    This is Mudvayne's best since EOATTC, and although Dead inside sucks, everything else seems like a throwback to the old! i have listened to nothing but this album since buying it. in fact, I'm listening to it right now, because i just can't get enough!

  1. There are some surprises on Mudvayne, like a surprisingly Slash-like guitar solo on "Closer" and the death metal intro to the Slipknot-esque "I Can't Wait," but too much of it is more of the same from the band and its genre.
  2. Bringing mellower, more melodic counterpoints to a core of nu-metal bombast makes Mudvayne’s fifth studio album at times sound clumsy.
  3. Mudvayne has by and large returned to what it does best (or at least do frequently) on its new self-titled album.
