Good, not Best, but not Blackout, March 18, 2005
Seriously, i cant believe one of the other reviewers compared Blackout to Broke. I think Broke was the best album this band will probably ever turn out, however that doesnt mean that this album isnt great.
Max Cavelera did his greatest stuff with Sepultura, but if you dont think Soulfly is any good, well get your ears checked.
This album is a strong departure from Blackout, its rough, crude, and yes probably more vulgar than would seem possible. This was done on purpose. If you love HED p.e. and thought Blackout was a sellout album, go buy this album. It is redemption, there is no way that it will get airplay. (THEY DID THIS ON PURPOSE)
If you know that hed has a self-titled album, or better yet if you have ever heard of a thing called Church of Realities then buy this album.
You know what, better yet, go see HED live. If you think HED is jumping the shark with this album, go see HED live, if you think that HED is misogynistic/hateful/or any of the other crap, GO SEE HED LIVE. They are just as good as they ever were, i would honestly be willing to bet that all of the people who dont like this album think that Bartender was the best song HED ever did.(and as MCUD would say, "Gay as* motherf*%<ers")

Very Underrated., November 21, 2006
I don't see what the problem is people have with this album. I was very impressed with this CD, yes it's vulgar and childish, but as far as I know, they did it on purpose. Raise Hell is honestly the best song, with a very nice guitar solo at around 3:35 until the end of the song. In short, this CD seems to be bashed and pissed on because it's not Broke.
Yes the Rap-Metal boom has been dead for years and yeah Hed should have gotten more respect, but it beats the worn out Metalcore bands such as KillSwitch, and Trivium among others, that play the same played out Hardcore with gothenburg riffs and solos. Also Hed isn't Nu Metal, as they don't play the same two cords over and over, and not to metion the guitar solo's, which Nu Metal never uses.
Buy this CD, it's underrated.

Hed p.e. on the right track, January 26, 2006
I don't care what anyone's put.. Hed are a spectacular band, I love each of their cd's, Blackout is the only questionable one commercial-wise. This is their rawest and most vulgar material. The only 3 songs I skip on this cd are Raise Hell, The Truth, and that one where he said "this a little love song for all you b''''es." The bonus track is dope, this whole cd is great and it's no less Hed pe. They're on the right track and they need support to know they're still the sh't and to keep cutting dope records.. This is a really good cd..
