After wining the war, The Phantom of the Opera began promoting his new-age philosophies...
Peter is back again with his 90s rock band!
It starts off pretty rockin' with a song called Bad Attitude. Peter and Ace always seem to do well with songs where they reference their real life bad assery. Which is why Walk the Line also rocks, as it has the same sort of theme. The Truth is surprisingly pretty great as well. There's some generic stuff in here that is super forgettable, but then Good Times comes in and I totally dig that groove. Possibly sounds a bit nicer than the version on the Criss EP as well.
Blue Moon Over Brooklyn, however, is one of those songs where you think it could be better but for some reason just comes across as weak garbage. The smelly kind of garbage, too. Down with the Sun is a pretty cool instrumental and then we close off with that acoustic version of Beth I liked.
This was a surprisingly good album. Not the greatest thing ever, but certainly listenable. Or maybe I just forgot to take my medication today...
Highlights:
This album not being nearly as bad as I thought it would be
Lowlights:
Blue Moon Over Brooklyn, We Want You
Verdict = 3 Smoking Les Paul Guitars
