Not too bad!! This album has it's moments!! The vocalist on this album is great!!! This album is much like some of the 80's albums from KISS!! Time Ain't Runnin Out is an awesome song!! The rest of the songs rock, but are average!!! 7 on the scale of 1 to 10!!!!

I agree with SHAG. Tod and Ace shared vocal responsibilities on this cd, but I like Tods voice better. He also has worked with Cheap Trick in the past.

What happened? This is much worse than the first album. Ace's tracks are dull(except for Insane), and Todd's Journey-like vocals don't match the band, pulling it into AOR territory at times.

Insane...what a cool video that was with all of those yummy nurses...also the best track on the CD...I much preferred the debut album over this one

This was an awkward mixture of Ace's hard rock roots and Tod Howarth's AOR moments. They are both good at what they do respectively, but because of it, the album is stuck in neutral. "Insane" and "Dancin' With Danger" are the highlights of Ace's stuff. Tod's vocal ability shines on the album. "Time Ain't Running Out", "New Kind Of Lover" and "Fallen Angel" are just a few of his gems on this lackluster disc, which some admitted was rushed and it showed.

The first time i heard this CD I didn't like it. I returned to it and tried again - this time I loved it. It is certainly the most 80s sounding of the 3 Ace studio albums from the 80s, due to Todd Howarth's influence. Insane and Juvenile Deliquent are like the first album. Separate is poor, due to the rapping in it. The rest of the album takes one or 2 listns to get to know, but I do think this is still great stuff. Todd Howarth has a fantastic voice. A solid effort - 8/10

The album should've been titled "The Tod Howarth Project". Ace seems quite content to let someone else do all the heavy lifting here, (Tod wrote most of the songs, sang most of the vocals), and the inane solos are tacked on as an afterthought. Worst of all, the hard rock overtones of the debut are almost completely buried under maddeningly thick layers of AOR drivel. This is truly an album only Mrs. Howarth could love. (And she only listens to it when her son comes over...)

I tend to respectfully disagree. I think Frehley`s Comet lost a dimension to the band when Tod Howarth left. Frehley/Howarth had two distict styles that drove some let`s say competition and fire between them that showed brilliantly on all three of their efforts. Frehley`s Comet took a down spin and massive band member changes once Howarth left. It was quite evident when Frehley released a lame "Do Ya" ELO cover on his next album.

Great album. Much better than the first one. It has a nice mix of Tod's AOR tracks and Ace's classic hard rockers. Time Ain't Runnin' Out, Dancin' With Danger, Juvenile Delinquent, Fallen Angel and of course the brilliant It's Over Now are very very enjoyable. This is an album you can just listen to again and again.

Damn cool album.perfect balance between AOR songs by howarth and the classic rock side(but 80s soundin)of ace songs.some fillers but it rocks,contains some AOR gems!
