Loved it! Great album
Amazing
I picked up this cd too. Great album. 🤘😎🤘
To me most first solo albums are more or less just hit or miss but mostly misss ❤ so to me this effort is better than most solo albums 🎉
Great job Mick! You’re getting great reviews overall,
Excelente álbum, comprare mi vinilo!
I like it alot heavy just good effort
Great album
The idea that this doesn't sound like Crue is not a bad thing. Motley hasn't exactly been making music that I have enjoyed for decades. Mick's album sounds very good compared to everything crue have done for a very long time. I was actually pleasantly surprised by the great singing and melodic nature of the songs. I think Paul Taylor's influence on the songs is pretty clear. He should have gone this route ten years ago. Maybe he'd have nailed down a solid lineup that could have done the big summer festivals and we could have had more Mars albums.
Looking forward to your review of INVINCIBLE SHIELD 🛡️when it’s released. 🔥🤘🔥
My favorite track so far is “ain’t going back” it really kicks ass. I recommend to everyone to try it.
We dont know if he really co-wrote the songs. Maybe he just put his name on the writing credits, something that happens a lot for royalties reasons because he is not known to be a song writer really but you never know. Nice review, will buy it even if i would have liked more a classic hard rock album and then it would feel more a Mars album. Thankssss.
That’s true and it does happen. But in this case I do think he wrote them. Just based on comments from interviews.
I was just turning 11 years old In 1983 when shout at the devil came out and they hands down became my favorite band and sure they have made me scratch my head a few times but I’ve always remained loyal and I love what they stood for and they really didn’t give a fuck lol. I think when a band is together for a long period of time they are always going to release stuff that people don’t like. That’s just the facts of staying around for a long time. I’ll always follow them but damn those first two albums are still just killer
Jacob Bunton was also the vocalist for Lynam, definitely a band worth checking out. Wish Corabi's tracks were also included on the album. After waiting so long for the release, I wish they would put a little bit more into the packaging to make it more user friendly.
I think this album is excellent. I had no intention to listen, but said what the heck. Right Side of Wrong is just fantastic. Loyal to the Lie and Ain’t Going Back are also excellent. Ray (as usual) kills on the drums, but the star is the singer, Jacob Burton. I listened to this ten more x and glad I did.
Very fair review-i feel the same way, thought it would be blues. But I did listen through and enjoyed it-just not what I expected. Maybe MICKS:AM would be a better title.
😂😂😂😂 yes good one!
It’s very modern sounding, but I like a lot of modern metal and hard rock do I’m good with that. It’s just surprising. I really dig the variety on this thing. That said, I don’t think every track meets the same standard. 7.5/10 for me.
I really want to know what bullshit prevented the Corabi tracks from being included.
I love that clear vinyl!
I HATE when they don’t put track listings on the back cover. I also hate how on vinyl records they almost make you guess which side is a and b. Have a good day. Thanks for the video.
Amen, lazy presentation. Put the tracks on the back insert not on the disc which is worthless when you're listening to the album! Also song LA Noir listed incorrectly as track 5 when it is obviously 10 and the last track. Not Mick's fault but get a better proofing and presentation process.
Agree. Hate the lack of track listing on the back
Killing Breed is my favorite song on this album.
How is this album?? I heard that one he released and I really liked it but I'm hearing a lot of negative feedback. What's your opinion???
Ok…. Now I’ve gotten to watch the video….
Let me preface by this is the beauty of the subjectivity over music. What is hated by one is lived by another.
The points that I don’t agree with is that from Day1 Mick has told us this wasn’t gonna be sounding anything like Motley. So from that point, that expectation fizzled away.
I love Mick’s playing on it. Every song has a solo, except the piano one if I remember correctly. I love the vocals. I am ok with the two singers, I’m glad he didn’t go different guest singer on each song.
Outside of that, keep listening to it. It will slot in my top20 for sure, but we still have what 10 months of releases to get through! Hah!!!
Getting ready to spin it again! 🤘🤘
Oh wait, gotta watch the Ace video first…. Which I thought that was a really good record, too.
I’m really enjoying the album. Similar to the 1994 album it has gotten better to me with each listen. I do wish that Corabi was the lead singer but I do like Jacob Bunton. Looking forward to as many albums that Mick can come up. He was the real musical talent from Motley.
How long have we been waiting for this to materialize. How I missed the MM signature tone. When I listen to the album, I hear a continuation of MC94. So for me it's almost as much of a MC album as MC94.
On the digipack inside I noticed the picture with the sign No Dumping I believe is a message to the guys of Motley.
Who sells the album? Can’t find it in stores.
I got mine from Amazon. But local record stores sell it. They might just be out of stock.
