		<description>To the writer of this review.
Are you deaf? Not only have(as you mentioned)Scott Phillips, Brian Marshall and Mark Tremonti come light years from where they were on the earlier records, but the music on the new CD is well orchestrated, well thought out, melodic, and above all, kick ass rock and roll. Now, not to say that Scott Stapp's voice doesn't need some coaching(ESPECIALLY LIVE,) but in the studio it is well produced and sits nicely in the mix.
FURTHERMORE: Alter Bridge is TWICE the band Creed is/was and I can only hope the guys hurry up and get back to AB. Fizzed out? Seriously, snobby reviewers are why real rock is dying.</description>

		<description>I could not disagree more with this review!  Fantastic album, not as good as Human Clay but certainly better than Weathered IMO.  Rain is fantastic.  They were ok as Alter Bridge but didn't sell much (I believe the first album only sold 500k copies).  

Welcome back Creed, hope you stay together.</description>

		<description>Thanks for the review of KathArine's album, Unbroken.   I like all the songs on this album especially Surrender, Faultline, How, It's Not Right, Unbroken, Terrified, and Brand New Key!  This last song is a cover from the '70's and she does a great job performing it (video from Chargers tail gate party on YouTube if you are interested).  Supposedly, the younguns don't understand the sexual innuendos of Brand New Key!</description>

		<description>I totally agree with Peterson.

And for a album that was put together in 2 months it is a job well done!</description>

		<description>I completely disagree with this review. One thing to note is that this album is far removed from "loudness wars" that you mention when reviewing the "disaster" from the song "Bread of Shame". Loudness wars is attributed to albums like death magnetic where a producer raises the compression on a track which "evens out" highs and lows so you can raise the overall volume without a high hat in your brain doing double time. This record is actually produced extremely well and there's not even a hint of over-use of compression. Thanks.</description>
