stop your whinning, and listen

Review Score: (8/10)
First off the album rocks, good guitars, good hooks and vocals fit in really well. Now, as to all the previous complaints that you can't burn a copy for your buddy...too bad. And to the one extremely honest and law abiding person that "only burns to make a back up for himself, because cd's do wear out" yeah right, my five year old can lie better than that. If you follow that premise I am returning my television, printer, car and all the other things that I can't build a copy of and will eventually wear out. Burners, you got away with it for a while, be happy and get over yourselves and enjoy the music and let the band make a living......
