Based on reviews from other people, I'm about to hear the weakest material Overkill is capable of. My guess? It'll still be much better than the worst of Metallica, Megadeth or Slayer (Anthrax haven't had any less than solid albums from what I've heard, so far.)

This is pretty much what I expected: Not as great as their other albums I've heard, but still very enjoyable, mostly more groove oriented than normal, though the one really fast thrash song on it is pretty awesome.

I saw an interview with Scott Ian recently where he said this was their weakest album and that they had to rush it out, but so far it's been awesome, and I'm towards the end of it.

This one currently stands as somewhat of an anomaly, in that it's an excellent, just slightly below peak form Metallica album, buried between two of the absolute worst albums of all time. I remember being very excited when I first heard it, but now I kinda have to shake my head and wonder what the hell happened, both with this album after St. Anger, and then again with Lulu after this album.

Pretty much how I feel about it. :) Np: Though, the cover on Spotify is the updated, re-released one.

Awesome that you've been enjoying Anthrax, I personally feel that all of the Belladonna albums are of equal excellence.

Damn, this album has really grown on me. This album has some of Disturbed's most addicting riffs and hooks.

I expect nothing from this, based on how bad their last two albums went (from a chronological standpoint, I mean: Their last one I heard was Peace Sells, and it was great.) Two songs in and it's already better than Risk and The World Needs a Hero, but still not exactly inspiring.
Edit: Third track is actually awesome.... And I had to hear a crappy youtube version of it, because it happens to be the one song that's messed up on my downloaded version, just by comparing track times. What a fail!

^That album actually did end up being fairly solid overall. It and Endgame are their only two later albums I like so far, and now United Abominations is the only one I haven't heard.
I thought for sure I hadn't heard this one before, but I instantly recognized the title track (it's awesome, of course) so maybe I was wrong.
