crue's best ever Jan 03, 2009 This is a stunning work by the only band that could have created it - a hard rock tour de force concept album that describes the band's early years and the Sunset Strip scene. I challenge any band to match the Grammy nominated title song for sheer power and intensity and then follow it with the sneering masterpiece "MF Of The Year." A magnificent album, easily the best of their storied career.
Best Motley in Years Dec 20, 2008 Bought this after seeing Crue Fest. This is the best Motley CD in years. Good hooks, and really rocks. For the Motley fan, must buy.

Motley returns stronger than before.... Nov 02, 2008 'Saints of Los Angeles' is definitely Motley Crue's strongest effort to date (next to the self-titled album) but also encompasses some of the spirit of the old & perhaps the Crue most fans want via 'Dr. Feelgood'/'Girls Girls Girls.' Truly a great balance of bringing the old Crue with a new & heavy direction, not to mention the production is the best of any Motley album & the band has never sounded tighter. Cheers boys!

A More Mature Motley, But Still A Filthy Crue Oct 30, 2008 Motley Crue's "Saints of Los Angeles" joins a growing list of new material from prominent hard rock, hairband, and metal acts from the 70's, 80's and early 90's. Whitesnake, AC/DC, Def Leppard and Alice Cooper are just a few of the other acts on that list. What's really amazing about all of them is that sales of these albums have been excellent and the music sounds great. It proves that some things do get better with age.
With "Saints," the Crue offers up tunes that reflect on their wild past (especially the first half of the album), their ever-present resistance to authority and the fact that even though they've aged a bit, they can still out-rock the majority of today's so-called hard rock bands.
Vince Neil's vocals have matured to a solid level. While the squeals and squeaks are still around, they have a much more manly tone to them. Nikki Sixx' bass sounds excellent. Tommy Lee keeps everything moving at a good pace and Mick Mars is still one of the greatest guitar slingers in the business.
The title track's message is obvious: We came, we saw, we rocked and we still rock. Show us some respect. Filthy rockers include "White Trash Circus" and "This Ain't A Love Song." "Face Down In The Dirt" is a pounder that kicks the album into gear. Other solid tunes include "MFer of the Year," "The Animal In Me," "Just Another Psycho" and "Goin' Out Swingin'."
If there are any shortcomings on this album, it's the fact that some of the reflections on the band's wild past can get tiresome. "Down At The Whisky," while a good tune, gets lyrically bogged by this. Granted, the Crue was never known for their brilliant lyrics, but Nikki Sixx has written much better material than this.
Overall, "Saints of Los Angeles" proves that some rockers get better (or at least sound tighter) with age. "Dr. Feelgood" and the oft-forgotten John Corabi-fronted "Motley Crue" album are the best albums by the Crue in my opinino, but "Saints" definitely deserves a spot somewhere around "Girls, Girls, Girls"
If you grew up on Motley, like I did, I highly recommend this album. It will feed your hunger for hair/hard rock. If your knowledge of hard rock begins with groups born after the grunge era, I suggest you pick this up to see how much fun rock was before Nirvana and company killed it.
Highly recommended.

Best Since Dr. Feelgood! Oct 28, 2008 This is a very solid new effort from the re-energized Motley Crue. This new cd, featuring all four original members (Neil, Lee, Sixx, and Mars)is an honest straightforward rock album with solid catchy grooves. Vince Neil's voice has truly never sounded better, and the band has terrific chemistry on this sleazy expose of LA rock life. Saints of Los Angeles, and White Trash Circus are my picks for standout tracks, but there really isn't a bad track on the album. This is without question the best, most true to form cd the band has released since Dr. Feelgood. Fans of early Crue will not be disappoiinted, and the band sounds fresh enough for modern rock fans as well.
