Wow I bet I'm gonna hate this song. I never LOVED them, but oh how the mighty have fallen.

Album: The Oracle - Ah, sounds cool. Maybe this is a new direction for them.
Single: "Crying Like a Bitch" - Well, maybe not.

Maybe metalfan heard this news on Sirius Octane, along with the new Sevendust track and the news of the new Bullet For My Valentine track premiering soon. That's the only explanation I can come up with.

I'm not anticipating their new stuff as much as I used to in the past. Especially now just by reading this ridiculous song title. Like I've said about them before, maybe they can actually put out an album that doesn't sound just like every other one they've released before. I know they've made songs like "Voodoo" & "Serenity," but still.

My Alt station already played this this morning. There's not really a strong hook at all. My gut reaction about Godsmack putting out a song (lead single, no less) called "Crying Like a B!tch" was, "OK, it's 2010, guys. Really, now?  " And it's not like they even expanded their sound at all. It's just the guitar line is more stuttered and chugging this time, is all. It's funny to me that Sully still has a Napoleon complex. |

Hmm well, atleast it's a slight improvement on "Whiskey Hangover". Likely to hit 1 on Active, sadly.

The riff in this song is pretty badass, but too bad no other elements live up to it. I do like it better than any of the singles off IV and "Whiskey Hangover", but I think that just speaks to how much I disliked those songs. It's funny that I now consider Godsmack a band that I dislike because this is the 6th single in a row that has failed to impress me. Which is really pathetic because before that they had a run of five in a row that I really liked: "Straight Out Of Line", "Serenity", "Realign", "Running Blind" and "Touché". I also liked all seven singles preceding "I Stand Alone", and at this point I'd take "I Stand Alone" over anything in their current run of six. They just went from good to bad without any evidence of decline in between.

I gave them a pass on "Whiskey Hangover," considering the whole thing just felt rushed and I assume it as so. But I think I'd still take that one over this song, it's just so dull.

I know there's no way to differentiate the use of that word as far as the language filter goes. I just wish there was a way to leave it alone in song titles. What's even worse is seeing it with a lower-case B when it should be capitalized.

"Crying Like A Biotch".
Or "Crying Like A B;tch". That would work.

I'm wondering if this will burn out fast like Whiskey Hangover on Alt.
