Their first singles are never the best songs on their albums, but this is good stuff. I can't wait to hear the song that Tremonti sings ...

I've only listened to a few songs, but it's much more of a true metal album so far. Old style metal with someone who truly sings.
 
I have only listened to it once, but a few things already stick out:

-heavy
-lots of different vocal techniques
-almost prog-metal, with lots of long, more intricate songs
-on the negative side, the melodies are weak for a Tremonti album
 
It's getting better with each listen, as there's so much going on. It's like listening to a Karnivool album in a way, it's not immediately catchy in the way Tremonti normally is - like he can do in his sleep.
 
Cry of Achilles and Calm The Fire are my favorites so far. In saying that though the only song I am not enjoying is Waters Rising. This is probably Tremonti's best guitar work on an album ever. Every song/solo feels different. Loving it. They have managed to push themselves musically, but at the same time still retain the melodic elements.

Pretty sure some of the solos are Kennedy's. I don't think any of the solos are particularly memorable, but it's good to see some time changes and different techniques, like tapping.

As much as this album is growing on me, I hope this is not the end of melody being at the forefront of Tremonti's music.

Creed looks like it's dead (not crying), but he needs a vehicle where he can release those simpler, more melodic ideas IMO.

he will need to change eventually, his written a lot of stuff in the last 5 years and on this album song with his heavier riffs are starting to sound the same.

There are a couple of songs that are very easy to disgest like All Ends Well and Addicted to Pain, but only one would be amongst the better songs IMO. Kennedy is a beat on his this album. His vocals are sublime, inventive and he has the best solos.
 
really loving this album, its pretty much full of great songs. myles has one of the best voices going and theres a heap more energy to this album. the last one dragged out heaps and had a few standouts with a few songs that are very skippable. dont know how memorable the solos/riffs are yet but the songs as a whole are fantastic
