Godsmack IV (4/25/06)

Haven't seen this posted yet.

I wasn't too impressed with Faceless, but this new one sounds pretty good so far. Its got a slightly different sound to it I think.


Track Listing:

1. Livin In Sin
2. Speak
3. The Enemy
4. Shine Down
5. Hollow
6. No Rest For The Wicked
7. Bleeding Me
8. Voodoo Too
9. Temptation
10. Mama
11. One Rainy Day

From what I've heard, it sounds like Godsmack. Not a bad thing, especially since the AIC overtones are still there.

I imagine I will pick it up, as well as see them on tour. I know the girlfriend likes them a lot.

from Best Buy:

Free shipping and exclusive bonus CD

Get a bonus CD featuring the track "Safe and Sound" and free ground shipping when you order Godsmack's new CD, IV.

Check out streams from the new album and video interview footage of lead singer Sully Erna and producer Andy Johns. Plus, save on the previous Godsmack CDs listed below.

Exclusive bonus CD will arrive in the package with the CD.
Offer is good through 5/6/06 or while supplies last.


NEW CD/BIO:
From their roots in the Boston area, Godsmack built a strong following in the New England scene of the late 1990s.

The success of their first headlining venture, "The Voodoo Tour," coupled with high record sales and growing numbers of fans, landed them on Ozzfest 1999 and 2000.

More well-received CDs and successful tours followed and ultimately paved the way for their latest effort.

IV features the straight-ahead rocker "Speak," and finds the band pushing new boundaries with the moody, Zeppelin-like "Hollow," and the bluesy "Shine Down."

So, the bonus CD only has 1 song on it? I hate that!

Why press a whole separate CD for 1 song?

I'll definitely be getting this. I saw them open for Metallica 2 years ago. They sounded great. I think I'll take the free t-shirt offer at Circuit City.

It pisses me off that there is a different track on the Best Buy and target versions. This just screams out download.

I actually got a copy of the album a couple weeks ago, and it is not as heavy as previous albums, it is going to take time to get used too. But hey a Rob Zombie, Godsmack and Tool album coming out all within a month and a half of each other, it just does not get better than that.

Throw in new Pearl Jam and Chili Peppers albums, and it makes it even sweeter, for me anyways.

I really liked Faceless and the samples from this one sound pretty good, too.

Picked this up today & it sounds pretty good. Only had a chance to listen to it once but so far, so good.

I went for the free T-shirt at CC which was also a buck less. I figure the other 2 songs will be available for download eventually. For those who got them, are they any good?

By the way, the T-Shirt looks good & is pretty nice but they only had Xtra Large in size. I know we are becoming a nation of fat-asses but come on...why not go in the middle of the road with a large size. The XL is pretty damn big on me and I'm not even a small guy.

Yeah, we girls have the same problem.

As for the new album, man it ROCKS! I've loved Godsmack for years and this CD ranks up there as one of their best. I seriously can't wait to hear these songs live. Come on, announce US tour dates already!

I like this one much more. Besides I Stand Alone and Serenity, nothing stood out on Faceless. This is much better.

I'm digging this. they really sound recharged, a problem with Faceless was it sounded lyrically and musically tired. No filler. Really good rocking sounding tracks.

Glad they're back (with a new album).

Grade: B+

They kinda ruined the disc art with that FBI Anti-piracy warning bullshit. How about some fine print guys?
