Different Mudvayne, but very good!
When I put this cd in and heard it through I knew there were going to be a bunch of negative reviews for it. This album is NOT L.D.50 or anything close. It is however, a good rock album. If you want a good rock album and something different from Mudvayne, you'll like this album! If you want the crazy Mudvayne of old you will be disappointed. I on the other hand, can enjoy both!

Pure Sh-t
i find it funny about the topic of this band "selling out". it doesn't even matter to me. im simply not into this kind of music anymore. constant 3 min songs verse chorus verse chorus doesn't at all excite me. maybe they did sell out who cares they're boring regardless.

Not Nearly As Bad As All These Foolish Reviewers Say!!!
This album is so much better than these other reviewers are saying. The sound is only slightly lighter and only in some songs with more attention paid to melody, but there are still plenty of heavy songs and the album still has Mudvayne's trademark sound. Chad Grey is still a great singer who can scream better than anybody and he still screams a lot. Ryan Martinie is still the best bassist in metal. The drums are still great, though maybe not as great as past albums. And the guitar work is a bit different because there are solos on this album, they are short usually, but pretty cool nonetheless. Songs like Fish Out of Water, A New Game, The Hate in Me, Dull Boy, and Same Ol' are songs that are extremely similar to all of Mudvayne's other work. The only really soft type songs are Never Enough, Scarlett Letters, and A Cinderella Story, and the latter two of those three are very good! The lyrics are still the same, just as much anger, frustration, and torment in the lyrics as always with Mudvayne. They haven't really changed that much. This album is great, still heavy, but more melody and singing, the only bad song I think is Never Enough. Mudvayne is clearly one of the best metal bands today, and I love all of their albums and this album is another great addition to the Mudvayne catalogue. Great album, highly recommended to all real Mudvayne fans!!

Would you like it to sound the same?
What do you people want? A Mudvayne CD that sounds exactly like L.D.50? All you "they are selling out" whining losers need to grow up. A band changes. A band evolves. This band is doing that. They have grown. They no longer need to throw in the f-word a hundred times per song. And, they have a GUITAR SOLO! I am one of the few who thinks this is great.
And, if anyone really thinks they have lost their edge, go see a live show. They are just as heavy and twisted as day one.

average album, but still a great band
Even after hearing various negative reviews I tried to listen to the album for what it is. I'd have to agree though that this album is just average. I think they are way more talented and capable of so much more than what's presented on the new game. I really hope they come back stronger on their next release.
The whole mystery game part of the cd that concludes in jan of 09 is a cool adition though.
Would definitly recommend seeing them live and hope they tour more in 09.
