Grabbed hold of this yesterday and listened through it a few times.
Not bad, not bad at all. Better than "Issues", most certainly on par with "Untouchables", but nowhere near the excellence of "Follow The Leader" and "Korn" though.
Nice to hear a reworking of a very old Korn song ('Alive') on the album, which is an improvement over the version found on numerous bootlegs. Oh, and the live Metallica cover of 'One' isn't bad either. :D
Other than that, it's standard Korn fare throughout. Good if you like that sort of thing, not likely to convert those who don't though.
Bleeders, where exactly did you "Grab hold of" the album?

Er, don't think I'm allowed to say due to the T&Cs mate.
Drop me an email ;)

Oops, sorry. :(
Three tracks in so far and i'm a bit :| so far. Guitars are OK but there seems more 'ARRGGGHHing" than usual. I really liked Untouchables and couldn't quite believe it was considered a flop.
Still only three tracks in, maybe it'll improve.
---------------------
What a dissapointment. I've all their previous albums and like each album on its own merits. I know Korn are not everyone's cup of tea but when they do it right they can combine heavy guitars with great vocals and a catchy melody but not one song on this album stuck out. Ironically i think the best track is prolly the single 'Did my time' and tbh i don't rate that much at all.
Perhaps it'll be a grower but it's certainly not as instantly gratifying as 'Untouchables'. Very patchy, monotonous and boring.

I liked "Right Now", "Counting On Me" and "Did My Time".
