    this entire album feels like a mistake. I'm sorry but this meat loaf was overcooked and undercooked at the same time.

    Ultimately scuppered by too many leaden ballads and self-indulgent guest spots, this outing leaves the future looking very unclear once more for Meat Loaf and offers little to those who aren't already die-hard fans.

    If the songs don't quite deliver upon their promise, at least Crook's production and Meat Loaf's performance keep things interesting.

    It's "disappointing" only because it isn't dreadful in funnier, more interesting ways.
