| Great album, even better than their debut. "Awake" is an amazing song. I also really enjoy "Sick of Life," "Trippin'" and "Spiral." |

| Godsmack's sophomore effort, which in my mind is quite solid. Given a few times, you can notice a shift in the mood this album takes. It is a darker and angrier album than Godsmack, and with good reason- recording this album on the road, add a little drugs and rock and roll, and here is Awake. Personally, Awake remains to this day as my favorite Godsmack album. Some things that could've been cut out was how many times Sully sings "gotta get back, back on track, get off of my back" in Bad Magick, and by putting Goin' Down on Godsmack- it fits the vibe of the debut better than the cathartic elements that compose Awake. Even though Sick of Life and Awake were used relentlessly by the US Navy in recruiting commercials, they are good singles, and I still don't mind hearing them. The guitar work by Tony Rombola is particularly strong in Trippin' citing Godsmack's dedication to groove. Bad Magick, Sick of Life, Goin Down, The Spiral and Vampires are also prime examples of this. As stated, this was a very critical time in the lives of the men of Godsmack, and the anger that is felt in the music is the byproduct. Godsmack continued every album hereafter to hit a heavier vein, and after becoming well acquainted with Alice in Chains over the years, I still don't get what people are griping about. Maybe a tad bit in the vocal delivery, and that is it. Overall, this cd is highly recommended, and if you haven't yet, go and buy it now. You'll probably end up buying the other albums in their library. |

Godsmack's Awake - A Solid Effort
Submitted on: 2007-10-16 |

'Awake' released in early 2000 was an instant success with its hit song 'Awake'. The song garnered fabulous reviews and got heaps of radio play. Godsmack is at their best when they stick with their core hard rock sound. This album is full of the above. If you are a fair dinkum Godsmack fan, you will fancy this album and add it to your collection. As I have.
Whilst this isn't the band's best album, it is a solid performance with hard hitting beats like 'Sick Of Life' and the driving force of 'Bad Magick'. The best track in this release is 'Vampires' that went on to be on several Vampire shows and movies and even getting a spot on 'Buffy: The Vampire Slayer'.
I was a fan from the very first time of listening to this great easy to rock to album that is a must for any rock party. |

Awake to Hate

Godsmack has not made many albums compared to other artist, like Nine Inch Nails or Rob Zombie, but I really think thats what makes almost all of their albums interesting and fun. This is my personal favorite. The song Sick of Life is something I can really relate to and describes how I feel most of the time. Awake is a song I really would'nt listen to unless I'm in a really good mood. Greed is song that has lyrics that are powerful, but somewhat slow. Bad Magick and Goin down are not songs on the album I listen to often, but they are sort of catchy. Mistakes is another song I like and can listen to frequently. Trippin' is very similar to Mistakes, except that the intro is not as powerful and the vocals are more heavier. The other songs I have not heard because I don't have the CD, but instead an Mp3, but I'm sure there somewhat decent.
