 After the terrible 'Elements I' and 'II,' the even more disappointing 'Stratovarius,' and the departure of the founder and mastermind Timo Tolkki... the album doesn’t introduce itself in the best way.

 This return is a disaster across the board, zero innovation, less than zero imagination, and the desire to surprise the listener is out of the question.

 It’s a mishmash we are talking about: a whopping EIGHTEEN tracks that make the album feel ENDLESS.

The review expresses disappointment with Green Day's 21st Century Breakdown, criticizing its cold production and uninspired concept.
