Dave's definitely been doing some self reflection on this new album looking at the lyrics.
From Life In Hell
I'm a disease, and I'm addicted to myself
You lie, you steal, and you cheat everyone
It won't be long until you do it again, you'll see
From Killing Time
You're a pathological liar
And your alibi was a lie, it was all just an act
And that's a fact
When you start moving your lips
I know that you're lying
From Célebutante
it's evident you've never met
A mirror you didn't love
Overall, after another listen I kind of like this album. Sure it's no Peace Sell, or RIP but those albums are 30+ years old, even Dave has to evolve in that time. Even songs with somewhat goofy lyrics like Mission To Mars aren't terrible, although the topic doesn't quite fit with the rest of the album. I'm not a huge fan of Ice T but he doesn't do enough on the album for me to hate either the song on the entire album. Same goes for Sammy Hagar's input, actually the Sammy song is quite melodic and tuneful.
