What I can judge is the production and the first verse which is nothing but pure shit. I'm sure listening to These Days today definitely didn't help things however this is just "another one of those songs"...

It's We Don't Run, meets Knockout, meets Beautiful World, meets The More Things Change, meets Walls...

I don't mind these songs as fillers, bonus tracks, etc but this should not be leading the album...

Shanks and Jovi have zero chemistry. Even when I go back to HAND, when Jon still had some natural talent left in him, I still never dug Shanks production... Considering Jon spent 3 days in the studio (or a very limited time), I get why he still uses the guy but this is just terrible...

No substance, no depth, and zero emotion from Jon...

I think the vocals are done in one take and then they just do anything with them after that... Slow them down, speed them up, filter the tone, take about bad notes, change the pitch etc.

I just don't get it.

I agree with you 100%.
Shanks colaboration with BJ should have finished in The Circle.
They are in a very comfortable zone,I dont need to listen to the new album to know how it is going to sound and how the new songs are going to be.
It is just more of the same record over record over record.
Jon has no more passion on music anymore,its just his work.He releases new records and play small legs of tours just like we go to our works.
The passion for music is long gone,I think since LHighway or even before.
