TiffanyCJul 18, 2009I'm sooo not a fan of Van Halen or that genre of music...although I do respect it. I put this cd in after relentless begging from the bf...surprisingly it was good! Sounded a bit like VanHalen-esque but overall, pretty darn good. I've found myself jamming out more than once, without being prompted. Wink.

PAbrahamJul 28, 2009Very Zeppelinesque rock. If ur into old school hard rock you'll love this. If you're expecting something new or expecting something similar to satriani's solo stuff, you will be disappointed. I love this though.

JoeBJul 23, 2009Best rock album of 2009, hands down. Satriani smokes and Smith is a beast on drums. Put it on and turn it up LOUD!!

HiredG.Jul 11, 2009It's pretty much what you'd expect it would sound like from looking at the lineup. if your not a fan of their past works then this one isn't for you.

All this means is that Chickenfoot's big picture is roughly in place but the pieces don't quite fit, but that doesn't stop the group from trying to force it, with Sammy sounding as awkward singing about south-of-the-border drug runners as Satriani does spinning off complicated riffs on party rockers.
-
Co-produced by Andy Johns (Van Halen), the set captures the fun energy of a mind-blowing all-star jam: Satriani's fretwork is surprisingly raw, loose and gritty, while Smith channels John Bonham more than once.

'Avenida Revolution,' which concerns the Tijuana drug wars, is a tiresome slice of sub-Metallica rock. But more upbeat tracks like 'Sexy Little Thing' boast the kind of party-happy groove you might expect from a band whose frontman is almost as famous for ?tequila as music.
