Apologies for the long absence. Have returned after a rather anticlimax of a world cup & kind of wish I hadn't left! Also I am currently working on my review of The Coral's new 'Butterfly House' album (half way through), the above track being only one of two personal highlights so far :I. Great song though!
EDIT: sorry guys, just realised posted this in the Metal section!

California band formed in 1999 out with their 5th album. Started as a metalcore band but have mellowed a tad. The former drifts in and out. New drummer on board as "The Rev" passed in December and some of his vocals are on here. Dream Theaters Mike Portnoy has taken over the sticks. Album had me on the edge as far as a passing grade. Liked some and hated some making it fall short for me.

Formed in Alaska in 1994, now calling Oregon home, out with their fifth album. Have opened for Primus, System Of A Down and Killswitch. Bands name is from a Jackie Chan movie. If you want my attention, don't yell/scream/growl at me. Although most of these vocals go back and forth between that and actual singing (chorus/verse), that attribute will seal it for me. There is one track where the chorus singer must have taken a break to gargle some more Drano, so that got my vote for the best. Rest is all yours metalheads.

A great Ozzy Osbourne solo song- one of the few I actually care for. Jake E Lee is a harshly underrated guitarist & the late Randy Castillo was a great drummer. It's weird how Ozzy had his brief staggered moments of brilliance like this throughout his mostly dismal solo career after Sabbath.

California band formed in 1995 out iwth their fifth album. First time hearing them for me. Founders claim a love of AC/DC and that shows on a few tracks, along with Aerosmith. Too much of a ripoff of those artists to be of interest to me. I did like a couple of tracks. Currently opening for Kiss on their tour. First single is the title track. wtf, the only two songs I like are the only two there is no clip for.
