This album was actually much better than I imagined it would be. Never really that big on the Something Wicked trilogy, and this double album continuation didn't hold my interest. But, with the return of Matt Barlow (replacing Tim "Ripper" Owens, who has the worst stage presence of any lead singer I think I've ever seen), I figured I'd give it a shot, since he is generally pretty awesome. And he certainly does a good job on this album!

3.0/5 - Good. Not the best, but certainly better than Part 1. Great riffs as always, and the vocals are pretty great too.
