Great Album (apart from chick = trouble). "The Animal in me" is without a doubt the greatest song these guys have written/recorded.

Welcome Back Motley Crue!!

Fantastic full length album with original line up. Every song is worth a listen. A+

Great album, enough said.

After a couple of listens it has become my favorite album of the year so far. A fantastic return to form.

The best music they've made since Dr Feelgood!

The more i listen the more it has really grown on me.A good showing.next time NO OUTSIDE WRITERS!! It does have its classic moments and energy.Solos could be louder and longer.Overall a strong 8.The funny thing is this does kick the asses of most of the "current " bands i listen too.Thank god for the crue STILL carrying the rock torch.Stand out tracks SOLA,"Welcome to the machine",Going out swinging". But "Down at the whiskey" is a classic.… Expand

Good Effort.

No doubt Crue's best album since Dr. Feelgood. Mars kicks ass, Vinnie whines, Sixx sleazes and T-bone pounds the drums like the good 'ol days....

Album of the year. This album goes far beyond anything I thought the Crue could ever create. This album truly is art.

I have been a crue head since the early eighties. With that said the album brings back some of that sound...which is great.

Horrendus metal. Crue should stick with the best of albums from now on.

I grew up listening to the crue. This is the best they have done in almost 20 years. It's great to hear them play so well.

This album is absolutely great. I have listened to it over and over and there isn't one song I don't like. I'll take it anyday over the crap that's on the radio now. Who else can make you want to quit your job and kick someone's a-- at the same time? Go Crue!

It's the best thing they have done since Dr. Feelgood. Unfortunately that isn't saying a whole lot. It doesn't sound like their old stuff, it sounds like Nicki Sixx's new band Sixx A.M. It decent, but it's not the Motley Crue we all loved back in the 80's.

Best album of the year so far. Best Crue since Dr. Feelgood.

Been waiting for this album since Feelgood was released in '89. There isn't a bad song on it. I've listened to it at least twice a day since I bought it.

A fantastic piece of work by the Kings of Sleaze. SOLA has so many different elements to it that it's difficult not to appreciate each song for its own individualized style. "Face Down In The Dirt" explodes with raw punk/metal power. "What's It Gonna Take", although mid-tempo, is a journey through the early days when Motley first formed, and the band performs it with passion. "Down At The Whiskey"- beautiful guitar and drum work by Mars and Lee. Catchy, groove-laden, and melodic. "SOLO" is the arena anthem Crue fans have been waiting for. The riff blazes and has a very nice dark bass intro by Nikki - a pure sing a long delight. "MF Of The Year" - one of my absolute favs ever. Drips of attitude and sleaze and musically it's so tight and heavy. "Animal In Me" - another all time favorite. Lyrically brilliant and musically its very unique and has a style not heard by the Crue before. The sound is so heavy. "Welcome To The Machine" - fast & furious with a "Shout" like appeal. "Just Another Psycho" - not one of my favs but certain elements are appealing like Mars' guitar work and a catchy chorus. "Chicks=Trouble" - classic Crue sleaze with a killer riff by Mars and frenetic drumming by Lee. Lyrically it's nothin deep but considering the Crue's track record of debaunchery, it's fitting and fun to sing along to. "This Aint A Love Song" - another fav. Sleazy, dirty, grimy, hook-heavy, and should be a single at some point. "White Trash Circus" - punked out with a killer riff following the main chorus but overall not one of my personal favs. Has a Too Fast For Love influence to it. "Goin Out Swingin" - with the exception of the main chorus this track kills it with an all out assault of guitas, drums, bass, and vocal. Takes me back to the days of Shout. Overall I absolutely love this CD and it's the Crue I've been waiting to hear for over a decade. Mixed with so many different musical elements - rock, metal, punk, & glam it's hard to dislike it in any way. Plus, since it's a semi-concept album, the songs match perfectly with the story telling. My second favorite Crue album with Shout being my first.… Expand

Wow I was very surprised to found out that most of the Crue's hardcore fan base praised this album. For starters the 1st thing that sticks out when listening to this album is the horriable lyric content. Nikki what the hell happened? I have read that Motley brought in a bunch of bubblegum writers to help write the album but I find that hard to believe with Sixx being such a control freak but who ever wrote this garbage deservesthe Rick Astley life time achievment award. The Crue has found that filthy powerful sound that you can picture a naked girl sliding up and down a pole too but then ruin almost every track with cheesy lyrics like " I dont want to go to school" ( No shit Nikki your in your 50's why would you want to go to school?) on face down in the dirt and choreses like " were the white trash circus dont give a damm we'll steal your girl when ever we can ( have you lost your confidence in slaying chicks Nikki??) on white trash circus which give the album that Motley Crue meets a cracked out slutty Mother Goose feel.… Expand

Not their best, but pretty damn good album. A good album to follow up The Dirt!

Motley crue is my favorite band. this is not motley crue. i can't hear the gutars, and nothing of it speaks motley crue. it sounds like someone else wrote the guitar parts, cause it sure as hell doesn't sound like mick. i know the crue when i hear it. disappointed fan here.

This is a great album and in fact I think its the best they have done. No fillers and just great music to feed off of. This is the album that should of followed Dr. Feelgood. I hope they have more of this for us in the future. For now I will keep listening to the "Saints." If you don't like it you don't get it.

Good Crue CD. People expect too much from the Crue. Good fun rocking tunes. Not as "HARD" as some may want but all around good CD.

I would have never believed the Crue would come out with a release like this. It is just amazing. I have been a Crue fan since Too Fast For Love. I agree that the guitar lacks the sound of the early Crue, but I actually like it better. You know it's Crue when Vince gets going. It is fantastic, and my favorite Crue yet.

This Album speaks for a entire forgoten generation!
