The Circus Was Never Like This

Review Score: (6/10)
I had very high hopes for this album before I bought it. I was very excited after Are You Gonna Go My Way and was looking forward to Circus. I fell in Love with Rock And Roll Is Dead. I liked the title track as well. But the middle 6 or 7 tracks left much to be desired. The Last 2 tracks (In My Life Today and The Resurrection) blew my mind. He blends his spiritual beliefs with his masterful knowledge of lyrics and musical themes so well it almost brought a tear to my eye the first time. Non Kravitz fans may not like this album because it is not the trademark signature Kravitz of Let Love Rule or Are You Gonna Go My Way. This is a nice album, don't get me wrong, but if you're not a serious fan, don't expect to be wowed.
