Title: A CD 20 years too late
Product review: In order to create Styx music, your mind needs to be in the early 80's. We have grown too cynical in our mentality now, but Styx still sings with the spirit of grandiosity that seems misinformed and naive. Dennis deYoung sounds like he wants to make you stand up and salute the flag. These people are supposed to be rockers. The lyrics are all about girls, wishful thinking and abstract characters. The songs are a good effort, but they're old hits that were created late. I can't imagine anyone who can live daily with attitude that permeates this style of music. To me it's like bringing back the dead and putting a lot of makeup on it; no matter how good of a job you do, I think it's not right. I absolutely do love the old STYX, though, and in those times it felt more sincere.
