Negative Positive
Title: Staement on meds
Review: I got Statement a couple years ago and it has been one of my favorite rock/metal albums in my collection since. I picked up Development when I saw it on sale at a local music shop. What a disappointment. The title track is pretty good but the rest of the disc does anything but rock. It's mostly the lyrics/singing. It doesn't sound like the same singer from Statement (maybe it's not). This album has none of the intensity of their former. There are choruses like "Making mountains out of molehills". WTF is that?! It apears the singer has been on some type of medication that has taken off the edge. It might be good for his personal life, but the music suffers. If you like Statement (which I would recommend to any hard rock/metal fan) you will most likely feel let down w/ this one.
Is the review positive or negative?
