Listening to this track for the umpteenth time made me realise what a great track this would be put to a sporting montage, hence the video of course. 

It would match well with all teams from all codes, but in particular a sporting team known as the Lions as a result of the Killer line " You better bet your life when you run with the Lion".

We have an AFL (the real Football) team down here called the "Brisbane Lions".

Their promotions team should be all over this.

It's fantastic!  

My initial favorites would be 19 Summertime, Go Big Or Go Home, Against The Grain, So Good and Love Don't Live Here Anymore.  But there's no bad songs here and I just dig the attention to detail these guys have in their songs.

For me, this definitely reminds me much more of their debut than their second album style, theme & quality wise.  Listening to this reminds me of songs like Take Me Back, Last Kiss, Underneath The Stars, etc. 

Very easily slots into my #1 spot so far this year.  We'll see if Midnite City can challenge it in a couple weeks.

Really good

Anything is better than that pile of shite.

Listened to it on my morning...Drive...today. 

They killed it. Again. Nothing more to say, really.

Favorite songs:

I know people are excited about Nuno shredding it on the new Extreme…is it just me or is Rob bringing the shred to whole new level on this release compared the first two albums?

Agree.  Killer guitar work on this and basically every song has hooks of some kind.  Even Miracle, which is probably my least favorite song here, still has plenty of melodies and hooks in a Def Leppard kind of way which still keeps it somewhat interesting.

For me this definitely betters their last album.

[Eric3]

My song of the year, so far.

 

[Glen]

I like it all except Miracle
