Pull is a fantastic album. I always liken it to Warrant's Dog Eat Dog, not in sound exactly but in that it was the bands third album and because grunge had hit, it sold pretty poorly - but imo was their best album.

Totally agree, over hyping these things invariably leads to disappointment. Plus the whole carrot dangling, "I know something you don't or I've heard something you haven't" just winds people up. I'm sure Tommy didn't mean it that way & I'm sure he was genuinely excited about the songs but as Troy says, if you've got something to talk about, talk about it- don't talk about talking

My Chemical Romance - Conventional Weapons Stone Sour - Audio Secrecy Bon Jovi - What About Now They're probably the ONLY albums I've listened to in the last month - well, 7 Wishes got a spin the other day :o) The MCR has really grown on me - excellent "album".

I thought the second album was really good - once again produced by Plunk and he co-writes 9 of the 10 songs. I'm with Mike as far as Autograph goes - the first album is a classic. Really

In all seriousness, I just fail to understand how someone who likes Springsteen thinks Nebraska & Tunnel Of Love are bad albums. They are in essence what Springsteen is all about just as much as Born In The USA or Born To Run are.

Nah, he should have gone back and re-done Nebraska with Desmond - it was obviously lacking in the whoa-ho department. Just think how great that album would have been with Livin' On A Prayer on it.

Whoever is a better singer is all subjective I guess, but I can't say I've ever heard anybody (Springsteen included) murder a song as badly as this in a long while.

Best: 1984/Jump - I'm a big VH fan and even though a lot of hardcore fans don't rate 1984 as highly as the other Roth albums, to me it's a total classic - all killer, no filler! Love Mean Street too & I'm rather puzzled someone would pick The Seventh Seal as the weakest opener - I would say it's the strongest of the Hagar-era albums. Worst: Tattoo - Really enjoyed the album but I can live
