Vicious Rumors toned their act down a great deal for their self-titled follow up to "Digital Dictator". The compositional approach remained similar, however, and consequently "Vicious Rumors" sounds like a light version of it's predecessor. Of course this poses the question whether "Digital Dictator" minus visceral force would be any good but, surprisingly, "Vicious Rumors" is quite accomplished.

I can see that this COULD be a very good album if it didn't have as much irrelevant songs. And by irrelevant I mean not very metal-like, easy to listen and easy to forget, not much interesting or complex riffs, and last but not least, not much replay value. I've gotta admit that "On The Edge", "Hellraiser" and "Thrill Of The Hunt" are on the right track. These songs represent the potential of this album and what it could have been. Shame that there isn't more of em

These guys really hit the nail in the head with the opening track "Don't Wait For Me". It has to be one of the most awesome opening tracks and US power metal songs ever. It's so badass it almost gives me a creeps and testosterone overdose with it's screaming guitar solos and punchy riffing. It's so good in fact, it overshadows the rest of the album almost completely. After beginning a record with such a blast the rest just feels kinda meh and boring no matter how good stuff there is, nothing comes even close to its majestic glory.
