I dug it, the first one on that radio show did sound a lot like he's ripping himself off (Or if you're Ozzy, ripping Ozzy off) with a very BATM sounding riff but I dig what I hear, probably gonna pick it up in January, hope he makes his way to the land of Salt and Honeys!
I was sooooo happy to hear that harmonic + behind the nut bend on Deceived similar to Thank God For the Bomb that I screamed "HELL YEAH" out loud. That sound is pure Jake and I'm happy to hear it again on a new song. So far I'm quite happy with what I'm hearing. It's not ground breaking and I'm glad it's not, it's pure Jake and it rocks!!
I dug, that apart from the BATM type riffing, not much of what I heard sounded like a full on 80's re-tread. Nothing against the 80's at all but it makes this release more appealing as a possibly, great rock record with no explicit genre to it.
I just thought maybe he wrote that song as a little statement regarding he probably wrote BATM and didn't get credit for it? I remember them making a comment about it on TMS when he was interviewed.
Ok listened to this now… I liked a lot of it! That riff to Slave was kick ass. To me they played the two weakest cuts on that radio show. Nice job, Jake!
