Yea Steve Stevens is back, and from what I hear he's kickin major ass! I gotta pick up this cd myself.

Steve Stevens is indeed in the line-up. Just curious, do you know the name of the tune their playing? If it's Rat Race, it is a KICKASS tune. He did a vh1 or mtv unplugged show a few years ago, and it was very well received. It looks like he incorporated a lot more clean and acoustic work into this album. Plastic Jesus, is one of those tunes and it's really incredible.

The tune was Scream...I think.

Scream is one of 3 that, if I had to guess, were going to get released. Very reminiscent of Rebel Yell. VH1.com always has 30 seconds of each tune from just about any album...

Too bad they don't play Rat Race long enough to get into it's heavy part...

I wouldn't go by anything on the vh1 site, every snipet has been compressed or something, the quality is horrible, nothing like the cd.
