When Rosetta Stone first came out they were kind of tainted with the trad goth sound. They released some solid material but that sound became very dated. Tyranny of Inaction ditches that trad sound. It's pretty much electro, industrial like perhaps. Songs like Nothing and One angel short of heaven truly show how well this band can adapt to change. For those who are trad goth purists.. avoid it. If you have an open mind and realize that traditional is a yawn, you must get this disc.

bought this album and it changed my life... kindest regards to the artist for taking a change and melding it into a great bunch of songs. Though usually known for their Gothic style...they presented this album very well.

If you have Adrenaline and are looking for more of the same, you may want to listen to some samples before buying this CD. Gone are the catchy melodies and rythms. Gone is the good singing. It is replaced with some horribly bland industrial music that is devoid of anything that made Rosetta Stone good in the beginning. The only good song on the album is Nothing, and it is horrible compared to any of their old stuff.

I can't believe that I actually spent money on this before listening to it. If I had, I'd be $8 richer and believe me, I wouldn't mind, money's so tight right now! This is by far, one of the worst cds I've bought this year-its' actually painful to my ears. The lyrics suck and the music, well, I wish I could say something positive. I guess the only thing going for this cd is the first 2 tracks, but you can find "Friends & Executioners" on Wired Injections (Cleopatra Records) and that cd is a much better investment than this, dare I say, album. Save your money kids.
