Editorial Review: Description: Marking the end of a decade of non-activity, Whitesnake's 'Good To Be Bad' is their 11th studio album. It's a typicallyhard-rocking affair, with band leader David Coverdale delivering unashamedly masculine glam-metal anthems that will delight die-hard fans. As the only original member Coverdale essentially is Whitesnake, but replacement guitarist Doug Aldrich acts as a songwriting collaborator for many of the recordings here. Co-produced by Coverdale, Aldrich and long-time friend of the band Michael McIntyre, 'Good To Be Bad' is exactly what one would expect as a continuation of the Whitesnake legacy, and all the better for it. From the Artist: The new album sounds so unmistakably, typically Whitesnake says David Coverdale: "For me, the heart and soul of Whitesnake remains the same." It's no surprise that Good To Be Bad has turned into more than a terrific album, but is without doubt one of the best releases in this band's long history. "For me, it has all the elements, all the ingredients that I enjoy about Whitesnake", says Coverdale. "It's a very solid, muscular, melodic rock record with a couple of fine ballads, so there's a little tenderness when the moment calls for it, and of course the ballads help balance out the chest beaters! I find it a very complete piece of work, actually. It covers a lot of musical ground, a positive chapter in the Book of Whitesnake." Customer Reviews
Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Absolute corker.Having read a few of the reviews about the album I thought I'd add my bit. This album is one of the best I have bought in a long time - it hasn't left my CD player for several weeks. What you get is what you'd expect, unless you are deluded. Whitesnake are a hard rock act that produce great music to be played loud. If you are looking for experimental jazz fusion in 12/19 time, cutting-edge grimy dubstep or Shakespearian eloquence then you should be looking elsewhere, a fact that some of the 1-star reviewers seem to have overlooked. On the other hand, if you are a fan of 80s rock, heavy riffs, fist-pumping choruses and outstanding guitar-playing, and want an album to stick on in the car at maximum volume on a sunny day, then get this album, fast. ...

I would say it's on a par with the best of their 80's output. Raise your pint of real ale to Mr Coverdale, it's richly deserved. Rating: - Coverdale Shows His ClassGreat to finally have this album.As an old rocker I cant help but love this album.Coverdale still has that amazing voice, and you just wont stop playing this album.It definately grows on you.Went to the live show as well and was amazed just how good a band Coverdale has around him.Treat yourself, go buy it!!! Rating:  - Whitesnake - Good To Be BadI'd given up on the 'Snake in the early nineties as I'd thought musically and (in particular) lyrically they'd stagnated. As a returnee to the band following thier UK tour with Def Leppard & the release of the 30th Anniversary album I thought I give the new album a listen. I wish I hadn't bothered - if, like me, your a fan of the old heavy rock/bluesy Snake - or maybe even the more melodic MOR rock of the later eighties - well, keep those memories as this is poor stuff. I'm surprised DC has put his name to this given the quality of his solo/Page releases. The vast majority of this is metal verging on thrash with a poor set of stereotypical lyrics. As bad as this is, DC's voice isn't what it once was, although it must be said that a bad mix doesn't ... Read More: Rating: - Are You Ready To Rock?This album has some wonderful moments - it is what you'd expect and more from David and his crew. Aldrich does a wonderful job on guitars and I really do not understand what some of the more negative people were expecting. This is a Whitesnake album in every sense of the word, without too much influence from the comtemporary rock scene (and better for it). More albums please Mr. Coverdale... |
