If you never liked them, this album probably won't change your mind. But, for anyone already "down with the sickness" Asylum is quite possibly their best record to date. [21 Aug 2010, p.50]- Kerrang!

So while it's a typically polished affair, it is by no means lacking in genuine emotion. [4 Sep 2010, p.51]- Kerrang!

On Women And Children Last, the Murderdolls retain the same sense of big, dumb fun they had before, but this time around the more knowingly vicious elements makes it an even more invigorating ride. [14 Aug 2010, p.48]- Kerrang!

- Critic Score
The instrumental epics remain compelling, but, as a complete work, this is too enveloped in its diverse attempts to please everyone to truly wow anybody from start to finish. [21 Aug 2010 ,p.51]- Kerrang!

Order Of The Black will keep diehard Black Label Society fans happy, but it's still some way from being a truly classic release. [28 Aug 2010, p.53]- Kerrang!

These days, you sense, they'd rather have cheese and wine than kegs, coke and skipful of strippers. There are still some fine moments here, however. [31 Jul 2010, p.50]- Kerrang!

Not for those new to the band; interesting for those already acquainted. [31 Jul 2010, p.51]- Kerrang!

A compelling return from the godfather of goth-punk. [3 Jul 2010, p.51]- Kerrang!

It has one or two fine songs, A Song For A Son is probably Billy's best since Adore in 1998 but , decent though it is, it's not a Smashing Pumpkins record. [5 Jun 2010, p.50]- Kerrang!

- Critic Score
While Dave's guitars are still engaging, their spirit is undone by a lack of soul underneath. [28 Aug 2010, p.54]- Kerrang!

The Oracle sounds like it was written on autopilot, with the band ticking off the ingredients that made previous albums sell with out injecting any fire or imagination. [3 Jul 2010, p.51]- Kerrang!

On one hand, it's hard to take seriously, but there's something disarmingly sincere about the whole thing and it's carried off with expert skill. [26 Jun 2010, p.52]- Kerrang!
