(this is a repost from my neocities page from 6/24/25! I'm going through and posting all the old shit on here)
im just gonna come right out and say this has been one of my all time favorite albums for a WHILE cuz let me tell you almost every song on this SLAPS EVERY SINGLE TIME. i'm gonna do a bunch of posts reviewing my favs and some of my least favs and this is where im starting lmao i own this on CD and have the whole thing downloaded to every device i have
Moon Baby - IMMEDIATE BANGER of course as expected. i love this song its one of my favorites off the album, the beginning clip talking about the conspiracy that the moon has the power to drive people insane fits so well with what the song is about (how much he hates his ex wife lmao) and its just SO PEAK. the instrumental is fantastic as it always is with Godsmack (i'll talk about that more later) and the similarity yet difference between the main vocals and the back vocals sounds so cool and its just lowkey all around great.
Whatever - NOT MY FAV OFF THE ALBUM . i adore the pre-chorus and the second verse but im just honestly not a fan of the chorus or the other verses. BUT!!!!!! the drums in this song are AMAZING by far my favorite part of the instrumental
Keep Away - ANOTHER ONE OF M FAVORITESI i love keep away the chorus is so satisfying and the drums are, as almost always, my favorite part of the instrumental. however, sully's voice in this is GREATTT it 100% tops the instruments in my opinion. the exception to that in this song is near the end of the middle section and the end when sully just goes NUTS on the guitar it sounds so so so cool you dont even know.
Time Bomb - i think this song is great but it feels like blasphemy because i also like last by nine inch nails and like... i love godsmack but this is literally just a rip off of last by nin LMAOO although honestly i still love sully's voice in this and i never wont love it
Bad Religion - THE BACKGROUND VOCALS IN THE CHORUSSSSSSS my favorite part of the song by far just putting that out there right off the bat. this song is definitely in my top 3 off this album and i am not ashamed of that it sounds SO GOODDDD!!! i also really love the rhythm of this song especially the drums. the guitar adds so much as well i love the way they chose to time it in with the beat of the lyrics too
Immune - I REALLY LIKE THE CONTRAST BETWEEN THE VERSES AND THE CHORUS! the guitar and the drums at the end too UUUGGGH its SO GOOD. it sounds almost like a fever dream a little bit and i personally really like it even though it sounds odd to some folks
Someone In London - GODDDD BY FAR ONE OF MY FAVORITES OFF THE ALBUM ALLTOGETHER, AND ONE OF MY FAVORITE INSTRUMENTALS OF ALL TIME. the subway noises in the background set the atmosphere so well and the transition into the bass and of my goddd its so good actually. the way it goes right into get up, get out is also PEAK
Get Up, Get Out - THE TRANSITION FROM SOMEONE IN LONDON TO THE BEGINNING OF THIS SONG ACTUALLY MAKES ME CUM. the verses are SO GOOD and the chorus is so rapidfire it matches the urgent vibe of the song so well which even works with the beggining of someone in london being in a subway station. THE DRUMS TOO GOD THIS SONG IS JUST OVERALL SO GOOD
Now Or Never - NOT a fan of the intro sound before the music when listening on shuffle @ night LMAO but the music in the beginning with the guitar is genuinely peak. i also love the drumbeat sm i adore the way the chorus sounds it sounds like a pattern if that makes sense. the melody is great
Stress - PRETTY GOOD but not the best off the album imo. the instrumental and the vocals definitely help to solidify the feeling of stress so i like it a lot from an artistic standpoint rather than a musical standpoint
Situation - i like the quiet moment before sully's singing in some parts- it really emphasizes the beauty of those part of the song and its SO GOODDD and as always the drums and the guitar/bass are fantastic, and for once i think i highkey like the guitar more than i like the drums which is rather surprising.GODDD i love this song. not a big fan of the ending tho
Voodoo - ONE OF MY ALL TIME FAV SONGS. i love the dead silence with the vocals in the beginning right into some of my favorite drumbeats godsmack has done for any of their songs- its simple but combined with the bass its SO freakin good. the drums getting more intense during the chorus and calming downn again makes for a really nice effect and it tickles my brain so nice. all the verses in this song follow a similar pattern without being repetitive and boring and its kinda impressive to be able to do that lowk. my favorite part of the song is the ending part where it repeats "voodoo" its so satisfying especially to sing.
OVERALL A SOLID 9/10 ALBUM!!
