Bon Jovi - 7/10(dated a bit, but a solid debut)
7800° Fahrenheit - 7/10(A few fillers but as solid as the debut)
Slippery When Wet - 9.5/10(A classic)
New Jersey - 10/10(Their crowning achievement)
Keep the faith - 9/10(under rated gem)
These days - 6.5/10(Was all down hill from here)
Crush - 5/10(Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars?? WTF???)
Bounce - 4/10(Besides 'Everyday' the rest of the album is forgettable)
Have a nice day - 7/10(A slight return to form)
Lost Highway - 5/10(A few really good songs, but the country twang was too much for me)
The circle - 5/10(Just a forgettable album. Couldn't even tell you one song from it)
What about now - 4/10(2 cracking songs in 'Beautiful World' & 'With These Two Hands'. That's it)
Too poppy, too country or too bland since These Days. Haven't written a great anthemic rock song since 'It's My Life'! I can't think of a decent ballad since 'Lie To Me' from These Days either. It's not just rock they have left behind, it's the fact they can't write a string of decent tunes anymore. The odd song on an album is ok, but that is it. No albums I would even call great since the under rated Keep The Faith album. Can't see that trend continuing anytime soon. Would like to be proven wrong.
