Title: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: Bridge on November 20, 2012, 08:38:20 PM http://heavymetal.about.com/od/cdreviews/fr/Adler-Back-From-The-Dead-Review.htm?r=facebook (http://heavymetal.about.com/od/cdreviews/fr/Adler-Back-From-The-Dead-Review.htm?r=facebook)
The part about Steven not being the greatest drum technician is bullshit, but the review for the album itself is good! Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: metallex78 on November 21, 2012, 01:36:16 AM Quote Steven Adler has drunk the last chance saloon dry too many times to screw it up again. No longer a walking disaster area or warning about the perils of excess, Adler has made an album that isn?t only vastly superior to Chinese Democracy, but perhaps better than anything Slash has put out with Myles Kennedy. Yeah, it?s really that good. Wow... :o Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album!

Wow... :o So let me get this straight, this writer is suggesting that Adler's record is better than "Chinese" and also better than Slash's last record which also happens to be better than "Chinese"? So Adler>Slash>Chinese is that right? The real question is how many needles this guy and Steven have been sharing. That review is so stupid it hurts.

Post by: AxlReznor on November 22, 2012, 01:25:31 PM To be fair, it's a heavy metal website, and out of Chinese Democracy, Apocalyptic Love and Back From The Dead, it's only the last one that can even come close to being heavy metal.
As for me, it's nowhere near the complete disaster that I was expecting, but I won't be adding it to my record collection any time soon. Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: IzzyDutch on November 22, 2012, 01:50:09 PM Steven might not be a good drum technician, the man does know how to carry a groove... he'll get your feet tapping and his drum arrangements are always great - he doesn't use the 'standard' beats he makes them fit totally around the riff and his use of the cymbals is also pretty cool, original 8)
I had high hopes of this album after hearing 'The One That You Hated' and 'Waterfall', unfortunately for me the other tracks (except 'Your Diamonds) are a bit to modern / heavy metal sounding for me... didn't saw that one coming. I like the singers voice though and find it a pretty decent album, just not really my cup of tea. Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: Trist805 on November 27, 2012, 11:05:40 PM Bought the album and just listened to it. Gotta say it is pretty good. I am really digging the singer and the guitar players. Pretty good lyrics too. I like: Back From The Dead, Another Version of The Truth, The One That You Hated, Don't Ask, Waterfall, and Dead Wrong.

Isn't that what you do to bushes that need trimming? A similar technique to pruning, no doubt. :P Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: serp616 on November 29, 2012, 05:13:49 PM the album is actually pretty damn good!
alot heavier than anything i anticipated, wich was a pleasant surprise =D Title: Re: Positive review for Steven's new album! Post by: Bridge on December 02, 2012, 02:56:01 AM I just bought it on Amazon Mp3, and I was absolutely astonished how good it sounded. If they could get "Waterfall" on the radio, they could very well have a hit.
