I was anxious to get this album. Vinnie Paul gathered up a few of his friends from Mudvayne and Nothingface and created a NEW super group of metal. Not really a fan of the other bands involved, I automatically had a preconceived notion of the album. And from hearing from other people who got it, they did too. We were all a smidge wrong.

First off this is not Mudvayne, Nothingface, Damageplan and this is notPantera. That’s not saying it isn’t good, however, if that’s what you want it to sound like, save the $15 and go get a different CD. Yeah, some of it sounds like Pantera, some of it sounds like Damageplan. It should. It has a member of those bands. And yeah, you can hear parts of Mudvayne and Nothingface as well. It should, as there are members from those bands, too. This is a supergroup. It has influences from all areas.

While most people are drawn to the title track “Hell Yeah,� I find myself going back to “Alcohaulin' Ass,� which is just a heavy southern rock, feel good type of song. I also find myself drawn to the song “Thank You,� which instantly made me think of Dime. It gave me chills and choked me up. That’s ok, I’m female and that reaction is allowed. I was also really partial to the guitars on the song “Goddamn.�. Of the heavier songs, this was my clear favorite.

I think for fans of any of the bands involved in this project, there is something to enjoy. You need, however, to separate what you expect from those bands and what's in this band. Looking at this to be just like any of them it will disappoint you. Looking at it as a NEW act will be the deal breaker. Yeah, there is a ballad. GET OVER IT. People change and grow with life experiences. Vinnie is still pulling out heavy as hell drum beats. If you don’t believe it, check out the song “Matter of Time,� where they sounded just like a Harley warming up.
