He loves it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another great cd, but sometimes going too radio/pop *by D***W on August 26, 2009* This is another great Skillet album. However, it is their most "radio friendly" album to date. This might put off some listeners. Generally, Skillet always have a mix of heavy, soft, and pop songs on their albums. This album is no different, but the attempt at making the album more radio friendly hurts the album in some ways - mainly, I feel like Ben has to hold back on his guitar playing, especially solos and weird guitar noises (which are cool), and the ballads are more generic-rock-ballad sounding that Skillet has ever sounded before. Even on the heavier songs, it seems like Skillet are holding back a little, making sure that every song is a potential rock or pop radio single.Now, please don't take that criticism to mean that this is a bad album. In fact, I think quite highly of the album and believe that Skillet have never put out a bad album. I get the impression that this is the album aimed at the masses and meant to put Skillet "over the top" in terms of being a well-known rock act.Overall, great album, but as a fan of rock, I would love to have heard more cool guitar work and risk-taking. On other Skillet albums, a lot of the songs will have a part in the middle where you want to say "wow, that was a cool change up" or "man, that little part was awesome." This album has slightly fewer of those moments, probably due to the more pop-rock oriented production, but they are still there. Still, a great album, and I have no major complaints.I prefer the more rock oriented songs, and here are my thoughts:Hero - good lyrics, great song, good use of Jen's vocals.Monster - good lyrics, great song, but I wish the studio version had the cool growl that they do live in concert.Sometimes - cool little guitar riff, one of the better heavier songs.It's not me, it's you - pretty good song. catchy rock riff. cool lyrics in the intro.Awake and Alive - good song, good use of Jen's vocals (or is that Corey's vocals?), cool use of the synthDead Inside - cool riff, pretty good rock song.A lot of the other songs are more ballad oriented or more pop-rockish, and those are good too, but I don't feel like giving them all an individual review. Maybe I'll update this review at a later date.-If you ever have a chance to see Skillet live, do so. They put on a very good live show.-I enjoy the mix of male/female voices in some songs. They don't overuse it, and it adds to their unique sound.-If you like the band, check out their past albums. They have a wide variety of musical styles and influences. There are super-heavy songs (far heavier than anything on Awake) and far softer songs as well. There's grunge songs (the first album) and electronic/industrial influenced albums as well.-Really, I wish they would release a remix album featuring studio remixes similar to the live versions of their songs. "Better Than Drugs," from "Comatose" has a really cool intro live, and "Monster" has a cool deep growling voice saying "Monster" in the middle of the song (neither of the album versions effectively capture the live version greatness of that growl). Some of the songs also seem to have more complicated bass/guitar parts in concert as well, and those bits sound better too. These guys are incredible in concert, and I worry that the influence of producers/record label/radio is taming their sound down a bit too much. I enjoy a few pop-rock songs and ballads from Skillet, but I still wanna hear the band "lay it down" musically on a few of the heavier numbers. I don't even mean make the songs super-heavy; I just like hearing layers of guitar and cool riffs, rather than the "bar chords without lead guitar" sound that's taken over the radio. Thankfully, the band hasn't fallen to that fad, but this album does feel like it has less "jamming." Ben and John can jam! Let them!Despite my apparent concern, still a great album. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great band *by K***Y on March 3, 2025* Great band and songs ## Frequently Bought Together - Awake - Comatose - Unleashed --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://grenada.desertcart.com/products/2212396-awake](https://grenada.desertcart.com/products/2212396-awake) --- *Product available on Desertcart Grenada* *Store origin: GD* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
