I don't like his side project, and the vocalist is weak.

I agree this is bad, seems he needs a hppy but why dont play doom, black metal or other genre, to me metal is supgenres and more you like better,

Your first sentence makes no sense, what are you trying to say?
On second thought, whatever...

Just stop it with the true metal, true metalheads nonsense. It was annoying years ago, you're still doing it...
Nothing wrong with Steve doing a heavy metal album, I just don't like what he's done, I'm sure there will be plenty of people enjoing his project.

Nice album, though is not my cup of tea. They just need to get a better singer and this band will shine on its own

Yeah... the singer. I think he's fine on some of the songs of this album. It's hit and miss just like the previous album.

The softer songs actually fit his voice really well imo. Think of songs like "The Lesson" from the previous album and on this one "Native Son".

Other then that, I can say that there are a couple of songs that I really like. Especially in the second part of the album (3 last songs are amongst my favourites on this album).

Is it an improvement over the previous one? Yeah. Is it a huge improvement? No. It's more consistent, but I still think that the best tracks on the previous album are more memorable. That said, I've only listened to it once so far, so maybe a second listen will change that opinion. We'll see.

I think there may have only been one song I could force myself to listen all the way through, the rest I had to skip for the sake of my sanity.
