Grab me a bottle of Whiskey and a cowboy hat and lets have some fun! This album just makes me feel like hanging out with some good friends and getting hammered. I just wish it had more than 11 songs, just seems to end too quickly. If you enjoyed their first album, this one is even better.

Tracks that stood out to me...

#2 The Debt That All Men Pay
#6 It's On!
#7 Pole Rider
#8 Cold As Stone
#9 Stand Or Walk Away

And all of them were met. Out of the 11 songs, there was only one that I didn't love. Like the last album, there's a variety of sounds (some songs lean towards metal, others towards country), and the concert footage is of good quality.

If you liked their last album, buy this one.

This album has a little bit of mudvayne sneaking into a few songs on it. but one thing is for sure, this album is artistic,brutal,and melodic from intro to outro. It's a bit heavier than the first album, and it has a few more slow songs on it but they still manage to keep the metal edge to it. you won't be disappointed by this album.

Wow! I missed out on the deluxe version w/the bull skull but what can you do? I really liked the first album, Hellyeah. Stampede blows past the first and improved on everything, except the song Alchoholin A$$ the best tune ever, hands down! All the songs on this album are good but a few are great, in my opinion of course, such as "Better Man" "Hell Of A Time" and a personal favorite "Pole Rider". Do yourself a favor and pick this album up, you WILL NOT be disappointed....unless of course you a "fan boy" who gets all sh1tt3 because these guys have other bands. Pick it up, turn it up and have a Hell of a time...

I got my girl got my family
Got my booze and Hellyeah's new album Stampede
that's all I need For a hell of a time

So, members of Mudvayne, Nothingface, Damageplan and Pantera walk into a bar. No, that's not the set-up to a cheap joke; rather it's the concept of good-times party-metal supergroup HELLYEAH.

That's right, they're back. Since the release of 2007's eponymous debut, the band likely suffered many hangovers but their knack for delivering groove-heavy and slightly formulaic metal has hardly faltered. One listen to "Stampede" indicates that all it took was some hair of the dog to get them back in line following frontman Chad Grey and guitarist Greg Tribett's short-lived reunion with their original band, Mudvayne. Together with drummer Vinnie Paul (ex-Pantera/Damageplan), co-guitarist Tom Maxwell (ex-Nothingface) and bassist Bobzilla (ex-Damageplan), the boozing boys are back to making music that perhaps no one enjoys listening to more than they enjoy making.

It may be their second album, but it may as well be an extension of their first. Grey still spits and screams songs about cowboys that actual cowboys probably wouldn't listen to while the band chugs along at a consistent pace. "Hell of a Time," the penultimate HELLYEAH tune, is a prime example of this. Not much has changed in three years and in that respect, this effort can't help but feel a bit sophomoric and immature. What made for a relatively fun and easy listen the first time around doesn't exactly translate here. Grey's lyrical content seems to be getting sillier and sillier, with the album's title track only serving to further alienate him from the crowd that followed him from his primary gig. Meanwhile, the band - while competent and consistent - do little to break from routine, making this set about as exciting as a marathon of "Everybody Loves Raymond."

If you really truly loved (and I mean LOVED) HELLYEAH's debut, there's no reason not to dig this as well. In a way, it's the same record, yet the youthful energy that fueled the band in its beginnings seems be drying up like a drunk waking up in the desert. For those of us who grew up on Pantera and maybe even Mudvayne, "Stampede" amounts to little more than a cheap buzz.

This was a great follow up to their debut CD!One of the greatest super groups ever!I love it!!!Definitely worth the money

I love music and try to buy a new release 8-months a year and 4 older albums to fill out the rest of the year. While this album wasn't a disappointment it certainly wasn't the most fun this year. I think Pantera fans will enjoy the music but it is no substitute for the real thing.

The songs aren't as strong as what I would have liked, but it is what I expected. The DVD has a concert from Dallas, TX and I would definately like to see Hellyeah live.

Hellyeah, thats about all there is to say! awesome CD, cowboy way and pole rider are my favorite songs on here

for the record Hellyeah has nothing to do with zakk wylde or BLS... dunno why its a tag suggestion...

It says it all in the name... Hellyeah!! Killer drumming from a killer drummer. Vinnie Paul doing what he does best. Love the new cd and can't wait to hear and see them live in concert. Phoenix, Arizona - Sept. 19th, Tempe Town Lake. It's gonna be a party! HELLYEAH!!
