Ever heard this one?

That singer is worse than the last one!

I guess 5-man Acoustical Jam is counted as one of their first 4 albums that went platinum.

Well the first 4 albums went Platinum and Bust A Nut only achieved Gold. The sales definitely make it their weakest album of their heyday.

You guys are all perverts! You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Also.... I love you guys!!

Played this one for the first time today….Only song I remember much about is the title track Animalistic. Nothing sucks, but it does feel kinda “cookie cutter” , as all the songs just kinda blend together. 😕

Agreed oh wise one!

They used to be pretty solid. They really took a nosedive.

I'd be amazed if there's any Tesla fans anywhere that don't like 'Bust a nut.' Is this really considered one of their weaker albums? 

Absolutely!

Garbage is way outweighing the cool/decent stuff. No wonder nobody clicks these threads.

Endless supply of trash bands being posted here. 

FLAC here too and it sounds terrible. 

Another greatest hits album! And even worse, live greatest hits:

Perhaps the reason I like it as much as I do is that my expectations were completely in the toilet after Erik's departure. I was expecting garbage... and it's not. I find it quite enjoyable, even if not Tearing Down the Walls level.

Unlike with the Journey album, I'm not hearing the production issues people are complaining about, at least not to that degree. It's a hot mix to be sure, but it's not impacting my listening or enjoyment as with Journey. I also wonder if again, the source/platform is making a difference. I'm listening to uncompressed FLAC straight from disc, not streaming or some bit-starved promo files.

I don't get why you would even think that. I was thinking the music should be similar and Kenny's voice is powerful so not much change.

But HEAT II slays this. Easily.

After a couple listens, I'm not impressed.  The songs kind of all run together and sound the same.  Nothing terrible, just blah.

Erik is running out of ideas.

Standard Frontiers approach. Take a bunch of demos written by one of their go-to songwriters, polish them up, get a popular name to sing on them and call it an album. Or, even more dishonestly, a "band."

I think that is why the last 2 Nordic Union albums have flopped. The first album was probably 50/50.

I'm seeing the version without Spike on 11th June 🙄

How was it?

such a waste of talent, singing and playing this garbage 🗑 😒 

Sad isn't it. Listened to Sultans last night. That was so good. 

This still sounds like 1 endless song with different words. A travesty and a waste.

From what I've read, this is more than 80% Erik written. Ronnie barely had any input.

Worst album of 1990
