| I was never a big fan of Great White and this new one is an Average/ok Hardrock, too many songs that sounds dated, 70s and very laid back IMO. "All or Nothin" "I Don't Mind" "Loveless" are my faves. 7.5/10

| i've always been a fan of great white. and unlike their peers, imo, have not put out a bad cd.i like when they rock, but they can put out fine laid back tunes aswell. bluesy laid back rockers and ballads. great cd.

| I've got no beef with Great White. But I heard one of the new songs, came in on the middle of it, something about "that's how I roll," a nd thought it was some watered-down pop-country 'burb-billy music.

| I'm disappointed in this release after the excellent "Back To The Rhythm". A definite step back. Too many fillers and a ton of mellow tracks. One of my least favorite GW releases.

| Russell's vocals have never sounded smoother, but i do have to agree that i too am tiring from the overabundance of mellower tunes from Great White. I'm a huge fan of Sail Away, which had a great number of mellower tunes. The musicianship on this release is beyond reproach, but i'm still waiting for GW to rip my throat out again. 80/100

| This review is actually a bit hard for me, as I have been a huge fan of GW for years. I honestly think they are one of the best rock bands ever to set foot on stage. Anyone who's seen them perform live knows exactly what I'm talking about - even after 25 years, their live show will still punch you right in the mouth and make you beg for more. I've seen them open for a bunch of "bigger" bands who didn't have a prayer of even matching Great White's performance. That said, I admit I was a bit disappointed with this album, but have to say that the second time through it hooked me quite a bit more. Still, not the best of Great White by far, but pretty consistent with their last 2 studio releases. Like many, I wish GW would kick it up a few notches, but I'm just glad they are still out there making music - even relatively weak GW tunes are better than most of the crap out today, and Rising really only has a few weak tunes.

I just picked this up. No bad, but not great. Sort of feel like they should have added about 2-3 more songs. Also, a bit on the "too mellow" side. Go back and listen to your hard stuff guys and rip it again! We can take it.

| Have always been a fan - I expect average release from these guys, but this DISC is much better than average, its actually as good as anythign they delivered in the 80's. Much much better than their past few releases. Great return.

| Some good and bad comments above but in my case i just love this release...of course time changes in many aspects including Jack's singing.Anyway songs such as "I Don't Mind"(love the beat of the song!),"Loveless","It's Enough","Only You Can Do"(nice mellow song)and the Beatles-ish song "Let's Spend The Night Together" are worth listening.Great White is a band that has struggled with different incidents including a fire in a gig that killed one of his members but still strong enough to face the music with passion and honesty...90/100

| Hey Rick, just to let you know the song 'Lets spend the night together' isnt a Beatles-ish song, its a Rolling Stones-ish song seeing as its a cover of one of their tunes, and imo, differs very little from the original composition.

| Wow really guys....you need to retire after this one after putting out some really good songs years ago..this is the best you could do. I hate to be scathing of an artist but I could not even spend a dime for this release....your fans expect much better. 25/100

| Always some good tunes on any Great White album & this also has a few but not enough. "All or nuthin'" is a cool mid-paced rocker & personal favourite "Loveless" has a chorus you only need to hear once & it's in your brain. What's lacking is 2 or 3 harder rocking tracks that would vary the tempo & mix it up a little. I've always loved the seemingly effortless way these guys sing & play, compared to some other hard rock/metal bands who think you have to play at eleven on every song, but on this album they seem to have got stuck in that effortless groove & a "kick up the ass" is needed. Not their best but still better than most.

| I have been a Great White fan for a long time, was even fortunate enough to see them in a small club on the "Psycho City" tour. Incredible show. But THIS...ugh. Finally got around to checking this one out and I'm sorry I did. Halfway expect to hear Jimmy Buffet pipe in during some songs. They'd been through so much by this point I guess it's to be expected, but I for one don't think it measures up and I won't be playing it again.
