Pretty disappointing entry in the Axe catalog. Easily their weakest CD. Go with the debut or "Offering" instead.

OK,this one is not as good as the other releases,but it`s not a bad one.There are a couple of good songs. 8\10

I think Axe can be an acquired taste, but for the already converted, this should easily fit into your collection. Where it will sit in relation to the band's back catalogue is yet to be decided. The album could have been longer, 2 or 3 more tracks would not have hurt, and it could have been a little edgier in the rock n roll department, but there are still some fine performances.

I Must be in the minority on this one ,as i thought this was a very strong release - maybe not as good as the earlier stuff, but not that far away from the excellent 'Five' release of a couple of years earlier. Anyway i hope that this is not the last we hear from this band, as they have always produced top class material over the last 20 odd years.

I just don' t feel alone with your opinion , Jez ! as I was told it was a bad bad Axe album .. but I finally bought it and even if I am a huge fan , I really enjoy this release !! it is not that far away from 'Five' and still I hope ( in 2005 ) this is not their last album .. Long live Axe !! very underrated band !!

I must admit I do not know anything about Axe and at the time of this release I knew Bonny Barth only through his link to the mighty Caught in the Act, so I thought I'd give this a go. It's unspectacular and seemingly uninspired hard rock, but it's well played and produced (Sound reminds me of Jaded Heart's 'IV' disc), but IMO there just aren't any great songs, just a bunch of decent ones.

Although this is by far not their best, it's still a quality release ! But if you want to hear the real GREAT Axe, check out their early releases ! What a band ! A shame you've never heard of 'em, Geoff ! This is a top act !!!

Not their strongest release but well worth having!!

I too wasn't as impressed with this one when it came out but I got yhe chance to see Axe live last July in San Antonio and they rocked. Supposedly they are going to record a new album for release late 2008 or early 2009. I hope it's as good as Axe V or their earlier stuff.
