Customer Reviews

Dead End Journey
It's not as bad as Paul thinks, but he's mostly right the only songs that have any life at all are right at the end and he probably didn't endure the banality to listen that far. 'What it takes to win' & 'turn down the world tonight' have a little more gumption than the rest of this feeble offering and just happen to be the ones where the new singer isn't trying to mimic the old singer. 'The Journey' is an instrumental nod to their 70's incarnation and isn't too bad. As for the positive reviews this has recieved from others, I can only imagine they are desperate for Journey to keep going no matter what banal tripe they push out, listen to some classic albums from journey, this just doesn't make the grade. I want Journey to continue but with quality songs,most of these are not, stop pretending to like this if you care about the band and want them to get stronger allowing them to get away with lazy song writting will only lead to their downfall.

A Wasted Journey
I was first in awe of Journey in the 80's and quickly back tracked to their 70's material which although different was of equal quality. I own every release even Dream After Dream which is mostly pointless tunes with only one good song on the Cd. But that is a masterpiece compared to this very depressing opus, it sounds like the band e mailed their individual contributions to the studio and a robot without any feeling slapped them together to a Micro Soft AOR program. I couldn't find anything that raised it's head above the plodding predictable music and insignificant lyrics.
It's a sad day when a Journey album is produced with so little emotion that not a single song will make it to my I Pod. Let's hope they get it together....

A warm welcomem back
After reading reviews of a couple of concerts I had doubts about buying this album, but after reading some of the other reviews here, I decided to take the plunge. All I can say is I'm glad I did. The new tracks on CD1 are of the highest quality, and in my opinion sound better than Journey did back in the late 1970's and early 80's. Arnel Pineda voice may not have the bluesy feel Steve Perry produce on some of the old tracks, but it still sounds like Journey. As per other Journey albums, you have high tempo comercial rock tracks like Never Walk Away and Change for The Better, but you also have the soft ballads of After All These Years and What I Needed

As for CD2, The re-recorded Greatest Hits, all I can say is Steve Who? I prefer them to the originals and they were classics of their time.
