So finally got around to listening to the album (still waiting for CD to arrive but at least a digital version came with the order). This is defo the best album he has released since leaving Skid Row, and is better than anything released by his former band (even the Erik fronted album). I liked his solo stuff, but he was always trying too hard to be modern and heavy, so there were very few actual stand out tracks. On here though it really is more of a throwback. While not quite classic Skid Row, it is probably as close as we will ever get, kinda sitting somewhere sonically between the first two albums. The only downside for me is the fact there is only one ballad and it doesn't even come close to the two that featured on Angel Down. Seb took a long break between this and his previous album, and I think in that time he has taken time to reevaluate what he wants to do musically. As stated earlier, even the album cover is a throwback with it being a painting his father started decades ago. Hopefully any future releases will stick to this style, and not return to the style used on his last few albums. -

Not sure, but sounds like christian lyrics to me. And could'nt find it on HH yet. 25 years ago I would have loved this, today I'm atheist and do not listen anymore to such... explicit lyrics. -
I got it for free when I bought the Dirty Americans album. It's a cool little sampler.

Better than I expected, honestly, as GUN was never my thing. -
Agree. Have been a fan of Halestorm and Lzzy....she's fantastic. That said though, this Skid Row thing just feels "off" to me. She sounds fine but I think it's simply that hearing a female voice do the songs just doesn't seem right after listening to the originals for so long. I much prefer hearing Lzzy in Halestorm. I'd rather see her concentrate on that and also concentrate on doing new music that's more in line with their first 2 albums!

From memory it was recorded after the original pledge release of Beautiful things and was added as a bonus song when it became available to the general public.
