3.0 out of 5 stars No choirboys here, a toughened up Tuff, August 8, 2006

Everyone knew Tuff would amount to zilch in their original guise (apart from a couple of magazines circa 1991) so they took the best of a small number of options and toughened up their act. And they pulled it off with skill. Dunno why but this album works far better than What Comes Around.... This is a harder release because it takes the harder edge of their earlier sound and smears it all over the record. Tied to the Bells, Daddys Money, Follow the Loser and God Bless This Mess all hold up their end of the bargain, rolling along nicely.

How much of this sound alteration was due to Jamie Fonte and Jimi Lord having replaced Michael Lean and Todd Chase I can't say - but this album is far more committed and fuller bodied musically. We also get an amusing change of pace with the old time tune Sixteen Tons. Wildly unexpected from this band but it actually breaks up the heavier feel of this release and adds a touch of humour.

My advice for any Tuff fan is to buy this - pop metal fans should also pick this up to spice up their collection. Check the tracklisting of any copy your thinking of buying. Some versions didn't have Daddys Money and Follow the Loser which are definitely two of the better cuts on this decent party metal album.

3.5 stars on a good day for my mind.

This cd is awesome with a raw punch you in the teeth sound that your metal senses will love till the end.Tuff has hardened up on this effort.Musically is a A+ from start to finish.This cd gives you the truth on how shady,and false religion and politics can be.Electric Church is an awesome example of what I'm talking about.Also it gives you the perspective on alot of different views from how an unpopular person might feel in highschool(Follow The Loser),to how a rich girl can't buy a person(Daddy's Money).Then It also gives the classic glam metal tunes on Rattle My Bones,and I Like What I See which are just awesome good time metal/rock songs.I love how this cd makes a big statement about alot of stuff that people try to ignore that is around us every day.Bottom line This cd Rocks from start to finish and is a must have.Tuff Kick's Ass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Rock On!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

4.0 out of 5 stars Tuff rocks, April 29, 2006

Tuff is one of those bands that most say were riding the coat tails of other bands such as Poison, also theyve been called Poison's carbon copy. Stevie Rachelle's voice is alot more true sounding, and more Tuff sounding. I say get this album, and also get their "What comes around Goes around" cd, that album rocks from start to finish....
