Mudvayne definitely up the ante with this one, after their last album I'd lost most of my hope for this band to release anything great again. While this album does have it strengths it also has weaknesses. Fans of Mudvayne won't be letdown though. I noticed the first half was much more enjoyable than the 2nd half for me

It's safe to say that Mudvayne have finally redeemed themselves with this release. After the mediocre "Lost and Found", absolutely awful compilation album "By The People, For The People" and dismal "The New Game," Mudvayne's future was looking pretty fucking bleak. This release, however, is a welcome return to form of sorts and will no doubt please any hardcore fans, as well as the many - and rightfully so - skeptics of the band. Quite the welcome surprise.

Thank goodness; Mudvayne recovered from the depths of mediocrity. Mudvayne decided to step out of their generic comfort zone and start experimenting again and, because of this, their self-titled stomps all over most of "Lost and Found" and literally all of "The New Game." Some of these songs are extremely reminiscent of their "L.D. 50" days with varying time signatures, interesting song structures, and sheer energy. Also, "1000 Mile Journey" and "Closer" can be considered some of Mudvayne's best songs. So if you're a fan of old Mudvayne, chances are you won't be disappointed by "Mudvayne."

Heavy metal quartet Mudvayne's fifth studio album, which is eponymous, is a largely solid outing. Following a shallow, unappealing, and laughable full-length in 2008's The New Game, Mudvayne is such a godsend compared to its lousy predecessor. Though it doesn't actually come close to going toe-to-toe with L.D. 50 or this band's sophomore affair, The End of All Things to Come, the LP provides a couple moments that might make one say otherwise. It manages to address many of the issues that plagued The New Game rather well, and while Mudvayne isn't always a fantastic or coherent listen ("Scream With Me," "Closer," and "Heard It All Before" are hands down the worst tracks on display), this Peoria, Illinois-based act breaks more cinderblocks than they do their own essence here. Angel recommends: "1000 Mile Journey," "I Can't Wait," "Beyond the Pale," "Out to Pasture," and "Dead Inside".

just continuously smearing their painful attempts to regain what was a blast from a debut, to rehashing concepts that never had any potential of lasting replay value to ever begin with.

I took another listen and found the album considerably more entertaining the second time around. Perhaps a third listen will boost my rating further.

It's not bold, it's not ambitious and still contains a fair amount of filler, but with this new release Mudvayne have proven that they are not entirely out of ideas. There's still gold in the hills and Mudvayne continue to drill for it, and with this album it seems they might still be in reach of hitting paydirt

This is not mudvayne's work. This album was just down right dissapointing. It wa snothing like "The End of All Things to Come" like Mudvayne said it was going to be, but that's the producers faults,they have most of the power.

A shadow of the band that dropped LD50. A couple of passable moments, though largely forgettable. Nice to see some prominent bass lines again. Lyrically abysmal.

It seems to be lacking hooks and to me its kind of boring. I would say its worth a download but I wouldn't pay for it.

Mudvayne has been trying to titter totter all their fans, with accessible mainstream music, heavy nu-metal bashings, and progressive grooves. This is shown as a balance of all the music, there's plenty of heavy songs ("Can't Wait", and "Beautiful and Strange"), however at the same time they have plenty of radio craving filler songs ("Scream with Me"), and also some more progressive songs ("Dead Inside"). Now about a good half of the album is filler, and it happens to get old quicker then past material, but it's still a step in the right direction and away from the vomit inducing "New Game".
