Nice. Always loved me a bit of ‘Skillet’. Although i’m a little turned off by the choice of production, not a fan of AAR or MCR…

Could still be great though, the last album was a little weak in compariosn the previous effort imo.

Hmmm, not too keen on that “Hero” track. I’ve heard it on Air1 a few times and…meh.

This track sounds just like their other stuff. Not that that’s necessarily a bad thing: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it or whatever. Even so, I’m not sure I’m all that impressed.

Does it Resonate with you?
