Reviews are Overblown

I should state for the record that I am a big Avenged Sevenfold fan, but these reviews give this album way too much credit.
It it certainly not their best album and in no way one of the greatest of all time as one review stated. In my opinion, the undeserved high praise in these reviews comes from dedicated fans that would buy and give great reviews to anything Avenged Sevenfold released.
Honestly, I feel this album is teetering between fair and average. The album is certainly weak and not what I've come to expect from Avenged Sevenfold. I understand wanting to write longer and more creative songs like 'Save Me' but the second half of the album is slow and outside of the scope of the band.
Certain bands can pull off slower rock songs and outside of 'Seize the Day' Avenged Sevenfold hasn't proven it can. At the last Avenged Sevenfold concert I attended, I don't remember anybody requesting to hear 'Gunslinger' or 'Dear God'. Why? Because they are a rock band and people want to hear the rock.
I would still recommend, barely. Now I'm going to listen to the newest Bullet for my Valentine to get my fix of metal.
What's great about it: $9.99 the first week, still some great guitar licks
What's not so great: Weaker than the last, which was weaker than the last
I would recommend this to a friend!
