Bounce may have been an attempt to go back to mainstream rock but if it is, its a pretty tame effort. The album (Undivided excluded) is a below par performance for a reputedly well above par and evidently capable (from their previous work at least!) band. It could have been great rock - instead its a little confused as to what its supposed to be, as are a lot of fans from the sounds of it.
I prefer Crush over Bounce too and I think Bounce did not live up to expectations simply because it was kinda 'rushed' (for lack of a better term). The band took a long time to write Crush but didn't when they wrote Bounce.

I'd still say Bounce is a pretty commercial record. Hell, they have always been commercial. There is nothing wrong with it.

not just a few ballads! bounce has lots of ballads!
i think it would be a great album if it hadn't so many ballads and it had more rock songs, don't you think?

It couldn't have been Richie, he is the guitar player.
i do realize that. but did you watch the interview on american xs? there richie said "i decided to cut back on the guitars" and something like how well this fits into the music industry because there are too many younger rock bands out there who concentrate very much on the guitars... well, its kinda confusing really
Think of it this way: When Richie was interviewed, he was a scientist from Iraq, and Jon was Saddam.
Thats right richie is just jons follower in jons evil plan to destroy music. Richie has no iq and will follow anything jon says cause jon in soooo scary the most evil man on the planet.

I think that saying that Jon is evil and that Richie has no IQ is going just a teeny bit overboard, don't you? Really, we can't know who made the decisions about the guitars; we can only take educated guesses.
