Aware of the argument for this album being bad due to its glossy production and its departure from "Reinventing Axl Rose"'s style. However, this album was the soundtrack to my sophomore and I couldn't get enough of it. Personally I feel that the only bad song is "Suffocation". I would honestly rate it a 4.5 but I gave it a 5 in attempt to boost its average. |

Underrated, lost gem from from the mid-80s. One of the first rock 'supergroups' of all time, and quite a transitional album from 70s hard rock to 80s arena rock. Highlights include the 1-2 opening tracks of "Top of the Rock" and "Missing You"?two early indicators of Hagar's imminent future tenure in Van Halen?a cover of Procol Harum's ballad "Whiter Shade of Pale", and the penultimate track "He Will Understand", which contains one of the most interesting riff's I've ever heard. |

I hardly say this about music, but I sincerely think people who rate this highly trying damn hard to like this. Nothing about this record has aged well, the purposeful lo-fidelity production, the singer's creepy and very illegal obsession with Anne Frank, and the repulsive, grating vocasl. |

The remixing/remastering is incredible. It brings a rawer presentation of Ten, something the band has always regretted; overproducing their debut. Almost every single track sounds better with this stripped down mix. It definitely breathed new life into an album that I've heard 1,000 times. |

Not the same PBC but not bad either. Production is great. Guitar, bass and drum tones are tight. Jimmy's vocals are different but genuinely not bad. I'm under the impression the album was written to be sung like Sometimes Things Just Disappear, but the gruffness was no longer there, replaced with clarity and a higher range. |

Would be "Classic" for the sheer energy, emotion, and songwriting, but the production causes it to fall slightly shy.rThe guitar tracks sound "spongy", the vocals are buried on many tracks, and the album comes off as unfinished in spots, such as the closer "Rumors Of My Demise..." which is anthemic yet sounds somewhat unfinished based on its complete lack of lead guitar and lack of interesting bass lines. |

wtf was I thinking not 5'ing this? This is one of the best albums of all time, and if THAT doesn't make it a solid 5, idk what does. Nothing on here is bad, not even "Lullaby", which is probably the one I'm most inclined to skip. |
