New song from 80's iconic Metal heroes. The song is alright, but it doesn't have a hook. It could grow on me cuz it's Mötley Crüe after all. Vince sounds great ,and the music video is pretty damn great too. Let's see if they can get an 80's icon "free pass" on Active chart?

Meh, I’ve heard better and worse from them. I like the guitar work here (even if part of it sounds like it came from Saints & Sinners by Godsmack), but Vince Neil kinda kills the energy here, & lyrics could be much better as well (I know Nikki Sixx writes the lyrics).

As expected one day later they get the free pass. I'm also liking it a lot more tonight. Blame it on Vince Neil's picture perfect 80's Hair Metal vocals.

Sorry, but this is kinda meh, lol. This is them sort of attempting to do Korn, or at least something in the nu-/alt- metal region, and it doesn't quite work for them. Good guitar solo, but otherwise, I didn't care for this.

Some one made a comment on youtube saying that if you wanted to introduce Mötley Crüe" music to someone, make sure this isn't the song you use. I kinda agree. Down Down Down Down" and the cool guitar solos is pretty much what I have to work with. |

UM I think this is...kinda ok? Like, with a sub 2 score on RYM I was expecting way worse. I'm not a huge Crue fan to begin with & I wouldn't necessarily say that they've aged the most gracefully, but for some reason this kinda works for me. It's not like the band has never gone nu metal before (that kinda seemed to be the goal on Generation Swine at least), and the John 5 guitar licks are kinda cool. Vocals are a little better than I'd expect too (but the bar was low to begin with). There's a chance I might boost this a bit in the year-end RD
(but I also have a history of making posts about songs after one listen and then a month later realize that I was very wrong about my initial opinion)
