Title: AS GRUESOME AS IT GETS
Review: Part two of Rod Stewart's descent into post-rock senility is as emotionally dead as the first one. The penchant for aged, gutless rockers who can no longer make great or even decent rock and roll to hide behind this sort of pseudo-sophisticated, coma-inducing drivel is a trend played out to its most disgusting with Stewart. And who in hell pronounced these boring, trivial, sentimental ditties The Great American Songbook in the first place? Obviously people who have never heard of Bob Dylan, Randy Newman, Paul Simon, Jackson Browne, Warren Zevon, Bruce Springsteen, Brian Wilson and Chuck Berry. Whoever they are, they are more than welcome to sit in their smoky rooms with their Gibsons and Highballs and listen to this tripe until they fall off their barstools.
Is the review positive or negative?
