Follow Your Heart is insanely awesome! This album sounds technically a lot simpler than Eclipse, but a lot more fun and groovy. Head-banging. I may go to the show now.

Easy there, fella. They may have produced an album some of you guys like.
Bands like Journey, when they bring NR along, help keep them out of the fair circuit. :mrgreen:

I would say it is a SLIGHTLY stronger album than "Eclipse". I like the best songs on "Eclipse" better than the best songs on SIC. On the other hand, the worst songs on "Eclipse" are worse than the crap ones on SIC.

From what I ve heard its the best NR album in a long long time

Absolutely the best record since Dawn Patrol - much better than Neverland and 7 Wishes (which I LOVE).

I believe in music again. This is PHENOMENAL. I need to buy the Japanese version too - there's a bonus track if I'm not mistaken.

It's fucking great... sweet sounding guitars, harmonies, sing along choruses... all played with a passionate fervor and urgency... These guys still WANT IT.. and it is obvious on the first listen..

I find myself actually WANTING to listen to this as opposed Eclipse... which I listened to 4 times... then shelved...

"Lay it On Me"... its a monster hard rocker...

"Time Of Our Lives"... is gonna be a HUGE hit...

"No Time To Lose Ya".. is classic NR..


a GREAT album just in time for summer...

This is the best album any rock band has put out in 2011 - and I think it's even a little better than my #1 2010 release by First Signal. WOW. If this album had been released in 1985, we're talking a MINIMUM of three top-ten hits, guaranteed.

I've said it before and I'll say it again...to me, Obama has been a turncoat and too far to the left on many issues and too centrist/conservative on others. I think Romney is making a big mistake in pandering to the far right - they're going to vote for him anyway, so why not point out the positives from his Massachusetts plan (which is divergent enough from Obama's to merit debate), and take the moderate "I'm personally-against-abortion-but-I-support-it-in-some-cases" stance favored by most people.

Anyway, I'm all about NR now. Jack is a centrist, maybe a little right of center. Jack Blades in 2012!

this is gonna be a populist vote... the candidate that can win the swing vote will win the election...

Obama won't survive the bad economy... the worse it gets the easier it will be for the Reps to make hay about it and blame Obama.. eventually they'll run on the "give us 4 years and if we don't do the job you can fire us too" motto...


Meanwhile the Fed will bankrupt everything...

Does anyone seriously think Obama can will in 2012?

Might be worth pointing out that should Rick Perry enter and win the nomination and pick Herman Cain for a runing mate, you would see a hell of alot of Perry / Cain signs hanging around. You would have a load of loons all fired up collecting yard signs .

On another related note, I heard NR is revising the lyrics for "You can still rock in a america" for their summer tour.

It now goes "you can still rock in america, Ah yeah s'alright, you just can't work there. "

^^^^^^ FF, your lack of logic never ceases to amaze me. Let me run it down for you.

CFCs and pollution can still be attributing to an OVERALL Climate Change, even with your sunspot story.....and here's why.

That's like a kid telling another that he will graduate college because he is smart enough....then 3 years into his degree comes down with a disease that prohibits him from finishing....and then here comes that other kid saying, 'See, i knew you wouldn't graduate'

Go back to school and learn a thing, or two, before making your claims....it's embarrassing. :lol:

This is exactly why I feel people should just do their best not to pollute and why politicians should not be allowed to take money and raise energy prices over what is clearly hyped. I'm sure humans are beating the shit out of the planet, but I seriously doubt much of the dire predictions will come true. Like I said, if the water rises, move. It's not like people are suddenly going to be drowning. And if it goes down, cash in on the new beachfront property. The climate will do what it's going to do. Go with the flow.
