I have been a minor fan of Saliva's music since Every Six Seconds was released, but it wasn't until I listened to this album that I found them playing to their full potential and actually living up to singer Josey Scott's sometimes egocentric lyrics. Survival has more definition than any of the band's previous work, with full-on rock excess lyrics and a shredding sound. Razor's Edge is a great gentle track, pairing Scott with the 3 Doors Down lead singer. The title-track is a rock-hard, triumphant anthem packed with humor and wit. With this new album, Saliva has surpassed all of their previous works as a whole, and have redefined themselves as party-hard rock revivalists, though they haven't strayed so far as to alienate any of their fans. Overall, Survival of the Sickest has the attitude and sound to put them back on the map amidst all the other rap-rock bands of today. Check this album out if you enjoyed the fierce and fiery title-track, as it is a fantastic representation of what the album has in store for all y'all headbangers. Viva la Revolution!

Found it to be great. An enjoyable album for any Saliva fans, new or old.
