- #5 ‘Keep the Faith’ – proof that this ‘volcano’ was only dormant, not extinct...the '2nd. eruption'
- #6 ‘Crossroads’ – …if this band was supposedly no longer relevant in the 90’s, who was buying this album?…
- #7 ‘These Days’ – the eruptions just keep coming.
- #8 ‘Crush’ – could we be seeing 'eruption no. 3'???...I think so
- #9 OWN - ...a lull phase
- #10 'Bounce' - the 'after shock' of previous eruptions [read 'after shock' as you will]
- #11 TLFR - all volcanoes have to have a 'breather'...

Love it! Interesting theory!

Bon Jovi: Nice guitar work, tad unoriginal, quite gritty
7800: Very heavy, dark and rough, more experiments, lacklustre production
SWW: Anthemic, shiny, larger than life pop metal
New Jersey: The ultimate hard rock experience
Keep The Faith: Rawer bluesy rock, adult oriented rock, more varied, not as big but more subtly pleasing
These Days: Contemplative, artistic, blues rock, amazing production
Crush: More mainstream, more mellow, back to anthemic, quite experimental
Bounce: A slightly halfhearted attempt at a new direction, heavier in places, more epic in others
TLFR: Quite refreshing, but also a tad boring and none too adventurous

Keep On Rockin'
