4.0 out of 5 stars Fitting title for the CD, August 17, 2004

This review is from: Survival of the Sickest (Audio CD)

I had likened the process Saliva had made from Every Six Seconds to Back Into Your System. In fact, BIYS had shown many complex levels unlike that of ESS. So i headed to Best Buy this morning and was one of the first to buy the new CD "Survival of the Sickest." I came home and put the CD into the player. I was at first surprised but in the 2nd phase of listening to it later on it worked much better on the mind.

Track Listing as follows:

1. Rock and Roll Revolution: 5/5 At first it took me a while to remember it was Josey Scott singing for the band because he sounded oddly different when starting the song with the patented screams. But the instrumentals were totally on fire.

2. Bait and Switch: 4.5/5 Not losing pace from the opener and keeping touch with the power formula.

3. One Night Only: 4/5 I liked the lyrics for this song for som reason.

4. SOTS: 4.5/5 Awesome title track and i loved the way Scott sings it.

5. No Regrets: 4/5 Certainly not because this song is great.

6. Two Steps Back: 3.5/5 This is where they start the slower ballad stuff reminscint of Rest in Peaces.

7. Open Eyes: 3/5 Not too bad but i'm just not hooked to it.

8. F*** All Y'All: 5/5 What's odd is this band used no cussing in ESS and molded it in BIYS, but this takes it. As angry as Scott goes but the music is awesome

9. I Want You: 5.5/5 Simple lyrics but the music KILLS!

10. Carry On: 5/5 better lyrics: ditto music from 9

11. Razor's Edge: 3.5/5 At first i thought of the AC/DC song and album, and was dissapointed compared to that. But it's still a solid feel for this album.

12. No Hard Feelings: 4/5 Hopefully not because this song wasn't slow or extremely hard, but fell in the middle.

13. Untitled: NA: just 4 seconds of blank

14. Sex, Drugs, and Rock N' Roll: 4/5 According to the groups gutarist Chris this is the offical name of the song, but it goes without naming it a great song which is more old school rock n roll.

Overall: 3.9/5 This CD, like Soctt said in the latest Metal Edge, is more straight forward Rock N' Roll. You can thank Aerosmith and Kiss for that and the tour then did with them. But this CD excels in setting one boundry up and following the lead from song to song. Another plus was that the first song wasn't called SUPERSTAR III!

If you've been sitting and waiting for some advice as to buy or not, take it from me it's well worth the buy. Not just for die hard Saliva fans, but rock enthusists and grinders alike will enjoy this.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, November 14, 2006

The entire album is phenomenal. Yes, the lyrics are pretentious and can be a little annoying if you sit down and analyze them. However, when listening to this album as a whole it is just a true rock n' roll album. Saliva has a unique sound on this album and it rocks...not a bad song on the cd.

4.0 out of 5 stars decent but not like the others, June 11, 2005

This cd is not what "Every Six Seconds" or "Back into Your System" is. Saliva is a gritty hard rock band with that powerful edge on them. This is a decent cd but it lacks the power and imagination of the previous work. If you are a fan try it there are some cool tracks on it.
Update....June 2006...I saw the ses guys this past weekend. I have a new look at this CD....5 + Stars ..These guys are truely awesome live. The power they generate is unbelieveable. This tracks off this CD are way cool live...This is what they world needs. A real rock n Roll band..
