The verse definitely has a huge Enough's Enough vibe, which isn't one of my favourite Alice tunes but I still enjoyed this. I'd be happy if the album is in this vein, but it probably won't be up there with my favourite Alice albums.

Curious to see how the whole record turns out in either case.

I've heard from someone on Alice's Facebook page that Met him at a meet and greet at his shows and Alice played him most of the album and even sang to some of the lyrics. An he told me when I asked him about it, he said it's heavier than usual, heavy as in heavy rock guitars and it's classic Alice style and says it's a great album from what he's heard. Does that make you feel alot better about the album now??

Oh I'm going to love the album no matter what. But I come from a metal background. Alice is pretty much the only non-metal artist I listen to, so I'm always in favour of him returning to a Raise Your Fist and Yell sound, even if I know it's not realistic.

Robert Plant has moved on from Led Zeppelin
Paul McCartney has moved on from The Beatles
Ozzy has moved on from Black Sabbath
and don't get me started on KISS....
Peter Gabriel has moved on from Genesis
Tina Turner left Ike in the dust......a long time ago

If you don't like the new music....just stop bitching and go away....because other people are just moving on and enjoying the ride and the new creativity. This argument is so....so....tired.

Who in the world are you talking to?

Alice actually worked with the original band on this album (and the last) and did some live shows with them, so it sounds to me like you're somewhat confused.
