party including the album.
I have to agree with Astat. There's something about the song that just grips you and from the moment Chester sings "Tearing me apart..." it just...

In the light! In the dark! Nothing left! Nothing right! Rinse and repeat. I liked the first half of the song but it seemed like they gave up...
Linkin Park prior to a release of a new album says a lot of things which they forget very quickly afterwards. Remember when LP was a quick...
Much better than "let me break this fucker down for ya/I really don't know ya". I'm not saying it's a masterpiece, just that it's better than THP...
Here's BTH, arguably quite an angsty song but written with lyrics that are actually smart about being angsty: "Memories consume Like opening the...
Can they even make a concept record? And I don't mean musically because they love to link up their songs anyway, but lyrically? Can they tell a...
If it was made up from those snippets you can be damn sure Mike would have mentioned it.
Satisfaction: FM, Rebellion blowing me away. Disappointment: I think my whole issue with the album and why it's disappointing for me can be summed...
The only thing this album has to do with war and anarchy is the name of the songs, really. The lyrics you quoted were really selectively...
