Best album I've heard in 2008.
I had a few bucks burning a hole in my pocket, so I picked this CD/DVD set up for $11.88. I was absolutely AMAZED at how good this CD was. I expected the worst, and based on how little I liked Def Leppard's latest album, I just didn't have high hopes for this one. But I was dead-wrong. The album is the perfect blend of "pre-1986" Whitesnake, when they were putting out more heavy-metal oriented stuff, and "post-1986" Whitesnake where they were making more radio-friendly hair-metal. The big melodic hooks are on this album, but so are the shredding guitars. The songwriting is great, and David Coverdale still sounds amazing. I wasn't a huge Whitesnake fan back in the 80s, but I always liked and respected what Coverdale could do as a vocalist. He hasn't missed a beat, and in fact, he may even sound better than ever. For me, this is Whitesnake's best album. Ever. The perfect blend of hard rock and catchy hooks. I have no doubt it will go down as the best melodic rock album of this year, and it may be the best album I listen to all year. Worth every penny. Great job Whitesnake!

GREAT rocking album....a 'tribute' album of new material
When I heard a new album from Whitesnake was coming, I could have cared less. I loved the 1987 album, but how could David Coverdale, 20 years later, put out a quality product of new material under the WS moniker? I had low expectations, but this album blows the doors off!!

The musicianship is great, David's voice sounds fantastic after all of these years, and the production is reminiscent of the 1987 album. The tunes, while all new, have elements of WS music through the years. Some of the songs remind you of '87, others of Saints and Sinners and Trouble. It is a great mix of songs. If you're a rock and roll fan, and don't even own a single album by WS, this is the one to start on, then work your way back.

Yes, It is good to be bad!
Really good new stuff from stalwart rockers Coverdale & Co. Tight with good riffs, excellent production, and musicianship. Probabbly the loudest studio album I've ever heard- don't need to turn up the speakers.. hits a ton right out of the box. Hope they tour The States.

Whitesnake is back with a vengeance
Whitesanke has never been my favorite band, but I was quite fond of "Slide It In", the self titled "Whitesanke" and "Slip of the Tongue" CDs. I hadn't followed their career since the early 90s, but I heard some real positive feedback for this CD so I listened to some sound bytes and liked what I heard. After purchasing this CD and listening to it a couple times I was blown away by how good it is. This album absolutely rocks, there are a couple of slow tunes, but for the most part the music is absolutely blistering, especially the guitar work of Aldrich and Beach. Time has also been good to David Coverdale's voice. Anyone who is a fan of 80's hard rock music and Whitesnake in particular I think will like this CD.

Another great product from Whitesnakes
What else can I say? As a great fan of whitesnakes, I 100% support the opinion that this is the greatest album that Whitesnakes had produced after 1987 and Slip of the Tongue. Great songs and great musicians as well. For whitesnakes' fans out there I highly recommend you to buy this album as one of your collection. I bet that you won't be regret. For new whitesnakes' fans, listen to this album several times and I'm sure you will find out what sort of rock music that Whitesnakes want to introduce to you. Lastly you will enjoy listening to this album as I enjoyed it too.
