I think you all are taking this the wrong way...
if it is so mainstream and he is doing it to sell albums.... then why does no one like it??
it cant be mainstream if everyone is hating on it... he speaks really passionatly about where he went with his new album.... i just recently saw his show in toronto here... and it was amazing...
I was weary of the new album... but the songs live really fit Shadows repetoire, and if you follow Shadow outside of his album releases, you will know that he has constantly been a part of the scene in which he is highlighting mostly on his new album... the bottom line is, this is what HE likes... why should he cater to what his fans "expect"?
all I know is those new songs were wicked live.
Shadow is the best.
