I'm a little angry about such reviews which repeats always the same senseless arguments like "The Stones sounding always Stones-like. The riffs of Keith Richards are the same as fourty years ago, and the new album sounds like bla bla bla two hundred years ago. What should the band do? Sounding like the Boston Symphony Orchestra, change their music from album to album like a chameleon? Johann Sebastian Bach sounds always like Johann Sebastian Bach, and the great blues men sound in a similar manner during their musical career. What happens if a band changes their style, because the critics want anything new, you can see on the last regular album of Led Zeppelin, it's an orgy of synthi-shit. And Led Zep were one of the greatest blues bands ever. Or hear "Their Satanic", this is also an example of "anything new" ... Great music isn't a form of nostalgia, but only great music ...
