It's got three very good songs on it. Then like two other maybe-good songs. The rest are mediocre.
People here gotta stop giving Myles a free pass.
Or we have, you know, different opinions to you.
Different opinions are one thing, but some of the posts I'm seeing are indicative of people trying to convince themselves that they're liking what they really don't know what to feel at this point.
It's like the crowd who were trying to jam out to Show Me a Leader as AB was also trying to force that one into setlists. Eventually, everyone caught wind that it had a nice intro and that's it.
That's what this album feels like it has: remnants of good tracks, destroyed by mediocrity around it. Oh, and still too many layers of Myles upon Myles.
That being said, I maintain that there are still three very good songs on here:
- The Ides of March
- Worried Mind
- Love Rain Down
And yes, people will enjoy this material, I understand that. I also feel that if this was not Myles Kennedy or a member of Alter Bridge that the majority of songs on here wouldn't ever get a second listen.
