Official "A Different Kind of Truth" Album Review Thread

[rocknrolldork]

Maybe they will grow on me a bit more, but Stay Frosty just isn't doing it for me. Sounds almost like they wanted to renew Ice Cream Man and its 1, 4, 5 just falls flat. The entire solo section of Blood and Fire is great. Just not feeling the verse section. I know this song was written somewhere between 82 - 84 but the rhythm of the verses reminds me of the things that I didn't really care for from 1984 and hated from all of the cheesepuff years. Chinatown is my hands down fav. Bullethead and As Is kill too. Tons of aggression and attitude. Everyone will have their favs and everyone has different things they like about VH. But to me... VH is about the aggression and attitude of tunes like Mean Street, Romeo Delight, Sinners Swing, Atomic Punk, I'm the One, Loss of Control, etc...

The ONLY thing that pisses me off a little about this CD is that the handwritten Dave lyrics (very cool) are obviously not the final draft , so there are some missing bits which I'm having trouble deciphering. If that's the only issue with the album then

just got my copy -- came early from VH store! WOO HOO! Psyched does not even capture it - actually had to hold back tears at the mailbox - try explaining that to the babysitter and kids! Listening for 3rd or 4th time now. My fave keeps changing - definitely loving As Is, Bullethead, Honeybabysweetiedoll, TTWN, Frosty - aw shit, I can't narrow it down!!! Lovin reading the lyrics - too overwhelmed to write anything coherent now!!! I tried!

[Momshell]

Just had to post one from Bullethead - "my karma just ran over your dogma" - classic Dave!!!

[rockhead]

momshell, its like WACF and Fair Warning mixed together.Im wishin the VH site would update because i really want to buy ADKOT shirt, like the Walmart one.

[Momshell]

I hear you - better than anything I could've expected - amazing through headphones!!! Haven't seen the Walmart shirt, but at this point I'm ready to buy anything that says VH on it! Already got CD from VH store and preordered from itunes - also ordered Tattoo from New Zealand and US - by the time midnite comes I'll have 4 copies of Tattoo on my ipod!!

Stay Frost is a beast...when the band finally come in, it's like sex.
