Bat Out of Hell was a fantastic album. It may have been over-the-top, but that was what made it fun. Hang Cool Teddy Bear is just an overblown record that tries to be loud and epic and ends up sounding, very, very silly and ridiculous. The guest appearences change nothing to that, or instead even worsen the problem at hand. My advice is that Meat Loaf had best stop creating new music and continue acting and performing the great tunes he once made. Please, we don't want another Hang Cool Teddy Bear.
