I'm going to do a rating system on where this c.d. will end up in my household..
1 Star.. Straight to Ebay.
2 Stars... It will sit on my "older" c.d. rack to collect dust.
3 Stars.... It will stay in my "listen to rack" to go through every once in a while.
4 Stars.... It will be in my computer while I'm working.
5 Stars.. It will be cranking through the house.. and car.. my girlfriend will have to get used to it..


ERIC MARTIN
DESTROY ALL MONSTERS

By D.J. Spidey

Review: I've always been a fan of Eric's from the Mr.Big days up to the solo stuff.. and the new c.d. is as true to Eric's style as his past efforts.. along with a few twists of experimental sounds with the Rasta feel of "I Can Die Now" while still having the catchy pop rock songs of "Kansas", and "What's the Worst that Can Happen".. although I'm still partial to Eric's balled writing skills.. so I really like "Your Too Good For Him". Fans of Eric Martin will not be disappointed, but as far as new fans.. this one just isn't blowing me out of the water as Goin' Sane I thought caught my attention a little more.. the production is great, and the song writing is right on.. it just doesn't have that punch that I know he can deliver.

Favorite Song(s): I like the guitar sound in "I Woke Up Too Late".. has a great build up.. "What If" is a cool rocker too... "Burning In My Mind" another good one....

Least favorite song: "Kansas" Isn't thrilling me.. "Living in Black & White" drags..

Booklet: N/A promo only.. Pretty cool cover though.. like the sharks in the air..