Bucking the trend slightly, I’m enjoying this album. I’m tunelessly belting out Right side of wrong on my commute to work!😂
My favorite on the album
Harem scarem : mood swings is great album think u would love it
Before I even dive into the record, I’m putting it out there, I love this record. From day1 Mick has said this is going to be heavier and different than Motley Crue and yet everyone still had the impression that they are gonna a hear Dr Feelgood. I liked the singles that were released. Not sure what the “all the ballads” comment was about. There is one ballad. I absolutely love the vocals. Has a lot of a Myles Kennedy-vibe. I think this record falls into the vein of a Sixx AM, maybe a bit of the Corabi era Crue, Saints of LA era Crue. Top to bottom, I didn’t hear one bad track, nothing filler. A couple of the tracks should be massive radio hits but terrestrial radio is garbage, so it won’t get the shine. I’m putting this in the 9/10 range only because it’s too short. Woulda loved two more songs.
Meant to say before I dive into the video, not the record… already played this through 7 or 8 times.
This album is not at all disapoited and I prefer it to Ace's New album (and I love Ace !). Mick took risks and Plays with a modern sound, that's good !🤘
Brendon, Just and FYI .. The symbol on the inside is the voodoo symbol veve Feray AKA MARS THE GOD OF WAR....
Mick is RIFF MASTER! His offering in 2024 with his spine that must be near Sawdust at this point offers testament to his devotion to SOUND! I’m a FAN! It’s RIFF Based and Solos are unnecessary! MICK MARS kills it on this record! {insert clappy hand emojis and a request for an encore here}
Ain’t going back is the only track I like off the album to be honest I was really rooting for him as love his playing primal scream was the best I played it threw 5 times in last 2 days and it leaves me feeling flat I think it’s going to be shelved I prob dig it out in 5 years but sorry not for me pretty gutted expected not motley but diffrent to this agree disjointed great show though bud
Спасибо большое вам за возможность увидеть как оформлено это издание,альбом мне понравился с первого прослушивания, супер так свежо звучит, однозначно буду покупать винил!😊 Всем мирного неба над головой!
I've only checked out the first 2 singles. Side note, Saints of Los Angeles sounds better as the years go by
I agree but at the time I was very disappointed with it.
@@BrendonSnyder me too
The album is a good album. Mars has stated for a long time it was going to be different than motley. I guess people still wanted too fast for love part 2.
This album was hyped up for years, and it doesn’t meet the expectations. Chinese Democracy 2.0
Forget Motley Crue sounding. All strong tracks. Better than last Ace Frehley.
Modern sound ..aka radio rock metal. The ballads are out of place on this. And its so different from the Crue. Best thing about the albim is that its fairly short. The single is not bad but very hard rock radio too.
i thought the mars album was good better than the disappointing ace frehely album for sure as ace needs to get a lead singer for sure
It's a hard pass for me. Unless I find it in a bargain bin sometime down the line.
It will be in there soon
This is the runner up behind the Ace album as the second worst album of the year.
I'm fine with it not sounding like Crue, but I'm not fond of it sounding as generic as it does. I'd rather Mars did the bluesy style album while still venturing away from sounding like Crue.
It is better than the new Kiss cd..
You mean the new album from former Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley?
@BrendonSnyder No, just an attempt at bad humor. I don't like the cd from Mick at all. There's no new cd from Kiss, so it's better than that. Mick should have went with Carobi on vocals in my worthless opinion.
Great video! I like this album overall, but don’t love it. It reminds me a lot of what Nikki Sixx has done with Sixx: A.M. Good modern hard rock. However, it’s not as good. The album lacks a unique sound or identity. The vocals are good usually, but nothing super memorable. Songs are good but don’t really have a catchy hook to keep you coming back. To sum it up; this album is good for 1 or 2 listens, but not much else in my book.
Too modern sounding for me. The vocals are not doing it for me
Agree, vocals are too modern for my OG ears!
Thanks for the review. Not for me
Should always have the song titles on the back of an album , it’s so annoying
Do u own cds by Y and T. , Grim reaper, TNT, harem scarem , WASP
Do u like those bands
Yes all except Harem Scarem but I do know the band and have one album from their early years.
I wish the album had JC singing on it !! A little bit of a disappointment for me. I don't see going back to it
Modern metal album = bleh. Not buying.
Hate the vocals should of had corabi singing on it instead
This misses the mark completely for me. Sounds like every other buttrock album of the past 20 years. I wouldn't be able to single this out as Mick if given a blind test.
I’m disappointed with this album. The first single was really good, second single was ok. The album itself is also just ok, very modern sounding and what’s with all the ballads too? Even Ace Frehleys new album is better than this and even that’s nothing special. Sorry just my opinion
The singing on this album is very good. You can't really say that there's great singing on Ace's album. I think the playing on Ace's album is great but, lyrically it's too cheesy at times even for Ace. Constantly Cute? Nothing on Mick's album is as bad as that.
@@patriotpizzaman Well yeah you make good points. I just like more songs on Aces album. Not by much though
I thought ace spu ded like ozzy on this album @JCStorm77
I’m just so sick of listening to the riff on the very first song. C’mon Mick, aren’t you tired playing that? Guess not.
