Synopsis

Amazon.com
Godsmack play their ghoulish hard rock with such a straight face, they make Metallica look like the Insane Clown Posse. For proof, look no further than heavily pierced frontman Sully Erna, who is not only a practicing Wiccan but the author of melodramatic declarations such as "Can't you see what this pain has fucking done to me." It's too bad the follow-up to the Boston band's triple-platinum self-titled debut rarely delivers with the desired intensity. Instead, the disc offers anodyne takes on the same old themes of aggression ("Sick of Life"), alienation ("Bad Magick"), and hocus-pocus ("Vampires"), with the all-too-familiar buzzsaw of nu-metal guitars and elastic bass grooves tearing throughout. --Aidin Vaziri

GODSMACK ROCKS AGAIN!
01/05/2001
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This is a totally rocking album. I loved the first Godsmack album but this one really rocks your body. The editing is well done and I had no qualms about buying this CD for my preteen sons. Godsmack is heavy-metal rock, with a definite attitude! Our local radio station calls it "testosterone-drenched rock and roll" and we love it!"
Awesome CD, Great Guitar.

"This album blows me away. The first CD is better, but that doesn't make this one [is bad]. I just got the 3rd album, Faceless.
It's really good, about the same as this one. The best songs are Awake, Greed, and Vampires. They all have the best guitars. Tony Rombola, the guitarist, is awesome. He plays that guitar better than Metallica's Kirk Hammet. Sully Erna, front man, is a powerful vocalist with an incredible voice for metal. This band is a mix of Metallica and Alice in Chains. Listen to it."
Great but not Awsome

"This is deffinatley a good album. But it's not what I expected for a second album. I was blown away by the first and maybe my expectations were too high for this one. I love a couple tracks. Sick of life, Greed and Vampire have the metal grind and chop I have come to expect from them. I find myself barley listening to rest of the CD usally fast forwarding and eventually popping GODSMACK in after those three songs. I would buy it because there is deffinatly more than one good song. Here's hoping they have more good songs and fewer bland ones on the next."
