Just finishing up listening to it for the first time, first impressions are good! Still don't think that much of Nine Lives, but the guitars sound great on this album, and some of the darker and heavier Slang-esque songs sound very cool

OMG, Gotta Let It Go has just started, the chorus really does sound just like HAND doesn't it?!

BTW, does anyone else prefer the cover when it's on the cd? I hated it when I saw the pic on the net but I don't mind it so much now on the actual thing.
No, it's tacky looking.

Mind you, I still don't have the actual album. But I can't imagine it looking any better.

I've got it now as well, and it's pretty much what I expected it to be. Here's my rating:

Great songs: Nine Lives (by far the best track), Tomorrow.
Good songs: Go, Cruise Control, Only The Good Die Young.
Okay songs: Hallucinate, Gotta Let It Go, Come Undone.
Shit songs: C'mon C'mon, Love, Bad Actress.

Something like that.

That's pretty much my verdict, only I wouldn't have swapped Nine Lives and Go.

It's ironic. Def Leppard used to be the masters of rock ballads up untill Euphoria (not that I'm solely a fan for their ballads, ofcourse), and yet Love (being the closest thing to a ballad) is pretty much the worst song on the new album.

Am I the only one who likes Love then? It sounds a lot like 80's Queen, and the guitar work on it is awesome. It's one of the stand out tracks so far for me, along with Go, Cruise Control, Gotta Let It Go, Bad Actress and Tomorrow
