This album is easily my favorite of the three Shinedown releases. I really liked Leave a Whisper, I accepted Us and Them for what it was, but THIS…..THIS is what I hoped for from Shinedown. The musicianship, the lyrics, the passion with which they’re sung….it’s all here. And, the more I listen to it, the more I like it. If you even only partly liked Leave a Whisper, you will LOVE this album. I’ve not taken it out of the player since I got it, and I get bored with music pretty easily.

I missed them when they were on tour last time….and I’m not going to make that same mistake again.
