Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but I have to say, I can't help but feel we have seriously lowered the bar for what we expect from Scott. I can understand that some people have different tastes but some of the comments on here..."best Scott has sounded since Purple!" "Art of Anarchy is better than Libertad and Self-Titled!"....it honestly sounds insane to me. I guess it's just difference of opinion, but I couldn't get through half this album without shutting it off. It sounds like Breaking Benjamin meets Adema. Granted, most of this comparison and my feeling towards the album comes from the music, not Scott, but it completely ruins the songs for me.
One bright spot, I think Black Rain is awesome. No doubt Bumblefoot has skills, they just don't seem on display here.
