Not a fan either. They are one of only a handful of traditional rock bands still out there fighting the good fight and this thing is a mess. Very disappointed. If I was Taylor Hawkins I would take a break from Dave Grohl for a time and pull the trigger on the rumored hook up with the remaining guys from Rush and take an act out on the road under a new name playing Rush tunes.

Black/Death Metal

This was a bit strange and really not sure if Black/Death Metal covers it but that is what they call it so be it. Unfortunately I only liked 1 of the 5 tracks on the album but it was interestingly weird enough for me to listen to all of it.
