Trouble with The Skull

Old Trouble was LEGENDARY!!!!!!!!!

ALL Trouble is legendary.

Honestly, the only full length that as a whole I find mediocre is Run to the Light.

I like what the Skull are doing. I just don't see the point whatsoever, but as long as everyone is happy.

Would love to just see Eric, Oly, and Ron rejoin Bruce and Rick and do Trouble right.

Kyle is a great vocalist and I love the Distortion Field, but live him fronting the band honestly is not mind blowing. I mean, don't get me wrong, (Somehow) I did live through the Kory Clarke years!!! LOL
 
I personally think that Blackfinger does an amazing job performing Trouble jams from their more psychedelic era.....

The new Skull took a bit to grow on me as it's impossible to listen without comparing it to Trouble's output.

I think it's a solid album.

I would agree with an 8/10 rating.

Saw The Skull perform last February in Grand Rapids and they were amazing. Eric Wagner still sounds fantastic. Bonehawk from Kalamazoo opened the show and were really really good as well. Heavy fuzzy stoner metal and very catchy.
