I agree. Very very bad album and it doesnt sound like KING KOBRA at all. One of the worse releases from 2001. Donīt spend money on this release because it will hurt you like it did to me.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS !!!!!!!!!!!!! CRAP I LIKED THE TITLE CUT

From: Tony	Date: December 4, 2003 at 22:29
A few good riffs here and there and some alright minor league tunes but that's it. Should never have been named a King Kobra album although the best tunes are the two old demos with the original members. I find it hard to believe the musicians here put their heart and soul into this project as there is no spark at all. NOTHING to do with King Kobra except in name alone!!!!!

These guys are duts!! The cd is very good!!! sound like the oldies hard rock from early 90's! Great vocals!!! Remember guys... it's a 2001 release!

From: Rene	Date: December 13, 2003 at 12:36
Yes, we remember, its a 2001 release but its a 80s band and their fans are from the 80s or 80s maniacs thats why if a 80s band make a comeback they have to sound like the 80s if not, the 80s fans will say:FUCK OFF.

Mola muchisimo...lo que queda de aquellos Bullet Boys....y como recuerdan al David Lee Roth.Si alguien quiere cambiar CD que escriba a pardao27@hotmail.com

Yeah, this is not very good. I gave it a few listenings to be fair. Sloppy at times and not very memorable. Even the re-working of Ready to strike sounds rough. The two Mark Free tracks are pretty good.

From: Rycheage	Date: October 6, 2004 at 12:07
This is near-perfect crap and proof positive that the King Kobra moniker never should've been resurrected. Steer clear of this one even if you get it free.

When i heard that Kelly Keeling of Baton rouge fame was singing for this disc i was soooooo stoked! Alas when i brought it home n cranked it...i almost gagged!!! What a horrific album...if ya see it coming ur way.move FAST!!!!!

From: Nick C	Date: January 28, 2005 at 18:47
Pants! I bought this for Ģ3 in a bargain box and the bloke must've been pissing himself when I left the shop! The demo tracks are good enuff but the rest....yuk!!!! Dull dull desperately dull! I burned the demos onto CDR and binned the original CD (who but an idiot like me would buy it!) ...it was taking up space and seriously damaging my collection.

unfortunately this is thrash... King kobra's thrash

From: jeff	Date: March 24, 2005 at 6:19
this is real suck! save your money!

From: CMGio	Date: April 10, 2010 at 17:58
I love King Kobra, but this is just... weak.

From: Eva Galli	Date: November 20, 2010 at 1:03
Where is Mark Free?, No Mark - No King Kobra

From: rick kerch vzla	Date: January 8, 2013 at 18:28
Shamely i'm in total agreement with the bad comments above,this ain't the real KK that we loved to death ...the only songs that are cool ones are the last 3 ones ("Ready To Strike","Take It Off" & "Here Comes The Night")...tracks 6,7 & 8 are ok but really into the alternative crappy sound...65/100

God, how could they call this garbage King Kobra? Only tracks 5 and 8 - two nice melodic rock songs - and the two demos - sang by Mark Free and recorded with the original line-up in the 80's - are worth listening. The rest is pure garbage. Damn, even Kelly Kelling is completey lost here. Why won't they release an album with the qualities of the first two instead of releasing a sh*tty one that nobody will like?

From: titothetitan	Date: May 15, 2019 at 9:08
...and even the re-recording of 'Ready to Strike' sounds dreadful.

From: hair metal again	Date: July 19, 2019 at 10:38
pretty good release for KING KOBRA performing hard rock music in a more complicated approach and with Kelly s vocal lines not being raw and energetic but more mellow and deep!you ll probably need a few spins to get into it and find some interesting moments and hooks but not anything blowminding!"hollywood trash","do it","freedom" are fine songs

From: 123charpenay	Date: July 19, 2019 at 12:08
i m agree with the majority of the comments.this album is weak and sound strange.in this ocean of mediocrity ,there is sometimes some fine moments.but they are very rare.

From: titothetitan	Date: October 23, 2019 at 17:46
hair metal again, this is not Hard Rock in any shape of form. This is modern rock with a industrial/punkish production. There's no relationship with the previous albums whatsoever.
